phew..a relieve!

Im done with MAB test finally. Though i seriously doubt i'll pass, but it's good to be done with it. I had problems cramming for the test, as i was esaily distracted... by mini mooncakes, and freecell and god knows what. Basically, anything beats studying for MAB, even though i know that i should have started earlier.

Wanted to join the rest for after test celebration..but im kinda broke in a way, coz i gotta save money to get mommy's present. Besides, i was dead tired after the test. I fell into this deep deep sleep when i crashed the bed.

I'm clueless about what to get for dear old mommy. The stuff that i have in mind is either Freaking expensive, or nothing. Haha. Doesn't help that Dalena the sister is as broke as i am. We're on a tight budget....and i really mean tight. Sigh.. Life of a student... that's the poorest you can get.

Next online would be econs... i reckon that i start on econs soon, lest it turn out disastrous like MAB.
I was just reading through emails, and i realised that i haven't been checking mails for a long time. It's really bad, coz you're supposed to cultivate this habit of reading your emails daily, or more.... (esp when you start working in future) but com law and MAB test got the better of me i guess.

Im actually thinking of taking part in the christmas card design competition.. After all, the prize is $1000, and it sounds really fun and interesting.

Triumph competition seems to be coming up fine... and i really do hope that we'll triumph in the competition. Haha, pardon the punt with words..brain's sort of going lame recently.

I went shopping for mooncakes with mommy after waking up in the evening. We walked through the entire Taka square, and she made me try what seem like the hundredth mooncake, and they all taste the same, or similar. It's only the packaging that entices me.. i personally preferred the Bakerzin collection especially the sweet potato flavor. It's got this creamy taste to it, doesn't quite feel like you're eating a mooncake, and it's pretty!.

In terms of flavor, and packing, i like Bakerzin, like i mentioned earlier...
followed by this rooster one that may phua endorsed for. It's this huge cookie jar in the shape of a rooster...but i didnt try their product. It's cute!

I had to walk through the entire exhibit 3 -4 times... there's 4 seasons' durian mooncakes, big china mooncakes which was supposed to be good.... haagen daz ice cream ones...etc..
Can't quite remember the rest, but East ocean's mooncake tasted pretty good..coz it wasn't too sweet..though packaging was horrible. Erm the mom bought the ugliest of the lot. (meaning east ocean) Coz she said what matters is the taste.. not how it looks. Boo!

Over the weekend, i consumed nearly a dozen of mini mooncakes made by beanie's mom.
They aren't too sweet, and she's rather generous with the yolks. (slurp slurp) Since i was rather tied up with com law and MAB test..eating seem like the best way to make myself feel better.
In case you go tsk tsk about the chrolestrol level with the yolks... this auntie at the mooncake place told me that yolks are good for the memory! Whopppee! but..somehow.. i guess im i've got some yolk defiency going on..coz my memory's horrible! Next in line would be to polish off the tiramisu mooncakes, compliments from beanie's mommy...then would be mommy's.
Im such a glutton huh?

The start of student week is approaching.. looking forward to it, it's gonna be lots of fun! (i hope so) Whee!
