my Facebook religion


… Banana Bread. =D
(Seriously, check my Facebook if you don’t believe me.)

Yup yup it’s true my friends, I… baked!! I’ve always had a fear for baking though it’s been on my various to-do lists and annual resolutions for a long time. I was convinced it can’t be too bad if Kim successfully made a tasty banana bread LOL =P (That girl… in all these years I’ve known her, I’ve never tasted her cooking…)

And I’m proud to say mine tastes good too! XD This is the first time in my life that I ate banana bread 15min after it came out of the oven lol. (Yes it was burning hot. …stfu) The above pictured is the second loaf I made, which in terms of looks and taste is better than my very first loaf. I added less sugar (first one came out way too sweet for my taste, even though I used less than the recipe amount already O_O), did things the right order this time (without a certain somebody’s “help” cough…), and it came out very soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. MMMM just how I like ‘em!

This is gonna take some convincing but, despite how it looks, THIS FIRST LOAF DID TASTE GOOD LOL. In fact I ate 2 slices of this, and my friends devoured the rest. (Well, most of them were friends…… -trails off-) Walnuts are a pain to cut, the ones on the top!

I’m going to bake a loaf for my parents when I finally go home this weekend because they would never believe it on the phone that I baked lol. Chocolate chips as well anyone? =D

THE PLANET IS DYING, AMANDA UY

lol because of this “comment and I’ll draw you a pic but you have to post it too” meme going around LJ lately, this is only because I leeched and THIS GIRL NAMED AMANDA FORCED ME while she’s all brb saving the planet

I think I got your OTP right! even though Aerith and Zack is obviously the better pair ♥ off to do some less exciting things like studying/post labs 囧

edit: btw happy february oh shit midterms

HAH TUH BEE TUH

LOLOLOL

if life had a pause button

I would probably abuse it so much. Every week felt like a hell week to me so far wtf?

Then again, some people in this world need a pause button too. Not just to pause themselves and catch up with life or whatever but,  TO PAUSE AND SHUT UP. (I guess that’s more like a Stop button. Or hell, an “off” switch permanently. Yes. That’s what they need.)

Sigh~ Life hasn’t been too great lately. Nothing horrible happened but just too busy and lots of things on my mind I guess.

CAN YOU FEEL MY HEARTBEAT

Man school makes time fly. Trying to update every week is getting hard, I barely noticed this week passing by. O_O

(I didn’t buy these Hello Kitty bookmarks so stfu) Doesn’t it look like she’s sticking up her middle finger lol. That’s how I felt on the weekend while writing my work report, and then again last night for my pre-lab. It’s been 1.5 weeks of school and I’ve had 2 all nighters -__- I swear I’m getting too old for this all nighter business. I’ll age 20 years by the time this term is over. ;_;

This morning I experienced, for the first time in my life, how it feels like to wake up because your room is just too fucking cold. I went to bed at 5 something AM dead tired and woke up at 7 something before my alarm clocks, because I was SHIVERING IN MY SLEEP. IN MY BLANKET. And I was wearing a long sweater on top of my PJs. I continued to shiver my way through my morning routine until the super hot ghd straightener gave some heat to my neck+face. Man this is ridiculous. This situation needs to be addressed, my life is at risk. =| WE MISS YOU KATIEEEE!! Come tent in our living room DX

(On topic of the pre-lab, wow homo Office 2008 for Mac can’t do mathematical equations this is discrimination. So I installed Office 2008 on my XP VM a.. few moments ago. Is this another attempt at “see nothing works on Mac” Microsoft, coz I’m not impressed. =T)

Jing got me this from Orlando. =D But I find that the moods are too children friendly and needs some vulgar expressions for me to properly communicate myself sometimes. Roommate and I are in support of making a custom one LOL when we have time… (“Today I feel… F DIS SHIT” HIGH FIVE CHAN)

As for my last entry, the correct answer is… the grand piano photo! The street lights and waterfall were taken on my p&s haha. Yes even the red accent came from my phone. Technology, sigh. =T

twenty ten

2010 so far:
+ Niagara Falls in Winter
+ residence life once again
+ Windows XP on Macbook Pro via VMware Fusion (SUCK THAT WinMobile phones)
+ Windows MSN, consequence of above

- $1K on textbooks this term
- work term report
- 8:30am classes every day of the week
- midterm week (directly) AFTER reading week
- stupid Canadian winter weather

Happy New Year! Man crazy backlog, haven’t had time to update closer to the actual NY day. Today was first day of classes. At this point I feel like I’m over the excitement (if you can call it that) of first days. Looks like I’ll have to prepare second breakfast to keep myself from being hungry and distracted in class this term. Seriously? 4 hours of sitting in the same seat 8:30am-12:30pm? Who made this schedule @*#&^$

Glad to be back at school nonetheless. (Stop looking at me like that I’m not crazy.) Goodbye sleep HELLOOOO coffee!

One of these 3 photos were taken on my phone. I’ll let you guess which one, hehe.

Merry Christmas!

I woke up at 7AM this morning, but not because of excitement for gifts. Because… I forgot to turn off my work days alarm clocks, now that my co-op term has officially ended on Christmas Eve. Epic fail moment. ‘Tis going to be another rather uneventful Christmas for me since my family doesn’t celebrate it. (I got a text message from my Protestant friend who told me to rejoice in the true meaning of this day… lol D: I’m not Christian!) Hope everyone who’s celebrating it will have a great time. =)

(I celebrate the gift part of Christmas though and the above pic is taken on my NEW CELL PHONEEEE nothing too exciting, just the Samsung Omnia. I played with this phone quite a bit during my last co-op term where I worked at a telecomm company. I like it kekeke but HTC Touch Pro still takes better pictures despite having lower MP than Omnia. But.. Omnia has more effects to play with! If this phone wasn’t powered by Windows Mobile it would’ve been perfect. Alas… -sad face-)

I met up with Toby a few days ago over a lunch of “heavenly kimbap” (lol), it was nice seeing him again.

holi + 4(days)

happy holidays

Holidays vacation started for most people (yours truly not included…but soon!), and being the last day of school for kids today, my dad came home with buncha gifts. Among them is this creatively written card. Excuse the engineer here, I breathe math (and physics, but math a tad more willingly.) So naturally I started finding f’(x)… (assuming the “variable” is not, you know, x, otherwise the answer could look a bit complicated.)

wrt-x

… LOL sorry kid, we all know you meant well. =T I just couldn’t help it. I already disobeyed the fact that integers cannot be used like variables. (And then I had to extend my dickery some more and make the point of keeping the parentheses around derivatives of sinx and cosx to show that it would’ve been… “daysholi” even with his logic.)

Happy Holidays!!

snow

Snowflakes downtown Toronto! =D

(I never thought the day would come where I make… “webcam photography”. My epic fail phone didn’t catch any of the snow and my only option left was the iSight on the iMac… Wouldn’t really call this photography, more like “artsy picture” =|)

Majestic, isn’t it.

“Excuse me, I’m looking for Sears Tower… the map says it should be around here?”
“… You’re looking at it!”
“WHAT”
“Yeah… they changed the name.”

Taken from Sears Tower. I don’t care what they say, Sears Tower is Sears Tower, what Willis what.
