3 days b4 rewriting the Cake Song

Fri nite, 7.30p.m - my family celebrated my younger sis Su's birthday @ Furama Hotel. Food is decent. I like the "Chinese burger" & mango dessert. Then after dinner, we went down to the lobby where this restaurant which put up a sign that says:

$30++ for lawyers & clients

I was so amused when i saw that. Then i realised that we were near the subordinate courts. That's why...

Sat morn @ 10p.m - my aca grp beats & pieces went to Josiah's friend's place to do our veri 1st recording. Though it was a simple home studio with only 1 mic. The experience was great but TERRIFYING !

My voice was quivering & shivering while i sang into the condenser mic along with the guide track. I couldn't rmb my lyrics to "Born on a new day" that i initially held the score book then later henry held for me & became my "page turner" ! Ai yo, i had the most takes (easily 10 takes though i din count...) !! Now i know how tiring a recording is now that i've experienced for myself. 3 more songs to go...


  1. Rudolph Frosty
  2. Good Ole A Cappella
  3. In Dulci Jubilo

This afternoon - my family celebrated my younger sis Su's birthday. We had Haagen Daz ice cream cake (coconut shavings decorated choc chip ice cream cake). Yummy ! Well, it's rather hard to cut an ice cream as i recalled that one year that my mum used a chopper to "chop" the cake ! hahaha...

As usual, i'm the one tinking the birthday song on my piano while everyone sang along with me.

I was looking at my email on mango cake recipes sent by cowpat. Suddenly, i was "inspired" to 'butcher' Budaks' The Baking Song. See next post...

Why i wrote the lyrics so? Becos on the eve of my b-day, Lis & I going to bake a cake 2gether & hvn quite decided which version of mango cake to bake !
