3rD daY of Hari rAya pUasa = 3 SyawaL

Yikes! I just realised that it has been nine days since I updated my blog.(9 days = 1week, 2days :P) Actually, it is not that I forgot to update or something. It is all because of Hari Raya Eve. So, I had to help my mother with all the housework again o_0 During that six days, I spend my time wiping the staircase, moving some furnitures, shop for certain things like tidbits, vacuuming my bedroom and studyroom and many more. My family went to Geylang to buy new stuff. All of them went except for me. I was too exhausted to do anything so i just spend my time sitting right in front of the television.
Finally, the day everyone was waiting for arrived! I went to qiute alot of houses on the first day. And on the first day only, I collected more than $150. On the second day, my relatives on my father's side went out together. It was a tiring day. We went from one house to another. On that fateful day, I also discovered that my cousins also watch The Champion. That was when I thought that I got hope to watch it last night. And it's true! My uncle wanted to watch this Malay show but since all his four children wanted to watch The Champion, he changed the channel. Thanks, Uncle :P
It was almost midnight when we reached home. All of us were very tired but I was the only one who was hungry. So, after a hot bath, I cooked instant noodles for myself. Since there was no one to disturb me, I took my own sweet time to finish it up :P
Then in the afternoon, nothing much occurred. It was just me alone doing my own things. I planned to watch BRIDE AND PREJUDICE tomorrow and plan to write a movie review on it. I can't wait for tomorrow. o_0

yahOO! i PasS my tEst!

Today is such a fabulous day. I never expect such good results for my religious exam. I scored a hundred and twenty plus for my test. I got third in class and I received a certificate for that. But Afiqah scored so much better than me. She got first in class with the score of a hundred and thirty-nine. Humph! She beats me everytime. Maybe I’ll try harder next year.
Well, you must be wondering why I never post on Friday and Saturday right? Ok. I’m sorry because I helped my mother shift some furnitures. They are sooooo heavy. After that, I was soo tired that I slept after I broke my fast.
I got to go now. My mother needs me now than ever. Byes!

pr0jeCts, pRojEcts & morE prOjeCts

It has been quite some time since I had do some art work. Seriously, I can die of boredoom very soon if there is nothing for me to do soon. You know that I had been busy with household chores lately. However, everything has to come to an end. So, I’m left to either face the computer screen and spoil eyes or read books that will also spoil my eyes because I have a bad habit when I read books. Fortunately, rescue came for me just in time. My youngest sister, Zafirah came back from school with a big grin on her face. I did not notice this at first. My mother was the one who ask about the big grin. When Zafirah told my mother about her school projects, my mother made a look on her face. I can figure out what she is trying to say: Why you have so many projects?? Then, at that point of time, I knew this is something I could help. So, I volunteered my self to do all her projects. First, I did her Malay project. It was a very easy project to handle. I just throw in some pictures and information then… tada! One down another one to go !J When night falls, I did the final project for Zafirah. It was supposed to be an art masterpiece. So I took a long time, trying to brainstorm. I was thinking of making a flat, cottage and many simple things. However, I like things that I do to be outstanding so I decided to build a castle. It was build with the use of scrap materials. It ended up to be a beautiful piece of artwork. =) Hope that my sister’s masterpieces ( actually belong to me because I do it) will be displayed ar the end of year exhibition.

aCropHobiA Is s0 ScaRy...

Today is a most gruesome day ever. I helped my mother wipe the windows. Nothing scary right? Well, I think its scary since I was wiping the windows of my study room which is located at the second storey! Many people would think that it is nothing scary but it does not apply to some group of people like me. I think its called acrophobia, fear of heights. It’s not that scary when I was wiping the window grills because I kept the windows closed.
Alas! The time came when I had to open the windows. After wiping the inside part, I had to move on to the outside ones. As my hand was tired, I took a break before I break. I looked out of the window. It was a wonderful sight. However, when I looked down, I felt nauseous instantly. I felt like there was nothing to support me and I was losing my balance. That was the worst thought that has ever crossed my mind. -_- Luckily, I pulled myself together. I also noticed that this was the perfect chance for me to overcome that particular phobia. So, what I did was to stare at the ground below me. At first, I was a bit frightened, my muscles were tensed. Slowly, I realized that the fear is disappearing from me bit by bit. Then, at this certsin point of time, I felt that I was just staring at the ground, having no thoughts at all. It struck me! I’m not hiding in the shadows of acrophobia! I did it!
After wiping those dusty windows, I hang the curtains. It is very tiring to hang those curtains. I bet it would be much more tiring if the curtains were heavy. At last! I am done with the work. I think it is worth it to receive $2 from my mother for doing it because I get to overcome the fear that would be so useful to me in future. =)

co0kIe N co0kIng sEssIon

I’m so, so, very sorry about yesterday. o_0 I didn’t mean to just sign off yesterday. I had to catch my favourite television programme, The Champions.
Well, today is a baking cookies day. My siblings and I helped my mother baked two kinds of cookies; one is almond cookies and another is something to do with cornflakes. Afiqah and my mother went to the market early in the morning to buy the ingredients. I think they knew where to get them because they came back in less than an hour. They were very easy to be made. We managed to finish two types of cookies in just three hours. I guess it takes up team work :P
After a long period of rest( by watching Baby Looney Tunes on KcdC), I helped my mother do the laundry. She was qiute busy today, so I thought of sharing the work load since I had nothing to do. When the cookies were baked, the smell that was coming out of the oven was simply marvelous. Because my siblings were fastng, all they could do was to drool when my mother left the cookies on the table for it to cool down. :P My mother also taught me how to cook Fish and Chips. It is very easy but because I have short-term memory, I had to write the recipe inside my notebook before everything gets flushed out of my head. Hehehe :P
Then for the rest of the day, I finished up the novel that I had been yearning to finish; Dracula. It is a very spooky story, I’d say. If I were Mr Hawkins, I would have ran away from the castle the next day. I can’t believe he is so stupid to stay there for more than a month. Anyway, I think that creepy stories like Frankenstein and Dracula has different ways of freaking their readers; especially when they are reading at night….

Spr!ng cLeaNing tIme!!

I don’t know why, but I have been busy with a lot of things lately. I helped my mother a lot today( although she’s fine now). I helped her with the curtains, clothes and many more. Well, I think its time for spring cleaning anyway. After helping my mother, I cleaned up my table( which is like a rubbish dump). After two hours of cleaning up, I had a pile of papers( more like rubbish to my sister) next to my desk. I erased away the pencil markings on my table, which is practically on every corner. Finally, I got rid of all the rubbish. Whew! It really takes up a lot of hard work. When I looked at my table, I’d say that my two hours did not go down the drain. Yikes! Its nine already ! I really have to go. Byeiz!

cHickeRy TimE!

I’m so dead tired. My mother is quite ill today. I guess it’s all because of stress or maybe lack of sleep. So not long after the potato incident, I’m back there; in the kitchen. I don’t have that much cooking skills(of course, I’m just a sec. one pupil), so I just ‘ransack the kitchen’ in hope to find something that is easy to cook. While I was in the kitchen, my second sister, Afiqah, taught Zafirah( still recites her timetables wrongly). Finally, I found some chicken in the refrigerator. That gave me the idea of cooking chicken rice. However, there was a huge problem; I only know how to fry chickens!(lame right?).
Frantically( lack of time before breaking fast), I flip my mother’s cook book just to find the recipe for chicken rice. I can tell you its very troublesome. I almost gave up and wanted to buy outside food, but since my father’s not around, I got no cash at hand and I didn’t want to disturb my mother, I forget about that idea. After a few minutes of search, I got hold of the recipe. I followed the instructions very carefully, fearing that everybody will become sick after eating my chicken rice. At last! Everything was settled except for the chicken. This time, I asked Afiqah to help me with it. She is a year younger than me but her cooking skills are so much better than mine. I guess its all because she is my mother’s shadow( no offence mate :P). Seriously, I don’t even don’t know which stall I should get the item from. That’s why my mother asked me to tag along with Afiqah if she’s going to the market. :P
So, it’s time to eat! I was very nervous when my family members start digging in. Since it looked appetizing, I just ate my share. I can’t believe it was that delicious after all it was my first time cooking that dish. After an hour, I had stomachache. I told my mother about it. While she put some medicated oil on me, she told me; ‘ I think the dish has nothing to do with your stomache. In fact, its because of the numerous times you had your serving of chicken rice.’ At that point of time, I am sure my face turned red of embarrasment. o_0
