21+1

Hello! It sure takes a lot of 'bored moments' to get me to blog nowadays. I mean, why bother blogging when you can twitter? It's more straightforward yet everyone can almost get the whole picture. By the way, I do not have a twitter account and I don't intend to have one =D
Anyway, while things get postponed, and I have free time now, let's not postpone another post.
Actually, I don't feel like telling a whole fairytale story right now because life sure isn't a fairytale. However, I DO want to share pictures of my 22nd birthday because it was one of those pleasant moments in life kind of thing...so, enjoy! =P

Colour-BLAST Unbirthday!

Hello! This is an overdue post but...I'll usually update when the mood kicks in. So, this year, for my sister's "Unbirthday"...*sings to the Madhatter's Happy Unbirthday song!*

"A very happy unbirthday to you!
Who me?
Yes you!"

Hehe! Well well...a Happy Unbirthday indeed! Since the 29th of February is non-existant this year. But for fun's sake..we celebrated on the 28th and I made a fun-CoLouR-BLAST chocolate cake! The cake's awesomely chewy! I used a special cocoa purchased from the Hershey's shop at Resorts World Sentosa! That's why the cake's so dark. By the way, you've GOT to check out Universal Studios Singapore! I went for the preview twice and I'm going again on the 23rd to check out the rides! Whooshes! If I am to compare USS Singapore to the major themeparks in L.A. (Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knotts Berry Farm) and Tokyo (Disneyland, Disneysea)...since I've only been to those..USS Singapore is not better nor worse...but definitely on par! Let's just say, it'll give you a whole new experience with the tropical weather and all. Plus...now you tell me, which other Universal Studios sells sunblock lotion in their pushcarts?? Haha! Only here in Singapore! Alright enough with the diversion, back to the cake. Since the credits for this cake goes to Hersheys...I'm going to be a tad generous...so here's the recipe!
