i'm rotting at home. sigh.
haha. it's like so queer. cos during the school year, all i wished for was for the holidays to arrive quickly. and now when i have this early hol(my mc), i just wish i could go back to school. ahah. people are just weird. but i kind of expected this to happen larh. even when i was talking to him last time and we were sort of wishing for the hols to hurry up and come, i already told him that during the hols we wouldn't really enjoy the hols as much as we thought we would during the school year. haha. people are such ironic creatures. never really satisfied with what they have. the grass is always greener on the other side, or so we think. is that really so? hmm.
your letter to me for my birthday was really sweet. bittersweet rather. with the bitter outweighing the sweet. as usual. and maybe i prefer it that way. my tastes have always been queer ever since i was a child, preferring bitterness to sweetness. even with durian, i had always preferred those with bitter undertones. which is probably why my birthday cake from my parents was mocha. 甜中带苦，苦中带甜. two distinct flavours mixing and blending together to form that rich, creamy aftertaste. i like that. you can't really tell where the sweetness ends and the bitterness starts. everything is just blended together. now that's what i call good cake. lol. swissbake really does have nice cakes. and their pies are a must-try. so lovely and cheesy. woolala.. and i love mixing mint choc ice cream with italian coffee ice cream. have you ever tried that? venezia's gelato is ideal for that mixture. light mint amidst dark coffee undertones with just the right crunch from the chocolate bits. it's good comfort food. haha.
now how did a letter start me on food? hmm.. i really am a pig. haha.
