ice cream IS GOOD for sore throats

I TOLD U SO!

This is forall those who didnt believe me, & thats pretty much every single person I've mentioned this to.

Ice-cream is soothing for sore throats alright!
Check out this article ==> Adrian is RIGHT <==
Excerpt:
What to do for sore or irritated throat:
Eat soft, creamy foods such as cream soups, cheeses, mashed potatoes, yogurt, eggs, custards, puddings, cooked cereals, ice cream, casseroles, gravies, syrups, milkshakes, and commercial liquid food supplements.

And to further prove my point, I'm providing you with another article
==> Adrian is proven right AGAIN <==
Excerpt:
Simple painkillers and plenty of cold drinks, ice cream and jelly can help to soothe a sore throat





Now repeat after me,
"I shall never doubt Adrian in future. I will not dismiss Adrian's words w/o giving it a 2nd thought."

When it all falls apart..

Hmm... just a random thought that popped into my head. This is how distracted i get when I study last minute.

Anw, it's really nice when people start giving you their regards and wishes right?
"All the Best"
"Good Luck!"
"Best of Luck"
"God Bless"
It's encouraging to know that there are people who care, & hope that you are happy. Anyway, most people do.

I mean I don't live my life hoping every second that someday some particular person is gonna trip and fall flat on his face. Not even if I dislike him/her.

However, after awhile, I can get rather de-sensitised to all these well wishes. Somehow, I'll just end up thinking that everything is really gonna be alright.

Somewhere in my head, I know there's a possibility it wouldn't be. Everything's possible in life. What happens then?

I guess that's all I'm really concerned with. Not just whether people actually hope I'll be ok, but also the assurance that when everything falls apart, someone will be there.

Like for exams, what's the worse thing that can happen? I'll just fail, like the countless times I've failed before. I'll just feel like a loser for a few days.

It isn't the failure that kills but the sense of loneliness & isolation that comes with it.

I know I may sound weird, but I just prefer to comfort people that way. I wanna be there when things are bad, coz I know how weak and vulnerable one would feel.

If ever you're frustrated, stressed, or worried, I'll say this to you,
"All the best, but if things go wrong, pls lemme know? I won't judge, or nag, I'll just sit in 1 corner & listen."
and maybe crack a few lame jokes, hehe.

Stolen Pizza!

Something that stands out amidst the big Casino debate. haha, funny man.

Can you believe this news was report on CNA(channel news asia)
hahaha! ==>Big News<==

excerpt:
A pizza delivery man lost a Hawaiian pan pizza to an apparently hungry thief on Thursday evening.
The hot pouch is worth $120 and the pizza $25


Idea sia! haha, we could actually try it out in Perth?? Lets all start tailing Broadway & Dominoes Pizza delivery vehicles.
I'm sure I can find a delicious BBQ Chicken, or Aussie Bob. Yumyum. haha

Sure hope Pizza Hut has some kinda insurance for that, haha, otherwise the poor delivery boy's pocket is gonna kena.

Choc Croissants!

I only realised that I haven't had a bite of chocolate croissants in ages. I didnt have during the summer. Thats a longlong time.

But there's no escaping from Adrian's mouth. HAHAHA, devoured 3 croissants last night! Given that there was only 4 on the table, I feel that it's quite an achievement.

This is a picture of a very happy boy gobbling up his croissant~ It's the best one I could find online.

yumyum

So satisfying! & please don't say I didnt share that divine happiness, no1 believed me when I said "Hey, it tastes fantastic! But then again, I'm just biased to chocolate croissants"

Lalala. However, Joey was lucky enough to grad the last 1, coz I was too paiseh to take anymore la. Luckily Joey didnt see me staring at that last piece, otherwise sure kena from him, hahahaha.

Thanks~~~

The week before was rather eventful, but I enjoyed coz I managed to actually spend some quality time with my mom.

Haven't really been out wif her for a long time. I'm not just talking about going out for meals or accompanying her somewhere, but actually spend time with her doing something together.

Ok, so it is just shopping to some of you, perhaps no big deal. However, I haven't been shopping with Mommy for a long time. Being the only child & having a father who's busy at work, I always had to tag along with Mom when she goes shopping.

As I grew older, shopping gradually became an activity w/o Mommy. Guess some of us are just like that huh? As I think back, I'm actually very thankful & grateful for that Thursday spent with her.

I did not feel obligated to accompany her, & was enjoying most of the time spent w/o worries. And having her pay for my stuff, that's such a RARE thing!

Not that I've been financially independant since young, but it's never been a direct form of gift. Been taking hand outs from my parents till my army days, but Having her actually paying for my shopping, haha, feel like a little boy la~~

Does seem interesting though, that I've only managed to spend quality with my mom here in Perth. Time to reflect on what I've been doing b4...
