People

The current place has opened my eyes to a lot of things. It has exposed me to many different kinds of people out there. From those who appear good and friendly in front of you but are actually otherwise behind you, to those who are good to you only when they require some form of help but ignore you when they don't, to those who have frequent mood swings that you'd have to make a wild guess before you approach the person. And then, there are backstabbers, and those who show their displeasure straight at your face but then there are also those who are genuinely nice and wants to be friends with you. You name it, and I could give you an example of each category. It's kinda interesting to meet these people, even though it may be taxing to deal with some of them. One thing for certain though is that through my experiences with them, I am constantly being reminded not to judge someone purely at the surface. If you're fortunate to explore him/her deep enough, you'd have a better understanding of who he/she really is. Most people just put up a facade to hide certain things which they do not want others to know or just to fit in with the social norms.

Spent the afternoon off doing some baking chocolate chip cookies from noon till 7pm. Yes, when I'm bored and I've got nothing to do, I'll bake. And yes, I took a whole 7 hrs to do the baking. What most people don't realise is that I'm using a smaller toaster oven to do my baking instead of the regular sized oven which most use for their baking. So, every time I bake, I'd spent possibly double the time than most people would. Yes, it's tiring and it's time consuming. But I still enjoy this little hobby of mine. Nothing beats the satisfied looks on the faces of my family members and those couple of treasured friends whom I've given some of the baked products to. They are priceless.

Certain unfortunate things have been happening this past week. I hope everything will be resolved by tomorrow. *prays hard*
