Happy National Day!

You Know Better Than I

Here's a song that I love from the cartoon "Joseph King of Dreams". The story is about how Joseph endures hardship from his brothers for being the favoured child (he got sold as a slave by his brothers) to in the end being a ruler. This song is when he was down and out - hope it gives you some encouragement as it did for me. I thought I did what's right I thought I had the answers I thought I chose the surest road But that road brought me here So I put up a fight And told you how to help me Now just when I have given up The truth is coming clear Chorus 1: You know better than I You know the way I've let go the need to know why For You know better than I If this has been a test I cannot see the reason But maybe knowing I don't know is part of getting through I tried to do what's best But faith has made it easy To see the best thing i can do Is to put my trust in You. Chorus 2 For, You know better than I You know the way I've let go the need to know why

Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward. -- Kurt Vonnegut

The most shy one around The courageous " AYAM !" Trying to scratch my hand Going for the kill. Can anyone with cats please let me know how I could get in contact with them without me getting hurt in the process? I've obtained about a few scratches now!

Cupcakes take 2

Over the weekend my bestie Summer came over to bake cupcakes. It was her first time and I'm not very experienced in the baking Dept either..surprisingly the cakes turned out pretty good! My mum wrote down the recipe and she kinda guided us in the beginning, then the rest were in our shaky hands! So our baking quest began.. Summer measuring the brown sugar Adding the chocolate paste (tasted foul on it's own!) to the mixture of sugar and butter. (thank God the mixer worked this time around! Check out my previous cupcake horror here ) Just beat it, beat it.....the batter's done - after adding in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder, eggs, essence of vanilla and milk The babies are ready to be baked! Into the oven you go! Experimenting with the amount of batter we used..loved this popped fairy cakes result! Then we did the topping - cream cheese!! =D First I tried out to design the topping..but Summer's got the knack of it..mine came out all silly. lol Summer
