Procrastination is Me. Not Cool yo.

I've been wanting to update but time doesn't permit. There's so much to do in the office as well as at home. Workloads and stay-backs for projects has taken its toll on me. Plus, I have enrolled myself in my third French class. Hopefully this time works. hehe Ok, recently I made a daily schedule / planner that I been procrastinating since forever and thank god now its on my fridge door. Although it has been there since early last week, I still can't follow the list as the workload is shitty crazy and the weather is always wet. Well, out of 5 days, I only managed to get 2 days to follow my routine. That's just how crazy my life is. So much of preparing a schedule aight? hehe. But the thing I like most about it is the how the schedule look like. I made it so colorful by coloring between the lines; just like the primary school days. I was so excited to color as I bought a new set of 48 color pencils while browsing at the stationary section at Borders last week. (I can be childish at times but wth it's fun). Recently, I also started a new routine of swimming and so far, I find it quite enjoyable. Although the last time I went swimming was maybe 8 years back, but I still find it exciting and challenging to do laps.

Oh btw, my art room in maybe 65% done. It's not that awesome but 'boleh tahan' la. I think it's a good start. I'm gonna design the room and make it as cozy as possible. Some wall deco, carpet, cushion and throw rugs would be good. Pics will be uploaded soon. Tatas!

Baking & cake decorating.

~**Bake Me A Wish**~

Just like my mother, baking is one of my passion. Ever since I was little, Mak thought us girls (my sis & I) how to bake delicious pastries, pretty cakes & yummy crunchy cookies for tea time and parties. In our family, baking and cooking is like a family tradition. My late grandma makes the best Halwa Maskat, kuih bangkit & pulut kacau of all time where else my mother bake the best cheesecake and chocolate cake ever. She's even taking orders from people until now. ;)

I do bake but not that often. I used to bake in Melbourne for occasions like birthdays and whatnot. (Thank god for build in oven at home.) Well, its not about eating it that much but sometimes I do it for fun. Just to pass the time and to fix my cravings. Its even better if you get your loved ones to help you with it. Since I moved to KL, every time I walk into the kitchen, it's as though the oven is waving & calling me.."Feeeshhhaaaa, useee me!..Try me.." hahaha *(wow so dramatic) So, it made me so eager to look for classes on fondant cakes since it's so famous now.And I've always wanted to learn how to bake one. Lucky me, I found a place that teaches you how to decorate a fondant cake - (figurine) on the net. (Google work wonders). I called up to book for a place and that very weekend I attended the class. It was fun and interesting. For those who are interested, I suggest you to attend a beginners class like mine as a start before going for others eg:wedding 3-tier, handbag, etc.
Here are some photos of me and my bffeuteot during the class and our cute cake!


During the first week of August, I baked my first rainbow cake for my bffeuteot's birthday. I thought it was hard and complicated to bake this cake but actually it's not. All you need is patience and voila, its ready. What I really like about this cake is the bright colors and how fun & exciting when you cut into pieces for the guests to eat. Oh la la, kids will love it! Oh btw, I bought the wrong sugar for the icing. It was already midnight, I was so lazy to drive out to get icing sugar. So, I just use the normal sugar for the icing. It doesn't turn out perfectly but not to worry it was good. I'm not gonna complain. :)
Here are some photos during the process and the outcome of it.

Daybed Hunt

I've been crazy about daybeds ever since my last trip to PD. I think if I have a daybed, my huge empty room would look lively and cozy sikit. Lets check out some cool photos that I found while browsing. Cool innit?
