I baked Muffins. Chocolate chip muffin, double chocolate muffin and dark chocolate muffin. I used the same chocolate throughout though, so its actually just chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate! :)

Still have frostings to experiment with, but I got to wait for my parents to get me a whisking machine.

Anyway, I was just thinking, when will girls/women ever just be satisfied with their weight/figure. My dad was just exclaiming to me how skinny I was, and I was totally shocked. Me skinny? You must be kidding. But of course, his comment made me happy for a little while. HAHA

I'm sure in every girl's life there's a secret subconscious pursuit to achieve that perfect figure, that perfect size, which constantly diminishes with every victory (read: yay 45kg, next goal: 40!). It is very sad, because there's no space for indulging in comfort food without feeling absolutely guilty. Some even go to the extent of the discomfort of sticking things down their throat to puke everything out. But is there really a need to? Obviously not!

I guess its just what watching TV (esp MTV) and movies would tell you. Pretty girls are skinny; pretty girl have flawless skin with beautiful smiles and loads of pretty clothes and shoes. And sometimes we just get sucked into this superficial ideology without knowing and start desiring things that we never did desire before (i.e. branded clothes, big sweet 16 parties, big houses even the perfect boy). I know I was when I was watching the reality show Laguna Beach. Just look at their houses. They have pools and jacuzzis in their backyard for goodness sakes! Its insane really.

Thank God I've stopped watching it. The drive to search Tudou.com for the episodes just disappeared like that, and I know why! I've been immersed in God's presence. These trivial things don't matter anymore.

When you've got the real McCoy, other things become immaterial. YAY!

Postscript: Andrewwwww gogogo! Do your best and let God do the rest. :)
