All by myself* - Eric Carmen

The public holiday couldn't have arrived at another better time. I really needed it! And it was indeed good.

Wif me sis away on holiday and me mom at a seminar, I took the opportunity to do something that i haven't had the chance to do - just be alone!

Yeah, having time to be wif meself is something that is really important to me. Dun get me wrong - i love being wif people. That is why i have chosen to be a lawyer in the past and now, to be wat i am. But i still need some time once in a while just to be wif meself, away from it all and from everyone. The events leading up to today made me just wanna turn into a hermit - even if it was only for a day.

So what did i do? Well, i slept! :-) I watched footie - a 4-4 thriller between Spurs and Chelsea. I cooked lunch for meself. I watched a movie on me laptop - Thank you for smoking. Not too bad. Best line of the movie -

'So when do you sleep?'
'Sundays'

LOL! I can relate to that!

And i baked! Baking is good therapy - and i missed the chance to do so b4 CNY last month.

Here's the result:-



Not as good as those made by Carina, tho. She used Nutella while i used some cheap choc-hazelnut spread. Nutella too expensive la...

*The original version (Celine Dion remade it in the 90s) which borrowed heavily from Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor.
