ME
I got the Touchnote I made for Junior last week. It's the 2nd one I've made for him. Originally Touchnote and Samsung Galaxy only allows ONE per household, but for some reason, last week they sent me an email saying that I could send another one for free, so I did it again and I put a Staind picture on it. And this morning, when I went out for my run, I saw it stuffed in the mail slot!!!:D Haha, when Junior's next letter arrives, I'll put both Touchnotes in and give it to him. I hope he'll like them though! His friend Lynn gave him 2 Staind concert pictures and he gave one to me, talking about sharing the Staind love:) Junior's such a sweetheart, isn't he<3 So it's my turn now to give him some Staind love back.
I skyped my mother and brother the entire afternoon, and wrote out a reply to my mommy, along with sending the family an Easter card. I finally used the pretty letter set I bought in Manch! I bought 2 sets and now I'm finally using them lolol! I massively spammed my mother's letter with stickers haha. Because I write to prisoners, and some of the prisons are VERY strict about stickers, so I don't dare put any in in case my letters get rejected. But this lovely lady named Jennifer (she's the Program Supervisor of the Mail System Coordinators Panel of TDCJ) recently replied me and said that I could put flat stickers on the letters (so long as it's not the spam kind) so I suppose I'll put some stickers in my next letters to Junior and Jonathan!
I haven't really studied the past few days (average one lecture note per day lol) but never mind, I'll start back up... soon. Haha, hey I'm on Easter break, gimme some time to do my own stuffs please! I'm expecting more letters soon haha. This week isn't really good mail-wise because the postal service is closed on Friday (Good Friday) and Monday (Easter Moday).
Anyway, saw this on yahoo questions today!
LOL!!!
Look what my mom sent me!!! Loads of junk hahaha.
Haha! I was so happy when I got this! The cake in question? This chocolate cake:
I'd made the cake for a friend's birthday! And the text was from her housemate haha. It's a super rich chocolate cake, and the frosting is very "truffle-y" in nature, as my friend kept gushing that night. It's a new technique I'm trying out- I hate chocolate frosting that's more butter than chocolate, and I've found this frosting that's more chocolate and the richness comes from double cream rather than butter. So the end result is a super chocolatey, "truffle-y" chocolate cake! Guess what, there's around 600g of chocolate in this whole cake alone:) I would be mad shocked if the cake didn't taste chocolatey haha.
I've got yet another long weekend, I've got today (Friday) off. Tomorrow I'm going to eat pies in Salthill with the gang! Still undecided if I should jog there (i.e. burn off some calories before indulging in pie-eating). I haven't exercised the whole week (save for Pilates lesson on Wed) because I came my period haha. I'll start again next week!
Junior and Jonathan's letters came on Monday, and I spent the whole night writing them back. Or rather, writing Junior's letter. I think I spent only about 2 hours on Jonathan's letter, but like about 9 on Junior's??? I slept only at 6am that night:X Had to wake up early somemore cause school on Tuesday was at 9am. I detoured to the cafe in the hospital on my way to school to grab a cup of mocha haha, or else I wouldn't be able to stay awake for the whole day. AND school that day was a full day from 9am- 5pm. I rushed off halfway through school cause bac practical ended early to post my letters off, I wanted to send them off ASAP. So yeah, I was like a walking zombie on V-Day because I'd only slept for 2 hours the night before. I went to school in specs and no make-up lol.
My mom's parcel still hasn't arrived:( She posted it off last Thursday, and yet till today it hasn't arrived yet. I'm eager to see what stuffs she had put inside- she refuses to tell me! She mailed it via registered mail though, and I hope I'll be around to get it because if not, I'll have to go to some post office in Tuam or something just to collect it.
Anyway, I got Dilyso's letter today! It came in the morning but because I didn't go out of the house, I didn't get it till Geraldine came back in the evening and passed it to me. Haha, she wrote it on one of the letter sets she bought when we went shopping in Daiso together earlier this year while I was back in Singapore.
I love the stickers omggg. Here in Ireland you cannot find such cute stuffs anywhere, and in the event that you do, they'll confirm burn a hole in your pocket one.

Monday mail love!:) My mommy sent me a package from Singapore again, filled with cookies, 2 sticker sheets (she knows about my stickers obsession), a shirt she bought at JPO for me, and one of her infamous handwritten letters. I say "infamous" because my mother has one of the most ATROCIOUS handwriting I've ever seen in my life, it's honestly unreadable. It's a running family joke to make fun of it, and no matter how much we try to get her to change, her handwriting is still as illegible as ever. I got the Touchnote I made for Junior last week. It's the 2nd one I've made for him. Originally Touchnote and Samsung Galaxy only allows ONE per household, but for some reason, last week they sent me an email saying that I could send another one for free, so I did it again and I put a Staind picture on it.
