Today was awesome. Again ^^

Making salad didn't take as long as I thought it would, altho my slicing technique requires some polishing. ;P TM helped out too, and so we easily put together the amazing salad and took it to my friend's bbq~ I hadn't driven for so long - my uncle stole the car for a week xD Made things slightly more inconvenient, considering that I was already unaccustomed to bussing from a months worth of solo driving. How quick I began to take it for granted! D: But its ok, cuz I really appreciate the ability to drive. Twas cool to find out that Fonzy also got a sleek black car (I'm rather ignorant about makes of cars...) and I also was requested to accompany JJ as she moved the car a few metres closer to the bbq spot xD Oh JJ, you didn't need my help at all~ :) Bashful thing~

Now, I was late, due to a quick drawing lesson for a friend of mine, (through whom I was told of a Disney Death Note??! Apparently Miley Cyrus was to play Misa Misa, and Zac Efron Light Yagami. I really hope it was a hoax.) but I can tell you the food was so goooood~ ;) I seem to have gained an appreciation for food in these few days! But what was the hightlight of an exciting day was the game of Pictionary we played. Now, as a sidenote, I must tell you that my first attempt of the game made me realise that pictionary has got NOTHING to do with your artistic skill. (That was made clear by Sherman.) Hence, despite my confidence in skill at the age of 11, I failed miserably when it came to expressing a curb or a stop sign to someone I couldn't talk to xD

But. It seems that Jesus has taken my prayers/resolutions to heart. And so have I. I'm not going to hold back... I'm believing in myself, and it feels so exhilarating.

As a result, me and TM PWNED EVERYONE ELSE.

Ah, Lady Luck favours those with heart. ;)

I will admit that most of the 'luck' was due to the fact that me and TM were paired together... but I also managed to keep rolling 6s... and also managed to roll the exact number needed to land squarely on the final square... and then we proceeded to win the round.

Luck? I'll leave it up to you. :)

(Oooh, also as a sidenote, me and Rose managed to draw the EXACT same picture for Dracula xD)

But yes. Fun~ And for once, I'd completely forgotten to be hesitant when doing anything. It was...really uplifting. I wonder where this person had come from. I was completely comfortable talking to anyone and everyone there... well ok, not an amazing achievement since i knew most of them really well.... ok, that isnt entirely true either.

Nonetheless, a little victory for the success to come? :)
My only drawback was when I spontaneously decided to crash JJ's afterwards, but then double checked with father and was told no. And then reached home. And found out that parents were at a movie.

So I could've gone anyway. gah fail. D:

Mm... but this independence thing is growing on me. I like it.

To end this fabulous day, I HAVE to mention the superlicious cheesecake that GG's mum made for her. Man... that was literally the icing on top of the cake.

Could not have asked for a better time. xxoo

Ahhh... today was so much fun~ Relaxation therapy to the max~ :3

Essentially, went to a good friend's place to make Okonomiyaki! Mmmm.... My previous encounter with it put me off slightly. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING, beats home cooking!! <3

So just jotting down the recipe:
----
1 cup flour
Cooking oil
2 cups shredded cabbage (or other leafy green of your choice)
Any other veggies or meats you like
Japanese mayonnaise (tastes quite different than American mayonnaise)

Mix the ingredients until there are no batter lumps. Cabbage is the only constant, though you don't even need to use that if you'd prefer something like lettuce or spinach.

Remember that when frying, make the batter spread out more in order to cook it more thoroughly.

Excellentt~~~ Good food = full of happy ^^ Also, note to self - Japanese Mayo has a picture of a baby on it. It is NOT to be mistaken for baby milk xD

Then we dragged ourselves to the park to work off the calories xD Or just to try and not build up as much winter flub as possible... Mor photo splurging ^^ This time I took some of G, cuz otherwise she'd never be in any xD The sun came out this time, too. :) Then we headed back in after climbing out of the tree and watched The Cat Returns~ Last time I watched this, it was all in cantonese and I couldnt understand anything x_x" So I finally got it~ I love Ghibli... <3 The music, the art... the animation and the v.a.s... <3

Other than that, Tinsorz learnt that Emma Watson was born in Paris, NOT England... And she also cannot remove the 'Looks like Osama Binladin's beard' joke from her tainted mind. Sigh.

Another update on my little philosophies of life...

I keep messing up the balance of life. I really do. Either my head's buried in the current time and only assessment and tests are my priority... or I fantasise about the bigger picture and dream of vague possibilities in the future, and completely forget that what I do now will get me there.

But its ok, cuz I have my whole life to get used to this :)

But I've kind of figured out what I'd like my bigger dream to be...
1. To become a person who can stand on their own... dream and achieve, have fun and fulfil my life to the fullest...
but 2. to have someone to share it with for life... that special beloved :)

As much as I love my beloved now... I haven't even realised the first dream. Perhaps I'm greedy? ;) But it's true that I have barely learnt to walk... I don't even know what I love doing, let alone what I'll do for a career. I can't even support myself... I'm very indecisive, and unsure all the time. Especially of myself. Which I shouldn't be.

But hey, I'm learning~
So, until I can be at a point where I'm more sure of myself, being involved in this search for a life partner is not something I can be a part of... directly. At least, it has a very high chance of ending the same way my first love did... (Of course, I still love him. But I'm just happy being able to talk to him and enjoy his company.)

I musn't forget... You have to learn to love yourself first, before you can love anyone else. Otherwise it's just admiration. And you'll just be a burden to the relationship and make it harder to grow.

"You know, there are 2 things in life I really wanted to work hard for and be patient for. One, was to become a doctor. Second, was you."
