So its a lonely new year's eve for me, too lazy to go anywhere. Had a nice dinner of abalone flavoured instant noodles with egg. What's the big deal with new year anyway, its happens every year..hahah..but yet everybody makes such a big fuss of it. I was at city hall earlier and the whole place was brimming people. I was quite happy to escape to the solitude(and quietness) of home. But the thing is I don't feel like doing anything, so I am just lazing around doing nothing hoping time passes faster.

I shall devote my time to baking. I baked macademia cranberry muffins and it turned out lovely, but still a tad to hard after it cooled down. The trick to soft muffin is not to overmix is, but I have yet to master that yet. The next thing I want to try out is biscotti. I have forgotten how much I used to love Olio Dome's biscotti which came in small bite size pieces, deceptively addictive. When mum brought back a tin of biscotti that some friend of her's had given her, half of it when into my stomach unknowingly. So yes, maybe I will try that out next.

After the donut factory fiasco, I seem to have developed cravings for donuts, especially krispy kreme ones. Check out their website. They have a mind-boggling variety. Oh my gosh, I want to try all of them, but I suspect I would be quite sick after that. But oh my, don't they just beckon out to be eaten, with all that lovely glaze and filling. Here I am talking about food again. Moving right along, its the new year again.

With a new year comes new things to conquer. Frankly, I am feeling somewhat jittery at the thought of this being my last semester. The fear of treading into the next phase of my journey, out into the working world, a whole new environment. Or even finding a job in the first place, all these doubts and fears niggling at me continuosly. It's too early to think of all that now, but hey, I haven't forgotten that every semester just flies past with a snap of the finger, too fast for me to catch my breath and marvel that I am still alive. Sheesh, I am getting stressed prematurely..sigh. off to do some mindless nothings before I sleep the new year away
