MELON PAN IS BACK!!~ I have a sudden craving for melon pan... soo here's a recipe i found online~~ i wanna bake that!!! ok.. finish my exams first.. sigh!


1. Pan2. Topping

- 1 packet dry yeast
- 1/4 c. water
- 1/4 tsp. sugar

***

- 1 + 3/4 c. flour
- 1/2 Tbs. salt
- 1 Tbs. + 1 tsp. + 1/4 tsp. sugar ^^
- 3 Tbs. butter
- 7/8 c. water

- 1 + 1/4 c. flour
- 1 pinch baking powder
- 2/3 c. butter
- 10 Tbs. sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 a lemon peel
- a little bit of melon essence*

* use pineapple extract if you can't find it
Part I:
1. Heat water to 100-110 F and add yeast and sugar. Let stand for around ten minutes.
2. Combine remaining bread ingredients in a bowl and add yeast. You'll probably have to add some more flour.
3. After you've added enough flour so that it isn't terribly sticky kneed it for 10-20 min. on a floured surface. Add more flour as needed.
4. Lightly grease the bowl and place the dough back in it, turning it over once to moisten the top. Cover and let stand in a warm place for 2 hours. Dough should at least double in bulk.
5. Punch dough and kneed lightly for 10 min. Pinch off walnut sized pieces and shape them into balls. Place on a cookie sheet and let rise in a warm place for 15 min.

Part II:
6. Mix all the ingredients for the cookie topping together. Sometimes it helps later on if you melt the butter.
7. Coat the bread rolls (which should be puffy now) with the cookie topping. If you've melted the butter it'll be a little easier...I usually just wash my hands really well and use them.
8. If you wish, sprinkle the top with sugar.
9. Bake at 350-375 F for 12-15 min., or until edges are slightly brown.
10. If you want them to have that mushy, just bought in Japan taste cover them individually with plastic wrap right after you take them out of the oven.

At last! einstein can stop bothering me!! This einstein module has ended quite nicely with an amusing test today with macnuggets in one of the options.. I think this might be the best gem I had taken.. I have to admit its quite interesting to learn abt general relativity, special relativity, stars, quantum mechanics, particle physics..  however sometimes i get so confused that i dunno wat i'm reading.. haha.. but i am definitely looking forward to the operation of LHC~~

Before einstein's test, i had a long chat with yanteng.. arh.. i understand u a little bit more today le, bf!! haha.. anyways.. sometimes i also dunno if i'm right or wrong to think this way.. i am kinda envious when i see that some of ppl ard me can have so strong faith.. they have a purpose in their life and they are strong with their stand. how abt me? I do not have a stand. or rather my stand is not to have a stand. I have no purpose in life.. my life seems meaningless.. getting a degree, finding a job in the future.. that's all.. issit bec my way of thinking is wrong? i do not know.. Actually, i'm quite surprised how much i have changed in the last 6 or 7 years of my life.. i vaguely rmbed i was an idealist back then..also, my beliefs changed alot.. but then again, wat's so surprising.. nthg is constant anyways.. sometimes, its just so complicated.. i think i can't comprehend all these with my bimbotic mind.. i can easily brush these thoughts away and choose not to think abt it. After all, there are enough things to keep me busy alr.. and my life isn't totally meaningless anyway.. its up to myself to decide whether my life is or is not meaningful. i can rmb incidents in my life that made me treasure and cherish family and friendship alot.. i still do.. these will be things in life that keep me going=D 

not sure if i'm making sense up there.. guess my command of language is still as poor as ever.. haa..

Ar~ Wanted to blog long time ago but was always distracted by msn.

Emerge 2008 was a success!! Initially, my dar dar yipei had asked d'hoppers to choreo and dance for some of the items. we ended up rejecting her bec we thot cactus will be near Emerge and we might not be able to cope with it. But it turns out that cactus is in may and Emerge is in March.. Haha.. but by then they've gotten 3 dancers from M'sia to help them choreo and dance le. They still needed dancers so some dhoppers, namely me, felicia, huiwen, shiwen and huangbin, went to help out!! I really had a fun time dancing with all of them.. I'm so glad that I was somehow involved in the end.. coz i realli wanted to dance for dar dar's event=D but during the actual event, i was quite horrified that both shiyao and ethan are right in front of me when i was dancing.. like realli right infront.. say half a metre away? make me so self conscious~~ but after a while i forgot abt them le.. hahaha~~~

Here are some pics!!


What's happening up there!!! haa.. thanks for coming~ my bie coursemates~



Thanks for the flowers~~ felt like a long time since we meet up le.. i love u all!!


Oh my dar dar~~ haha.. congrats!!~ Emerge 2008 was a great success=D



Now let me introduce the 3 dancers who taught us the dance...
Oops~ Not the best way to intro them!! with this photo of them faking drunk~~ erifin on the left, elvin middle and xiaobao right.

You guys rox!~ xiaobao likes to act cute, erifin likes to point his middle finger and elvin likes to touch the torn pattern on erifin's jeans-_- Xiaobao and erifin likes to perform magic tricks which we enjoyed alot!! coz we always fooled by them.. while elvin likes to say 魔术骗人的 in his funny but cute accent.


Here's Felicia, me and huiwen posing with our dance partners for bai gei ni!~


Ain't we hot?? okies.. i bhb.. but i love them lots and i love this pic..


Dancers grp photo!! some miscommunication. some act cool, some act cute~~


wanted to snap a picture of elvin sleeping on the train. but he woke up in the middle~~ notice my fingers attempting to pose a victory sign despite my holding my wallet.. my inherent bimbo nature to act cute =D

Many many other pics, shall not upload everything!! thanks ginnie, shiyao and huiwen for sending me the photos. and the others i kope from ah pek and felicia fb and friendster.. heee..

Looking forward to the next event~~ CACTUS!!
