Because I'm a chocoholic

Ahhh... this is going to be one tasty entry =p Since there's nothing to post, i'll talk about one of my loves in this world... chocolates!!! =D

This is dunno what name choc cake from Chilli's. Since someone said her pic not good enough for the blog, i posted this specially... anyways, tasty cake =P We had this during PL's and my birthday last year.



This is a Kit Kat............ NOT JUST ANY KIT KAT..!!!! This is a UK Kit Kat... How is it any different?? Extremely... This is like THE best tasting Kit Kat in the world.. Msian ones sux.. and anywhere else for that matter... I mostly get my fix of these UK Kit Kats when my relatives from England come to visit.. and thats like once every 2 years or so... And when they come with luggage loads of these chocs, I have to "fight" with my dad for them cos he hides them from us!!!



These are the chocs my mum bought recently from Aussie... (note the cute little platypus and koala :p ... on a seperate note, the platypus is named "apple" by Wen Bin and the koala is named "the koala" by me :p) Sadly, they're not all for me (the chocs, not the toys)... I only manage to grab 2 or 3 of them for myself... ah well...



Next up, one of my all time favourites... Kinder Bueno... Not much choc on it, but still falls under the same category :p I think i eat these almost every week... One time, i ate 6 of these in 2 days!!! And i dont mean 6 individual packs inside... 6 packets meaning 12 individual ones!! I think I need some funding to finance my chocolate craze =(

And this here is a Choc Moist Cake from Chocolate World, located in Ikano... I first came across this lovely thing one day when i came home from library and hanging on my room door was a plastic bag with the cake inside!!! (someone up there loves me =p) Looks kinda big... but i can actually finish the whole thing in one go! And one of these just cost RM6.90... very worth it... very chocolatey... unlike those other so-called choc moist cakes you buy outside or in supermarkets at about the same price where there's hardly any choc taste, and the only thing chocolate about those is the colour...



This is a dessert called "Death by Chocolate", served in Fasta Pasta at Ikano... Taste was below my expectations, given the name... very chocolatey but not all that tasty... and i'm still alive...

And now, the biggest question of all... Why do i eat all these and still not gain weight???
Think some of you wanna smack me edi... hahaha... I cant help it :p

The History of the BOC and its Constitution

I'm sure some of you might be wondering about this BOC thing (and if you weren't, i'm still typing this anyway =P)

The History of the BOC (pronounced "bok" or "bee-oh-see"), Birthday Organising Committee

The very first BOC was established and founded in HELP library some time in December 2006 by KCW and was called the MYBOC (pronounced "mai-bok") which stands for May Yee's Birthday Organising Committee. The idea was very much supported by LMY that time =p LMY requested to join the MYBOC but was rejected. An appeal later was also denied. The MYBOC was a trial run only, which proved successful, and we have it to thank for future BOCs.

Following that, the FBOC (pronounced "eff-bok"), February's Birthdays Organising Committee, was born. After going through several names (FeBOC, FeiBOC, FebBOC, FabBOC) we finally settled on FBOC. After an online discussion with TCE, we decided that she could not be a part of the FBOC for the other two birthday persons (Zynn & PF), as there would be competitors within the FBOC if she was allowed to join. Therefore, in accordance with the BOC's Constitution, we did not take in any of the three.

Soon after, the 10ABOC (pronounced "ten-eh-bok"), 10th April Birthday Organising Committee, was formed for MOCK & KCW's birthdays. At that time, only three members were active in most of the planning and preparations, SL, PL & LMY.

And now, a new BOC is about to begin!!! If you have not read the chatbox at the side, here's what happened:
13 May 2007:
kcw: Attention !!!!!!!!
kcw: As we all know the month of June is coming. And in the month of June, there is a day where 23 years ago a lovely couple, Mr and Mrs Cheng had a son and at the mean time found a baby girl
kcw: I know everyone is busy studying... but.... sigh....
kcw: Firstly is to name the BOC... D&DBOC.... or DoubleDBOC.... or does anyone hav another
suggestion...
dennis . . .: DDBOC! ;D
kcw: i m sorry dennis... u n ur "sister" cannot be part of the BOC.... it is BOC Constitution and By-Laws...
kcw: so u hav no say in wat to call the BOC
zynn: Maybe u can use Cheng & Cheng BOC

After much consideration and deliberation, the new BOC will be named TwinBOC (pronounced "twin-bok").


The Constitution of the BOCs

1. The Birthday person in which the BOC was set up for shall not in any way be part of the respective BOC or participate in its planning.
2. If any of the BOCs are set up for more than one person, none of that persons will in any way be part of the respective BOC or participate in its planning to avoid any conflict of interests.
3. Members of the BOCs will include everyone else (friends, aunties, uncles, pet dog, grandparents, etc.), active or non-active.
4. An independent BOC Chairman (the BOCC, pronounced "bee-oh-see-see") shall be appointed to oversee the BOC and its activities and cannot intervene unless needed.
5. The immediate past birthday person shall become the next BOCC if he/she does not decline.
6. Meetings of the BOCs may be held with or without all members present.
7. Meetings may be held in person, over the telephone, or through means of online communications such as msn chat and e-mails.
8. A proxy may be appointed if a member is unable to attend meetings but want to be heard.
9. Meetings are held to discuss important relevant details such as the present(s), food, cake, and cash contribution. And also to appoint other positions such as Honorary Secretary (professional note taker), Finance Director (money collector), Communications Director (sms sender) and Chief Purchasing Officer (present buyer).
10. Members are allowed to hold several posts in the BOCs at the same time.

Notes:
~ The Constitution shall be amended when necessary (we are no lawyers)
~ KCW has declared himself to have veto power over all decisions including overriding the Chairman *rolls eyes*
~ The appointed auditors shall be Khoo, Lau and Partners (AF: 8888), Chartered Accountants
