ATTENTION: Well...

...it's only my birthday wishes. Nothing big, really.

1. A netbook. I am really in need of a new computer, for the one that I'm using now has been challneging my patience so much. It's like, hello, I've been using it for almost 5 years, with one-time-concussion. A serious concussion. Nobody can handle my lappy but me. Trust me, you will never can wait for it's lagging or troubleshoot it's problem like I do.

Well, it can be Asus...

..or this handsome Acer Ferrari.

2. Stabilizer bar, for Ahbie.

ee nee mini my nee mo. okay, red one!

Ah, okay, that's all. See, I am not hard to be taken care of. =P

Other than that, of course I wish for happiness for my family, friends and myself. Many happy returns! ;D

p.s: My birthday is 13 days to go, yea.

Birthday Gift

The best birthday gift ever...


to have sailorBoy with on the other line for me.

I thought the ship has taken him away to Europe or somewhere else as he is supposed to be in Bintulu on the 8th June (according to my weekly counting).

That's the challenge we have to face in our very own 'sail'. Next is to plan for our dates. Sigh

*macam ni rupenye bercinta*

Btw sayang, since you are here.
(I'm pretty sure your connection is slow)

heheheh..alter2 sket..
;p

What is it with 10?

Okay okay. Why the number 10 is my favourite? To be honest, it is not because ‘10’ is the date I was born. Neither because the number is reserved for the greatest player in a team like Pele, Maradona, Zidane or even the footballer whom I had a crush when I was in high school. I often heard that ‘10’ is a favourite number of many people. I have a friend who also likes this number. I have no idea why is that for her.

Ten or dix (deece) in French, or ‘asyarah in Arabic. There’s an idea implied by this number that is seemed could be interpreted into something meaningful from my perspective. I love the idea of generalization that I could see from him. Yes. To me, ‘10’ is a ‘he’. Don’t you think so?

To me, ‘10’ is perfect. It is a complete pair with a holistic definition. In life, everything is created in pairs like Adam and Eve, Ying and Yang, black and white, spoon and fork and whatnot. That is the first idea that I could see from ‘10’. The digit ‘1’ is paired up with ‘0’ into a number – 10. ‘10’ is a simplest pair of digits.

Secondly, ‘10’ represents the idea of comparison. ‘1’ is a straight line that could start from A to B, or an infinity that will never meet the starting point (A). Whilst ‘0’ can also be said as infinity but it runs in the same circulation again and again that passes through the starting point. 1 is a straight line and 0 is the curvy one.

Next is about the shape. ‘1’ is like a solid structure that no hollow space can be filled. Meanwhile ‘0’ is a build that has an empty space to be stuffed in the middle. ‘1’ is solid and ‘0’ is hollow.Besides, it also shows the thin and the fat. We usually show a sign using the pinky finger to say someone is stick thin and blown up gesture for fat. ‘1’ is stick thin and ‘0’ is round fat.

Hurmm..

Okay. Another idea that I could see from this number is about value. We usually have this specific rank from the least to the most. The least usually starts from ‘1’. Before the least, ‘none’ takes place first in which is the ‘0’. Value starts with ‘1’, and ‘0’ shows no value.

See? That is why I like the number 10. 10 shows the simplest general ideas about life. And just so that you know, there were several weird occurrences with me and number 10. There was a time where my bus number is 10 and so did my seat number. When I went to interview to enroll this TESL program, my turn was 10! And lots more that I can’t recall.

Actually, it is a well- known fact to some friends that I have weird images of numbers. Or I shall say, creative? I see number 2 as a delicate figure, 3 as a retarded, 4 as a relaxed figure where he crossed one of his legs, 5 as arrogant like it pulls the face a bit upwards, 6 as a hunch back, 7 as robust, 8 as funny and cute (for this number, try to shape an 8 using your own body and look into the mirror.. There) and finally 9, same as 6. Or if you write your 9 with the round and a stick figure, it’ll look like a seductive, voluptuous lady the Betty Boob- like. 0? 0 is simple and surprised.

There. I wish I were good with numbers. But giving them weird images is all I can do.

Well, Happy 23rd birthday to me! :D

Test Your Personality

Semalam kami ada seminar by Group U8D. Congrats guys! You did it well. And it was sempoi~

The seminar is about positive thinking, smile, how to be positive, how to change the negative thinking to the positive etc. etc. And oh, the 'brain gym' too, that was interesting.

According to the speaker, Dr. Abd. Halim Mohd Hussin (yeah, we share our father's name), there are 3 types of negative thinker.

Worrisome Thinker - Distressing over a situation
for a long period of time. An obsessive and incessant thought that is intrusive
and persistent.

Catastrophic Thinker - Looking at a situation and
immediately taken it out of proportion and anticipating an extreme misfortune or
utter disaster.

Self-Critical Thinker - Whatever you do, you tell
yourself it is not good enough, or you should have done it differently, or could
have done it better. You judge yourself in a harsh manner without compassion or
acceptance of your imperfections

Capella University

Sometimes, I fall in the catastrophic thinker. I assume too much, in a negative way. For instance, when my friend shows any unpleasant signals, I would think that I did wrong to her. Hehehe. So tiring!

Nevertheless, being free today with absolutely nothing better to do, I did a something like a personality test online. "Are You a Positive or Negative Thinker?" test.

My score is 48.

According to the score interpretation:

32-50
You try to be optimistic and positive however some situations get the better of you. Identify your triggers for negative thinking and use rational thinking exercises to become naturally more optimistic. Use the tips later in this article to nail those negative thoughts!

Haha! It means that I am not really a positive nor negative thinker. I am ambivalent! But I try to be positive as I realize that being negative will utilize more of my precious energy. Good?

Are you a positive or negative thinker? How positive are you? Or how negative are you? I suggest u try the test! =)

*jump*

And today is my little brother's 19th birthday!! He is the baby in the family who acts more like a 'hero'. 'Pendekar Slebet' - that's what we used to call him and the other cousin for being a sissy-ultraman when they were kids. I don't have his picture with me now. But the siblings raya picture will help.

he's on the left side in dark purple baju melayu. Slightly more 'filled' than my brother on the right side that bother him so much everytime we all gather because we would ask mom to get him a 'starter bra' due to the excess fat on his breast. Haha!. He wants to be a Navy like my brother but he has quite a serious short sight.

Frequency! Frequency!

I don't know why, I feel so happy today!

eventhough I had to skip the 11.30 a.m class this morning; because I woke up late and failed to catch the bus and train. =)

I've been delivering the positive frequency in myself and to others too.

yeay!!!!!!

And oh, today is my friends' 23rd birthday!!!

Happy 23rd Birthday to Ili and Hadi!

Well. Allow me, people to make this announcement.

3 months from today, will be my 23rd birthday!!

Err..I just need to do this for fun because since school, my birthday has always been on school holidays. It has never changed since forever, i guess. Wuwu!

*I dreamt of sailorBoy last nite. =)

happy birthday to you...

nah nah..tiup lilin ni Bo. tadi aku dah bagi kacang free dari Halim kan?? hehehe...

hurrmm...hari ni agak hectic buat aku. class awal-awal pagi lagi. pukul 8.30 class current issues in education yang mana pagi tadi aku telah melakukan serkap jarang yang tepat ketika menjawab soalan lecturer. hahaha!!! (aku tend to cakap banyak kalau mengantuk dalam class sometimes jadi merapu). lepas tu, ada class pukul 11.30 pulak. iaiatu family counseling. ye, aku minor in counseling. sejam je class tadi. tapi lepas tu, aku bertugas untuk menjana kewangan bagi seminar class Professional Development kami. kami (Hiezel, Darina, Sheila dan aku) bertugas setiap hari khamis. kami di bawah biro 'program and protocol' untuk seminar misteri yang bakal kami anjurkan nanti. jeng jeng jeng!

inilah cik Hiezel yang gebu!

ini pulak cik Darina kite..

ini kami main jual-jual...

tapi sebelum semua ini, kami (Eapa, Ili dan aku) telah singgah ke canteen baru kami yang sangat suci putihnya sebelum masuk class pukul 8.30a.m tadi. disebabkan cantik dan baru sangat canteen/cafe itu, kami pun ambil la gambar kenangan. maklumla, kami dah kat sini sejak 3 1/2 tahun dulu, mana ada cafe tu cantik macam ni...so excited!

by the way, my phone battery can last for 3 days without charging now. if you know what i mean.

and, i have this CALL assignment that anytime from now pun boleh buat everytime pergi library. tapi tak buat-buat pun.

bagusnye la~

gasp!

gosh..about the previous post. it was posted by sailorBoy before his ship sailed out from Bintulu off to Futsu. Eapa told me that she has read it and I couldn't stop myself from stalking her about it..wuwuwuwu..gosh..I don't know what to say. he is not here anymore. and I can't tell him how I feel upon his sweet note he left me.

I was in my sister's place in PJ last weekend that I couldn't go online. and by the way, my sailorBoy asked me a favour. he wants me to update my blog everyday so that when he reaches Bintulu in every two weeks, he got to know how i am doing by reading it. okay boy. i'll try my best (i am kind of lazy to update).

lompat...

today is my cutest most stylist friend's 22nd birthday!!!! it is EAPA's birthday. let me sing a birthday song for you once again...

happy birthday to you...

happy birthday to you...

happy birthday to Eapa...

Happy Birthday!

the Birthday Boy. (he's a man)

he's 27 today. i feel guilty because i can't celebrate his 'burst day'.
well, i have planned a 'surprise' (like i've explained to you). nevermind, just a wish and this 'birthday party' that i can give to him.

he loves chocolate indulgence like i do. there, i've given him a slice. ;p

baking time!!

Today is my 4th sister's 28th birthday. Her name is Wan Haryati binti Wan MohdHussin. The family call her Tetty. And I, just finished baking her a chocolate cake!! yeay! it has been aeons since my last baking and the last cake that i baked was so humiliating! haha! maybe because i did it half-heartedly so I miss mixed some ingredients. I think it was the baking powder because my cake was so dry, too spongy and kinda hollow; and I didn't even want to eat it! lol! by the way, let me share my chocolate cake recipe with you guys =D

these are the ingredients that we need:

4 oz. butter (it is equal to that one bar /250g)
1 1/2 cup of Castor sugar
2 eggs
1 tbs. of vanilla essence
5 oz. flour
1 2/3 cup of cocoa powder
1 tsp. of baking powder
1 1/2 cup of fresh milk
lime juice (just squeeze half of the lime into the milk) this is to make your cake moist.
* seize the flour together with cocoa powder and baking powder

how to do it?

1. Beat butter and Castor sugar until it is fluffy. you can know it is fluffy when it becomes slightly white.
2. Add in the eggs and beat it again until it is well mixed
3. Add in the vanilla essence. This is to make our cake smells nice =)
4. Mix it well.
5. Add in the flour occasionally until finish. Do not put on your mixture at a high level. It will make the texture hard and of course hard cake. Mix well.
6. Pour in the fresh milk and mix it until the mixture become soft and thick.
7. Taadaaaa!!! you've done mixing the cake. Now, pour the mixture into the greased tray. Bake you cake at the temperature of 180 degree. it will take around 80 minutes. check your cake regularly by sticking in a sharp knife or stick. when it comes out clean, your cake is done!

*make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature*

if you want to add in some Hershey's or chocolate chips or anything, you can mix it before you pour the mixture into the tray. =)

for the frosting, you can use cooking chocolate. double boil the chocolate at your desire. And add on 1tbs. of butter so that you'll get a shiny topping.
or, if you do not have cooking chocolate, you can have another type of topping.

here are the ingredients:

1 1/2 cup butter
3 tbs water
3 1/2 cup of icing sugar
1/2 cup of cocoa powder

First, melt the butter on a slow heat. pour in icing sugar. stir and never stop stirring. in the other container, dissolve the cocoa powder with 3tbs. of water, or maybe you can spoon in some of the melted mixture to help. pour it into the mixture on the slow heat. Stir it untill all the ingredients are mixed well and cooked. tadaa!
You can decorate your topping as your desire! It is easy! But make sure the cake is cool before you cover it with your creamy topping.
Or you can always go to the supermarket to get the instant cake mixture! I've tried once and it's yummy!


the result. my nude cake. fresh from the oven! it is cracked that much in the center because i poked it so many time to make sure it is well cooked. hehs! when it is cool, I'm gonna put beautiful clothes on her with the cooking chocolate topping!

Mixing the cake will take you around 20 -30 minutes if you have all the ingredients ready. e.g. you seize the flour before you start mixing. When i was a kid, i was a big fan of Chef Wan (i still am). I never missed his cooking show especially during Hari Raya season. I still remember he said that when we mix our cake, make it one way so that the cake will come out beautiful. And, the higher you seize the flour, the lighter the cake will be. And oh, one tip from Chef Ismail, after you pour the mixture into the tray, give a light knock to the tray so that all the air inside the mixture will go out and you'll get a solid cake. haha!
I wanted to be a chef when i was a kid. Back then, whenever mi sister was baking a cake, I would snog to her hoping that she would let me mixed it. But instead of mixing, i went to cleaning all the tools that had been used! But i think it was a good training. Like in a kung fu movie, before you get to practice on the skills, you'll have to carry buckets full of water and run and what's not kan. So maybe that's the way. haha!

so, selamat mencuba! and Practice makes perfect. That's why my previous cake was a failure. It was after a year of my time not baking any. And i hope this one will come out gorgeous! huhu~

recipe book that we live by. it keeps my ugly handwriting when i was 5. i copied down the recipes from cooking shows. for my mom. all my sisters done this and that was my turn!

* i forgot to get another recipe from my friend. haiseh! i think i should try that recipe too! =)


I wish i had the Electrolux mixer and the oven!
