Two days to my birthday! ZOMGG. ):




I currently have a serious lust for macarons. Puay first introduced them to me, but they never really struck me as something that I'd enjoy eating. Never got around to tasting them until sometime last year at Bakerzinn but those macarons weren't exactly very nice. Puay said the ones from Cenele are much better, but at $2.45 each, I kind of stayed away. Until just now. My mum decided to be really nice and bought a little box of six macarons home as my birthday 'cake'. Haha, well, I didn't mind, at least I had some eye candy on the table! I think after eating the macarons my family has been converted to macaron lovers. Haha, they're really nice! My favourites were the rose and violet flavoured ones. Ahhh they were all so pretty on the plate I couldn't bear to eat them! Maybe I'll try making my own batch of macarons someday.. But making macarons isn't easy, or so I've read. I hope I get the motivation and perseverance to do trial and error until I perfect it. They make lovely presents too! (: And a nice break from my chocolate ganache brownies. Aw man, just look at them, they're sooo pretty! All those colours and all.. (:

Anyway, I totally love the weather these past few days! Cold, wet and rainy. (: Reminds me of my days in Cedar when I'd cuddle up in my Cedar jacket and walk around school. So comfy. (: Though the thunderstorms mean that Kiera's been really cowardly. She keeps scratching at the office door to be let in. And once I let her in, she stinks up the whole room because she got wet. End up building a barricade in a corner so she won't walk around. Stupid dog. But I love her anyhow. (:

Watched Marley and Me on Friday with my brother, Puay, my aunt and her partner. Omg I cried so much haha. Reminded me so much of Dino.. Especially when Marley was old and dying UGH. Felt like an idiot haha but I think the movie really portrayed Marley's owners' feelings well when Marley was dying. I could imagine what my dad was going through with Dino. Ohwell. I miss Dino! ): Dinner at Tanglin Club after that - my aunt treated! Then went to Borders to browse. Sent Puay home then took train all the way back with my brother. It was a nice train ride. (:

Brian has ATEC this week! I hope all goes well for him.. Especially since about 18 vehicles (including 4 tanks) will be looking to him for the directions and orders since he's the PC for that little platoon. Omg I hope he doesn't screw up! May God be merciful and grant him no rain throughout his time out field too! So that he won't get drenched. I'm so sad he won't be out this weekend. ): Sigh, gotta wait until the following week before I can see him again!

Puay's gone off to Bangkok - I hope she gets nice stuff back for me! If not just a pair of cheap flipflops can already. (:

Is my eighteenth birthday a good enough reason to see you again, or at least hear your voice?
If only you knew how much it hurts.
To see your face in places I would've known about before.

Silence hurts the most.
