Dexter

It's Friday!

Saw lots of my coursemates posting how scared and nervous they are for the pre-registration exam in UK today, makes me feel depressed. Well, obviously it's because i still waiting for the pre-reg training in Malaysia and they are already 80% done with theirs. How irony, i was like the top student in my class but end up so much slower in progress in being a registered pharmacist. This lesson teaches me that top student is definitely not everything. It's more about attitude and character of a person rather than the results he can get. But well, at least i know it now and i know what i want. Rather than struggling in a high pressure oven, i choose to slow down my pace and think about what i want really. I guess it was still a good call. Thank god i skipped class, so that i have this extra time to think.

Well, today, i'm gonna introduce a rather violent US series, Dexter.

It's one of my favourite detective/police drama apart from Criminal Minds. And yes i hate CSI and NCIS. Dexter is about a guy who works in Police department as a forensic guy focusing on blood spatter. Aside from his routine job, he is also a serial killer that takes down other serial killers. The drama is about how he balances his life between being a normal person and a serial killer and how struggling sometimes it can be.

There are 7 seasons to date and the 8th season, which is also the finale season will start airing on 30th June, this Sunday =) So excited that it is gonna start again but on the other hand it's kinda sad to know it's the last season already. It's like House MD, i was so into that drama and suddenly it ends. I guess things are better off if you end it when it's great. Rather than making some shitty episodes, they choose to end it before the reputation gets bad. Wise.

The legacy of Dexter! People that are killed by Dexter and these are not all. Particularly love the interaction between him and the Trinity killer. On the other hand, love the actor playing Dexter's son, Harrison. He's such a cutie pie!

Not gonna do any spoilers, but if you love serial killers and don't mind to see lots of blood and other disgusting violent stuff, please do try watching this series.

Diarrhea attack

Sorry people, no updates for today as I'm having diarrhea suspectly from last night's supper or whatever. Talk to you guys tomorrow!

Little Bit Of My Life

Finally it's raining this week! Hope the rain will wash away the haze and give us a nice clean environment again. Also saw the news that Indonesia finally apologize to Malaysia and SG for the worst haze situation to date. Well, good news i guess.

Was making some ice cream to eat with my chocolate mousse last night and it's quite a success. Can't wait to share with you next Monday =)

Recently i am reorganising my laptop stuff and found out i have some half-written stories and a series of short articles in my folder. Would love to share it here but it's in chinese. Trying to continue with the writing process and when it's time i will share it here =) I guess i still write better in chinese rather than in english lol.

Not much to write today as I haven't done anything special except visiting my grandma in the hospital. Not gonna talk about the hospital stuff as it's very frustrating and disappointing most of the time. And that including all the illegal parking in the parking areas, ward conditions and everything. I guess that's what they can offer in government hospital when patient's bill is heavily subsidized. Compared to Singapore General Hospital, SGH is like a 5 star hotel with lots of staffs and advanced hardware.

Well that's all for today and see ya tomorrow =)

FOB Saving Rock & Roll!

Sorry guys, pretty busy this week as my grandma is in the hospital due to some bone fracture from a fall. Have to be the driver and send my mum to and fro hospital. Not too bad actually cos i get to fast and furious on the road haha.

Anyway, the haze situation is kinda getting better now so hope you guys are well and have your face masks prepared. I am quite surprise to see not a lot people wearing mask around the hospital area. Maybe they are all smokers lol. The hospital is very near to the sea so the smoke is more concentrated around that area. Well i wear my mask.

So, no DIY today. Just gonna share with you guys a great news! I just found out that Fall Out Boy will be in Singapore for the Save Rock & Roll world tour! So freaking excited right? Omg FOB is like the coolest band ever, and their new album rocks! Pardon me for all the exclamation marks haha. Too excited =D I'm so gonna go to their concert in August, hope i can get someone to go with me. So they can record the videos while i scream my lungs out haha. Too bad my concert buddy not around and i can't share my joy with her. But anyway, i'm so looking forward for them to be in Singapore!

Ok that's all for the day. Gonna get the tickets fast =)

Chocolate Molten Cake

Fresh from the oven people! Just made the chocolate molten cake and here I am sharing with you guys how I made it :)

Anyway I used the recipe from bbc good food but varied a little based on the ingredients I had at home. Also i prefer less sweet so i reduce the amount of sugar and substitute with cocoa powder. So I will share my recipe here:

50g butter

50g cooking chocolate 

2 medium eggs

40g sugar

25-30g unsweetened cocoa powder

20g all purpose flour

The steps were same as the recipe. Melt and mix the butter and chocolate. Then mix with other ingredient until smooth. Be careful not to cook the eggs so i add the sugar with eggs and other ingredient before mixing with the hot mixture. Then before the chocolate start to solidify, equally pour the mixture into ramekins or other oven proof material. I would suggest to use baking paper to line the container so that it won't stick. Alternatively you can spread some butter in the container. Oven at 200 degree Celsius for 10 minutes in my case. Then just invertly push out the cake onto a plate. Serve with whipped cream will be heaven!

If you want something from fridge you can also put the mixture into the fridge and make chocolate mousse instead. Which is equally nice. 

 

 This is the chocolate mousse. Smooth and thick, the way I like it.

Da-dang!! Chocolate molten cake. Look just like the way I want it. Liquid chocolate bursting out from inside. Coolest successful dessert I baked to date haha.

Hope you guys like it:)
