i know. i know im supposed to update on the weekend – jaime’s bday, zoukfest and joey’s wedding. but i cant do jackshit now. i missed my 8am class. i really want to make it at 9am but the traffic is seriously fucked here. FUCKED. i repeat to demonstrate the enormity, F U C K E D. i wouldn’t be able to make it. argh fucking kills me, man. it’s not like i even went to bed late. wtf? just when i want to start the semester with a clean slate and perfect attendance, this has to happen.
I kid you not. Iām perfect.
First of all, in spite of the little crazy episode I had with myself this morning (which prompted me to head to the bakery – bought 5 different kinds of crabmeat buns + a chocolate donut, ate ALL in 2 hours while watching Grounded For Life, The Casino and yes, Oprah), I received my result transcript from college. Guess whatā¦I got FIRST CLASS for accounting. I repeat, first bloody class. I am speechless and I am almost sure that they must have made a mistake (though I definitely am not complaining). Anyone who has been reading my blog would know I am incredibly bummed when it comes to accounting (read here, here, here and here) and I skipped almost every class last year. So what can I deduce from this? Wellā¦firstly, I am a genius and secondly, I am invincible.
Iām happy and giddy again.
Lets hop over to our next subject – Jaimeās birthday. You could read about it from STās blog. My most memorable things about it were the sinfully delicious kiwi cake and the angmoh who was stuck in the 80s. He was awfully hilarious (read: squinching his skinny butt and pirouetting incessantly). Oh yeah, and I love the new bras I bought for Chinese New Year.

Self-explanatory. Iām officially perfect.
Now on to Zoukfest. I would say itās not bad for my first rave. I wasnāt actually tipsy (Okay, I do hate beer and every other kinds of alcoholic beverages except Jolly Shandy and gin & juice – why the latter didnāt come through I donāt know :C ) so those music became quite annoying and monotonous after an hour. FA and I scurried off to Ghetto Heaven where we danced behind the stage, right at the entrance to main arena (probably annoying the cops). After 5 songs, I was collapsing but FA was still dancing, 3 times the speed of everyone elseā¦Energizer bunny!!!! OMG if only you were a boy, we could hump up a stormā¦I LOVE YOUUUUUUU FA!!!! Read STās account on it. Iām just going to rip some pictures from his camera. Oh and btw, my jacket is a genuine Nike and even IF it looked like some Chinese immigrant getup (which it doesnāt! itās VINTAGE = classy, ok!) itās still a NIKE and it cost me almost RM200, ok? Donāt hate me coz Iām beautifulā¦
At the main room – I think
Clockwise from left: Me, Audrey, KY, ST, Great Faggot and Saint.
So cold I had to get cosy with Aud.
Freezing to death but had to take a few un-bakchang pictures
And on to Joeyās wedding. She was really beautiful and Vincent was glowing as well. By the end of the dinner, Vincentās pissed and was speaking in Italian. He also said something alone the line of, āDonāt worry I can still light my candle tonightā. Food was mediocre at best and the air-con was kind of whacked, but the point of wedding dinners is to celebrate a happy union so I aināt going to talk negatively about it (which sadly, seems rather popular among fellow chinese nowadays). Not going to pile on any bad karma now, would I? Pictures soon.
Friday. Yay.
I woke up this morning in time for Jamie Oliver’s cooking show and I got bitten by the baking bug. He was giving out this really simple chewy chocolate cake recipe and coincidentally, I have most of the ingredients needed. So, I baked a cake.
Twins.
Cake got the better of me even before I managed to snap a photo of it.
There are two because I didn’t want the cake to be too thick. Anyway, I think it’s pretty good, cause I already ate half of cake number one. I just had a piece from the fridge, oh my gawd the texture tasted like brownie, solid but chewy. Yum…
In case you like to know the recipe :
- 200g of sugar and 200g of butter beaten till creamy.
- Add 200gm of self-raising flour and beat again (I used ordinary flour and 2 teaspoon of baking powder).
- Fold in 3 eggs.
- Dissolve a couple of tablespoons of cocoa powder with water and add into the batter. (I used melted cooking chocolate instead).
- Fold in almond flakes (which I didn’t) and chocolate chunks (which I did).
- Pour into pan and bake for 20 mins at 180 degree celcius.
Thought I was going to bring the other one for the gang. Turned out Jaime’s celebrating her birthday in Bangsar tonight so I’m bringing the cake there instead.
I’ve opened a Multiply account. Go check it out :D
Who’s going to Zoukfest tomorrow? I am. Lets party!!!!!!!!!!!!
I nicked too much chocolate batter and ate too much chocolate cakes. ARGH. Gonna go workout now. Peace.
