Bogged Down...

At this moment, I shud be hving din with 2A'ers at Raffles Place b4 heading for chill out sesh n drinks...
Budden....I cudn't find my passport jus nw n an hr long search took place plus I've nt packed a single thing so in e end, spent e time tearing my rm inside out, upside down onli to discover tt I had tucked my precious document in a brown envelope n put it in e bottom drawer of my study table jus to ensure tt it's intact for e Korean trip...
I guess my memory's failing me...
So e strawberry margaritas will hv to take a raincheck....sheesh, I hope I can squeeze in a drinking session b4 I start work proper..
N Na's FINALLY back from Eastern Europe, welcomed back, ger!!!
Me, u, Soph n Jau can finally meet up but nw it'll hv to wait till I ged back..haha

Anyway, today I baked banana nut bread for brekkie...always wanted to bake bread since I'm a rotiger at heart, I can't do without my bread...n yeap, i've a fetish for bananas....so...tt's e batter with banana slices sprinkled with a dusting of cinnamon powder on top...Image hosted by Photobucket.com

The loaf will take 1 hr so din wanna waste e time n I vacummed n mopped e floor in e meantime...
By e time I finished with my domestic chores, I was left with 20 mins still..
So grabbed my jumprope, did 2,500....Ding!
The bread's ready!

My baby... n it's nt chaota, okie! It's a beautiful golden brown cuz of e cinammon powder on top..

Left it to cool on e table n went back to finish e remaining 500 of my jumprope regime...
Then hit e showers....n sliced the loaf into thick slices..

Tried it n it's nice!
Veri moist n yummy with lotsa thick chunky banana...the onli thing was tt i had overtoasted e walnuts b4hand thus e nuts tasted a bit chaota...
It was chockfull of the natural sweet goodness of banana..haha, cuz e recipe asked for 3 ripe bananas but I think I threw in abt 5 or 6 cuz tt bunch of bananas was veri ripe oredi but tt's a gd thing cuz the loaf turned out to be moist n rich..
Mum said my baking skills r improving by e day...*beams*, hee hee...
Next up will be a chocolate fudge cake! I've nvr baked an entire cake b4, e closest I've come to baking a cake were e individual baked cheesecakes I attempted in April..

Yeah, n I still hven't packed a single thing yet..
Thing is I dunno why but I'm not exactly lookin fwd to e trip...I jus feel bogged down in more ways than one...a feeling hard to put into words..
Perhaps, the change of scenery wud do me gd n definitely e change of temp...
The sweltering heat of June in Sgp is turning me way off....jus checked e temp over there...Daytime temp averages ard early 20s to 28 n nighttime ard 16 to early 20s...
N hee hee, Korea does excite me, I guess...nt cuz of Won Bin or e Winter Sonata guy....woots! But cuz of...the ger or rather woman of my dreams..
Presenting someone whom I personally feel to be e most beautiful woman in e world...plus she's our age too, imagine!!
She's heartbreakingly beautiful, e female lead in Summer Scent..Son Yejin...haha n I'm visiting Korea in summer...mebbi I'll chance into her..

Bye!
