getting away from work

For the last week, i've been working like.....xyz.
I mean even after i've got home, my minds were just too occupied with work.

I need to get away from this during this weekend. otherwise, there's no way for me to get back to a productive mode next week, which i can foresee even more busy than the last.

back to my favourite website, read a nice little tip on decorating your home with cheap stuff, this one cannot be more practical!!

Display Photos with Binder Clips
Original Purpose: Securing papers.
Aha! Use: Displaying photos, postcards, or recipe cards. Attach two 3/4-inch clips to the lower corners (or use a 1 1/4-inch one in the center) and place on your desk.
Reward: A high-visibility, low-commitment photo display (swap it in a week).

disappointing tim

Experience real disappointment this morning...hehe
nothing so serious, just find that i've lost some chance la.....

again, nothing so serious, it's just about people la.......

Happy Birthday Mino

Really wanna say Happy Birthday to Minori, my dearest friend in UK.

Mino, i tried calling but no luck. Left a voice message and hope you catch it before 16th April!!

take care and hope to come visit you this year!!

most expensive purchase

I've just made the most expensive one-time purchase in my life so far!

yep, finally a decent high quality lens for my rather cheap camera!

money can buy happiness, but not joy!
I'm glad that even without the money, I'm still a joyful person!

Matcha Macarons Making day

As i said in the last post, i was trying to make some matcha macarons according to the recipe provided by:

http://www.latartinegourmande.com/2006/12/10/macarons-or-victim-of-a-food-fashion-les-macarons-ou-victime-dune-mode-culinaire/

Sort of not really successful. The taste is great, just that the shape is not so right.

Haha, so i've seriously searched through to find some other recipes........
I will do this again tomorrow, determined to make the great taske + great looking matcha macarons!!

Here's the one made by the author of the recipe:

So mouth-watering!!

Here are those make by me:

I know they look so different, i know that!! hahaha!!

Weekend goals

Headache:

So many documentation to finish, yet, i really hate those "rubbish documentation".
Delivering Quality Technical Guide, Problem Diagnostic Guide is really time consuming.
But that is what i want to deliver.

However, the problem comes to, how much time should you allocate for each task?
I need to be more tactical i guess.

Having headache now at the office.....................

Here's my weekend goal:
1. Finish tidying of those stuff inside drawers + cabinets
2. Matcha macarons making
3. Finish up reading "Blink"
4. If i really got plenty of time, i'll probably tidy up my clothes as well, currently, i simple do not dare to open my wardrobe
5. Find my perfect Matcha Bowl.....................

Happy weekend!!

my room makeover

Real happy today, although with a tired body.

 

I've "remake" my room from 20:00 till 02:00....

I'm really satisfied for the make over this time because:

• i now got a small sofa in my room so that i can sit and read comfortably
• Getting rid of the big office table (although i am still fond of big and spacious working space), i am now having a lot more space in my room for cabinets and books!!
• The overall design is almost like a studio (except without a kitchen), with sleep area, reading area, makeup table, working area + a big piece of empty space for me to ly down a bit!
