I just downloaded the blogger app on my phone and accidentally deleted my latest post, which is this post, I totally panicked and managed to recover my post via google cache, thank god!

Greetings, this blog needs a new post!
Since school has started on the 15th of August, I barely had time to do things I like to do; like sleeping and watching TV.
I have dedicated my life to my shop, business is picking up fast since there are hungry students everyday!
I'll be up at 7.20am, by 8.45am I'll be at the shop preparing for the first batch of breakfast students to be down for their break at 10am.
Once break it's over, I'll bake the muffins.
It's a continue cycle of washing, cutting, juicing, blending, washing, cutting and in between everything is to keep the place clean, replenishing fruits.
I have more muscles on my right arm now, my ball speed has increased, hahaha!

My weekends are used for baking my cookies and other things I need to bake.
So technically, I work everyday.
In between I need to reply emails, I have not neglected Ohmymuffins yet :) but I do take quite a while now to reply.

Friday and Saturday was the Night Festival 2011 held by our museums.
Free admission to our National Museum of Singapore and all other museums from 7pm till 2am. Plus there were night performances held right outside my shop.
We were invited to open our shop till late.
That Friday I worked from 9am till 12.30am; it was crazy I tell you!
I don't know what to expect for the night festival but thank god, thank god I had Cindy and Shao Zong to help me and my mum out.
Without Cindy and SZ, I'll probably be lying on the floor fainted.
In fact, I thought I was going to faint at one moment when I was cleaning up.
The bowling kakis came for the museum tour!
Marian came really late, we had supper with her!

The following day (Saturday), Cindy couldn't come but luckily my 2nd sister came to help out. It rained on Saturday so we thought probably not much people will drop by plus it was our President Election live on TV but we were wrong, the people still came in full force, the performance were all push back but people were still coming in!
My secondary kakais came for the museum tour as well!
I probably won't wanna do this anytime soon, it was an insane juicing and blending the entire two nights non-stop.
I can now understand how the people at KOI feels; they make bubble tea non-stop and they do it everyday from morning till night, I must really salute them!

I shall end my post with some photos.



I baked Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffins



One of those lucky hours for supper!


These are 1800 vouchers that I hand cut myself, they have been distributed to freshman students and they have been dropping by to redeem!


The week before school starts, my yakult chiller came :)



Three weeks ago at Skinny Pizza; Raffles City.


Good chocolate tart!


And finally, this is how my current shop looks like!


I'm working really hard now for my shop, hoping to see it grow big one day.
But not all things are working smoothly; well life is never smooth sailing.
Other than facing the challenges of staying alive in a business world, I need to deal with my mum.
Sad to say my mum can be pretty difficult at times, well I think most of the time.
While I'm facing a whole new level of stress, my mum adds more stress to me.
While I'm grateful for this opportunity to have my own business and my mum is willing (or not) to help me out; this has been my dream since primary 5.
But to be honest, I'm not entirely happy at work.
Surely you may think I'm crazy not to be happy when I'm boss but the kind of negative aura I'm getting from my mum can be really hurtful.
While I tell myself to think positivity each day, I can't help but to be affected by my mum's choice of words she said last Monday which is the melting point of me; I broke down and cried out really bitterly, but thank god SZ was there to support and comfort me down.
I never regretted my choice to have my own business, it's hard work, very hard work but I never complained even though it can be really tiring.
I appreciate my boyfriend more than ever because without him, my business won't have taken off.
While I appreciate my mum's help at the shop, I still regretted involving my mum into this business.
At this stage, I can't afford to employ people yet even though at times I desperately need people so that my mum can stay at home. Even if I could afford to do so, finding the right people can be really tough.
Oh wells, what has happened has already happened, I'll just have to suck it up and move forward till end of school term with a postive thinking (I hope!).
