yeah random.

like today i've finally decided to make some chocolate chip cookies of Nigella Lawson's recipe as seen on Nigella Express. I TOTALLY LOVE HER SHOWS OKAY! even though some said the way she did her shows are like food porn because she loves to go i LOVE~ but it's nice, and going the express way means that i can make some of her dishes more easily because the fridge and pantry are mainly asian foods.

oh i love JAMIE OLIVER and especially BOB BLUMER too. (: curtis stone and anthony bourdain are not exactly my cup of tea. HA.

anyway. nigella decrees that to bake for 80mins, but since i've halved all the portions, i should probably half the baking time too. as a result, my first batch tasted kinda flaky (probably because i've used some granulated sugar) and well, a bit burnt. dunno how my second batch will be like.

nevermind. next time i shall try normal cookies!

i'm in such a chionging-to-finish driving mood now. talked about driving with jiahao4 and yongbiao yesterday because we are like the only three among other people (guojie dean weide zhikai jiahao2) who have learned driving. yongbiao's having his driving test 20dec while jiahao4 got his military licence. how cool.

if i can finish 27-28 today i should be able to do lesson 33 on 2dec, provided i wouldn't get >18 points deducted as i drive along some test routes at night. you know i still do silly things like clutching in when i turn (because need to change down the gear) and i still stall the engine sometimes! i'm more afraid when i drive on the road though, like today i'll probably do lane changing in heavy traffic (3.20-5.20pm is probably like high peak!) OMG.

vertical parking is easy, but what happens after getting the licence? me and yongbiao talked about it yesterday and i suggested that to get our friends out and be A pole (the one that will disappear-appear-disappear as we reverse). jokes.

then i was at facebook just now and saw some pictures at the news feed page. i was surprised to see the connection of the two friends i've known, so i went to see the pictures. then i went to their blogs. and i realised i would still like to see my dearest branded good. it's been so long since graduation and actually you don't look very goodlooking but i would still grin as i looked through your latest outfield exercise photos. :D

i've started applying the gel on my swollen upper arms and elbows yesterdy but they still looked swollen! SADD. ):

my driving instructor for today's so funny! he would keep telling me to smile and don't be so serious, offer me sweets and even asked me why i don't have a boyfriend! LOL. he's like how can you say that don't have means don't have? haha. it's the most relaxed lesson i had so far, other than the part that it started raining SO HEAVILY at around 5. ong qing liang now i can understand how you felt that fateful night!!
