Recently had the opportunity to catch up with people and watched movies. Somehow all 3 times. i ended up watching romantic comedies. haha. Dunno why. haha
1. Definitely, Maybe
2.What happens in Vegas
3.Made of Honour

I realized all of them revolves around a somewhat similar theme.

You never know how much people around you means to you until you start losing them...



Lying on my bed thinking.

Creme brulee

By Jon Ang
Crème brûlée (French for "burnt cream"; pronounced /ˌkrɛm bruːˈleɪ/ in English, IPA: [kʁɛm bʁyˈle] in French) is a dessert consisting of a rich custard base topped with a layer of hard caramel, created by burning sugar under a grill, or with a blowtorch or other intense heat source. It is usually served cold in individual ramekins.

The first time i did creme brulee, was about 1 month backi failed. Yunli came over to see and it failed and it turned lumpy.
The second try(last tuesday) i tried. With tips from freda, i manage to get it out but i didn't know the temperature and timing combination for my oven. So i did an experiment. i put 4 cups of it in the oven, 40mins, 45mins, 50mins and 55mins respectively. Picture below!
The third try(today) i did it again and yea. it came out nice, creamy and yummy
The time experiment.
The third try! yea! nice!
Half eaten.... Yummy!

By Jon Ang
Theres more to life!:)
Human will fail you, But God will never!
I am glad i wasted a year.
Thank God, i found it back.
You speak through various ways.

Gone, like Frank Sinatra, like Elvis and his mob,

Like Al Pacino's cash, nothing lasts in this life.
My High School dreams are gone,
my childhood streets are gone
Life is a day that doesn't last for long.

Life is more than money, time was never money.
Time was never cash, life is still more than girls.
Life is more than hundred dollar bills and roto-tom fills.
Life is more than fame and rock and roll and thrills,
All the riches of the kings end up in wills
We've got information in the information age
but do we know what life is outside of our convenient Lexus cages?

She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every moment that we borrow brings us closer
to the God who's not short of cash
Hey Bono, I'm glad you asked.
Life is still worth living, Life is still worth living.
Life is more that you are.
