Your Superpower Should Be Super Speed

You're quick witted and fast to act.
You're mind works at warp speed. From your perspective, everyone else is living in slow motion.
You get so much done, people have accused you of not sleeping.
Definitely not a couch potato, you feel a bit crazy if you're not busy doing something.

Why you would be a good superhero: You're be the first on the scene... and likely to finish the job before anyone else shows up

Your biggest problem as a superhero: Being bored by everyone else. Including other superheroes!

saw this on another blog. thought it was cute so tried it out. super speed would be really useful now. ( :

its really been quite a blue morning. kept raining..i almost got the clothes drenched in the rain - thank God i got the awning up just in time. anyhow, i realise that ever since i got this blog up..i've been journaling less. which is bad, cos i wanna scrap all these photos, but the moment has passed and the feeling isnt the same. i feel like scrapbooking should be done whilst in the midst of the moment. its only then the feel of the day can be captured.

besides that, i've been spending waaay too much money. its like i'm fueling my creative outlet, but the outlet's jammed somewhere, but i keep getting more hardware to place around it. okay, i dont make sense. beading and scraping is burning a large whole in the proverbial pocket. okay, enough grousing. spaghetti anyone?


anyhow, i got bored. so here are more results from blogthings.com ( :

Pepperoni Pizza

Robust and dominant.
When you go for something, you go full force.
You tend to take control of situations easily.
And in return, you get a ton of respect.


You Are Rocky Road Ice Cream

Unpredictable and wild, you know how to have fun.
You're also a trendsetter who takes risks with new things.
You know about the latest and greatest - and may have invented it!

You are most compatible with vanilla ice cream.


Caffe Vanilla Frappuccino

Smooth and sweet, you fit in to almost any crowd. No one would suspect you of being a coffee tweaker!

You Are a Ham Sandwich

You are quiet, understated, and a great comfort to all of your friends.
Over time, you have proven yourself as loyal and steadfast.
And you are by no means boring. You do well in any situation - from fancy to laid back.

Your best friend: The Turkey Sandwich

Your mortal enemy: The Grilled Cheese Sandwich

You Are a Sprinkled Donut

Flamboyant and flashy, you're easily distracted by shiny things.
You're definitely a snazzy number, and you usually catch everyone's eye in the room.
And you've got the goods to back it up your colorful image.
(Though too much of you gives people a stomach ache!)

Snickers

Nutty and gooey - you always satisfy.

You Are a Buttered Popcorn Jelly Bean

You have a strong, distinct flavor that makes you quite controversial. Some people love you, others wish you would disappear forever.


You Are an Orange Flower

An orange flower tends to represent boldness, energy, and warmth.
At times, you are courageous, like a poplar tree.
And at other times, you are hopeful, like an orange iris.
And more than you wish, you bond too quickly to people, like a honeysuckle.


You Are 45% Impulsive

You're quite impulsive, but you never are reckless.
You qualify as a very spontaneous person, but you still know how to honor your commitments.
And while responsibility doesn't come easy to you, having fun does!

sentosa

14august2007





it was only when we reached sentosa that i realised how long it was since i had been there. it looked totally different. this is a really late entry cos was waiting for pictures from everyone's camera..then had to reduce the picture sizes to put up on flickr..and then, i realised that flickr might be good - friendly user interface, uploading engine, etc, but the its free for only 200 pictures. so i gotta start uploading onto blogger more thoroughly now. sigh. ahwells. btw, did i mention we had a blast at sentosa? yes we did. haha, would like to do that again soon. but then exams are in two weeks..brilliant.

a bouquet of lilies <3



you wont believe what my amazing boyfriend did..he sent this lovely hand bouquet of lilies to my school. it was kinda embarrassing, but very very sweet! ( : lilies are like my favourite flowers, well, lilies and tulips. but yea, lilies. i wish i could capture the smell in digital format. it smells like a garden, my room. it has a very fresh, crisp smell that hits you - and you think of a beautiful sunshine day in a garden. yes. beautiful lovely lilies..

brownies


sometimes i think the people who invented things like brownies and cheesecakes were stumped for names. yea, but makes it alot easier for us plebians. i think brownie points for simple names, rather than something like french-ish and not as easy to relate to..like truffles and souffles. yes.

anyhow, brownies for weichung and louis' birthday potluck at sentosa tmr!! (: sugar, chocolate chips and chocolate --> the essential in a brownie i believe. baking is a messy yet artistic form of expression. its just therapeutic knowing that even tho the start and process looks like a mess, if you've got a great recipe, the end result will still be just as yummy. (:

sheryl's "how to make potato salad in 5 easy steps"

5 easy steps! (: i made potato salad today..realised that in the umpteenth times i've made it, i havent taken pictures or recorded it down, etc. so decided to do so in blog form. wanted to do a cute photoshop collage, only to realise that i've kinda forgotten everything shuyan taught me earlier. anyhoo. shall ask her again tmr. (: for now, here are the pictures and directions!!

step 1: boil potatoes (till soft) and eggs (hardboiled). cube and slice respectively. a handy tip would be the run cold water over the potatoes to stop the cooking. (:


step 2: mix sliced egg and cubed potato


step 3(a): choose spices and sprinkle liberally. (:


step 3(b): add condiments - i'd use mayo, but you can use other salad dressings tho'.


step 4: mix it all up!


step 5: refrigerate and its ready to eat. garnish with preferred toppings - i like bacon bits personally. (:

relive the school days

blurry pic

say cheese!

hippie and the exorcist. (haha)

this is actually a really nice shot, the angle, focus, etc. and it wasnt blurry most importantly.

our "masterpiece" of which zie drew first in pencil. we just coloured it in using crayons, trying to look like pro artists. not!

typical toilet photo. thats all of us girls. (:

i decided to have a regular post. well..partly because i just updated the playlist and i'm tired of waiting ages for the pictures to be loaded up on the net. its either my laptop's crawling (which means i need a NEW laptop..*hint to dad!*) or its the silly website. anyhoo, i'm just glad i managed to get the augustness collection up in the circular slideshow format. (:

anyhow, to give some background, the pictures above were taken while we were filming our mtv (27/07/07). haha, it was really funny, cos shuyan and i arrived at cityhall at like 10am in school uni. the working folk were like giving us weird stares which translates into "why arent you in school?" strangely tho, it felt perfectly normal wearing school u and we were even contemplating wearing school u again. we were trying to use the fact we were using uniform to our FULL advantage - like student offers (even tho some of us were already 20..*ahem! haha) ohyea, and we didnt do the splash scene (not because it wasnt raining mind you..it was pouring dinos!) but cos we didnt have time and shuyan and i..uh..conveniently forgot about it. (: much to the dismay of louis of couse. but ohwells.

hopefully we'll get the video up soon. we still gotta edit it and cut it and add the music..then maybe we'll upload it on youtube or something. yea. laters!
