I heart strawberries

We made chocolate-coated strawberries on Sunday.

Amy and Syl's genius idea to make it into a bouquet and wrap it up for Thilini's birthday present.

I think we had more fun eating the ones that weren't pretty enough to make it to the bouquet. Hmmm no wonder we had so many 'lousy' ones...

I heart strawberries, especially if they come chocolate-coated.

I also heart cupcakes.

Cupcake shops have been springing up everywhere in Melbourne. I admire the people who have enough passion to put their talent into good use.

I have to admit that I prefer looking at the cupcakes more than I like eating them.

Had a craving for wonton on Saturday so Juin made some. Syl and I did the hard labour of wrapping them. Yum.

Sangee's pre-wedding party was amazing. Oh the food they cooked up was glorious. Sometimes I wish she was a chef and not a doctor, although she is quite made for the medical profession.

I feel so pampered :)

Yin's prayer request

My aunt's condition is deteriorating rapidly and I can't do anything to stop it.

I don't understand. I pray every night for her recovery but it just seems like it gets worse everyday instead.

I hate this feeling of helplessness. Of not being able to help my aunt get better. Of not being able to provide the comfort that my mom needs. Of just standing there watching everything go by me.

Cancer is so scary. It's scary cos you know you are dying slowly and painfully but you can't stop it. The treatments are equally if not more painful than the death. It's terrifying. And after years and years of research and medical advances, the doctors still don't know how to fully cure it.

I guess that it's in these times when humans fail that we remember that there is a power greater than all of us.

Please friends if you read this, please say a prayer for my aunt that she will recover soon. That would mean so much to me.

Thank you :)

the Reds are in town...but not mine

The whole Liverpool squad is in Singapore.

Minus Steven Gerrad but who cares about him.

Torres is going to be there!!!

And my siblings are going to watch them play.

I am officially jealous. HMPH.
