BOOHOO!! Sadness to the maximum level. Well, not quite, just something embarrassing.

I've been going out , work, uploading photos and only touch my handphone when someone calls. Don't even have time to sms cause it is SUPER TIME CONSUMING! My handphone is freaking laggy, thats why I need a new handphone. And my SMS inbox is always FULL, but I cannot delete anymore SMSes, a lot of sentimental value over there.

But that's not why I am horribly sad. It's 3.30am now. I just woke up because I was dead tired until I fell asleep with a full stomach, plus make up and double eyelid sticker on for 5 hours! So my skin kinda aged a few days already and my stomach + face looks kinda puffy. But whatever, thats temporary. Just pat on some anti aging + exercise can cure that problem. On the sadness scale, its only 3/10.

So I woke up, brush my teeth, and in came Eddie HAPPILY, telling me ,
"HAH YOU SNORED... SO LOUD THAT I CAN HEAR IT THROUGH MY EARPHONES. SO I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO SNORES!" 

FML. What the, I was never known to be a snorer, unless I am dead tired (which I am even until now) / have a blocked nose it's a little blocked cause my place is hell dusty or karma. I swear to GOD it has got to do with KARMA someway somehow! JUST YESTERDAY during supper with my colleagues, I was laughing at this guy complaining about a girl who snores in her sleep, and suddenly, I am snoring (according to Eddie) today!

Well it is embarrassing! I don't know if its cause I always complain everyday that he snores in his sleep and sleep talk like hell, and today was the FIRST TIME EVA that I slept before him, thats why he got tendency to exaggerate "my so called snores". What made me even more suspicious of his claims was that he said it with a sign of VICTORY in his face with his fist up in the air (or other hand gestures, but his hand was definitely somewhere up there nearer to the ceiling than the floor).

So I call him to imitate my snores for me to hear cause I was in disbelief - the jaw dropping kind, and all he did was breathe heavily. F him. I corrected him and said "No , that's not snoring," and he just got all impatient and ask me if I want to hear "the truth that I snored" or "white lies that I didn't".

But all those times when I slept till like 4pm, he came back home from 1-2pm for lunch, never see he complain!

Yes, he's probably exaggerating stuff, that drama queen of a boyfriend *comforts self 


Anyway I got soooooooooo much fun stuff to update about, too much that I got lazy. I went to sooo many exciting places, like the beach, Melbourne Aquarium, first NYE in Melbourne, my first TAN, how I made 100 friends this year according to FACEBOOK and friend's birthday dinner today...etc. It feels like an overdue assignment, or old news. And this post as of now is already so long.

I'll just combine Beach and Melbourne Aquarium.

.....

5 of us - my bestie and her bf, me and my bf  + a close friend, went to one of the most popular beaches/ touristy spots in Melbourne i.e. Brighton Beach last year on the 28th of December (hehe) and it was one helluva day to remember, especially how all 5 of us have similar traits i.e. 2 things  - weakness for sales and procrastination. 

Initial plan was to wake up at 9am, do some grocery shopping and make sandwiches until 10+am, and reach the beach at 11.30am. Spend a good 3-4 hours ...picnic and all, come home at 4-5pm, rest, dress/clean up and go dinner with 5 other friends of ours in an expensive restaurant at 8pm.


What happened was -> woke up at 12pm, decided to screw making sandwiches and have lunch in the city instead until about 1.30pm... saw this new shop with sale sign everywhere stating "CLOTHES UNDER $10" and we then convinced ourselves that they have nice beach wears/bags, and we were not properly dressed for the beach/ Panda want to wear matching clothes, and we succumbed into temptations. Spent a whole hour in the shop,  After that went everywhere buying beach towels, snacks, and by the time we were done, and ready to go, it was 3pm. I wanted to not go to the beach already cause I got lazy, but theres like 3 determined people in the group that wanted to go horribly, so reach the beach at 4pm (almost 5hours off the scheduled time).. rot , play sand, camwhore, sunbathe with sunblock on. Rush back to the city at 7.30pm and head straight to expensive PEKING DUCK dinner with our beach hair (ewww), and attire.

Meaningful

To those people who felt that the world is somewhat against you :

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.

I copied from my friend's Facebook status - remember my pretty Jade friend from Pavilion (we were interns together)? yah, her.

very selfless thought. another push to kindness and serenity.

A Big Fat Chef in the making.

One day while I was reading through recipes online, I saw a picture that slapped me right on my face:

Pumpkin Pie!!!!

Don't know why I felt like a slap on my face, but does all Pumpkin pie look alike ? Or did CafeWorld copy their animated Pumpkin Pie

from the recipe website that I saw?

LOOK ALIKE RIGHT!!!! Sorry la if all Pumpkin Pie looks the same, cause I've never eaten nor seen any Pumpkin Pie real life before. Don't want to eat also, I don't like pumpkin.

Okay back to the topic. I baked like....a whole lot of cookies!!

Chocochip Cookies + Coconut

This is by far the best chocolate chip cookie I've baked.

Very fragrant and it's CRISPY!! Will share the recipe next time. Kind of in the rush as I am going to the MSD Steamboat Event later.

The giant cookie:

Greedy face.

Those cookies barely lasts a day. Really yummy. Its by Donna Hay bytheway.

Decided to cook something that I've had in my mind for quite some time :

Noodle campur. LOL.

Too embarrassed to say what I was attempting to cook ...because on the day when I am about to cook, the actual noodle for this dish spoilt, and I forgot to buy beansprout. I used noodles that are meant for soup and I substitute beansprout with onions (wtf).

So the moral of the story is, never delay cooking fresh noodles and always prepare a shopping list!

The end result.

Very yummy actually. Eddie said it's good! Taste like the noodles served in those big chinese banquet. Hehe.

Then baked Chocolate Chip cookies again. Without coconut.
This one is alright, but I prefer the one with coconut.

Baked another giant cookie, but round shape. Always heart shape for Eddie , later not special. But see! his feet near the cookie, damn him!!! He didn't bother to pose with it :@ !!

Immediately after Chocochip Cookies, I bake Butter Cookies again.

hehe, a resemblance of ...? My attempt on Erotic pastry... hahaha.

Nudity is a form of ART okay. I'm not perverted.

See.

Cookie cut them into heartshapes instead as I know it'll be soo..impropriate to serve boobshaped butter cookies.

The end result :2 big bags of cookies!!!

Sugar overload.

Suddenly bake so much because later I am sending my babies (all my baking stuffs) over to my friend for summer :(

They are on the right of the picture.

And there won't be much cooking or baking post anymore when I go back home (Malaysia) next Sunday - 22nd November 2009.

My house got no oven , I'll be busy interning with Pavilion (KL), my auntie will be snatching the kitchen with me, and ... maybe go to and fro from Penang every weekend as my Penang grandmother is very ill...her kidneys failed her. And she has been constantly asking my mother when am I coming back!!

Sigh. Old age. So much trouble and pain.

I am moving to Box Hill, so packed stuffs till 7am today and feeling so sick. Like going to faint all the time like that. Low blood pressure I guess.

So exhausted nowadays, with cooking,cleaning and catching up with friends.

p.s. sorry for the unclear and dark pictures!! My kitchen light all burnt out (as stated before, I think) and I've been baking and cooking in the dark dark kitchen.

Blurness.

Woke up at 6ish am yesterday, and immediately the first thing I did was the handouts. Talking about super last minute!

11am orientation starts, from my place to university takes about 45minutes, and at 6-7am I was on my computer starting from scratch, and brainstorming on what to write on the handouts.

This was what came out of me :

YES, I printed on fullscape paper. I woke up, start on my work immediately and realised my a4 paper finished FML! So no choice but to print on fullscape paper. Looks artistic anyway. How often you see people doing that?

Then I went on printing 20 pages in a row...

now compare the first picture and the second picture.

I spelt "out" as "our" ...and have to colour to make sure they look like "t" with a black pen for 20 pages! :(( FML!

And after that , conveniently forgot to bring my fully charged camera to university. No pictures of the event! :( boring.

Worse, my university staff took picture of my Malaysian Club booth, the picture was sent to all the emails stated above, I look ugly, and they told us they "may" use those photos for their project.

"Thank-you for being a part of our project and we may use this photo on the front cover

of our IUC Literature Review"

halleluyah!
