I’m So Sleepy

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on I’m So Sleepy

I feel so no mood, lazy, and exhausted today, don’t know why. After I came back from class, I felt so sleepy. It was only 5pm+ that time.

August is ending soon. Time really flies. Next Tuesday will be a public holiday, our National Day. Then, it will be Hari Raya Aidilfitri. If I have a semester break now or my bro does not have classes next week, I’ll be in Singapore now and will only come back on Wednesday. Too bad… I’m still stuck here.

I’m very random today. Think I better go to sleep early and go to church tomorrow, I skipped quite a lot of services lately because I didn’t want to wake up and slept very late the night before ;p

All right, that’s all for now.

To Laugh or to Cry?

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on To Laugh or to Cry?

Finally, the dreaded IELTS result is out! Went to take it just now.

See! Overall band 7.

Seeing the result, I really have no idea to laugh or to cry. I was disappointed with my listening test as I couldn’t hear the conversation clearly and almost threw the mark of one whole section away. I was thinking, if lucky, I might get a 7 else it will be 6.5. Who knows?!?! WOW! I almost got blown away with what I’m getting! 8.5, only 0.5 to the perfect 9, the highest band score! I never expect this result. I don’t understand how on earth it happened. I’m not going to complain of course, it’s so much better than what I had wished for. It had saved my ass too! If it’s not because of this, I won’t be getting an overall band of 7.

Reading, I was expecting a 7.5 or 7. I got 7. At least in the range of 7. Phew…

Writing, expected it but I was hoping to get a 7 as I read many band 7 essay samples, it’s not hard to achieve that. If I had the time to check my writing, then I think I’ll get a 7 for it but I didn’t have the time. Sigh…

Speaking, LOL… Expected to get lousy band but did not expect a 6, quite disappointing. Oh well… I really messed up. Instead of talking formally, I was yapping away like talking to my friends. Blek…

With such result, I’m not so sure whether they accept it or not as the offer letter mentioned that I must get band 7 for all components but the prospectus stated that an average 7 is enough. So… I’m not really sure.

Now, I’ll just have to wait to see whether they accept my score or not. If not, I have to resit! I don’t want!!! Sigh… Really don’t know to cry or laugh, worry or relieve. Cross my fingers, I don’t want to resit 🙁

Maryland Double Choc Chip Cookies

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Maryland Double Choc Chip Cookies

Tried Maryland Double Choc Chip Cookies and I didn’t really fancy it.

It looked delicious but taste wise I didn’t like it. I was expecting to get to taste very strong chocolate but I didn’t. Instead it tasted too bland and powdery. Didn’t even feel like it was double chocolate.

I guess it’s only the number of chocolate chips that doubled in the cookies but not the chocolate in the cookies.

Cut My Looooong Hair

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Cut My Looooong Hair

Finally shorten my hair ;p Not much, at least shorter than it used to be. The length was below my waistline but because of my natural curls it didn’t seem that long. Can’t stand it anymore, finally got time to cut it today. My last hair cut was more than 6 months ago.

Here you go… No more dyed end also, it’s now my original colour, virgin hair. It was blown dry, my curls will be back after the next wash. It won’t look this long after that 😉

Usually when I cut my hair, there will be some changes to it but nothing much this time ;p just shortened it, still very long right? My brother said it seemed not cut ;p hahaha… No bang too as I feel quite lazy to maintain one and decided to let it grow out.

Wonder should I get it coloured again? Hmmm… Means spend money again, I don’t think I’ll dye it any sooner, no money to spare. Just let it be.

Me, myself and I

Dinner @ Delizze

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Dinner @ Delizze

Went for dinner with my mom at Delizze the other night. I didn’t get the chance to try out the main course during the first visit, so there I was. I’ve been hearing many of my friends raving about their Chicken Gordon Bleu. Shouldn’t it be known as Chicken Cordon Bleu? Hahaha… I saw quite a number of place actually name it “Gordan” rather than “Cordon”.

Left: Soup of the day (RM5.50), potato and leek soup. The soup was very flavourful, I don’t really like leek but this made me forget about leek. A bit too salty for me. My mom ordered this as she had early dinner at home before we headed out.

Right: The Chicken Gordon Bleu (RM17.50), boneless whole chicken breast filled with cheese and chicken ham accompanied with gratin potatoes and cream sauce. I’ve never try any Chicken Cordon Bleu in my life, this is my first time, this wasn’t that bad for my taste palette but it’s quite filling for me, I had a bit of difficulty trying to finish the whole plate of food, lucky my mom helped a bit. If you hate cheese or creamy food or seriously on diet, this is not for you haha… For RM17.50 with such portion, not bad. The gratin potatoes was quite nice.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience for me, service was good also. Guess I’m lucky as I did hear some negative feedback of the place either about the food or service. No complain from me.
