ZOMBIEZOMBIE

I feel worn out. Lots happened this morning, but I shan't go into detail.

1. Woke up around 6.30 feeling pretty terrible, got out of bed and realised I was having a weird (new) allergic reaction to something ==;
2. Went to doc asap before it could spread. He told me to be careful of what I eat and gave me a shot
3. Went home and got dressed asap
4. Schooled. Got there superlate for morning class. =_=;
5. Possibly the most unproductive pref meeting XD I can't believe it's almost over. Hope 3 on 3 bball goes well.
6. Cadets. Finally finished all the termination stuff (WOOHOO clean plate), new rolls, new sections, new platoons. I feel good. Only hindrance is the rolls of the recruits!! They were given to me just before dismissal parade so I didn't get a chance to do it today. (I think I just fell into a microsleep) MILOMILO (I know you read this) when you're done with the roll just hand it to Davo/Topher/Anyone who has nothing to do to courier it to me :D
7. Got home at the same time as dad. xD

OH OH. NEW FOUND landLOVE! Melted Colby cheese on english muffins.

easy peasy.

INGR.
COON's COLBY CHEESE (SLICED)
ENGLISH MUFFIN
MARGARINE or BUTTER

METHOD.
1. Preheat oven to 220 degrees C (fanforced oven) for about 2 minutes
2. While it's preheating, take the English Muffin and split it in half
3. Butter/margarine it.
4. Put the slice of cheese on top
5. Pop it in the oven and leave it there for just under 5 mins (I'd recommend you to camp infront of the oven and just watch because a. It's cold in winter and it's nice to be somewhere warm and b. you don't want the cheese to grow crusty.. So make sure it doesn't turn too brown)

Credits to the coon folk at the easter show (though the english muffin was MY idea :)

Quick n Easy.


Title of blog: zombiezombie. Explanation. Due to the lack of sleep I had and the extra stress and lethargy that came along with the incident this morning, I kept on crashing into things/not being able to walk in a straight line today. Maybe theres something wrong with my balancy fluid in my inner ear or something but it's pissing me off because I now have bruises around my shoulders, elbows and muscly arm area!

What I am looking forward to:
- 22 May: funfun in the city with friends followed by HAMLET
- 21 May: funfun info night methinks
- tomorrow: economics lesson. NEW TEACHER IS SUPERB. Now, even I know what's going on :P jk jk. Everything's just really well structured. There isn't really an awkward silence in class anymore because the teacher doesn't talk slowly. Oh I look forward to learning. :D


You know, I thought Alan's puns were bad however, today, I was watching my daily dose of news and it suddenly struck me, reporters USE SO MANY PUNS IN THEIR *mental blank* what are they called.. reports? story? Oh gosh. I want to go to bed. =_=

I was going through some photos I took in these past holidays and found quite a funny video.

No, it's not a video blog XD

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A WONDERFUL EASTER.

recipe + bio fun

KERBAM: I baked today.

this plate is like 2-3 times larger than my imaginary head (WHICH IS PRETTY BIG) and it's been piled high with cookies. I ate so many today.

*sigh* to get this lovely shot at the cookies, I had to take 5 pictures because I was aiming in the dark (mum's in tv room so i didnt want to let her know i was still awake). Righteo.


The recipe for this is currently in the kitchen, but I can remember it. :D

you will need:

• 150g softened butter
• 1/2 cup caster sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp of vanilla essence (VERY IMPORTANT)
• 1 large egg
• 1 & 3/4 cups plain flour
• 1/2 cup milk choc chip*
• 1/2 cup dark choc chip*

* These can be easily replaced with nuts/sultanas etc. I experimented. almonds and chocolate works so well. mm. sultanas too!

METHOD:

1. Cream the softened butter, meaning it goes a paler colour and is stiff-ish but not because it's cold but because it's been beaten.
2. Add in the caster sugar and brown sugar gradually while mixing.
3. Add the vanilla essence and keep beating
4. Toss in the egg and beat for another 1-2 mins. The egg makes everything a bit stickier and have a smoother consistency, but it's also quite stiff (at least it should be :P)
5. Put your beater/electric mixer away because for the next step you do not want to use it at all.
6. get a spatula or some kind of nice stirring utensil and stir in the plain flour. BUT DONT STIR IT IN TOO MUCH, because it will become goey and gross. I use a choppy motion with my silicon spatula to mix my dry and wets together :D
7. When it's all mixed nicely, toss in your nuts/chocolate bits and stir some more
8. Roll into little balls (size? however big you want them to be. Take into consideration that they will expand in the oven.
9. When they all look like balls, dip a fork into some plain flour (to make it not stick to your cookie balls) and push down the ball slightly so you flatten the top. I make criss cross patterns on the top and it doesnt show in the final cookie. Do that for all of them
10. PUT INTO OVEN AT 180deg C BUT IF YOU HAVE A FANFORCED OVEN set the temperature to 160deg C. :D Leave them there unattended for 15 mins. After that time period, go back to check very often. If they've started to brown at the edge, you can take them out (when I say brown, I mean light brown not charred. lol).

The cookies are soft in the middle. yumyum

BTW BRANDS in flour do make a difference. I've been using home brand (because man.. i've been using their plain flour for ages) HOWEVEr I tried a different brand recently and I realised how different the results are! Homebrand plain flour absorbs up oil faster and I don't think it's that great anymore :O:O:O

ANYWAY we have more pipecleaner fun in bio today XD

AHAHA so cute :)

WOLVERINEWOLVERINEWOLVERINE :D

Okay. What happened today?

1. morning class- lost in translation (TY Mawson for the lift)

2. class

3. free- SIXTH SENSE

4. recess- nothinngg except ate

5. bioo

6. lunch- PROJECTOR RIGHTS MEETING, hokay brief summary: NO pirated movies (incl downloads D: which sucks) we'll prolly get a DVD player that wont play pirated dvds *sigh* and um NO MOVIES IN FREES (far out. T_T) I have to say. Didn't get a proper chance to say anything. Chris Au's chocolate wafers were just T_T; too distracting. jk jk. A particular COCKY person sort of hogged all the talk time and he/she INTERRUPTS everyone else talking so I just spared myself the grief/aggravation I would feel if I got interrupted like that. Honestly. Such a freaking hard thing to get a say in the meeting without getting refuted by that ngghish person. I'll say here, GO TAKE YOUR LAWYWER LIKE ATTITUDE TO UNI WHERE IT WILL BE BENEFICIAL. No one likes a smart ass in high school. I'm too chicken to say it to his/her face :) Many of you know who I'm referring to. teehee.

7. CLASS

8. CADETS. Hyde Park stuff. Nothing much to add. EXCEPT IF I SEE NATHAN REES I'll take a photo with him (and do a nice paintjob? hehe) or Verity Faith? Yeah. I asked if I could bring a camera and YESSSSS. teehee.

- 300g self-raising flour
- 150g caster sugar
- 140g white Choc Bits
- 75g coarsley chopped macadamias, toasted

METHOD: (teehee prac)

3. Bake muffins in moderately hot oven (180 degrees) about 20 minsutes. Stand muffins in pan for a few minutes before turning onto wire rack.

Serves 6- huge muffins, 12- normal sized cupcakes.
