Lately, well, especially since the second semester of uni has begun, I've been feeling hopelessly down. A suffocating suppression upon my heart and my mind. Absolutely suffocating. I just can't breathe. How do I gasp for air???

And how do I place a smile onto my lips? How do I make my eyes twinkle? That fake laughter. That fake happy me. I feel as though I must put up a cheerful front so that those who surround me won't be affected by such a depressing mood.

I'm so tired.

Damn it.

Perhaps...Perhaps, it's just one of those moments where you feel as though the world is collapsing and you just gotta struggle and face it head on. I have to face it head on. But it's killing me.

It's stress.

Good gosh.

It's just stress. But stress can do so much.

If only I could just cry - just to break down. And then perhaps, everything will be better...cause a good cry always help.

But I can't.

I just can't.

Somebody save me.

Last Thursday, I baked a large EXTRA LARGE batch of choc-chip cupcakes for the gorgeous preschool children that I've been working with for the past month as a volunteer worker. It is so lovely to see such animated, lively children who adores you as much as you adore them - of course, keeping within the standards of the child protection policy. And what's even more lovely is seeing them grow and mature - taking every little bit of knowledge. And it just reminds you that one can do so much if you try.

Well, it's been a long time since I've baked. And it took me from 3:00PM to midnight to get all the baking and icing done. That excludes the time spent cleaning up. Gosh, thinking about me makes me feel tired. But having seen the children enjoying the cupcakes with such happy delight the following day pretty much makes the whole process priceless. ^-^



I wish I had remembered to buy those patty things to hold the cupcakes. But then again, I don't want three year olds choking on paper. lol.

And after baking, you just gotta test them out and play with your food regardless of whether your mum likes it or not...

And ooh, what's a cupcake without some icing...?? Still a cupcake I guess since I'm not a fan of icing. But good gosh, children love it and supposedly, yes I hate to brag but I must, I make really really good icing. =D







Are you craving for some sweetness? Some sweet cupcakes perhaps? ^-^

Lots of love, Cotton Candy.
