Whoa, I haven’t had the need to vent almost anonymously for so long. Life has been trickling along like an old tired steam train, ‘going places but it don’t look like it in any hurry’ (said in a african american way). Now that I’ve quit my job at the bank and graduated (finally) from uni I guess everyone expects me to be a contributing member of society. It’s only been a month or so but it’s starting to get depressing since finding a job is like trying to find a wife or a husband. You have to find a job that you’re remotely attracted to then you need to impress them by talking yourself up, and then when some other hottie comes along, you’re as no good as you started. I’ve had 3 interviews all up, one I rejected cos it wasnt paying enough.. only to realise now that it coulda been the one… the second one looked so much better on paper then it did in real life….and the third was… well I screwed it up but the recruitment specialist was a hottie… so not a complete waste of time. 

The great thing about not having a job or many commitments is that I can really focus on my cooking. I’ve started making elaborate meals for dinner and even cooking 2 course meals. The other day I made choc chip cookies…. they didnt turn out that great but were addictive when you started eating them…I think its my oven… I can never quite get the baking thing right…. I made chocolate brownies today… which turned out ok… a little soft in the centre but other than that they tasted great! My next creation is going to be melting moments I think…. they dont sound too complicated to make. This week I have a few dinners to cook. We’ve got some of mot’s friends coming over and they have requested that I cook Pho, I haven’t made it unsupervised as yet… so should be interesting to see how it turns out. Then mik is coming over for some Beef Penang or something like that…. a thai beef curry that takes around 4 hours to make all up, that should be an interesting dish. Then mot’s mums coming over for some roast lamb… one of my fav dishes to cook… I think I love the slow food movement… I’m going to miss it when I get a job…. Although i don’t think this hobby of mine is doing much for my figure… hahaha

Fun times ahead…i cant wait!
