Failure is a step closer to success!

Saw this article in today zbW and found it kind of inspiring! Many ppl r afraid of failure, as it's seems to be a setback. However, lookin at it in another way, it's actualli a step closer to sucess. A change of thought in lookin at things, life will be better! ya, tat involve trainin as well, to remind ourselves to look at things from another angle. @ e positive angle. We gain some, we loss some ya! It's a long way ahead~ gambate~

2nd try!

had funz, gatherin at Chen j hse. somehow, it seems like it was CNY. lolz. Mornin session, was there preparing the stuffs for cookin! I was there boilin e potato! Yap, tryin my hand on e patty again! This time round, I made 2 different type. One with normal potato, corn, mushroom, e other one with lot of oyster mushroom, which I wanted to make the chewy bite. The oyster mushroom one, was quite wet n I had to add lot of flour in it.

Lunchtime, our lunch was still not realli. Was in no more strength to fry the patty. Decided to put it aside 1st n slack there till lunch is ready. haha... finalli when it's ready, i was alr supr duper hungry!!! Ate our lunch at 2p plus! After that, I went to fry the patty. Was so nervous abt it, as don noe how it will turn out to be like.

Was fryin n I took a bite on one of the piece. haha. find it not salty enough... but there's no way I could remedy it le. Continue fryin the rest of e patty. Jus with 1 potato, i made 11 patty! Isnt that a lot! wow... e outlook was a bit different fr e one I made previously, as this time round i put a lot more flour.

e feedback, was tat, it was nice. haha. However, I felt that there still lot of room for improvement! I will try again next time, till i get it right, then I put them in burger with vegetable n sauce n tat will be my 1st burger! There lot of other food on my list that I wan to try out. e next one will be vege shark fin sharp and those starchy mee sua!

Changed in thinkin

I used to be very stun off when I heard abt working in area at Raffles Place or Tanjong Pager. As, there lot of white collar ppl working there n it's very crowded! Giving a very stressed up feelin! Especially when you see so many ppl at the mrt station, squeein here n there for the esc or stair case! Till when I was there... my thinkin some how changed.

It's not as scarey as it seems. Perhaps, is bcos I am gettin used to it, tat I felt that it's oki? Mornin time, before 8pm, the crowd at Tanjong Pager mrt was still oki, but after 8pm, the next mrt train came... there lot of ppl!!! realli a lot! That U have the breathless feel... too many ppl le. I don realli like such crowd, as I felt trapped.

During lunchtime, that area still quite oki. I could walk ard freely, not so many ppl! Feel kind of nice. I can walk to Amara Hotel for some shopping, or to walk to the opposite market place. It's not as scarey as wat I used to imagine abt. Wherever the place, e thing that matter most of realli e ppl tat u r in contact with. Anywai, it's jus a work, a job, as long as the company is good, tat's too good to ask for more. isnt it?

Funz 4B gatherin

Had a great time catching us with old classmates. Playin Taboo and have a great laugh with great funz. After tat went for chill out with some of them. Some chats abt Sec Sch stuffs. Didnt realise tat I still rem quite a lot of the little n silli stuffs. lolz. @ least it's a worries free gathering. e funz times, schooling days, which I had once experienced.

They say 好馬不吃回頭草, I'm not one then. haha. 2009 isnt quite a good yr for me, with stuffs botherin me and different encounters. Though initially realli kind of stressed up, thanks to my mum for being understandin n not pushin me too hard. She had been keepin this low profile for quite some time. Thus, with all these, I am in determination to make 2010 a good one!

History cant be changed, but as a learning ground for us. Wat we can change is the next step that we take. A simple analogy: when we are walkin, we will be looking ahead. If we are walkin with our head turning to the back, looking at the back, it's very hard for us to walk ahead. Look ahead and thus, we will beable to walk ahead to our final destination.

Burger Patty!

This is my 1st try! Always wanted to try my hand on cooking e burger filling n here it is! Was boswing the online website, lookin at the recipes how ppl make the patty! There's lot of different methods and style! Of course, as a starter, I choose e easily way out! Looking at e outlook, it's seems quite yummy ya! Haha...

Actualli, is 50% sucess. lolz. The outlook is nice, however, it's a bit soft. My mum feedback tat it's a bit of saltly. Yap, though I am tryin on this, most of the th, my mum helped with it. I scare of the fryin oil, she helped to fry e 1st few pieces. haha. Yap, bk to e taste, next time, I am thinkin of ways to make it better.

Next time round, I must add more flour to it. Also more mushroom, as mushroom will have the nice soft texture. Perhaps, can try out tofu patty or add curry power to it. Some ppl actualli add green chillies 2 it! Yap, this is potato patty! E ingredients used r: potato, pepper, salt, soya sauce, beans, carrots and mushroom.

Will try again next time. If I am sucessful, I will be creating e nice vege burger! Lookin forward 2 tat!

up up down down

Xin1 qing2 de4 up up, down down is terrible. The worried and anxious mind. The main thing drive down to the insercure feeling baz. Bcos, of uncertainy, not knowing wat lies ahead of me... will i be like this for long? realli thankful to the encourage from some nice ppl ard me! Chattin with them realli make me felt better.

?

actualli was feelin kind of stressed up. Have my own stand... normally when i am being short-change, I wont voice out, as it's oki, peace n harmony is wat I look forward to. Would onli stand up, if i saw tat other ppl r treated unfairly. However, now it seems a little bit too much. Desipte the odd against me, I would still stand by my values. However, when i look back, i seem to lost my bearin... especially when it was prolonged. Realli kind of long le... Wat sld i do? Not knowning if till then, would i stay have the courage n strength to react?

A day of gardenin

My mum was digging out the plant from the pot, wanting to add in new soil, thus, I decided to help her with it. Phew~ it was no easy work... Took so much strength and time to dig out the plant from the pot. To our surprise, it was so difficult to dig as it was all roots inside!!! Cut off some of the roots and all the soil was packed inside. Put in new soil and re-plant the plant.

Later, to change the soil of some of the other plants. Some to put them into bigger pot, some to put them to a smaller pot. Some of the plants didnt grow well as the soil was all wet. The soil @ the bottom of the pot was all hard n does not allow water to slip thr. No wonder, the plant was sick with brown spots and nv realli grow.

Was doing gardenin till it rainned heavily. Decided to replace the last pot and call it a day! Now felt refreshed after bathing! However, hungry also. haha. Fun times... Sometime, U loss some, but U gain some also ya. Me, gain the fun times in doing gardening.
