The Quarter-Life Crisis by unknown

Got this from FidaAishah's blog, tho i remembered reading it somewhere before. But it doesn't really hit me back then.

So today i read it again and again.....

and Ouch! I relate to this so much!

So, feel free to read it k~ And tell me if u feel the same too....

It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are a lot of things about yourself that you didn't know and may or may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now.

You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you do not realize is that they are realizing that too and are not really cold or catty or mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you.

You look at your job. It is not even close to what you thought you would be doing or maybe you are looking for one and realizing that you are going to have to start at the bottom and are scared.

You miss the comforts of college, of groups, of socializing with the same people on a constant basis. But then you realize that maybe they weren't so great after all.

You are beginning to understand yourself and what you want and do not want. Your opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are doing and find yourself judging a bit more than usual because suddenly you realize that you have certain boundaries in your life and add things to your list of what is acceptable and what is not. You are insecure and then secure. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you or you lay in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough to get to know better. You love someone but maybe love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you are not a bad person.

One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap and getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision.

You worry about loans and money and the future and making a life for yourself and while wining the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender!

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out.

BINGGO!

i'm changing my blog to a new passion.

Let's share delicious yummy but very the easy simple recipes!

Who doesn't LOVE Cheese Cake?

My first ever Cheese cake experiment was a Success!!!!It's really easy! And for that, i'm gonna share it with everyone!

Please, bare in mind, that this is not the actual complete recipe...

This one is fairly easy especially for me to do....

Ingredients:

Oops, u supposed to use 2 x 250g of Philadelphia Cream Cheese tau. Thx to Along for buying me another one.

1. First, u need to crush Bicsuit Marie like this.

Crush it until its really really crushed, like this.

2. While doing that, u can melt the butter. Cut it into cubes, and put it in the microwave for 1-2 mins.

It should melt like this... Okey, let it cool a bit.

3. Now, take an empty bowl and put in 3 cups of crushed biscuits into it. Make a hole in the middle of the crushed biscuits and pour in the melted butter bit by bit and mix it together.

Then put the crust into a round baking pan like this.

Make sure its really pressed into bottom of the pan.

See, this is the crust or the base of the cheese cake. Let it cool in either fridge of freezer.

Freezer is much faster. :)

4. Now Second Part, the best part!

The Creamy cheese that everyone loves it!

Cut both Philadelphia cream cheese into cubes with a 3/4 cup of caster sugar and beat it until its creamy.

5. Ok, once it's all creamy and glossy, pour it into the baking pan,on top of the chilled biscuit crust. Sorry, forgot to snap this steps. hehee...

Let it chilled again in the freezer for like 2 hours....

6. After 2 hours, cut peaches into slices. It can be peaches or other fruits as u like.

And arrange the peaches on the chilled cream cheese.

I arranged it like this, but it's up to u....

Lastly, mix 3 spoons of Gelatine in a 1/3 cup of warm water and pour it on top of the peaches. It'll be like a jelly that holds the peaches to the chilled cream cheese.

And, finally after 2-3 hours of waiting, it's ready to be eaten!

This, i'm telling u is so worth it!
