Let's Go

At this precise moment, I've submitted three of my research papers - all completed in five days with two features for work, an interview and a side writing job slotted in between. This week was slightly comparable to my final exams during the election period in May where I only had the night before to study. Anyways that's all in the past and I can breathe a sigh of relief and watch some DVDs tonight!

So here's a really small update of what I've been up to the past week.

Bogged down with assignments but happy to be spending more time with Roxy. Here she's accompanying me by my side while I typed away.




Quick lunch.
H&M knit top; Topshop denim; Vincci heels; Charles & Keith bag




Sorted my submission for the Malaysian Press Institute award. Fingers crossed!


Went to Istana Besar for an interview session for Johor Sultan's upcoming birthday.

Work starts tomorrow and I'm kinda happy about that lol. Beats sitting at home bent on my laptop for assignments any day!

BTW, those on Dayre, do add me for more updates throughout the day. Follow me on dayre.me/uttercookieness for more nonsensical and mundane updates of my day! Go download the app for iPhone/Android now! Don't miss out wtf.

Due Dates

And so, it begins again. 3 papers due next Friday, 2 feature stories to complete for work in between and some miscellaneous writing jobs outside work and school will have all my time this week.

See you in a week, world!

The 3 C's

Began the year trying to get a head-start on my New Year resolutions: To spend more time baking. I have been wanting to do so for the longest time but I spent a lot of last year sorting my life out. I remember I used to bake a lot during my school days mainly to show off to my friends wtf.  Anyways, this time I chose the easiest recipe to bake: Chocolate chip cookies. This is because I can't seem to find good chocolate chip cookies in JB and the one and only Famous Amos branch at the airport recently closed down (maybe I was their only customer WTF). That made it harder to get my hands on delicious cookies.

I guess I mainly enjoyed the process of visiting the supermarket by myself to shop for the ingredients as well as the process of measuring stuff. I feel grown-up doing so haha..

I underestimated the first batch and dropped too big a dollop of batter onto the tray. They came out huge but they were the best ones of the whole batch.

Baking is not without hiccups. I over-timed this and forgot about them while watching TV wtf

Voila!

I brought a jar of the cookies to work and they received rave reviews LOL maybe not rave, but everyone liked them. My boss even asked where I'm selling them WTF thanks?

More baking to come soon! :D
