Sleeping beauty

I've finally met a real-life sleeping beauty. Needs a few kisses, after an interval of time in between, to finally wake up. Sometimes need hugs too. Makes bunny noises :P

SBB and blanket

How can anyone (apart from Ban) suspect SBB to be an evil bunny? Especially if he's under such cute blanket.

Force of g

My weight has gone down below my normal weight. Since weight = mass x g and I've not decreased my intake of food, g must have gone down! Alert the press! Gather all scientists! :P PS: Haven't been blogging much because I'm in Australia with Ban until May 3 :)

Chocolate sponge bread

Image
It's yummy! Those who love chocolate sponge cake should give this a try. It seems to give a little more fuller filling, likely because it's in bread form. I bought it from The Baker's Cottage at One Utama. Original price was RM3.20 but was on promotional price of RM2.60. The ingredient of the bread is as follows: High protein wheat flour Butter Margarine (butter and margarine???) Sugar Eggs UHT Milk Cocoa powder Chocolate emulsifier (or so I guess - the actual term in Malay language is "Coklat emulko") Salt Raising flour Yeast Not exactly healthy food...hehe...but it's delicious!

Money

Money isn't everything but it sure helps in a lot of things. - Not sure whether anyone said this before. If not, I'm claiming it :)

I've watched the tv series a couple years ago and I like it so much that I've been hunting for its genuine DVDs in Singapore and Malaysia. I've finally found it at Animetech at Centrepoint, Bandar Utama. However, my joy was short-lived: there was problem playing it if chapter was selected (rather than "Play All"). It was the same for all 3 DVDs. What I was afraid most was that this problem was laptop specific i.e. it may be playing perfectly well on a DVD player. Fortunately, it was the same problem when tested using the shop's DVD player. Since they did not have another copy, they offered to try to get another one from another branch or to order a new one. Should that new copy also have the same problem, then I would be fully refunded. About 8 days later, I obtained its replacement and so far, it's working well :)

Update on hand

Following from my post here , I rested my hand for about 5 days where I only spent at most an hour on the computer. I've also diligently did some exercise that supposed to help my hand gets well. The spots of pain all almost gone. Question now is how do I go from here? Abstaining from computer is definitely not viable. How should I hold me mouse? How do I face the screen? Etc, etc.
