i'm so going to be broke in a few months time.
so many things to buy and pay for, and money always not enough.
i need to win lottery !
oh, someone give me some divine numbers NOW !!

here's why.

1. Graham NEEDS her accupunture therapy session
accupunture therapy is gaining popularity in Singapore.
its a fantastic alternative to invasive surgery for pets,
it is non-invasive, so less risk like anaesthetic reaction, bleeding, infection.
plus with so many pet owners sending their pets for therapy,
there has been many studies, research and development in this area of therapy,
and results have been encouraging.
of course, results depends on the initial severity of the pet's injury.
but my vet said that some paralysed pets had been successfully treated,
and have regain almost normal hind limp movement.

but non-invasive treatment comes with an expensive price tag,
a therapeutic session cost $80 per 30mins of treatment,
each session lasts for 30-60mins depending on requirement.
and most pets require at least 10-15 therapy sessions to show results.
plus, there are some pre-treatment diagnostic imaging and investigations to be done.

i think its going to cost me $1000-1500 in total,
char and i are going to spilt the cost.
so thats about $500 per person.
ouch.


2. I NEED a camera
both of my sony T3 died on me,
and my sister's camera sucks.
i need a camera before i fly off to India !
no camera = no fun in foreign land,
so it is a MUST !!
so thats another $500 plus/minus gone.
ouch.


3. I NEED a laptop to bring along for the India trip
my dad gave me a $2000 budget,
but i really dunno what laptop to get.
and i think its quite waste money to get a laptop just because of the trip.
ouch.


4. I WANT my CK element watch
i went shopping with mellow yesterday,
i showed her the watch that i've been eyeing.
she and i tried it on, and it was absolutely lovely.
my love for the watch is once again renewed.

plus there is a 10% discount on that watch now,
so its $460 now, down from $510.
mellow loves it so much, she's getting it too.
we're going to have same same watches again !
yay !!



in baking news,
char and i made chocolate mousse.
i think its pretty darn good for beginners like us.
even my mum, who is super damn niao about food,
commented that the chocolate mousse was yummy and good.

here's what we used.
whipping cream, 3eggs, some sugar, and baking chocolates.

first, whisk the whipping cream until it becomes whipped cream.
it becomes really nice and fluffy.
i dunno if we could actually used ready-made whipped cream,
thats why we just bought whipping cream, as stated in the recipe.

next, prepare the eggs.
add 3 tablespoons of suagr and beat it up until creamy and even.

in the meanwhile,
prepare the baking chocolate by double-boiling it.
but be careful not to over boil it !!
we did not know that an overboiled chocolate turns into a hard mass which is unusable,
so we had to throw away the first batch of baking chocolate.
when the chocolate is warm and melted,
add it into the sugar, egg mixture and beat it till creamy and smooth.

next, add in the whipping cream.

and viola, we have our very own chocolate mousse !!
remember to chill it in the fridge for at least 3-4hours,
until it has solidify before trying it !
yums.
