As I woke up from my sweetest dream
A simple dream of you and me
You teasing me, as it always has been
And me laughing at your silly grin
I woke up to an empty room
My heart cringed as I scanned once through
I perched to check if there was still food
To my dismay, all was gone too soon
Disappointed I was I laid back down
Wondering why you missed the drill
To kiss me, say you love me before you left
Were you in a rush, or did you forget?
Suddenly I heard a cough
I sat back up and looked through the door
There was light, there was sound!
My dearest fiance was still around!
I snuggled back with a smile
Anticipating the sweetest lull
And there he came, gentle as he is
"I love you" he said and sealed it with a kiss
Every line in this poem really happened. Crafted this poem in my mind when I was jogging this morning. The words just flow into my brain just like that. That's what love do to you :p
Took this picture at our impromptu supper picnic at East Coast Park.
Sat on the beach, listened to the waves, talked and shared- simple pleasures in life.
May we always be each other's best listener and companion :)

It has been a long while since I wrote in this. Many things have changed, and I choose to think that I have grown up quite a bit.
Before I decided to continue blogging (and continue blogging on this page), I read through some of my posts from the archives. Laughed hard at my "cool" singlish, cringed a little at the downs, but all in all, I saw how God's blessings were being showered upon me at every single stage of my life-even when I felt He was far at that particular point of my life. Grateful for all the people He placed in the different phases of my life, thankful for the friends that are still around now.
So yes, I am going to continue blogging here. After all, the memories and emotions archived were as real as they could get then, and I feel I should not negate them.
Life has been wonderful.
I am engaged now to J. Learning to be a good and supportive wife.
I've been working in Parkway for 2.5 years now. This is my first full time job since graduation, and I have learned so much from here.
I am starting my Masters of Science in Communications Management this year.
My circle of friends has probably shrunk, as in, I don't meet many of them anymore. But there's still those few firm friends that have always been there.
I am doing ballet again-with Grace (*SURPRISE)
And many many more blessings that I am accumulating everyday (:
So I shall try to keep this blog alive, so that 10 years later, when I decide to rummage through my archives again, I will be able to laugh at my silly-ness from today, and thank God yet again, for being so personally involved in my life.
Today, my blog post will be about the soya bean cakes that I made! So J's helper made homemade Soyamilk, and I thought, what could I do with the remains of the beans- which I have learned they're called Okara. And this was what I did with them- Soya Cakes with Chocolate Filling (inspired by Mr Bean).
Recipe (6cakes):
6 Tbsp of Okara
6 Tbsp of Flour ( I used All Purpose Flour but I would think it'll be better with cake flour)
2 Tbsp Sugar
5 Tbsp Milk
1/2 Tbsp of Olive Oil
6 Cubes of 70% dark chocolates
Method:
1. Pre heat oven (180 degreeC)
2. Mix everything together except the chocolates.
3. Fill half the muffin tin with mixture.
4. Place one cube of chocolate in.
5. Cover the chocolate with more mixture.
6. Bake for 15-20mins (180degC)
