` here goes my cookies story.
first, i thought of baking something for BD's bdae. cupcakes/cookies... but i thought alot of ppl had alr baked cupcakes for their loved ones on special occasions so it's nt tt special anymore. thus i decided tt i wanna bake cookies for him, and with "Happy Birthday to U!" on it. even though i din do any baking at all ever since e day i graduated frm sec...im still bent on baking cookies tis time round. and my mom has been like pouring cold water on tis idea on mine n she deems tt it'll be a flop for sure n my cookies gonna turn out to be unfit for human consumption. she still suggested tt i juz grab a pack of cookies off e shelves/queue for a pack @ Famous Amos, tt'll makes my life easier. hw true it is! (u guys will noe y tis is so true later on.) and to my horror, my dad jumped on e bandwagon too... despite all tt, i wasn't deterred at all n i absolutely hav no qualms bot baking since i was in FNN during my upper sec days n my results weren't tt bad too. lols. but but, it reali...turned out otherwise. my first batch of cookies failed, thoroughly. it's obviously over-baked.... sighs. den i tried baking cheese cookies...i thought it's nice but tt's nt e case to others. many says tt my plain cookies are better but still, "nt so nice lehs." alright... im reali sad n kinda down alr cos i noe he wouldn't like it so much too. den e time came, i laid out e cookies nicely on e table...meant as a surprise for him. his reaction to tt was, "Cheyy, like tt only." okie fine. after eating it, he says straight into my face "这个不可以吃的。" referring to e cheese cookies. and off it went straight into e bin. i fuckin swear tt i could feel my heart sank deep down to e bottom at tt instance. my tears r juz in time to gush out of my teary eyes... damn disappointed! and it hurts can! but i noe he meant no harm n i shld hav expected tis kind of reaction alr... cos my cookies reali suck to e core. yes, serves mi right. im juz having an itchy backside to hav decided to bake cookies for him. nw i truly, deeply understand e meaing of 自讨苦吃。 i'll never, ever bake cookies for anyone, anymore. RARRR!! i seriously dun like baking (esp. so after tis incident)... and i believe tt im nt a baker-material. n i took a bloody 8hrs (9hrs, including buyin of ingredients) to do all tt n it turns out tis way. i still wanna bake some for my frens for Christmas...but u c, it's reali so-nt-possible huh. gawd. so ppl, do consider carefully when u wanna bake something for ur loved ones... let tis be a lesson learnt. dun end up like mi, givin an unpleasant surprise to both my bf n I. =( but still, thanz to those who hav helped mi in one way or another...
