On the bright side, I think I might be doing okay in compsci 313. Shawn is super patient with me in his teachings. I can't thank him enough. I brought his kway teow he left at my place when he cooked for my mom back to his place today, but I forgot to tell him. My mom bought fresh bean sprouts for him. I'll bring it over tomorrow.
SOOOO I attempted to make deep fried dumplings for him today, and tried to make the dumpling wrap from scratch. I failed epicly. I remember there were these deep fried dumplings I bought from t&t before and they were scrumptious, I decided to use them as today's inspiration.
Oh nose...
Mistake #1, Not enough flavouring added to the flour
Mistake #2, Not enough time mixing the egg evenly into the dough
Mistake #3... "attempt" to wrap it beautifully.... but instead it turned out to look like a pile of poo.
I've never had much experience with cooking, but I love to come up with things on the spot and try out new things. But when I fail, I usually fail with misery mixed with laughter for it is in the most absurd ways I fail. Prime example would be today's dumplings. I wish I got to take a picture before Shawn eated it.

I liked that quote so much after reading kingdom come I saved an entire page of pdf with simply that typed in the middle. hyuk.
I found it when I was looking through my old writings.
I remember back in the days when I used to copy out sentences or even paragraphs I thought were beautifully written and saving them so I can re-appreciate them over and over again once I had to return the book to the library.
I found the draft prologue of a dragon story I was supposed to write. I'm going to pick it up again soon. I don't have plot in mind, so I'll just make it up as I go.
Shawn's an incredible artist. I wish I could have a copy of everything he draws.
