Last baking lesson, & pawn changi tonight !

Played overnight mahjong.... damn shag! till 7am! but i still had to go for baking lessons later on, so i didnt get to sleep much! & i have to do this now...
In preparation for my last lesson, i had to ice my own cake first! first i get a ready made cake for only $1.95 from sheng siong! It's really convenient, & it didnt taste that bad, so it'll make a good cake for birthdays! only if u wanna make everything by hand! HAHAHA.

then i coloured the icing...PURPLE! cause this was intended as a surprise gift for Kai wei's belated birthday. AHAHHA.
then u spread it over, in chunks! and you rotate the cake around! & there you go! i'm not that skilled so that explains the edgy edge. furthermore, my icing wasnt' of the right consistency. It should be thicker!

Leave it to crust. & because it was too watery, i had to put it inside the fridge for it to crust.
so we are there.... we had to decorate our own cake & we learnt how to do the ribbon rose on our last lesson! (:
Allyson was so nice to teach us how to do the Wilton rose too! it's the one with more petals! it looks so awesome!

& this is my cake! yay! hope Kai Wei liked it! & it's not meant for her to eat, just to see see only. cause the cake expires the following day! HAHAHAS!
& this was Carmen's cake! i drew the cute piggy, & that's patrick ng. LOL.
Some other very lovely decorations done by the others..... it wasn't the best of our creativity, & the pictures didn't do us much justice. We had so little time to decorate! so i guess this is the best we could do in such a limited time




& we took one last shot with Allyson. She has been a very patient & lovely teacher! (:
& a group shot.
& in the afternoon, hwee kiat drove me to eat my long-craved for Bakutteh! I keep forgetting to take down their address/store name. so you guys could go try some other time. it's pretty good! & if you drive, it's free parking. it's in Katong. somewhere near Katong Mall (& it's under renovation btw)
Have i told you how much i love the life here at the East side?! almost every weekend i get to go out with bf's buddies & roam around the place for supper, mahjong & chilling sessions!

HAHA. this shot is damn kuku. we were playing veggie samurai on the ipad, until we got chased away by the staff there saying that we have to buy their stuff if we wanna play on their ipad. WTH. LOL.
settled for Swensens after much deliberation. it was a pain choosing the place because Yuxiang insisted on TCC, some didnt wanna go far, some didnt wanna eat 'high-class' food. HAHAHA. so we settled for this. convenient, & not so "HIGH-CLASS"!

Yuxiang's such a lamb! he's always happily posing for my camera (:
spot the camoflaged 'Starbucks'. HAHAHA!

I'm sorry, but i really hate starbucks! COFFEE BEAN ROCKS!
& by the way, just so you know, Yu xiang is really a CAM WHORE! lol. super hilarious!
& he likes the superman effect here. WTH. lol!

Yu Xiang's 21st!

this is yuxiang posing with my cute present! WAHAHAHhahaha. So thankful for the treat because the food is pretty good!
This is at Coca Restaurant, 4th level in Takashimaya. Some cleaner steamboat place. :D
so everyone wants a pict with birthday boy!
& so do boyfriend & i!
The food are served in small servings, so there's a menu for you to order whatever you want. They are famous for their fish glue, according to what i read from food reviews out there.

For us, it was more of fun trying to cook the fish glue! HAHAHAHAS! (remembering taking a picture of junwei but i wonder why is he not in my camera?!?!?!?! he was there too!)
This mango drink is good! Yummy! (:
HAhaha, alfresco imitation! it's located just next to the glass rims of that gigantic hollow space in the middle of taka, so it's got quite a good view of the christmas tree now (:
& birthday boy is in the mood for christmas tree cam whoring. so we made him take a picture with every christmas tree we see along the way! HAHA!
i like the warm colours!
& these retarded boys looked damn kuku with this tree! LOL.
Thereafter, we ran out of activities to do. Bowling in marina square was fully booked, & impromptu decision to see the Easy-A movie was thwarted as well --with only 2 front rows left, WTH ...

So we settled for Starbucks & i ate this peach cheesecake! i like the cheesecake, but not the crust nor the peach. I don't like syrup-preserved peaches, & the peaches obviously came from the can.
& the wonder of a Mac. but i wouldnt get it though, the specs are pretty far off from the others. I only liked the graphics & webcam. So i still prefer my Asus. :D

Mahjong game till 5am. Sleep-killer :/
