I miss home. Home = families (including relatives) , FOOD and etc.

Everything is just better at home ! I shall give up eating dimsum in Australia. Or maybe just Melbourne, cause I had pretty good ones in Sydney. Families...cause I missed my cousin's wedding. Life sarks.

I know I shouldn't complain, cause I chose this route, but ah wells, endure it all now whilst I am young, and enjoy life when I am older.

Back to giving-up-eating-dimsum in Melbourne.

Today, got woken up horribly at 9+am to go to this place that's ALWAYS FULLY BOOKED for dimsum. I had only what, 4hours of sleep and worked till almost 2am the night before.

Should've read the signs.

1. Period came the night before, like just yesterday! Work + period = lifeless. Like literally.
2. It was raining = good weather to sleep in.
3. Place is half an hour away, bookings is at 11am, I have work related meeting at 1pm.

Wow, rushed like mad, both my eyes have officially have double layer eyebags. It's not there when I am well rested, not very obvious when I am extremely exhausted... but very obvious in pictures. FTS.

Let the pictures and some captions do the talking :

 Good weather to sleep in ! WHY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just woke up with puffy face. didn't even put anything on my face except some mascara, that I ran out of the house before it dried...

❤2

Hence the picture up there on the right, rubbing smudges off my eyes.. using my camera as a mirror !

I looked kinda pissed the whole morning actually, absolutely NO ONE talked to me. Friends all just look at us, talk to Eddie. :'(  So I BBM-ed with a friend :'( I am a texter, not a talker.

❤3 The place:


Well, frankly...if you compare this place to other chinese restaurants in Melbourne, the food here is good, but still...can't beat any random street stalls in Jalan Ipoh,KL Malaysia!!! 

❤4 Chicken congee (Crystal Jade (non halal) in Pavilion's Congee FTW ):

❤5Hongkong Char Siew Cheong Fan..too fatty and no taste -_- :

❤6Oh, the only thing that I really like is this yam cake filled with pork (WU KOK) :


❤7Then friend ordered something funny ....the cheung fan with yao char kuai/fried chinese donuts and vegetables inside ! wtf.


It's something different, but.... no taste ! :( We usually eat fried chinese donuts with tasty porridge, or on its own, cause its oily and crispy. Once it's wrapped up like that, it's just soggy and oily. -_-.

Also veggies without oyster sauce is quite tasteless already.. coated with another transparent sheet of tasteless cheung fan...wah, f my tongue/tastebuds. Tasting nothing.

This is what I call empty calories. Not potato chips.

❤8Then I ordered durian puffs. hehe. I have a weakness for durian. Anything durian-ny, I sure order one !

Also, almost everything have prawn inside. Sigh. I mean for Har Gao (prawn wraped in dumpling skin) ...of course you can have prawns inside. But SIU MAI (some porky dimsum dish)?!?!?!?! Why Siu Mai have prawn inside one, like since when? The ones in Malaysia is just pure pork...

Prawn and pork is just the weirdest combination ever. If you don't eat pork, just imagine prawn and beef. But then again I don't eat beef. Prawn and chicken lah. Damn weird!! Bad weird.


Ok, the end for the restaurant.

❤9After my face warmed up :

Was still grumphy but not so much anymore..

Then attended a meeting 5 hours long (and free lunch), like immediately after my dimsum. Ate two slices of pizza after dimsum #dietphail. 

❤10And when my face is like fully warmed up and slightly flexible...still very tired (right before my 5hours of nap) :
 Oh, just noticed I got a dimple on my..CHIN?!


❤11After that, write minutes of meeting with a saggy expressionless face, decided to camwhore again :

with my iPad.

hahaha. Thank you , boss! Okay fine, it's for work, but hehehehe, I can use it to my heart's content =] 

❤12Something to share , my cousin's wedding photo. Pretty right! I would say..beauty and the beast. Just like me and Eddie :p (big kiss to my cousin's ass)


JOKES!

Anyway, something to say about looks. I think girls look different all the time as I've shown up there! Bad puffy face day, exhausted tired face, or stayed too long outside until our make up smudges/lost its magic... we'll just look horrible.

But when we just finish bathing fresh face and all, or fresh make up, or just groomed ourselves, or well rested...we look superb!

Whereas for guys, most of the times, you all just look the same. So to all good looking guys..I think you all are GOD-SENT! Unless you all put like nude make up, I don't know.

KK. GOT TO SLEEP. 5.20AM ALREADY !!!
