hi all~!

It had been so long since I've posted anything here. hmm...

This morning~! Just saw someone was burning some huge pile of woods.. Cant they see the haze~! The haze is so bad to the point I cant even see the sun this morning. I just dont understand these ppl.. either they have problems with their senses for not knowing the current weather condition or they're just plain STUPID~


My meals... last friday...

lunch: chocolate~


dinner: CRABS~!


k..that's all for today~! ^_^

Cabalsea~!

Lately have been trying my best to upgrade my skills in the online game called Cabal sea. It's challenging and fun. This game is quite popular amongst the teenagers.

You are required to follow the given quests in order to upgrade yourself.

You can make friends with the other players and fight with each other. The game has built in chat box with several options such as whisper, guild, neutral and so on. You can choose either one to chat by simply clicking on the button.

The game interface is user friendly and the functions are easy to understand without having to read the long manual.

I enjoy playing this game cause of the design and the low requirements for the installation. You can easily go to http://www.cabalsea.com/ and download the installer. In this website, you can read the details of the characters and the flow of the game. You'll learn more as you play.

Several of my friends saw me playing the game and was interested in the game cause they say that it look interesting and fun.


Have a try.. you might like it.

Friday Nite~!

We were planning to have a bbq but it turned out that we ended up eating dinner at Life Cafe (Carpenter Street). Thanks to the blackout at Ja's house. The SESCO claimed it'll be back on around 8-9pm. We couldnt be bothered and changed our plan to have dinner outside instead. So, we all have our dinner at one of our favorite place. Having the usual, Ma La Mien (Spicy Noodle) & Woh Teah (Pan Fried Dumpling). Nice~! It's kinda disappointing tho coz we expected something else.


Anyway, went back to Ja's house around 9.45pm and it's still dark~! Ja got mad and called SESCO. Didnt know what she said to them but less than 30 mins, the electricity came back on. According to her, the woman on the line sounded quite worried. I think Ja isn't the only one who got fed up. We spent our time having "candle-talk" and trying our best to dig Kareen's hidden secrets. But she refuse to give in eventho we've tried our best to trick her for telling us. So we just talk about nothing and laughed. We were just telling each other our experiences on "the time where you laughed when you are not supposed to laugh and the consequences". It's funny when you think back and listening to others. :) In my case, I have a lot since I have the tendency to laugh whenever I'm too nervous... Not a good thing tho especially when you are supposed to be serious.


Poor Kareen to be having a bad flu and she looked so miserable. Me? I have bad gastric... So, we all left early after the lights came back on. At least Ja wont be alone in the dark. Her neighbors seems to be out and left their house empty. That's it for last nite.. nothing much.


Now in the office trying to kill time..

Today.. at least till 13.30pm

I woke up to a misty morning.. Look like it's going to be a hot this afternoon. Hopefully it'll rain HEAVILY by evening. So at least I will have a comfortable sleep tonite. I like the rain (when I'm at home). (^_^)


The morning starts off with my cat biting my chin.. the story~:

One of the cat kept falling off the bed (twice) this morning, all thanks to me. He slept at the side of the bed, so whenever I move him, he'll fall off. On his first fall, he looked blur so I pretended to be asleep. He climbed back up and went back to sleep at the same spot. The second time it happened, he saw me looking at him from the top of the bed. When he saw me going back to sleep after that, he jumped back up on bed and bit my chin for revenge. What a vengeful cat..


Came to work.. and noticed that the heavy mist outside my house. It feels refreshing and it's a good morning. Oddly, I woke up with a really good mood today. I wonder why, tho. Good nite rest? could be.. or is it caused by the new multi-vitamins that I've been taking this week? let's try it out another week.. If it's really good.. no harm in promoting it to my friends. Health does matter when your body starts to feel the age. no matter how much you try to deny your age, you can't deny the fact that the body starts to age... the wrinkles, the tiredness, the frustrations and etc.. etc.. etc...


Ok, so went to work. decided to finish the model I bought few weeks ago. took me few hours to finish it.. approx about 3 hours. did it slowly and enjoyed it while talking with my colleagues. Spent our morning just relaxing and talking. It's nice. We needed the break from our hectic schedules and frustrations from students. This model is of a ship~! nice!! it's the hardest so far that I've done compared to the other models.

After add in the background image to enhance the ship


After that, we decided to go for Indian food at Bombay Masala. A colleague wanted to have Briyani Rice. I decided to try the Chicken Rojak with Teh Tarik. It's yum~! It look so little but I couldn't finish it eventho I was hungry! It's fulfilling~! Relaxed a bit.. Somehow, we ate really fast. Less than 30 minutes. Must be from all the rushed lunches we always have. We're trained to eat fast in order to catch up with the schedules. Sad, huh? Thanks to my job, I used to eat within 15 minutes. Whenever other departments kept saying that our department is the easiest, I really felt it. Cause no one can ever see our pains and sacrifices. Oh well...

Chicken Rojak with Iced Teh Tarik


Anyway, I'm trying my best to enjoy my life more and appreciate my surroundings. Life is short.. Trying to let go of all my stress and worries. Just like the saying goes " Like what you do. If you don't like it, do something else". Since I want to enjoy my life now, I must do it well too~! q(^_^)p Let's Gambate~!


Took a few photos of the one week old kitten. Cute, huh? But somehow, it reminds me of baby monkey with white fur.. (o__O)


The shy look... not~!

Free flights for Life~!


This guy received the lifelong free-flights from AirAsia. Envious~! (T_T) I was surprised when I first heard it from my colleague who was reading the news online. This reporter was awarded for his continuous beneficial reports on AirAsia. Maybe I should start writing reports on airlines as well. I wont be surprised if the other reporters would start writing for MAS airline. hmm... don't you want to try?

Chicken Pie~!

Baked this last weekend and it took me nearly 6 hours. It's my first time doing it and I'm not good at making the pastry. But, it turned out ok~! Had one and a half for dinner.. damn Nice~! Invited Ja and Kareen but they couldnt make it. Oh well.. Told my sis (currently in her hostel) abt it and was cursed for showing off and tempting her. (T_T)

# 1 Bombay onion, diced
# 100g button mushrooms, quartered
# 75g potatoes, parboiled till cooked and diced
# 75g carrots, diced
# 50g celery, diced (I didn't add in)
# 50g green peas (I didn't add in)
# 1 tin cream of mushroom soup, diluted with 1 tin of water
# 100g Minced pork (extra ingredient)

Seasoning:
# 1 tsp oyster sauce
# 1 tsp light soy sauce
# Dash of white and black pepper
# 1/4 cube chicken stock
# Pinch of salt

Thickening (combine):
# 1 tbsp corn flour
# 2 tbsp water

For egg glaze or wash, beat:
# 1 egg yolk
# 1 tsp water
# Pinch of salt

Method
To make flaky pastry: Place flour, salt and butter in a mixing bowl. Mix till fine crumbs form. Add ice water and lime juice to bind. Knead lightly. Chill for 30 to 40 minutes.

Put dough on a lightly-floured surface and roll into an oblong shape, 38cm x 14cm. Cut pastry margarine into small pieces. Spread half the pastry margarine pieces on the centre of the rectangle.

Fold the left side of the rectangle to cover these margarine pieces. Dot or spread the remaining pastry margarine pieces on top of the fold. Then fold the right side of the rectangle to cover these magarine pieces.

Press the edges well to seal and roll out the pastry into a rectangle. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Repeat this process two times then roll out pastry into a rectangle again. Cut pastry into rounds. Use one piece to line a tart mould. Add filling and egg wash the rim, then cover with another piece of round pastry. Egg wash the top and bake in a preheated oven at 220°C for 25 minutes.

To make filling: Heat 1 tbsp butter in wok, then saute onions until soft. Add chicken and button mushrooms. Stir-fry well. Add carrots, celery, potatoes and cream of mushroom soup. Blend in seasoning. Cook for two to three minutes. Add thickening and green peas. Dish out to cool.

For variation: Brush four ramekins with melted butter. Spoon filling into prepared ramekins. Cut four circles of pastry slightly larger than the tops of the ramekins, and make a small slit in the centre of each with a sharp knife.

Place circles over the fillings and press the rims to seal. Brush with egg glaze and bake in a preheated oven at 220°C for 20 to 25 minutes or until pastry turns golden brown.

Joongbo:18~!

The latest episode is out and it's already translated by chonsa. (Thanks a lot~!) it's so sweet! I want a bf like HJ to HB.. he's so sweet and happy to be with. He's the kind of guy who gives you surprises and happy moments. The kind of person who makes you smile no matter what the situation is. So hard to find yet it's scary to meet one. To me, guys like him is the kind who gives you heartache if your affection is one-sided yet you cant help but to fall for him... you all must read it~! he grows on you..
