I Bake a Blackforest Cake

maybe for some people they bake this a lot before but this is my first time baking a Blackforest cake. i baked chocolate cake, cupcakes, muffins, bla bla bla but never a Blackforest. so, i planned on baking one since it's one of my fave cake. the cake might look a bit ugly. i cut the basic cake a bit senget. huhuu..... but, ok la. it taste good pun.. (puji diri sendiri =p ).

Yayyy!!!!

Exams finally over. Got 2 papers in 2 days, and now i'm free from the exam-stressed! both papers went just okay. books are away from my sight now. hehehe.... =D

last night, the polymer engineering 4th year students went to have a great mee ketam dinner at Juru, treat from our very own Dr. Zul Ariff. there were like 50 of us, including Dr.Zul and his wife, a vocational officer and 2 Dr.Zul's post-graduate students. thank you very much to Dr. Zul, and have a nice & safe journey~

Eat, people. Eat!

Great Dr.Zul with lovely wife

My big family =D

Lab-mates

so, viva will be on the 28th - 30th of April. got to prepare stuffs for that. but, before i'm getting busy with those things, i am gonna enjoy my days at home....!!! yes!! i'm heading home tomorrow. KL..........wait for me!!!! can't wait! can't wait!

Exam... Oh.. Exam...

i have my mold & die design paper this morning at 9. just dropping by, blog-hopping and check the mails to calm myself down. i cant look at the notes anymore. enough input already. adding some more will just help my brain to explode.

last saturday, students from faculty of applied science Uitm Shah Alam (polymer & material tech) who are also members of Plastic & Rubber Institute of Malaysia (PRIM) Student Chapter: Central Region visited our school (PRIM Student Chapter : Northern Region). we couldn't prepare much since everyone is busy studying for final. overall, it turned out good (i guess.. and i hope). and hey, a friend from SAB, Eza was with the group. she called just few minutes before they arrive and told she was coming too. so loooong since we've last met. pics will be uploaded later.

this baby lappy's hard disk had been cleared. the movies + dramas that i've watched had been deleted. why? because... i'm downloading more and more stuffs - preparation for my very long holiday before my viva (on last week of April, maybe). yay!! i am so gonna love holiday. will be back home for a while before coming back here and working on the presentation. might also start sending my stuffs home... leaving USM, huh~

good luck in your very 'final' exam, Julia~
and best wishes to all..

Final Draft... Finally Submited!

AAaaahhhhh.....~ feel so great & relieve!
after few months struggling with FYP and report, finally the Final Draft has been submitted on the 28th Mac 2008 (Friday) at about 11++ am.

Sciencedirect and Springerlink had been in my top 5 webs visited for the last 3 months besides Google, The Free Library and Friendster. i read at least 2 new journals in a week. lots of topic to cover. lots of things to understand. I've also downloaded 5 complete and several incomplete eBooks. of all the notes ive read, there was one that i liiikkeee so much. make me easy to remember and understand. kalau la semua nota sepanjang zaman belajar ni menarik macam ni, mesti best kan. easier for us to understand. and help me to get attracted to the notes also.

my room was a mess. i couldnt even sleep well on my bed. terpaksa berkongsi kasih katilku dengan buku-buku dan kertas-kertas.

so pity my baby lappy yang demam2 kepanasan.. it get only few hours of rest each day. urmm..btw, the hours of working werent all for the FYP pun.. few hours were spent on Chuck, Gilmore Girls, Awake & some more. =D


"The Effects of Hybrid Fillers on Mechanical Properties of SMR L and SBR Compounds" finally done!

Another most important thing that help me through this FYP thing.

HP 3-in-1 printing my Final Draft.

now i just need to concerntrate on final exam and FYP viva.
Got 2 papers for the final. 2 days in a row. 7th and 8th of April.
Wish me luck everyone~
=)

Akademi Fantasia 6

Selepas berlabuhnya Tirai Akademi Fantasia 6 pada hari ahad yang lepas, maka diketahui lah sudah pelajar-pelajar AF6. secara first impression-nya, aku x ada pulak berkenan dengan sesiapa lagi sepertimana aku berkenan dengan Adam selepas melihatnya buat pertama kali semasa kejutan untuknya dibuat di Astro KK. masa tirai tu pun, x ada suara sesiapa lagi yang nampak sangat outstanding. x pasti la samada sound system yang x bagus atau diorang yang cover-cover lagi, nak buat surprise pada konsert pertama barangkali. siapa tau,kan.

Mampukah AF6 mengembalikan zaman kegemilangan AF 1,2 dan 3 yang kian tenggelam semasa musim ke 4 dan 5. walaupun masih ramai yang menonton, tapi kehangatan yang dialami jelas tak sama.

Kehadiran Saida, 32 dari Pahang yang merupakan kakak kepada Datuk Siti Nurhaliza dan 'nenek' Rina, 44 dari Selangor dikatakan adalah langkah untuk menarik penonton menyaksikan konsert mingguan AF6. sedap ke suara mereka? urm.... tunggu dan lihat.

batu feringi yang cantik

riangnya kanak-kanak bermain...

For you...

Hopelessly Devoted To You

Guess mine is not the first heart broken
My eyes are not the first to cry
I'm not the first to know
There's just no getting over you
You know, I'm just a fool who's willing
To sit around and wait for you
But baby can't you see
There's nothing else for me to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you

But now there's nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm out of my head
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you

My head is saying "Fool, forget him"
My heart is saying "Don't let go"
Hold on 'till the end
That's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you

But now there's nowhere to hide
Since you pushed my love aside
I'm out of my head
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
