We Need A New Pan
June is flying by faster than I can recall "what just happened?"
I don't know if its a good thing since I've been feeling better and keeping myself busy...but its like a race against time to do so many things..and I'm worried about time and energy running out. Been venturing out more often, meeting friends and exploring new places since my bdae but I realized that has got to cease temporarily considering my other pirorities and limited energy reserve. Sadly, I've been unable to catch up with some people whom I really miss and care about and its tough to keep rejecting people but as one good friend tells me, "they will understand if they are true friends."
One of my recent revived obsession has been cooking for the family and it coincides with my mom's decision to cancel the tingkat delivery. Apparently, the food selection isn't really to the liking of my siblings and it also means we can't choose what we have for dinner. Although cooking gets tiring after consecutive days (especially if you are doing 2 meals in one day), the feeling of serving up simple and decent food which the family appreciates is fantastic. But as it is with my other 101 interests, this cooking thing just remains at the level below passionate, which means I won't be striving to be potential chef in the future or to try out mouth-watering recipes I come across. Besides! I've yet to make a personal trip to the wet market (read not supermarkets) which for people who really like to cook? is a sad case. One of the reasons I've figured why my family enjoy my cooking (not all the time) is because I'm happy when I cook and some of those good vibes must have infected the food as well. (Hao lian!)
Although I've self-proclaimed this period as hermitical to focus on my reading and writing amongst other things, one thing I really hope to do before June ends is to bring my cousins out for a movie or for a field trip to the Science Centre, where the climate change exhibition is currently being held. I haven't really spent quality time with them due to my lack of presence at extended family gatherings and I really miss them. And the thing is they'll all be grown up before I know it and there's some nostalgic element in trying to bring them out while they are still young!
I foresee I'm going to be more active with The Conscious Beat since there are reviews waiting in line and due to lack of time...so well, here's cheers to the best of June! Joie De Vivre!
