I did it.... Finally!

So I have made the biggest purchase in my life, a HOUSE. Oh well, not a house yet, I bought a piece of land and there will be a house on that block of land. This lot is only 10-15 mins to the city, depending on the traffic condition; walking distance to the train station.

being a first home buyer with limited funds, I had to be realistic with the design of the house and things I can put in there. However, it is on a green title block so I am free to renovate it as long as the renovation doesn't violate the council requirements.

Everything is still in an early stage, I have signed the land agreement, now waiting to sign the building agreement. The developer kept screwing up the design of my house. /Sigh. Then I just have to pray the home loan will come through, thouh I already have a pre-approved loan, but who knows what will the bank say now... I mean the economy is bad, they may change their mind. /Finger crossed

It is very stressful to realise that a big chunk of my salary will go to mortgage, but then I know it will be very rewarding in 10 years time.

Weekend Breakfast

I try to cook breakfast for Matt whenever I can, especially weekend. We will either have nasi lemak, dim sum or home cooked breakfast.

A typical big breakfast that I prepared the last weekend that he was here. He demanded hash brown but I rejected, because hash brown is unhealthy. I think the big breakfast is pretty unhealthy already, so I should leave the hash brown out.



Have a good weekend!!!!!!

Cup Cakes

I always find baking very therapeutic, I am feeling a bit moody today and decided to bake something. My pantry is always full of baking ingredients ... hehehe

So I made some orange cupcakes, they turned out wonderful and I ate 3! Actually 2.5 because Cheska had half a cupcake herself.

You know what's my favourite moment when baking?

This:
Seeing the cake rising...... ah....

Food

I know I had a food blog set up but I just can't be bothered to maintain 2 blogs at the moment, I am busy with life and everything else. So I am going to combine the two blogs together. I will try to report my dinner as often as I can. :p (That's if anyoen is interested.."

Dinner 10/07

Pan fried tooth fish fillet, stir fry broccoli and runner beanwith garlic. Served with rice. I LOVE tooth fish! They are expensive but I DON'T CARE! Matt had to go out that night, so hahahahaha I got to eat 2 fillets all by myself!


Breakfast - French Toast!

This is one of my soul food. Love it.... but can't have it too often as I think it is a bit greasy to have it for breakfast on a regular basis

Loser

When I was in college, there are several losers in my class, I called them losers because they thought they were cool, they thought they were smart, they thought they had the x-factors and tried to go for girls who obviously beyond their reach.

I thought they were losers because not only they were fat, not good looking, dumb (reflected on their results)...

Anyway... after years of not meeting up with them, they suddenly added me on Facebook and they are still losers to me after checking their FB. I now hide their news on my 'homepage' so I dont see their status. Amen!

One in particular, claimed that he was going to Madagascar, but he was actually 'backpacking' in Singapore.... Hello? A Malaysian backpacking in SG?! WTF...
