I'm back, I'm back! Finally, after weeks of revision and exams, I am free now with my last ever four month Summer break! When I got home, after my exams, I literally smiled like an idiot to my computer (the thought of being free to watch unlimited amounts of dramas and movies, read as many blogs as I like, watch as much YouTube as I like, etc.) 

But don't worry, that feeling only lasted a week. Now I feel as though I'm wasting a lot of precious time, and that I should be doing something right now, which is true since I've just completed my second year of university I should be looking for ways to expand my knowledge and work experience. Therefore, I've decided to post a list of things that I plan to do over the Summer holiday on here so I have no excuse to procrastinate!

Things I must do:
* Find a part time job
* Do some sort of volunteering
* Look into places for work experience (as part of my course)
* Get back into a regular blogging routine
* Exercise more regularly and consistently
Things I should do:
* Read more books
* Think about what I want to do when I graduate
* Learn another language
Things I want to do:
* Bake more
* Draw more
* Explore more
* Take more pictures
and... I think that's it! Well for now anyway, I will probably add more to the list later on. 


Actually, in fact, I managed to accomplish a few things on my list since yesterday. As yesterday was Father's Day (in the UK anyway), and since my dad doesn't really ever use the expensive things I get him, I decided to gift him a sketch of my favourite picture of my mum and dad. Although, I did well on my dad, I may have accidentally turned my mum into an alien-like creature (hehe^^;;), but my dad said it looked 80% like the actual picture so I'm a happy girl! I also baked a blueberry and lemon drizzle cake for him (although it kinda stuck to the pan and fell to pieces T^T). But still... it tasted good and that's all that matters right?!

Anyway, end of blabbing. Hope you all enjoyed Father's Day and look forward to my future posts upcoming!

I did some damage today.. *sighh* this is what happens when I haven't been shopping for ages and then suddenly get exposed to new product releases and offers!! Not to mention the super nice day today! But since I've spent enough today, I think that'll be it for now (well.. atleast until after exams). From this week onwards I'm going to be going into study mode so I probably won't be able to update my blog regularly until next month. I guess education does comes first before anything else, so I better keep my head down and work hard!

Today I went to my aunt's place to belatedly celebrate her birthday, which was on the 25th April (happy birthday 阿姨!!). As per usual, she whipped up a huge variety of savoury and sweets and provided the best hospitality anyone could get ask for! I mean, having an almost unlimited supply of food... you can't really go wrong there! I kid you not, my aunt is seriously awesome at cooking - hence my morbid addiction to food.. ><. To let you have a 'taste' of the mouthwatering feast we had, here are some pictures that I took..

Crusty selection of bread: olive, sourdough and cheese and onion
 Goat's cheese with chive and pomegranate
Lemon madeira cake with lemon fresh cream
 Maple syrup chicken wings and ribs (even though it looks burnt, it's actually the syrup^^;;)
Cheddar cheese and sweetcorn scones
Fresh Kimchi that I made as a gift
