Strawberry Heart Gateaux ♥
Made for a very special someone on a very special day...
I spent most of yesterday preparing, baking and decorating this cake (*^^*)
It is filled with fresh strawberry chunks and freshly thick whipped cream, topped of with strawberry syrup glazed fresh strawberries and decorated with fresh whipped cream on the top and sides.

Sun finally hits England... and I finally get hit by money!
Hey everybody!!
Long time no writing! Hehehehe. I hope you've all been well and haven't left this blog. I know I've neglected it a bit from my 'personal touch' (*^x^*) *giggles*.
It's been rather manic on this end. I had several interviews with the big bosses as soon as I got back from my 'holiday' and now I'm frantically writing and editing for my deadlines. *^^* But it's ALL GOOD.
Good news is though I had a absolutely wonderful Birthday month and the sun has been shining like crazy this past week! We were all so worried that the UK won't have a summer this year since it's been raining non stop until this last week. But the sun finally has hit us and warming us all up *^^*
Oh and I've finally been told I've been awarded a Scholarship for my PhD! I'm exempt from fees AND I get some pocket money each year (*^.~*)
(no I'm not telling how much that is *giggles*). It's for THREE YEARS! (*^.^*)
(no I'm not telling how much that is *giggles*). It's for THREE YEARS! (*^.^*)
I was told that I was up against some tough competition in those interviews for the scholarship, including some Law students I saw outside in the waiting room... I saw some seriously tall, macho looking confident guys in suits.
I'm also now Faculty Student Representative of the Faculty of Business and Law for PGR students (Post-Graduate Research). So that means turning up to committee meetings etc. I'm guessing it'll be mostly social events organising since us PGR lot don't complain much (*^.~*) hehehe. Parties, oh yes!
I have a major deadline in August and then a super major important exam in September. But that's not to mean I'm not partying (*^.^*) Well... my idea of fun and partying usually is to do with food...
I adore this patisserie shop called Patisserie Valerie in the city centre. So many cakes and delicacies!!! MMMMmmmmmmmmm~ (o*^^*o)
The one on the left is a Citron Tart, all lemony and zesty fresh, and the one on the right is a Raspberry Tart which is a pile of juicy raspberries piled on top of an egg custard filled tartlet. Gorgeous stuff!

MY FIRST JOURNAL MANUSCRIPT TO BE PUBLISHED!
So after going through a cycle of writing, drafting, re-drafting, trashing, re-doing and editing, re-editing (you get the idea xD)....
And getting SERIOUSLY exhausted from over time.....
No sleep for days.... Minimal food... LOTS OF COFFEE!!!!!!
(Yes, working as an editor writing/making a manuscript takes about 3 weeks minimum... so this anime really does fit the description of my life well!)

My Alice Nine 「９」Album Arrived!
遂に、the album arrived today (*^^*) 本当に良かったですよね〜 I was so happy and yet indescribably nervous opening it. Although deep down I was confident in that good things will happen if you kept believing and trusting; so I in a way, I trusted whoever was on the CD cover was going to be good looking and someone I liked. *giggles* Anyways, the music mattered to me most. After all, Hiroto on the CD label never stopped me from loving GEMINI over and over.
I squealed like a true Oriental girl *giggles*, my parents were like "What's the excitement?!" since I really don't squeal over things usually o(*^0^*)o Haha.

Happy Lunar New Year! General Notice (*^^*) New Updates & Twitter Account!
Hi everybody!! Happy Lunar New Year!! Its the year of the Dragon this year! (*^^*)
I would like to thank everyone who supports this site and have been writing comments in *^^* it's really nice to know there is support and appreciation and what I'm doing is interesting for others as well as myself. If there are any suggestions, comments and requests, please write to me and you will definitely get a reply!!
I have also opened a twitter account that connects with this blog. Please follow @LilDragonBlog !!
As you all may already know, it was the Lunar New Year on the 23rd of January, a festival, sometimes called the Spring Festival that is celebrated widely across Asia; including Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia and Singapore!
So during the time up to the New Year, everyone prepares by spring cleaning thoroughly and buying new household items where possible, like new bedsheets, new towels and flannels, new PJs and underwear! It's all part of the tradition that a New Year needs a new clean start in order for luck to reach our households and stay! (The Gods who brings luck wouldn't want to stay in a dirty house for sure!)
During the festival there's usually a large banquet of luxurious food to have at home, which may consist of roast meats (duck, pork), seafood (fish, lobsters, crabs and prawns) and lots of seasonal snacks, small dishes, and candy/sweets.
For those who visit regularly, you may have noticed a few changes to the site layout, colour schemes and some gadgets. I have been experimenting with some programming and designs, so I apologise if any inconvenience has been caused. Hopefully everything is much clearer to find and the template scheme has made things less cluttered. If there are any suggestions or any thing you don't like, please let me know! *^^*
There's a new music player at the bottom of the screen, and the far right button on the music player shows the playlist if you click on it. I'm happy to put requested songs up, so just let me know what songs you would like, and if a lot of people request it, I'd certainly put that song as the top one on the playlist!
Thanks to the blogger update, I'm now able to directly reply to comment posts, instead of commenting underneath which the commentator may not notice or know about. *^^*
Let's make this year even better than before p(*^^*)q !!!
It's going to be awesome *^.~*
Happy wishes,
From

Well... I'm actually still working right now, preparing my PhD project/research proposal, so I'm technically not free until that is due hehe. But at least it's one down, one to go! (*^^*)
As promised, I will be posting more often in the next 3 weeks (I will be away on holiday afterwards so posting may get scarce). So... to celebrate I will be posting some hot hot photos today!
Keep visiting and leaving me messages, I respond to them all!

DISSERTATION FINAL PAPER FINISHED! Hiatus over!
Konnichiwa! Annyeong! Hallo! Hi! Salut! Bonjour!
\(*^0^*)/
My dissertation is finally finished!!! All published and bound ready for submission on Monday! Which means I resume updating my blog with interesting posts again!
For the past few months I have been stuck in the library and on my computer every day fighting through the work....
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, albeit it hard and tedious. Hehe, definitely worth while getting it all done. We have several opportunities to hand the final paper in, although once you choose the deadline, you have to complete it by then. I've chosen the earliest deadline which meant I have 3 or 4 months to complete my final paper as opposed to the maximum of 1 year. Am so happy! Now I just have to continue my research for my PhD project proposal and then I'm off to Hong Kong for a month!!!
But before then... keep your eye out for new entries on this blog, and please send in comments!!!
See you all soon! (*^^*)
