Resist the fear of failure. Yes, you will make mistakes. But they will be your mistakes, not someone else's. And you will survive them, and you will know yourself better for having made them, and you will be a fuller and a stronger person.
It's about inventing your own life. Not following a path, but making your own path.
Malacca Trip with the baby sis (21-22may2011)
Day 1 (21 May 2011)
Jie woke up early and treated us to Mac's breakfast at Raffles City and walked us to Hotel Grand Central where we waited for our coach (: we were all sleepy max!
reached Makohta Melaka at 2pm after a long 5 hours bus ride -.-
checked in immediately and got ready to explore the city
First stop: Dataran Palawan Mega Mall (英雄广场）just a walk away from our hotel. The waffles was awesome! We went back for a second one but that one killed us. Mad full after that.
Fruit juice (:

Stopped by Starbucks to get a cup of Camomile to aid digestion. Baby sis imitating the Starbucks logo -.-
Took a taxi to our dinner place for naan and tandoori chicken
tandoori chicken was good...but the cheese naan was mehhhhh
We took a slow walk to Jonker Street after dinner for some night market sightings
The famous Master Ho of Malacca who holds the Guinness World Record for the shortest time taken to jab his finger into a coconut.We left for Dataran Palawan again to catch our night movie, Pirates. Love the cinema for its plush seats and roomy leg space (: We actually wanted to sing k from 12am to 3am but were too tired for it.
We ended the night at Mac's for a choc ice cream cone before we crashed.
Baby sis's entry (below) for Bakerzin's FB Mother's Day Contest won us a Coeur Nor cake!!! The best entry out of 110 comments, so proud of the budding communication studies undergraduate (:
For all the years that have lived themselves out on her face, mother has never once splurged on food for herself. She counts the pennies and saves them up, only to shower them onto my sisters and I with unconditional extravagance.
If I told you that my mum has been willing to only bring sandwiches to work for 20 over years, will you be astonished? Call her penny-wise, pound-foolish if you may; but she is so undoubtedly my mother whom I hold so dearly to heart.
My greatest wish for this Mother’s Day is to personally present mum with vouchers to a gastronomical meal at Bakerzin so that she wouldn’t feel the pinch of dining out, together with a handwritten copy of this note.
I would also present her with a sweet Coeur Nor cake at the end of our family meal and say with all my love, “HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY MUM!”
