emotionz-> eXhauStEd...
well.. sorry to consistent readers.. prob juz a few... but v sorry for taking so long to update.. EsP Twin... but hear my side of the story n u'll under stand why i have been missing in action online..
since last week we decided to open a stall on teachers day and bake cheesecakes and cookies.. WHOA.. i got an extremely packed schedule.. lotza things happened.. good and bad.. lessons learnt.. more experience gained.. and increasing knowledge of our fellow classmates.. bonded more pple closer together.. view each other at our worst form of state...
fridae we went to char's hse to bake cookies.. twin n imran and char n sarah and me! it was pretty fun! egg on imrans head.. hmz.. if ur readin this im or char.. was the eggs good for hair? hahaz.. and the refreshment for char.. hahaz.. baked abt 150 cookies.. of there was more but it was in our stomach.. Buddy, buddy junior and Sandman was juz so adorable!! in case u dun know.. they are chars dog n puppies!! hahaz the puppies are 3 mth old and they are the same size and weight as my 3 YEARS old SnaFfEe! but they are juz so cute! the kinda bulldogs who lies in the thick white blanket and u cannot differentiate the two! hahaz.. shih tzu, westie, bulldogs and golden retrievers are my fav kinda dogs!! reached home quite late as sarah n i were at chomp chomp for dinner! YuMmY!!
saturdae was an all so tiring day over at jaimes hse.. cheesecakes cheesecakes n more cheesecakes.. baked abt 6 there.. n mixed abt 7 mixture.. went to sarah's hse to drop the cake.. WHOAZ! sarah hse is simple and nice! sweet and warm! n the tinge of jasmine flower smell juz relax the tired mind! n reached home.. like.. 12? or was it later?! cant remember.. n stayed up to do the teachers day photoz.. everything was in a frenzy as we looked for more pple to help with bakin on sundae as its almost impossible to bake 8 cakes on sundae at imran's hse alone! luckily char our saviour cld open up her hse!
lesson learnt: do not overestimate. its better to underestimate den to overestimate and panic, causing lotza trouble much later.
Sunday.. morn met sarah n serene at 8.15.. serene helped to keep 2 cakes.. and sarah plus me went to do sum shoppin.. n jaimes called to say abt a spoilt cake so we ended up back at sarahs hse.. saw her mom! manz!! like colour photocopied version of each other!! so similar!! hahaz.. and equally nice + holy + all the good things!! wahz!! IMPRESSED! her family is filled with warmth... WhOa! she dropped us back at my hse and got my mom to helped us save a cake! which she eventually did... mom RaWks at baking/cooking! den sarah n me head to chars hse to bake more cake.. yayz! i learnt how to baked a cheesecake! and cookies too!
at chars hse.. everythign was so tiringly comical. We prep the batter.. n sarah plus char had to cycle to n fro frm char hse to cherlyn to borrow oven.. and our initial plan for studies ( we even cleared a space for studying.. but it was swiftly taken over by bakin stuff and our books? off to a rack at sum corner) soiled by bakery! and even her brother and sister helped us! she sure haf super adorable siblings.. and they revealed to me sum "secrets" abt her!! HAHAHHAHAZ.. oh no hope char doesnt read this.. hahhahhaz.. n char's father is rather comical too!
Well.. the climax of sunday.. when the phone call came and Char went *BEEP*... news arrived. "ayan smahed a cake".. which turned from a shocking, disbelief, upsetting, worried and chaos to a break of laughter, a form of joke... but manz.. its funny how char, sarah and i was so tired and irritated that we were freakin sarcastic.. and maybe even bitchy.. hahaz.. pple at their worst is when they are tired and sumthing sparks everyting off to make them lose tolerance. we WerE at our WorSt.
Lesson learnt: always make sure u explain things out and warn abt the responsibility when 1 handles sumthing.. every little procedure is impt. teamwork is impt and a necessity. trust is required. there is a limit to every1 tolerance.
monday.. sorting out stuff... doing last min logistics.. off to eat chicken chop.. prepared the teachers day prez from class (photo frames with our thumbprints)... the phonecall dat caused the heart to ache.. the thought that effort is not appreciated.. how heart breaking.. the days flew by me juz like that..
lesson learnt: reasoning is a better solution den argument. always think abt possibilities of others reaction.
n the big day for all the prep arrived.. morn delivering cake.. the fantastic concert! the lcs did a great job in their dance! really rawkz! and the bball games with mr isaac lim.. who is simply marvellous at bball.. cut dunno how many pple n shooto! hahaz.. n playing against coach and mr fahy was ultimate stress but fun! weak ankle that cldnt hang on.. dashign to and fro.. need to build up weak stamina.. the winning of the game.. serene shot.. jas shot.. WHOAZ... our never say die spirit to defend! u all rawk pple! i love my class.. cakes sold out... cookies too! i love the enthusiasm..!
lesson learnt: great teamwork and every1's help will produce great result. not every1 might provide the same level of help, but every little bit counts.
in a team, there are always those who give all out, the responsibly, the leader. the slack/joker, those who tried but not as much achievements, and the dont care. appreciate every member, for those who lead will help members reach nearer to the goal, the responsible will make sure things are handled, the slack/joker will ease the tension, the pple who tried allow the rest to be motivated, the dont care make us appreciate our leader and the others even more. the importance of every1.
every individual haf their own little set of problems. like what mr lim said, when we are poor, we dream and fantasize, but when we are rich, we become lazy and forget abt the poor. the tunnel experience further bond our class together. i love pe lessons more n more. dirty experience but love it all the same. another time on the wall.. i did it without help now. achievement. many more things to learn.
todae i baked caked and cookies all by myself. mom rushed out at the very last min to settle sum stuff. sorted out. my little quarrelsome family. my big problematic families. getting used to it. as more marriages occur and child brought into the family, more suffer the same fate. sorry to snaffee for bringing her to my family and enduring what i hafta go through n maybe worst. but can only dote on her more. i shld neva bring another into the chaos. maybe until i work and manage to own my very own hse to keep more dogs. but thats the end.
At moments her pride rebelled against her passion for him, and she even had longed to be free. -Eustacia frm return of the natives.
a meaningful line frm my fav chapter of the book. the love of a gurl described so detailed. the irony in life. i dislike the book for its never ending passion. the sadness lingers. 5 more bks to the end of Return of the Natives. wish me luck. promos.. my fear. time to work on it.
twin.. long long entry as i've promised. maybe abit nonsensical.. maybe itz too myself oriented. but its my blog..=P hahhahaz... organising is hard. relationships are hard to maintain.
sarahs family let me realise that a happy and strong family do exist in the world. but i hafta appreciate my complicatin one too. =) jia you every1. tedious time of the yr.. jia you.
