So.... what did I get up to today?
.....
In fact... it's nothing that special..
No outings whatnot :P
But... a baking day it is! :)
Attempted to make pasta-tuna bake and pandan sponge cake!!!! Trying to make at least 2 diys (cooking-related of course haha :P) in these remaining holidays haha :P Plan for tomorrow: making 2 sweets aka desserts hehe ;) I won't spoil the surprise for you guys n gals first... I'll do so promptly tomorrow haha! XDD So make sure y'all come n check out this page tomorrow night!! ;)
Didn't took a photo of the pasta-tuna bake cos..... it was all devoured before I can take a shot of it... but it looked nothing special (in my opinion).. just typical kinds :P
However.........
The pandan sponge cake took a completely different turnover aka unexpected results.... yet pleasing at the same time haha :P
Let me tell y'all what is this exciting news about.....
So I usually make those pandan sponge cake following from a recipe.... but today... my mum was like make moreee! Cos my family LOVES pandan cake! :P like no jokes haha.... So I was like okay... let's double the recipe......
And off I did....
.... then the result came out with: *shown below*
At the start (aka the top two pictures), I was getting excited as it turned out alright.... just a bit tad bigger from the normal size and also more rounder like a mushroom base haha :P...... then the moment of truth came out when I sliced it :P I gawped at start.... I was like oh no, it's not completely cooked yet... but then I saw steam coming out.... that technically meant... it's cooked, done, viola etc etc... I touched it... yes... it's hard..... but why so... did it looked like this? There's really a certain distinct two layers in the cake, the top, yes, really does look like what I wanted to be - a sponge cake! But then, the bottom layer, on the other hand.... totally do not look like a sponge cake. at. all..... my mum said it looked like those typical malaysian kuih/kueh... it sure does.... and taste like it too! Miracle haha! A combination of cake and kuih/kueh! BINGO! XDD Twas a really random discovery from baking today!!!! :)

Sunday..... ALREADY... :P
............... and nearly Monday soon in about half an hour.... :O
So as I said yesterday, today I went to the BLIAWA new member welcoming session, where I was presented my BLIAWA vest... lol :P famz said they were gonna come with me today... but they bailed at the last minute... wakawaka... leaving me all alone :P *I swear majorities of the time I was waiting in the sitting area.... I'm labelled as a "l-o-n-e-r"*
Side pic: the vest perfectly folded in a plastic sleeve-ish. I'll take a pic of me wearing this in next Sunday's post cos I have to wear it that day, as I'm part of the one of many groups to be an offering person at the Sangha offering ceremony at the temple.
Below's the information if your in Perth and also interested lol:
Date: 28th July (Sunday)
Time: Around 10ish am at the main hall
Venue: Fo Guang Shan Temple (the one in Guildford, I'm pretty sure it's the only one too at Perth haha :P so it will be fairly easy to find)
As soon as it was finished, walked out of the main doorway, got given the "holy water" - does that make me very holy haha? and some kind of red bean bun (dunno what's it called, got a name... that I know of haha XD) by a Reverend hehe :)
Then, went down to the dining hall to have lunch.... by myself :( but other than that, food's great! LOL. Very healthy too... considering twas vegetarian XD haha....
After lunch, had a rehearsal for the run-downs of what's gonna have to happen next Sunday :P swear the prac was soooo long that I kept on yawning lol.
La di da.... time ticked and ticked... FINALLY... ended! So good to get home straightaway afterwards haha! :P
Took this photo before I leave! The sky's pretty wow ay? ;) *so random*
So ya, that's it!
Goodnight everyoneeee! :)
Love,
Velene xoxoxo

YO/HEY/SUP ALL!

So! As the title said it all in one nutshell, today was amazang!!! :D Had such great fun hehe spending with le cuz aka Nicole... you probably had read from several posts (link HERE if you wanna check it out/or not know at all... well don't fret... cos you will know after this post hehe... moving on... LOL! :)
Started the day off with a very very very very early wake up lol.... at around 6:30ish am...... don't wake up this early during holidays... only during semester... reason was mainly brah has tuition (ah... good old highschool times... lol.. thank goodness passed that stage!)... then had brekky at subway with the famz..... had the good old 5 bucks breakfast one....so gooooooood!!
Dropped da brah afterwards, then off to my cuz house! Arrived around 9:30ish....! Chatting somewhat in an hour before heading out! :)
So off we went... at around 10:30ish :) First stop, was the city! hehe XD
Went "shopping" hehe and ya know just casually...... *look below* ;) CAMWHORE TIME!!! haha
lol after that supposedly fun "shopping" we had, you will now know how healthy we were when... we.... started the morning off with bobateasss! hehe ;) *lol, I swear after I watched the video the FungBrosComedy uploaded, I have been saying "bubbleteas" as "bobateas" oh dear :P haha the great influence from youtube! Link is HERE if you have no idea what I'm talking about lol, go watch it! It's so trueee n also catchy too! ;)*
Yep! If you were thinking Utopia, then your right on da dot! That's where we went ooh la la haha! I ordered... as usual... rose milk tea with choc sagos lol.... hadn't have added toppings to my bubateas for like 1.5 month now..! Lol... feel so odd to "chew" while drinking my tea today hehe :P Nicole ordered the original milk tea with choc sagos too! hehe good old choice sticking with da original! ;)
Next up, Ben & Jerry's time hehe! ;) lol... the name ALWAYS reminded me of Tom & Jerry haha XD We both had the choc chip cookie dough!..... the best!! :D hehe who say we can't eat icecreams in winter haha? ;) yoloooooooo with the bubateas.... might as well with the icecreams muahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. *mindnote: I'll stop there... for now hehe ;)*
LUNCH TIME was upon us when we finished our delicious icecreams! :D So off we go, to the third stop!.. which was to Aisuru Sushi!! Ordered lunch bento pack... cos.. well it's lunch.. and also, cos we are so asians that we have to eat "rice" at lunch haha :P, and also the fact, it's worth it!!! LOL XD This was what we had!
Top: was what I ordered.... lol.. forgot to take a snap at Nicole's dish BUT she did film it and posted on her instagram.... click THIS if you wanna check it out! :)
Middle: MISO SOUP! :D
Bottom: caterpillar rolls hehe! ;) twas so yummay but once we were done with our lunch, we were SO FULL like no jokes, we had to quickly stuffed them in our tummies.... cos we so asians that we finish our food like obedient kids haha ;) XD
Since we were SO FULL after that hearty jap-themed lunch... we planned to go for desserts at the start but plan changed cos we were like nupe no more food for now... we need our tummies to slowly digest the food we just ate haha :P
Walked to TimeZone... wasn't a long walk but still worth it, ya know, just casually losing out some calories... eventhough it's technically actually not much calories at all LOL.. but still! Had so much fun at TimeZone hehe majorities of the times were spent there and so were our wallets haha! Yes! And we so asians that we took pics through the kawaii machines there (actually had no idea what they are called, feel free to leave behind what is the name heh if you can be bother haha!).
Yes! So after spending quite a lot of time there and finally satisfied ourselves, we finally decided to go for our desserts haha! XD Went to Superstar Waffles for... waffles haha! :) Since we were still kinda full, we ordered one and shared together! Ordered S'mores waffle! Literally, one of the best! Actually to be honest, all waffles there are pretty quite nice too! LOL :P Really sweet! So if ya a sweet tooth, must try it hehe! ;) Guaranteed you will have the best "waffles" time of ya life haha! ;) *no puns intended lol* eventhough it does sound very sarcastic haha...
After satisfying ourselves with the waffles, twas da hometime hehe! :)
Was mean to walk to the bus stop but we went to the other direction and ended up "wow-ing" ourselves with the sceneries near the museum and taking endless amount of pics haha!
Top: SO WOW RIGHT? ;)
Bottom: Yes... we were both wearing our boots... ;) Really a random photo I took lol :P
Ta-daaaaaaaaa!
That's pretty much it!
The End of da post! :)
Haven't had written such a long dedicated post for quite a while now! :P
And as I typed this post out, my hands were trembling all the time... man, this weather's too cold now.... needa buy myself some gloves XD haha sometimes XD
Anyways, what's the plan for the rest of the weekend... well Sunday it is all left now for now haha :P Tomorrow, gotta wake up quite early too... no :( don't wanna leave my cosy warm bed :P Had to go to da temple to receive my BLIAWA vast and membership handbook (lol, sound so h-o-l-y! :P) since 'rents were like hell persuasive on me joining this n that at the temple earlier this year :P I'll post some pics up tomorrow! :)
