A place that captures your heart.

Lake District is a place that I really wanted to go since I first came to London. I was taught in class about the tourism prospects, sustainability and future development of that area. Finally, I have got this beautiful opportunity to travel with my travel partner in crime visiting this beautiful place. I just loved the calm and relaxing atmosphere. I sometimes wonder whether will I, much of a city person be able to spend my days at areas like these?? There are possibilities that I would say Yes! How could one resist a place of heaven???





This Japanese couple are adorable!!! Mr and Mrs. Hara were our travel mates throughout our two day stay.

Baking Fever

07082010 & 08082010 A date to remember for a baking fever. I was at Jessica's place for the weekend. Jersey was the cook and Jessica was the baker... We did enjoy ourselves and get pampered with food...















This cake is way nicer, softer and smoother than the sponge cake. Maybe its the right timing and the right ingredients used. Sponge cake was a little overcooked.








I was overwhelmed with outcome of the 2 days 1 night!!! Awesome time!!! Can't wait for the next round. Jess was indeed a talented baker..unlike me!! Haha...

The Pursuit of Happiness


I was sooooooooooo touched by the story. Re-watched it last night and I find that I can picture Zac in all the struggle!! This true story made me feel that I'm extraordinarily fortunate to have a comfortable life provided by my parents!! Everyone will encounter their ups and downs some day what not? Yet, the moral of this story teaches us not to give up and work hard for our dreams!! Needless to say, another round of applause for Will and Jaden Smith for their perfect performance!

Don't plan for the present

Bits and pieces that I would like to share is a phrase from a news that I've read recently.

"Don't plan for the present, don't be reluctant to let go of the past, don't worry about the future."

I do hope that I can be as calm and think like what this phrase teaches us to be! Simple things can worry me till forever!! How can I change this attitude?? Possibly meditation is something that could calm me down..haha! BUT!! If I don't even plan for the present, how can I afford to work things out the right way?? I need to have at least Plan A and Plan B for certain things that I do... so what does this mean then?? I can imagine if the slightest issues/incidents/worries, we should not plan and should relax and go with the flow.

See? Now I am thinking too much!!!

Patience is Bliss

Pinch that trouble maker who lives under the same roof as me and I'm proud to announce that he is finally GONE!!! Disappearing from the house! I have waited for 5 months long for this miracle to happen... Never say never...XD

It was a moderate weekend, Dim sum with Jess and Jersey..and does our usual bit - shopping! Now that I know, I'm allergic to Dim sum.. What had happened?? Haven't have a clue?!

I'm in doubt right now..
