Saving Disasters!

Today we did lots of baking, Zy and I. I baked her a cake. A nice chocolate cake~ It’s really dense though. Wonder why it didn’t rise so much. I’m wondering whether it’s supposed to be like that.

Well, anyway, if you find you have whipped your cream into submission um.. I mean. Overwhipped your cream until it starts to turn to butter, (little bits of solid will start to form) THIS IS HOW YOU SAVE IT! (only applies if you’re planning to use it as icing)

Add cocoa. And icing sugar. Mix until smooth.

TA-DA~ chocolate buttercream. Or something like it. It tastes like cream. Don’t waste your cream!

In other news, a body has been found near known criminal hideout of The Mewer. The body has been severely mauled to the point of being unidentifiable. Pictures are unavailable at this moment. The noted absence of testicles on the victim has been ascertained to be an original trait of the unknown victim, instead of the initial assumption that The Mewer had taken them as trophies. Please stay tuned, as we figure out exactly what got the dreaded Mewer to unleash her claws once again on this poor, most probably a jackass victim.

Lalala.

Alright. So the long and short of it is, I’m not loved. Or remotely liked. In the sense that you probably get what I’m talking about. Ignored. And it’s quite depressing. But anyway.

Yesterday went for dinner with the aunts and uncles. We ate at this seafood place. Took some fascinating photos, which I shall share with you now along with photos taken earlier. Let’s begin.

Photo of, if I’m not mistaken, Roborovski hamsters. Really cute, and really small, and doing a pyramid. They do as all hamsters do, and huddle and sleep. This one though, is being mischievous and climbing on his sleeping fellows.

Me and Shawny camwhoring in school. Fun times, fun times.

The guardhouse cat. Loves to be petted. And very manja. I don’t know where he is now though. This photo was taken last year.

Kissing teddys! We’d bought little teddy handphone accessories for the seniors for our Music Club AGM last year. We also put them in lines and had Lines, with teddy prefects. Didn’t manage to take a photo of that though.

A sperm some genius drew on a table in Universiti Malaya in liquid paper. ‘Nuff said.

Sher has this beautiful side profile. I should draw him some day. This was taken in boredom during the Math Olympiad thing. Sher is currently in goodness knows where, studying for the Math Olympiad. He got chosen to go to the next stage.

My niece, Charlotte. The absolute cutest thing on Earth. She can’t speak properly just yet, and she’s really tall, but she’s just 2. She loves me lots. When I went for Xmas dinner, she insisted that I be with her all the time, and when she got sleepy, I helped her get ready for bed and she curled up on my lap, sucking her pacifier until I went home. The next time I saw her, she’d happily run to me and scream ‘jiejie!!’ whenever she spotted me. I totally heart her.

For comparison. Charlotte at one month. I think she knows my smell.

Yeow Ji Mi. The new Him? Or the old one… HMMM. In any case, He ALWAYS POSES FOR PHOTOS. Swt.

My new blouse for Chinese New Year~ I love it to bits. Very sexy and elegant. Chinese New Year is the only time I actually deign to buy pink.

Your greatest nightmare : GEODUCKS!!!! Pronounced gooey-duck. Very obscene, but considered a delicacy. RM200 per large geoduck. Hand shown for reference.

The family had crab. I helped crack them open. It looks very… gruesome. I killed someone.

Suspected murder weapon.

And just for kicks, the table next door had this jelly cake. SO CUTE.

AND FOR MORE KICKS, HERE IS ZY IN AN AFRO. 8Db

That’s all for today. I’ll have another fun photo blogging experience some other day. Ta~

OH AND THIS TOO.

I totally forgot. I wanted to do this. Nobody tagged me, but it looked fun so I yanked it.

Dear (insert name of choice here~) :

I don't really know how to tell you this, but I dislike you. I think I realized it last year at the Hare Krishna graduation and I saw you sit on my father. I'm sure you're middle-class enough to understand that I did a sex change. I'm returning your ring to you, but I'll keep your collection of butterflies as a memory. You should also know that I never openly mocked our friendship.

With ease,
Kyme.

 

…This is rather lol material. I tag Zy, Najwa, Yuen Cheng, Ji Mi, and um… um. JI JIAN~

Hopefully we’ll get lots of lols.

….Hurhur.

Blog renovation, ahoy! …Or not. I’ll have to look for a better layout than this. I just realized that Blogspot doesn’t have the options that LiveJournal has, which is to set certain posts as private. Oh well. This shall now be my non personal blog.

On another note, Youth 09 today! It was tiring, but the yoyo guys were really good. Met up with Zy and Ji Mi and Zaf. Felt kinda odd one out. Once I get the photos that Zaf took from Zy, I’ll post them. I volunteered for a really short pole-dancing workshop… –_-;; I’m so not sexy.

To be continued!

Hogwash.

I was looking up Jon & Kate Plus 8 on YouTube. The kids are cute, but Kate is rather irritating. I kind of don’t like her. I was watching the episode the other day, about how they decided to take all the kids on a skiing trip. And she was going on about how she WANTED her kids to experience things, and I remembered how on their website, someone had asked her about college funds for the kids. She answered, that she didn't know what they were going to do yet. She said she was hoping that God would provide.

And yet you watch them going on ski trips, buying each of their children ski equipment, new clothes, letting each of them learn whatever instrument they want and buying said instrument for them, and you start thinking, they're living it pretty easy. How can she say she's not sure about college funds, and hoping that 'God will provide', when they don't even seem to be making the effort to put away money for the kids? I'd rather save up all the extra money so that the kids can get a full education than use that money so that they gain new experiences, such as skiing.

At this moment, that QnA is not on her site anymore, but now, she has verses from the Bible up there. I mean, I usually don’t really mind Christians and their religion, but she is really really into it. Like seriously. Like oh, God, I am happy that You are wherever I go, I am glad for your omnipresence, and her favourite verse was something along the lines of as long as you place your hope in the Lord, you will have the energy, and goodness knows all sorts of things are promised. I do not enjoy religious people. Especially when they go around spouting religious stuff. Oh goodness, and how excited she gets about how great God is and how her kids are so excited too.

Personally, I fully believe that God is Man-made. Humans, as weak as we are, created God. So that whenever we think that something is just too difficult, or life goes wrong or… well.. anything for the matter. We put it up to this Divine Being. If it goes well, yes! God has helped me. If it doesn’t go so well, God didn’t want it for me. I respect His choice. In that way, life becomes much much easier. You don’t have to keep wondering. You don’t have to think or worry so much. Because God will always always be there for you.

No offence to the believers, but to me this is utter hogwash. How can people expect me to believe in the all-seeing Lord, who loves each and every one of us, when wars happen, people suffer and die, and all these horrible things happen? If God was so great, if God loves us all, why didn’t He do something? There are people out there who aren’t even given the CHANCE to make a better life for themselves, and they lose hope, and stop believing. And that means, they go to Hell. For what? For suffering their whole lives? And all those Holy Wars? I totally believe in the line from the Da Vinci Code, something along the lines of ‘ever since there has been One God, men have died in His name’. I don’t believe God would actively tell you to go and attack another group of humans, because they are infidels, and they are non-believers, and they threaten what God is doing. Because the other group of humans were also made by God. And God loves all his creations. Not to mention the other side would also say that God is on their side.

This omnipresence that Kate talks about, it was discussed in this book that my Dad bought, called the God Delusion, written by Richard Dawkins. It’s a fascinating book, and brings up all these inconsistencies. It is said that God is omniscient. Which essentially means, he knows every little thing that is going to happen. However, he made Man. And then Man became corrupt because of Satan and goodness knows what, and God was very sad because they were killing each other and all that and he told Noah to build his ark, and he flooded the world and killed everyone. Now, if God were really omniscient and all that, He’d have known all this was going to happen, and would have done something. I can’t remember the whole argument, just that it made hell of alot of sense. I should read the book properly.

And that’s my rant for the night. When I can’t sleep and have school in 5 hours.
