BBC's forecast finally realised when it snowed for the first time early yesterday morning. They had been saying that it would snow since thurs but it just turned out to be icy icy temperatures without any flurry flakes..  And when my facebook homepage was full of snow photos and updates, i drew my blinds and was actually delighted to see the fields and pathways covered with snow! U didn get me wrong, it's true that i do hv a dread for snow, but thinking it on a bright note, if it snows early, it would end early too.. And most probably next term i would just be stuck in snow for a month or less..

And SO, as laid out on my fb, i had my first baking therapy yesterday.. The limelight for the day: The coffee-walnut-apple-cake! Of course the main credit has to go to my sifu, miss roycee!! During the session, she was like a mummy preparing her daughter for school :D

But of course it's actually nicee! In fact, we had a rescue operation which added to the beauty of the masterpiece when its top was burnt =)

I'd just say that it was lovely!
But i hate the 'image resizing' function of blogger though!

成事在人，谋事在天，其实，我挺讨厌被命运主宰的那一刻。

观看了这场决赛，稍懂羽球的人也知道李林都在这场比赛呈献出了他们毕生的精髓。甚至有很多球点，都是多拍铸成的。伟伟输得一点都不耻辱。如果他真的是心理素质不佳，是水货，就像两年前的奥运会一样，早在第二局就输了；不过他还是沉住了气，顶着压力拿下第二局。我不否认，伟伟实力还差林丹一点点，尤其是在决胜局时体力透支，有心无力。但伟伟确实已尽了力，冠军也只有一个。

林丹也体现了大师风度，称赞伟伟表现出色。英雄识英雄，我也相信他的发表是发自内心，因为这场比赛一点也不轻松。我们应该为伟伟屈而不挠的精神打气，也期待他早日走出悲愤。置身其中，我也许早已挂拍，要知道这种“二奶”命的纠缠，并非每个人所能承受的。

尽管如此，今早看到一个小学朋友的status, 不禁有感而发：“既生伟，何生丹”。

It has been two lovely weeks with awesome food! Had a fabulous dinner in coniston home yesterday nite, cooked by pui yee's friend, Vicky, a girl whose hand can play great pieces on piano and cook extremely delicious dishes! The day b4 we had social for deepavali + hari raya haji, nasi lemak's served, complemented with lamb, fried chicken and an indian dessert which tasted like ice-cream!!

And last week, we've finally realised our plan to hv buffet sushi in birmingham! Though it's already Week 6. When we first arrived woktastic, i recalled that this is also the same route to NIA, where the annual All England Badminton Championship is held.. All the surprises and delight meeting wei wei came into light immediately.. ^^ 

 

 

The variety of sushi served wasnt very very impressive though, but it includes rice, noodles, desserts, pudding, which compensates for that.. Hungry enough, we had at least 10 plates each! =))  

  



Siew yen, who's not very very fond of sushi, opted to go for a bento box (pic above) instead.. Btw, it's just 6 pounds including the lunchbox, miso soup and something else (which obviously i've forgotten, sorrriee)..

The scenario which is quite common after every buffet is where we (or at least me) gets BLOATED! Moreover, since we paid thru to come over here, we r not definitely missing the opportunity to walk around and snap some lovely photos.. Not forgetting tis is the first time siew yen the newbie's been to birm..

Welcome, welcome back to the land of happiness, surprises, merry, humour, memory of pinkiecloud/ yunyun/ june/ littlepinkie/ princess or whatever u've known me as! Nonetheless, im bringing along with me a new pseudonym --> whysquare, which means y2 =) So dont ask me why isnt it 'whyrectangle', hehe..

So yes, after 3 months,
IM BACK BLOGGIN! Just a brief note on some NEW kinky little things u may find here:
1) Posts are now labelled.
2) There's a traffic feed which can scarily track where u are.
3) Pinkie cut her hair but is still pinkie!

Hope u ll enjoy reading little rantings here. Stay tuned and pop in when u miss me! :D

But the unique thing really, is that everything seems to be for the last time, last year. I sort of have a 'i cant wait to graduate' as well as the 'oh no, i still wana study' feeling.. I do wish that im well-informed of what's ahead of me now so that i can just enjoy my final year. Really, the stress of worrying about the future is just annoying, coupled with there is a lot at stake this year, but I guess it's just growing up and mapping a career trajectory, so i might as well try to get use to it!

Well, enough of mature, depressing finalist talk!

Despite the ups and downs, i've basically settled down. I've been catching up with school work (still working on it!), making new friends, cooking for meals, staying overnights in coniston, having skype dates on numerous afternoons which make me laugh, weekends outing, watching dramas at nite..

VIP 2: Siew yen - After working as a tax consultant in one of the Big4 for years, our manager decided to take a year off work and destiny has brought her to us! The main chef and big sister for us now, i would say..

孤独，不一定不快乐；

得到，不一定能长久；

失去，不一定不再拥有。

与所有单身的朋友共勉之。。。
