Typical Sunday

Waking up early in the Sunday morning is so not me... alas I have problem having a good sleep recently, maybe it's due to my newly bought pillow which claimed to be able to enhance blood circulation that can improve sleeping quality?! Or maybe I just haven't got used to my new pillow?!


Anyhow, I grabbed my old pillow and sat in front of my computer to watch the latest episode of Make me a Supermodel. This reality show is hilarious! Every week the candidates will perform a series of photo shoots and catwalks, judges will select the bottom three among them to put up for voting. The one with least votes will be eliminated. Something similar to ANTM but the ultimate power of elimination comes from the viewers instead of the judges. There has been quite a lot of model talent show recently; even Malaysia has our own version of model reality show - Malaysian dreamgirl. I have been following the show since but to be frank it's not as funny as the American based reality show mainly because the contestants simply are not bitchy enough?! haha...

My fave dreamgirl to date is Fiqa. She has a very elegant and sophisticated style plus she has the height of a model.



Cheesie sounds phony to me... I have been a loyal reader of her blog and thought she might have what it takes when it comes to personality but after watching episode 6, you'll probably have the same thinking like me... a bit beh tahan when she cried like someone just passed away saying "why you guys didn't vote for her" when the 3 girls were voted out. Hello?! I know girl is emo when it comes stuff like this but I think she exaggerated it and probably want the show to project a sympathetic side of her?! Anyway, that is just my personal opinion.

Eyna has got the most potential to become a model. She got the height and looks but her shy personality doesn't stand out among the other girls, so we shall see…


Ok coming back to Sunday, after having breakfast with my family, I decided to do some baking! It's been a while since my last baking, so this time around I decided to make some cupcakes!

Baking 101:
1. Mix flour, sugar, egg and water together



2. Added in melted butter and mix it up.


3. Melted chocolate / peanut butter for own flavoring
4. Put mixture in paper cups and added in chocolate / peanut butter.
5. Put some almond flakes or raisin on the top for deco.



6. Bake for 30 minutes in pre-heated oven.


7. Voila!




Anyway.....

went over to Dessert Bar at Mont Kiara in the afternoon. The name of the shop says it all. It offers a variety of smoothies, home made ice-creams and mousse desserts.

Berry-licious. Custard mousse with berry jello at the bottom =D


Black sesame and soy milk ice-cream. I love it! Not too sweet to my liking...


Grape smoothies. I love it X100!! Not those fake artificial flavoring, made 100% from grapes =D


Enjoying a quiet Sunday reading a good book while having my favorite dessert. Priceless.


I got fever recently. French mani fever! =D Bought this Sally Hansen's French Manicure kit from Watson the other day. It's a bit pricey for nail polish cause I normally buy nail polish from Skin Food or The face shop for less than 20 bucks each. But it's worth it cause it really glides smoothly on my nails! =)


French mani anyone? =p

Getting my own place

Lately, I have been thinking about moving out. People always say I "manja" (spoilt) cause i just used to living with my parents where everything is provided. I've never stayed alone or stayed at dorm before. I can always count on my mom for home cooked dinner when i come back from school / work. My laundry is always done even though my mom does complain about it once in a while. Nonetheless, everything in my daily life is kinda organized and assured. I'm trying to picture myself living all by myself. I may need to do my own laundry which sounds tired for me =p, I may need to clean up the toilet every week and cook my own dinner when I come back from work. These all sound so exhausting!! Yet, in order to let myself to become more independent, I need to take the very first step - GET MY OWN PLACE. Otherwise, I will be died of laziness! -_-"

Hmm.... any room to let that comes with washing machine, broadband connection and home cooked food?! wahahahaha....
