Beef up!!!

Finally, after 7 weeks of long long holiday,

my semester 2 in NP starts again!!!!!

Well, i wouldn't say it's a very very much anticipated thing for me,

but i would say, it's time to get my life back to the normal track....

So, this semester i will be doing 1.1,

and having 7 modules which includes 2 IS,

namely, Microeconomics (MIEC), Business Communication (BCOM), IT in Business (ITB), Business Management (BMGT), Finacial Market and Services (FMS), Creative and Applied Thinking Skills (CATS), and Sports and Wellness (S&W).....

We assumed and heard that MIEC is much more dull than MAEC but easier to score,

however, it turns out that most of us are stunned when doing the first tutorial homework for MIEC.... -.-

For BCOM, we had already heard about it's "dullness" long time ago,

and i would say everybody hates BCOM.... Well, the experience for BCOM to me so far is..... a dull module with a fair tutor..... when i say "fair", means that yet to be concluded......

But one thing for sure is BCOM is something like english lesson, so can expect some Chimglish in the class...... OMG

For ITB, for god's sake, a freaking boring module with a freaking lame lecturer....

BMGT, a pretty ok module but with an old lecturer who claim that she had taught in NP for more than 30 years.....

FMS!!! Finally, got to study for a module that is related to my Diploma..... the first lecture seems to be quite ok.... not too chim yet and still acceptable....

CATS.... well, i used to have phobia towards this module, because first, i am not a very creative person, secondly, i had heard lots and lots of sad story about how this IS module screwed up their perfect GPA..... However, after meeting my tutor for CATS, my phobia had somehow fade off a bit..... The tutor seems to be a nice guy and... yeah.... i hope he is kind in terms of marking....

As for S&W, not much story to say but i chose soccer.... the coach seems to be a...... ok, yet to find a suitable adjective for him.... will tell you later..... LOL

As you all know that, i had been doing part time job during the holiday,

so i haven't been hitting the gym for like 2 months!!!!
That makes my muscle shrunk!!!! Arrrrggghhhhhh......

So, to compensate the time i had sacrificed to the part time job,

i had bought 2 big tub or is actually medium tub of whey protein to beef up myself!!!!

Well, to be frank, it's not cheap to buy that 2 tub of protein powder since i am not very rich.....

and also i will need a shaker bottle to mix the protein....

But i would say it worth it.....

I can grow much faster than without protein powder.....

and now, i am reporting to the gym at least thrice a week!!!!

Hopes to see the results in one month!!!!

p/s : Still thinks that things in GNC are overpriced a lot, but i still bought it.... how stupid i am!?!?!

First baking experience

In the past few days, my whole day was not in the best way that it could be....
I was sick.... and i am still sick now...... even though it's much better now....

So today, i decided to spend my day in a little bit more meaningful way....
I decided to bake a cake..... even though i plan to do so yesterday but didn't manage to do so due to laziness.....
So, since it's my first time to bake a cake.....
i decided to start off with something easier for me.... as a rookie....
It's a Coconut Steam Cake...... (椰香蒸蛋糕)
It's quite a delicious cake..... at least when my mum bake it.....
So, when it's my turn do bake it..... Not sure will it still be as delicious as what my mum did....
So, let's check it out~~~

OK.... first, i went out to buy coconut milk that is the most important thing in baking this cake....
So, i bought one coconut milk and place it in the pot and boil it.....until it slightly thicken up.....

From this to -------------------------------> This....

Ok, the next thing is prepare the egg and sugar and flour....
I need 6 eggs and 250g of sugar and 200g of flour....


After that, we will need to beat the eggs and the sugar until it raise......

From this, beat until ----------------> this....

Next, we will need to add in the flour spoon by spoon.....
Don't ask me why, that's what my mum told me.....hahaha



And then, we will need to portion it into 3 portion....
And the first portion, i make it into coffee flavor by adding in concentrated coffee mix....
The second portion, i remain in the original color with vanilla flavor, (even though in the end, i can't even get a bit of vanilla fragrance....)
The third portion, i make it into pandan flavor with apple green color..... (same as the vanilla....can't smell the fragrance as well) hahaha

Then, we will put the first portion into the steamer to steam for 10 minutes.....


And then, the second portion..... and the third......


And, YEAH!!! ITS DONE!!!


Ok.... I would not say it's a tremendous success....
But, at least it's not a failure..... hahaha....
The layer suppose to be taller each.... but i used the wrong container to steam which is bigger in size.... So, it turns out to be bigger but shorter..... and the green color is a bit too much..... and the layers suppose to be more balance.....
And the cake is a bit dry.... other than that.... my mum say is perfectly ok...... hehehe

Oh ya.... you must be asking me, what's the black black tiny thing in the cake....
ok.... it's the "fillings"....
Well.... you can choose not to put any.... but i decided to make it more special....
So, i put nuts (almond, walnut and pine seeds) in the lower most coffee flavored layer,
and prunes in the middle Vanilla flavored layer....
And, raisins and dried cranberries in the top most pandan flavored layer.....
It's LOVELY....isn't it? LOL

Looking forward to bake the next cake..... perhaps tomorrow? =)
