Things are never what they seem

I woke up this morning, to the incessant noise Lacey was making downstairs. I could have slept a little longer. I looked around me, and i thought something seemed odd. I could see! 'Holy cow!!' i thought, its a miracle!! I've got my eyesight back. My fairy godmother must have made a visit the night before and restored my eyesight. What a miracle! I've got to call the press.

I guess I tend to be an optimist in the mornings. haha. Truth of the matter is, after a few minutes with my 'restored' eyesight, realization finally dawned on me. My eyes were dry, tired and itchy. I forgot to take out my contacts before i went to bed last night! I got home from dinner, and got ready for bed, intending to read the remaining 15 pages of my Harry Potter 7. I was so caught up with the story that i went to bed straight after, not even realizing i still have my contacts on!! silly me.

Oh, and HP7 was good by the way. yea yea, my devoted boyfriend thinks I'm a nerd for being a fan but you can't blame me cause I've been reading it since I was 14. I won't spoil it the story here for you alright. HP7 had parts which nearly made me cry, parts which made me cheer on Harry, parts which made me grip the edge of my seat with anticipation and gasp in surprise. JK Rowling, you are good but don't go writing anymore stories, you're getting so rich its just obscene and downright rude.

Wok, Mince and 2 Eggs.

So the Mum has decided to take off for 2 weeks to Brisbane, for a little holiday and to check up on Liedeeuh. (The last i heard from the Mum it was freezing in the land of Oz.) Thus leaving me with ms.ShugarPrincess, Dad and Lacey. This only means one thing. I have to figure out what the rest of us will eat for dinner or we'll survive purely on take outs and I don't wanna turn into a big lump of fat after 2 weeks. Let me tell you, figuring out what to cook for other people day after day is no easy task. I salute you, cooks & mothers everywhere. And i don't even wanna think about what we should do when all the food runs out from the fridge. I refuse to contemplate even going into the filthy wet market, picking my cuts of meat and fish. I'm really not mature enough for that yet. If i need raw produce there's Tesco, or Giant. So for tonight i have decided to make some nice soft Egg Custard with bits of yummy mince pork in it. YuM! I've been asking around and reading it up on the net, how people cook it. I'm surprised there are several variations to the simple dish. Some like their mince fried before steaming it, some just dump the mince, raw into the egg, some have specific measurements for the amount of water to add in with the eggs, some have salted egg in their recipe, others put bits of century egg into it. The possibilities are endless! So wish me luck as i try to dish out some steamed egg custard for dinner tonight!!

Of course, i'm not just cooking this one dish for dinner, dinner will be with some fried veggies and some seafood tofu. I just hope i don't have to do the washing up at the end as well. Au revoir!

Something caught my eye this morning.

Dear devoted boyfriend,
You know how I've always said i want 2 poodles as our children instead of having real human kids? Ahuh, and you've agreed to that arrangement so no buts. And then i changed my mind and wanted 1 poodle and 1 Shiba Inu? Well, just to let you know. I've changed my mind again, (a girl has to have options ) and this time, can i please please have 1 poodle and 1 Akita? You've got to say yes bebe, cause you just can't say 'no' to a face like this:

My sister the cheerleader

I know I should have blogged about this a few lifetimes ago. But then again, procrastinator is my middle name. Unlike liedeeuh who put up a post almost the day after cheer'07, I have to wait til now to talk about it. haha. Not like its too late since these cheerleaders are still riding on their waves of glory. (And the waves just keep on coming.) I got a request from ms.shugarprincess to do up a Dynamitez page for the DJ yearbook. It was a rather last minute request, and no doubt she's inherited some of my 'procrastinator' genes. *sigh* Lucky me, I've got next to zero workload at the office. So i was able to do up this page at work. So here's a visual of the page, its about 98% done. Enjoy. Tell me what you think.

And then there's this one and that...

Okay, here we go girls. I figured if i have to make a decision on the ultimate wedding dress in the not too far future. I should probably study and recognize the different cuts they have available. Please don't put me in a full ball gown dress with puffy sleeves, choking of lace & beads with a mosquito net on my face. Thats all I'm asking. So here are the current trends for bridal wear according to www.instyleweddings.com

I haven't got a favorite cut picked out yet. But i know for sure i am not going down that aisle in a full ball gown dress. Seriously.

I was doing my daily rounds on the internet today. Its become a habit of mine to go through a few of my favorite sites before i settle down for work. And guess what i found! All together now: Awwwwww!!

Do you see what i see? This little long-coated chihuahua, aptly named "Heart-kun" was born May 18 2007 to Emiko Sakurada from Odate, northern Japan. He's so cool he came with his own heart shaped marking! You can also catch a little clip of him on you tube. Absolutely adorable.

How i spent my morning at work: customizing my blog with these cute emoticons!

Aren't they adorable? I've spent a few hours going through these trashy emoticon sites just to pick out a few nice ones. I know this blog is just a few steps away from being forgotten and thrown away in cyberspace. Don't worry. I'll think of something to write about. In fact i've got a bunch of stuff to write about. I'm just not in the mood for it. Maybe i need a kick in the ass to jump start myself.
