19 & 20 March 2014
Within this two days I add on four more certificates to the lists I've collected along my journey to a lifetime of learning.
I had 'dragged' Jeff and Jessy to participate along.
The first three certificates were for culinary while the last and most challenging one was for the 2km night heritage walk in conjunction with earth hour. We were totally unprepared for the '1000' steps climb. We did reached the finishing line alongside the other 4000 or so participants but not without the aches and pain. Not for me and Lydia but more for my two other buddies ;)
Living in my world- Comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to follow the clouds, laughter to kiss the lips, sunsets to warm the heart, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for the eyes to see, friendships to brighten the days , faith so that we can believe, confidence for when in doubt, courage to know oneself, patience to accept the truth and... Love to complete my life.

Four Certificates
A Date with Annie 6/3 / 1016
A continuation of yesterday's date with Chef William Tan and his chocolate and cappuccino products.
Today's workshop was however done at Tshun Nyen studio.
Mood For Baking 15/3/2016
With the weather so darn 'hot' during the day, laziness to do much of anything was a constant excuse.
My attending baking workshops however invited the mood to do some home baking. Mores with much of my baking ingredients nearing to their expiry dates.
Today I baked sweet buns and a fruit cake. Both turned out successfully.
A DREAM
A power nap turned out to be a two hour affair. My afternoon slumber gave me a dream so real tht I woke up sobbing. Probably because I 'saw' Andrew again.
* We just moved to a new house with three bedroom. I saw the rooms with few stuffs but no beds. We were sleeping on the floor though with mattresses. Though I didn't see it but my knowledge was that
Everyone slept in the master bedroom which was meant for me and Jeff. Another room was given to Lydia while another was for the two girls when they come home for holidays.
House was in Mandalipau in my mind but in the dream I saw a link house in a housing estate.
Next scene. ..Justin Dangatil was in my dream. We were having a house warming gathering. He gave us two grown male dogs. One was very vague but another one was a black and white spotty furry dog. I asked where he got them from. He answered with a smike and said they were ones I gave him before. I say need to neuter them already and I can see them running around sniffing the compound. That's when I saw the neighbourhood with few other houses that looked alike.
Andrew came to the picture. ...he agreed that them dogs must be neutered.
DREAM
**I dream of walking round and round trying to find the right way home. I am walking with Yona

A dream 1-2-2017
I dream...
1. Waking up in the morning finding Lydia getting ready for school . With a few of her friends around. Changing tshirts as they were going to take picture at the studio.
2. A can of condense milk spilled at the kitchen counter next to the window. I was angry be cos no one clean it as I was sure someone saw it. I ended up cleaning
3. My old classmate frm form 5 Hj Katijah came to the house . I asked her was there a problem to which she said yes money problems. I snapped who doesn't have money problem
I Graduate in Portuguese Tarts making
My deal with Jeff was that I got to clean the cages at home while he does cleaning at the condo since class starts at eight.
I finised mypart with a good half an hour to spare playing with the show cats.
My friend matron Mary came as the same time as me. No breakfast was provided so we went on by ourselves to have it at the shop near to the college. Mary's treat.
Got paired with a fun group so the whole course was so much fun. Other than that the lack of tart moulds saw us having to wait till the two to finish baking all the tarts.
Mary and I went on to get sheet margarine at Annie's for our test run at home. Stopped over to get goreng pisang by the stall next to DIY. Again Mary's treat. We got home by three.
-Jeff 'shoots' the back compound
-No me no lunch for everyone :|
- late visit to the condo as we to Kak Chill 's for dinner
- finished a beaded egg
-'dead' in lala land by eleven.
Overall a good and long but fulfilled day.
