thursday @ orchard.
woo! no school next week. finally! and i got my whole week planned with activities to do already. so dun need to stay at home and rot.
the driving lesson on wed i think i improve a little bit more. mr khoo taught me reverse parking and he placed two poles there for me to slowly reverse in. cos there wasn't much time so we did that for only three times but three times i also managed to reverse smoothly. at least not to the extend of letting the pole drop la. happy for my slight improvement cos i learn things very slowly i have to admit that.
just one hour ago when i reached home. i wanted to go wash my stinky feets, i on the tap and woosh i fell down. so dumb lo. wash feet also can fall down then i hit my butt and my arm and got a little bleeding wound. my mom is so funny i shouted from the toilet for her and said i fell down she just walked to the toilet look at me then went back to watch her televsion. never mind, at least she gave me a plaster for my wound.
the sleeping bug is attacking me! Sleeping after one episode of my korea drama. tata.

after numerous formulation trials we finally finished the product that we wanted to send to the company to check. and teacher was like saying: dun care if there is separation and dun care if the colour is dark just give to the company and see first. then i was like: "YES!" because like finally she didn't ask us to make any changes to it. so hope it will be the last formulation that we have to do.
was late for driving lesson just now. ten minutes late and Mr Khoo was already at there waiting for me. so pai seh just now when i travel on the train i thought i would reach in time. and i nearly slept in the train just now cos i slept at 12.30am last night. but i think people would hate to see a person sleeping with the head swinging here and there so i just stare at the floor with my eyes half close.
i seriously need to sleep more! i am feeling tired everyday. i shall replenish that on next week when there is no school!
tml is a long day and i got to wake up early in the morning again i guess but it's okay because it is for my dearest ah gong.
one year just passes so fast. it is like a blink of eye and one year has passed. Even though it has already been one year, fond memories of him and the twelve years that i spent growing up at his house are still vivid in my mind.
i miss you and see you tml grandpa.

dinner at mos burger on tuesday.
finally finished my summary and minutes of meeting for formulation 14. and speaking of that, yesterday the teacher last minute called us to go back to school cos the dressing had separation. so bo bian cannot visit granny yesterday. so i guess i can only see her on thursday then. and we last minute went back in the end nothing good came out of it too cos every variation we did she also got different comments. so monday have to go back to school again. sigh.
at last jiejie is coming home next week! :)
tml i will be making cupcakes with icing with the new cupcake cookery book bought last month. hope it will turn out nice!

Shang Yue & Mind's Cafe...
sunday we went out for shang yue at raffles place. cos siew li's father said that at night there will be beautiful lanterns and lightings but when we went there, there was no lightings cos i think maybe it is only from one duration of time only. so too bad la. wanted to eat something else but went into mind's cafe cos it was near and it was raining and didn't want to walk any further. but didn't play games cos we got too much to chat about. so ya next time we shall go again girls!
bought green tea from mcdonald and found a spot with a nice view of the moon then we started eating mooncakes and continued chatting. we played a game then we settled the rest of the mooncakes cos we were all very full. luckily i only eat two pieces, the two of them eat the most. haha.
i think they quite shang lian for my mooncakes cos i think it was not that nice. haha. i still got one and half box at home lo. dun think can finish also. never mind next year we shall go to a better place during the lantern festival!
driving lesson later at 3pm. hope it will not be that bad than last week since today i got enough sleep should be okay ba. hope i dun feel demoralized by it whenever he scolds me. jia you sharon!

The continuous laboratory work for MP everyday...
after the major project proposal and interview now we have to focus on the benchwork part already. everyday tasting salad dressings. it taste especially nice with lettuce! or maybe is the formulation that we created today is nicer. haha. lettuce + salad dressing = yummy!
it is so nice that when you are working on your own group of project, your clique people is also some where beside you doing theirs. and the best thing is they are doing ice cream so i can eat all kind of combination that you cannot find outside. i love the cornflake one today! but ghee is fattening. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
just completed with the summary of the no. 8 formulation. could have finished earlier but my poor computer is now sick. because just now it hanged for 5 times before i can smoothly type things. poor computer please recover soon k i need you a lot for major project!! -_-
another ten more minutes and i am off to my lovely bed. but let me type some of the other summary first. tata.
jia you sharon! you can do it. try your best.

My failed attempt of making mooncake...
that day me and jiejie excitedly bought the pre-mix for making mooncake, the mooncake mould and other essential ingredients. in the end the mooncake that we made was so horrible. it looks so gross that i think nobody dares to eat. in the end we were like laughing and moulding over the dough like it is some kind of plasticine.
it's okay. i got another packet at home. i will try to make it another day to see whether it will be more nicer in texture.
went to foodfair with mom and feimei yesterday. ate satay and my ma la fishballs again. this time round it was much more spicy. but i like it to be more spicy so ya it was good.
jiejie has gone to hongkong for a half holiday and half company work trip. she will be there until 20th Sep. so another 13days before she comes back. i bet she will eat and eat and have so much fun there!
yesterday i drank a milk tea with pearl from the new shop near the mrt that tastes like condensed milk with water.
so later i will have to read on the major project proposal to prepare for the interview on tuesday and i will be making rolled oats cookies later.

so we went to siam kitchen instead. the food there is quite nice except that it is a little too spicy. i didn't know that there got set lunch too. my colleague treated me to the meal when i said i wanted to pay him back. oh well. thanks ah! nice to see them again after one month of not working there. haha.
went for driving lesson today and i am excited cos i am going to learn parking soon. next week! hehe. today i learnt three point turning in the car park and did somemore U-turns. but i hate it when people cross the road out of no where. make me have to brake so abruptly.
tml is mooncaking making day! hope it will turn out to be nice!
