After 6 Days

My mind is quite blank today. I would like to write something interesting  but it seems that ideas got stuck somewhere inside there! I am quite exhausted after slogging for 6 days! It should be 5 but yesterday we had a meeting which ended at 12.30 p.m.  I am glad that it was over. I felt so stressful before the meeting as I had lots to present and unfortunately,  I faced some technical problems  to present using power point. I felt I failed to carry out my duty well yesterday.

Being so exhausted, this is how I looked  like last night.





This afternoon I baked a cake which has a unique name, Kek Sarang Lebah, literally translated " A Beehive Cake"! Well,  Malaysians in this state are very creative in giving all sorts of unique names to cakes and biscuits. The reason is, nature is always close to our hearts. Regarding the cake, I had another failure. It didn't turn out to be like a beehive cake but instead it looked like a chocolate cake! But it tasted good! After all, not a complete failure. I should have added honey in it because it is a beehive cake!


 May be you want to know how the cake looks like. I don't have the picture but let me explain, there are holes inside it. When it is sliced, we will see the "cells" which look more or less like in a beehive. Don't be scared to try it because there are no bees!



Although I failed in two things mentioned above, it isn't the end to it. It's a lesson to be learnt in order to perform better next time. Well, folks, that's all for now. Have a great week ahead!

Haiku - A Dream

















These eyes so heavy,
Soon, into dreamland I fall,
Where I meet my love.




Life is a dream,

Haiku - Thinking


I've been thinking hard,
To extract the utmost best,
But access denied.








A Monday thought,
