For those of you who might not know about my one year long as an asian exchange student in American High School, you will probably have to learn that about me now. Oooooh,you knowwww,there's nothing much to talk about.....because if you let me tell you the whole year story,you will have to end up watching me cry and you will probably thinks that's hecka awkward. You'll probably have no idea about what the heck you can do to help this asian girl to stop. Lucky for you guys, i won't talk about it much but dang! , yesterday! , I happened to watch one of the video done by hood river valley high school and i saw myself in it! And that just bomb my tiny- little emotional heart out into pieces. Can you see the picture? Well,i tried my best to find words that help you to see the clearer picture. Hope y'all gettin me at this point. Well,the video reminded me of how i liked to let time go by feeling depressed the whole time,it reminded me that if time has passed,it just has. There's nothing i can do to go back and change it. I mean, I wanted to go back to the time i was in US high school pretty badly,but i know that only miracle would do that. So i came to point where i realized i will no longer walk on the same footprints. In my head,i just kept repeating "I can't be this looser anymore,i can't be this looser anymore...." I mean, look at me. The things i've always strugging with for like ..my whole life are how I've never been happy with the way i look, i've usually never liked the way i treated others,and i've never liked the way i kept taking others' people thoughts into my head. I just can't deal with this for one more second because when i think i will grow old one day (which will definitely be days ) ,and happen to look back over my past. I'm pretty darn afraid that I will only see how depressed and sad i was as a younger self of mine. I'm 21. Should i just be worry about what i'm gonna wear to school today? I mean, Really,right now, all i really want to do is to spend my life,live the best i can and JUST HAVE FUN. I'll probably have kids one day and work monday to friday like a freaking robot. So should i just get up and start Remembering the quote "YOLO"? Okay,let me breath a second. Dang,never let intensity get to you,people. Just breath! Oh,and One of my biggest gold right now is to be able to enjoy myself, to love lyself and be satisfy with the way i look. Well,with all that i've said,I guess i just need to try harder. If anybody interested in joining this club with me today, you will get a cupcake stuffed with heart shape candy inside for your imagination. Gotta go now, Gotta go MMLTMD. -Katy-
Mexican Wedding
Last month,my friends and I threw a mexican party here, in Bangkok. Candice and I were super lucky to be in charge of food and desserts. We decided to make Chili (with a twist of my own), homemade tortia,and mexican wedding cookies. We spent all day standing in front of stove and oven. It was a long cooking day,reminded me of when i was preparing thanksgiving dinner last year. It was a madness. We expected about 20 to 30 people would show up,but it turned out 40 people or so show up, which was really nice and of course,a bit crazy. Candice did a really great job on her mexican wedding cookies. Lots of people kept telling her how good it tastes. So I thought why not post this recipe on our blog for those of you who might want to try ake this at home. Oh don't forget to go wild with the powder sugar. The more the A-M-A-Z-I-N-Gerrr.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all purpose flour

- 3 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup and a half of chopped cashew.

Bake the cookies for 15-16 minutes or until set but never let it be too brown.
After taking the cookies out of the oven. Let it cool down for a coule minutes, Then,roll them in power sugar.
Roll them in powder sugar twice for a nicer cover.
