Just a quick random update. The mango sago pomelo desert was a success. Have posted the recipe and instructions here.

Have a look if you are interested, it is really easy and it's a great dessert. Plus, it has so far only gotten positive responses.

Will be trying more things over the weeks. All the best for the exams for. For the rest, hope you are having a smashing holiday! <3, Rachel Lian

Run baby run, don't ever look back.
black fades to blue and then into you.
When love is a raging sea, you can hold onto me. 
Days like this I wish the sun would not set. 
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right
I Wish We Could Open Our Eyes
To See In All Directions At The Same Time
Oh, What A Beautiful View
If You Were Never Aware Of What Was Around You
And It Is True What You Say
That I Live Like A Hermit In My Own Head
But When The Sun Shines Again
I'll Pull The Curtains And Blinds To Let The Light In

(: These are my photos from the trip to Phillip Island and Tarrawara Estate in Yarra Valley.
It was a good trip. Caroline came to town and we went for 2 little trips round Victoria. Though it was freaking cold and windy and Phillip Island, it was absolutely breathtaking. Though at one point my fear for birds was put to the ultimate test, it was worth it. The view was awesome. How can one look at all that and still not even wonder if there is someone who created all this? Not just an accident, but with care, and love.

It was two gorgeous days of relaxation. Two gorgeous days of spring before I came back to our 'sunny island'. It is good being back home in Singapore, living what Ting calls, and I totally agree with, my second, or first, life. Being able to see everyone again, is awesome. Being with my family, is awesome. I can feel the boredom just creeping up though haha.

So cook, bake and make I shall. Meals, deserts and all sorts. (: Oh and on a totally random note, it is not easy to drive with people like kiwi in the car. So squirmy and screamy. HAH. Learn from sebbe kiwi, he was so quiet in front. So guai.

Anyway, I have so many plans for next week, Exciting.

Monday: Meet Si Rui and Joyce
Wednesday: Meet shai and sng.
Tues/Thurs/Fri: Meet cousins/Meet grandparents/

MELISSA HOHO WHERE ARE YOU I WANT TO MEET YOU.

-the end-

Derek: Don't get me wrong i like the kissing. I'm all for the kissing. More kissing I say.

I don't know why I find that so funny. Maybe the way he said it. Hilarious.
From season 1 of Grey's anatomy.
Sometimes when I look back and remember that I first starting to watch Grey's Anatomy cause my mother was watching Grey's. HAHA.
Tomorrow I will be making Mango Sago Pomelo Dessert. If it turns out well I will post the recipe here.
I decided from now on I am going to start posting whatever I cook/bake here. (: I mean, why not? Anyway cooking has become quite a large part of my life anyway.
Sunday I am making pancakes for breakfast and making hand made noodles at night for dinner.
Caroline is coming on Monday and I am flying back Wednesday. WOOHOO.

The little robot man says hello.
Coming back next Wednesday. Quite exciting. But then again no. There is no anticipation somehow. Like yeah I am excited to see all of you and stuff, but there is nothing BIG to look forward to you know.
I suppose the little things are good enough. (:
Like my sister. My family. My friends.
We were just talking about how like compared to the trip earlier on this year, this one is alot less, exciting.
Maybe because I have to pack EVERYTHING in my room into boxes. BLAAAAA. The boxes just arrived today .mhou,hiou bijon ol(<-- typed my dino)

OH AND IT IS FREAKING HOT NOW. So i cannot imagine how hot it will be when I go back. It's too hot, I can't function or type properly. See you soon. <3, Rachel

Gir: [five minutes after eating it, crying] I miss my cupcake.

Hello friends.

Exam is over. (: And now I have 12 days of slacking till I am back home in Singapore. Hurrah.
Just sent Sarah off a few hours ago, right now she is probably getting reading to board the A380 back to Singapore.
The double life will soon begin. HAH.
I am looking forward to my friends finishing their exams so I can have guilt free fun. As for now, I will clean my room and start packing my stuff into boxes. Packing my life into boxes again.
Probably do some laundry and play SIMS. HAHAHAH.

Things to do when I am back in Singapore:
- Take over the car and go wherever I want, whenever I want, with whoever I want. (Probably should work a little to pay for petrol. But then again....)
- Eat chicken rice. Have not found good chicken rice here in Melbourne yet.
- Sleep in an air conditioned room.
- Iron my clothes(which have not been ironed for months)
- Hang out with cousins.
- Hang out with friends
- Deb's super early Birthday Bash.
- Christmas Party
- U connect Chalet
- Family Holiday
- Visit Hui Ting in Malaysia
- Try baking pretty cupcakes
- Go swimming, get a tan.
- Go to bedok reservoir to see the new boats. (anybody want to go back?)
- ... and more.

And I am pretty sure 3 months will fly by just like that. As for now, I have to go make my bed and start cleaning my room, SPRING/SUMMER CLEANING. <3 Rachel

Sometimes I get tired of walking
Through these ordinary days
If nothing else I get to see you
Even if we never speak..

Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest.
Just to say that I am still alive and the exam is coming.

It is a love hate relationship.
I suppose you could say it is like drugs, a rush for the moment and then when the temporary high is gone, you are left with nothing. Just a glimpse of vague memories. Just a faint recollection of 'happy times'.
What am I doing. And how do I stop.
No worries friends I am not having issues with drugs, cigarettes or alcohol.
I am perfectly healthy, physically and mentally.
It just seems that every time I take two stops forward, I end up taking 3 steps back.
It's like running on a treadmill at a pace not determined by you, if you don't keep up with the pace, if you don't keep running no matter how out of breath, you're going to fall.

I just stepped on the treadmill. And I have no idea what the pace is going to be. And I already feel that I am going to fall.

Don't fall. Keep running. Don't stop. Keep running. If you set your mind to it, anything is possible.
