Before I die or become too old to bake, I will, WILL, WILL bake a Matcha, Lemon and Chocolate Opera cake.
Consisting of 5 parts, taking about a whole day to make and absolute hell for me. ='(
But mark my words, I will make you one day.
Recipe and photos from here. (Click it please. The baker is awesome. She could make your tummy grumble in 5 seconds.)

Screw my vegan diet. Nothing gets in between my baking and me.
... Okay maybe not exactly screw it but I'll give myself 1 day of non-vegan-ness.
I used only 1 egg and 80grams of butter! Considerably less than most recipes!
Cakes require more animal killing and this is why I choose bread instead of cakes.
I made wholemeal banana, raisin and honey cinnamon rolls! And the best part was when I could see the honey dripping out of the rolls. *drools*
It took me an hour to knead the dough though cause it's my official first time baking bread without much help at all. (And instructions shouted at me by my mom is not counted. -_- )
Sad part is that after all the work I only made.... 12 rolls. And they turn stale within a day. Now that is sad.
Hope they turn out well though. They're still getting baked and rising beautifully in the oven. 8D
*And after they got out of the oven...*
They're so awesome that I don't mind that I wasted 3 hours on them! <3
Since they're fresh so they're crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It isn't too sweet with means it's kinda healthy, and the banana and raisins make them sweet naturally.
Cakes can eat my shit (for now), I found a new love in bread.

Viva la Vegan?
It's been about 2 weeks since I've declared war on meat. And all I've gotta say is...
wtf don't I live in bloody america?!
They have vegan ice cream!
They have vegan butter/peanut butter/cream cheese/whatever-you-put-on-your-bread! (And bloody hell they even have almond butter)
='(
Sorry for the useless rant. It's just that I haven't tasted chicken since forever so that kinda does weird things to your brain...
But I guess I'm doing well. Whenever I'm hungry I find fruits instead of cookies.
One impossible task though... How do I bake?

After all this time, Severus?
Likk tis' is.. *sniff sniff* ... so saaadd... *blows snot into tissue* ='(

Snape: Always.

Ok I wasn't really crying... I don't cry much since the organ my blood flows to isn't a heart, it's a black coffin of ash and dust. But this black coffin feels sad sometimes and I think it totally died when I read that quote thing.
I was bored so I was checking out GSC and then checked out Snape's wiki page and and... ='( So saddening. Snape was like the best character out of the whole story. The dude died for nothing.
Oh god I'm such a big fat pussy. ='(

To-do
I haven't made a to-do list in ages. About time I get off my ass and do one.
1. Buy Fuze diet white tea with pomegranate.
I love tea. I love pomegranate. I love 0 calorie stuff.
So I absolutely, totally love you, Fuze.
2. Avoid meat at all cost for 30 days.
I don't really like PETA, but I think I should take the pledge and explore vegetarianism.
3. Find and buy green tea chewing gum.
Where the heck do they sell this stuff?! I can't find!

Going... green?
Call me insane but maybe, maybe, maybe.... I wanna be a vegetarian.
(I don't agree with all of the reasons, but I do agree with most.)
And if you're pro-non-vegan then I suggest don't read this. I don't wanna unintentionally piss people off.
I can easily give up fried chicken.
I don't really like pork.
I hate most seafoods.
I'm not picky when it comes to veggies. (Bitter gourds and brinjals could go die though.)
The problems I will have to go through though if I wanna be vegetarian are:
1. Not enough nutrition.
Even if I drink a gallon of soya milk a day I will still lack in Protein.
Only way to get Iron is to eat foods that make you fart a lot (beans).
Only way to get vitamin B12 in enough amounts is by cheating vegetarianism eating supplements.
2. Eating out will be as hard as finding Michael Jackson alive.
How many restaurants actually bother putting out a vegetarian section?
And McDonald's doesn't have vege-burgers no more. Well at least in Penang.
3. Have to give up current foods that I like.
My salmon. My milkshakes. My muffins. D=
So a good solution will be...
being a lacto-ovo-vegetarian.
Yes to drinking milk and eating eggs. Definite no-no to eating salmon though. (... but salmon's expensive anyways so better don't eat?)
Okay this requires some thinking...

Adam Lambert rant
Kris Allen go away. I don't like you. Stop invading the local radios.
I WANT ADAM. ='(
I am absolutely SICK of hitz.fm just playing Kris Allen's version of No Boundaries. Sure Kris is an awesome singer, good looking, etc etc blah blah but I still prefer Adam's version of No Boundaries.
Adam = awesome falsetto.
His voice is the kinda voice you recognize after just hearing it for a second. That distinctive falsetto is totally unbeatable.
So screw you, hitz.
