Sometimes i feel sian as travelling for cakes is my hobby but the interest seemed to fade away. I start to wonder the amt of $ spent, the effort spent on travelling and most importantly the weight issue of mine. I have been trying very hard to maintain my weight.
Desserts/cakes is thought to be guilty and satisfy ur sweet tooth. You wont full full when u eat cakes. Besides that, it's expensive. However, more and more dessert places have sprung up. I want to give up this hobby of mine as i feel that it's time for me to return to reality. I can save money for my china trip and lose weight at the same time. I have put on more than 10 kg of weight(fats) when i start on my cake hunt. It hurts me when i see the scale number increasing. However, ppl have commented i look better & healthier. I wish to be slimmer, yet healthy. Im in a dilemma, whether or not to give up. Can somebody give me some advice???
Strawberry mousse frm galicier, blackforest frm cova- My target.

Freaking tired after my 2.5 hrs of treatment.
Sweat alot @ at least got some results.
I wonder if i were to sign up for the package.
But it's really expensive!
The mr hero frm 4 leaves is really yummy. The chocolate mousse is sweet and has bits of choc chips in it. I really like it.
Anyway, i bought a kiwi mousse frm Moon river cakeshop @ yew tee
It looks quite ok to me... many flavours available as well.
After the treatment, it's still quite early so i decided to go orchard.
Had some grilled salmon belly @ shodoku jap(heeren).
They have more varities of desserts compared to raffles city.
However, the food is pathetic!
I bought the chocolate mousse( $1.90) and a lemon chiffon frm cova.

I wanted to attend the Asian fd festival.
I made a huge mistake! I thought the event is held @ suntec city but when i reached there, there wasnt a single soul. After enquiring, i realised it was held @ expo instead of suntec. I have made a wasted trip!
I went to senses patisserie to check whether they have any new cakes. Well, there were only 3 new addition- the orange bavarios, chocoalate tart and the coffee mousse. I had the coffee mousse to go.
4 leaves has launched 2 new cakes to celebrate teacher's day- Miss sunshine & mr hero. Miss sunshine is a mango-mousse cake in a shape of a heart while mr hero is a chocolate mousse cake in a shape of a diamond. I have mr hero and perhaps try miss sunshine tmr.
Went to shoduku jap for lunch, order the hamachi head. It cost only $6.80++. I always get this frm meidi-ya or kuriya fish market. It cost ard $15. I think it's becos the ''kama'' is not included. I also have the grilled unagi with cheese and bacon with quail egg.My fav salmon belly is there as well but i shall reserve that for tmr as sushi king is much cheaper!

Went for interview jus nw.
The interview lasted only like 15 mins.
I still have to wait for them to call.
I jus have to pray hard that i will get that hotel.
Lunched at Nabantei.
Their specialities are the yakitori so i had the chx meatballs & grilled unagi.
I wanted the grilled salmon belly but was not available. Too bad!!!
After that i went to Isetan for jap fair. Everything seemed so delicious.
I regretted not getting the sorbet and the sesame ice-cream as im afraid that it will melt when i bring back home.
I bought jap fishcake and sweet potato with yolk.
Mooncake festival is coming so alot of hotels are promoting moon-cakes.
Mooncakes are not my type of food!
Bused to GWC na they are under renovation. I bought hirame fillet from kuriya fish market.
I crave blackforest so i headed to dr-cafe but there wasnt any blackforest so i had the chocolate layer cake. I saw a phamplet on tea loft selling some tea-cakes so i got 3 types- chocolate berries, s/berry and vanilla. Of course the ones frm Le cafe would be a bigger size and taste wise, it's of course better.
Collected frm laptop frm sony. Luckily everything is fine, nth is missing. IF NOT, I WOULD HAVE TO REINSTALL alot of programmmes again. I would bring down another laptop for servicing soon.

sTRAwberries @ carrefour is on sale.
I got 2 pkts and gave 1 to hanthi.
I hope she will like it.
I plan to make some s/berry smoothies/ milkshake with these.
Had a strawberry chocolate cake rocky master
and a blackforest frm 1 caramel.
I jus watch a video on 1 caramel this morning and these desserts are so pretty!!!
I was undecisive of what to get frm there as choices were so many.
Since blackforest is not always available there, i decided to get that to try.
I think i'll flunk my opera test.
I have been struggling with the questions and how to operate the whole system.
Every components seemed so strange to me.
After doing the thing for almost 1 hr, i realised that the guest has not been checked in. I fiddle and jus click on every icons i can find to try. Finally the last 1/2 hr, i manage to complete at least 1/4 of the paper. However, i doubt i'll pass.

Been feeling restless these few days.
No mood to do anything and my tongue feels dry al the time.
I was supposed to go for an interview today but i have no mood thus i jus went to sch. I didnt do anything much.., project discussions and slack ard. I will refix another appointment for my interview.
Went to Gloria jeans to get the tuxedo chocolate. Their chocolate cakes are huge in size and quite yummy actually. The prices are on the higher side compared to Coffeebean. However, i feel that Spinelli's cakes are better and tastier. OMG! The tuxedo choc is really disappointing. The ultra dry chocolate sponge contributes to the failure of this cake. The chocolate fudge frosting is thick and rich but the ultra dry choc sponge puts me off.
Opera test is postponed. That's a pc of bad news. I hope to get over with it. Now, i still have to go to sch on thur to take the test. Haiz... im going to rest nw.
