Can I Have This Dance

Cookies Craze...

There was the time when we were a kid and we waited for the school bell to ring...
Being so excited to run back home at the end of each school day...

Well, some things never really changed. Undergoing industrial training now, I would be the most excited on Fridays. Waiting for the weekend to arrive.. Finally it's here! Yahoo!! The long wait is always worth it. I would be the most energized the whole day.. Because finally, you don't have to work on Saturdays and Sundays!! Monday I guess most of us have the lowest productivity. Like the song by Bangles..

Just another Manic Monday, wish it was Sunday!!! XD

Somehow this weekend was rather lonely, I guess I was waiting for something to happen, some miracle perhaps. Bored at home.. So, I decided to bake.

CHoColaTe Chips Cookies!!

The Ingredients:

Sifted Plain Flour

Sifted Baking Powder

Butter

Sugar

Mix all the Ingredients and bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 180 degrees Celcious. Bon Appetite!! Try baking, it was really fun especially when others love the cookies too.

~ My Secret Wish ~

I was really bored walking around The Curve at Damansara. .. So I decided to have a look at the pianos at the Music Store. There was a baby grand piano that immediately caught my eye. It was 5"3' in height and shiny black colour. I decided to feel the keys. The sound produced was so beautiful. I was so mesmerized. Imagine having it at my house's living room.. WOW!! Everything was so harmonious and melodic... like a wonderful piece of music sheet.. and then .....there goes...




RM 60, 000++ ....


Stop dreaming!!! Reality check... I guess I have to be thrifty and start saving by now. One day it will come true!

When you've lost interest in thing you used to love to do....
When you are all alone....
And you realize...

All the world is a stage...
And everyone have their parts......
What role do you play?
How do you know which way the story goes?
How can you mend a broken heart?

RAGE Trailblazer..

Last weekend was an unforgettable one. Paticipated in the RAGE Trailblazer competition in Perak. This is an event organised by the Star Publications along with Maybank Graduate Banking for sixth formers and tertiary education students. Being there was like a reunion of my own varsity mates.... So many of our fellow uni mates were there at the competition. Every now and then, you bumped into someone you know!! Before the competition began, everyone was strolling around the Taman DR. recreational park, enjoying the picturesque environment. The overgrown trees bring solace and peace to the environment. Little did we knew that teams are grouped into clusters before the race. Teams were divided into clusters where we were identified by colours, namely, light blue, red, orange, cream, yellow and green. I was an orange. It was really a bright colour! No kidding. .. Before long after registering, 31 teams in a cluster were competing against other clusters.

Many challenging games that require both mental and physical strength were played. The games were inspired by the rich and wonderful history of the glorious town, Ipoh and Papan during the tin mining days. Giant sized abacus, milking from saya beans and tin mining was just to name a few. To add to the fun, financial planning were involved in the games. There were make shift booths where some booths offered loans, some booths offered savings account while another offer items to be rented. Cluster that managed to collect the most amount of money by the end of the preliminary round gains entry to the final round. By the end preliminary round, the Cluster that emerged the top was the light blue team. Orange did not made it to the finals. Nonetheless, we were the top half of the Clusters. Amazing prizes from lucky draws were given to partipants. I had gained many new friends and a group of wonderful cluster mates. We managed to keep contact and keep in touch even after the competition.

During the final round, the light blue team went to ghost town, Papan Perak. Teams relive the glorious days of Papan for the once rich and populated mining town. Teams had to decorate traditional Malay costumes, learn to sing Chinese Opera, research on local heroine Sybil Karthigasu and lots more. Above and beyond all, teams got the chance to experience the rich and diverse culture of Perak. These cultures must be preserved.

In a nutshell, we had a great fun! Teamwork and coordination were essentials.
