BUSY BUSY BUSY! Just had a one week break last week, but I was soooo busy I didn’t get to touch my books at all. And it seems like I’m falling sick. Argh!

Well, February’s gone and March is here now… So GOAL SETTING TIME!

In February, I managed to run twice, baked a failed strawberry cake, and improved my Photoshop skills a teeny weeny bit. On top of my personal goals, I also clinched the Marketing Director position in E.y.E, so honestly, February was one hell of a month (ESPECIALLY SINCE IT ONLY HAS 28 DAYS! Squeeze 31 days of hell into 28, not good at all).

I realized I was overly busy in February, and I ended up not having enough time to spend with Ivan. Seriously, it’s not easy balancing school, CCAs, and a relationship, and everything has been going smoothly only because Ivan’s such a tolerant boyfriend So for March…

• Spend more time with Ivan
• Catch up on my schoolwork
• STOP WATCHING SHOWS (or max 1 a day…) and be more focused + productive (THIS ONE FAIL ALREADY LA…… I’VE BEEN WATCHING SIMPSONS EVERYDAY!)
• Run 6 times (HAHAHA) Run 3 more times woo!
• Bake heart-shaped cut out cookies

To end off, here’s my 6 year old cousin GROOVIN’ hahaha. This happened while we were baking one Saturday night, and I have totally no idea why he’s dancing HAHAHA. Oh and if you notice carefully, he has a flour spot on his head. And this is what he said ‘Eh Samantha jie jie, see I am apunehneh’. So 20 year old me will now say, KIDS! Hahaha! Oh Oh and, I’m actually saying “Chao slack de leh ni men (Super slack ley all of you)” because my sister and cousin were supposed to be helping me with the mixing and baking but they were fooling around, leaving me to do all the hard work! Ugh! Anyway, enjoy!

Love, Samantha

Today I woke up and told myself ‘I’M GOING TO BAKE A STRAWBERRY CAKE!’

So, I excitedly took all these photos as I did all my measuring, mixing, chopping, blending, etc.:

Sadly, after putting the strawberry cake into the oven for 15 minutes, it was not hardening up AT ALL. Imagine your cake, wobbling like a jelly. Because of a wrong measurement in the amount of strawberry puree to mix in, my strawberry cake attempt FAILED.

Honestly, I’m not used to baking failures. Hahaha. Seriously, if you follow the recipe, it should work, shouldn’t it? So yeah, I didn’t follow the recipe properly so what the hell. I decided to console myself and attempt to prepare baked potatos. Not bad for a first attempt (sorry, ate most of it already before I took out the camera):

Love, Samantha
