  • omnomnom ~

     Although i should be revising for my upcoming exams, i haven't blogged in a while and decided a new blog was needed. This is dedicated to my adventures in the kitchen (that actually turned out edible ^^)

    browniesBrownies ~ 

    This was my first attempt at brownies for my physics class (it was my turn for cake day) ~ they turned out alright for my first attempt, in my opinion anyhow. However...the second try was better, i had a slight muck up with the brownies at my first attempt, hehe (the photo is of my first attempt, i forgot to take a pic of my second attempt >.<)

    Jam Drops ~

    I made these the day before Mother's Day so i decided to make them heart shaped ~ hehe. The texture  of the biscuits came out quite favourable - crumbly and soft. The Jam gave it that sweet edge, mmmm ^^

    Sushi ~

     I'm not entirely fond of sushi but it is quite an enjoyable snack ~ although quite expensive...eep! These had prawns, salmon, cucumber, tamoyaki with sushi rice wrapped in sushi nori. mmmhmmm! ~ 

     

     

    ~~~~31.03.10~01.04.10~~~~31.03.10 23

    31.03.10 1 We celebrated my friend's birthday by heading down central after half a day of  school (we weren't bunking!) ~ we had Korean food, mmmm <3 (i have no idea why my fingers are like that in the picture so please ignore that...).
    We took some photo stickies and while some of us were customising the stickies, we were mucking around taking photos in the booth (my friend said it sounded like we were breaking the machine? ehehe...)
    On the train to my friend's house i was told to 
    Valerie: "you should your panda" (my phone charm one from hk) 31.03.10
    31.03.10 17Me: "with what?"
    Valerie: "you should wash it with soup"
    Me: "...LOOOL."
    (obviously she meant soap, hehe)
    ~~her house~~
     My friend decided to squish up close to my on the sofa, as a joke so when she moved away...(we joked around a bit)...i did the same to her (this was all said in Cantanese).
    Jessie: "Why are you sitting so close to me?!"31.03.10 30
    31.03.10 29Me: "because i like you!"
    ...and at that exact moment...against all my luck...Valerie's mum walks in. Worst of? It was my first time meeting her. Amazing first impressions no? >.<
    I haven't had such a funny dinner in ages, and i can't even remember what we were laughing about...i assume they were more "you have to be there" moments, rather than funny stories to tell ~ (Valerie and her sister are so amusing...they play with food as well (photo evidence). I nearly choked a million times that meal...woah
    We watched 2012 and the photo below was taken during Paranormal activity ~
    that's me on the right, Valerie (middle) was hiding for half of the movie and the one of the left screamed at the end...without waking anyone up - talent!
    31.03.10 32  

    After watching paranormal activity, Valerie's dad managed to count 5 people in the room in the morning when there was only 4...creepy >.<
    Valeries dad put out bowls of soy sauce for the dim sum (wor teep, yuuum) for breakfast while we were eating omelettes and toast. Valerie managed to convince Dahae (korean friend) that we eat toast with soy sauce and dipped a piece of toast into soy sauce and helf it out to her and told her to try it.

    ...so i'm laughing with Valerie's sister and what does Dahae do...

    She took a bite of it. 

    Silly Girl xD

    I blogged this instead of revising for my exams...what an amazing use of time hmm ~

  • racial familiarity ~

    I'm going to admit to this. In a room full of strangers the first person I tend to notice or interact with is most likely to be someone of the same race ~ obviously i still interact with other races!

    I've brought this topic up as i was on the train yesterday and sat down next to an elderly Chinese lady who started talking to me in Cantonese for the entire train ride (I was with my English friend here but i couldn't exactly not talk to the lady as that would be plain rude, so my friend sat next to me awkwardly not understanding a single thing in the conversation between the lady and I). I couldn't even apologise to my friend because it turned out the lady was getting off at the same stop and she just got off school where she was learning English and Mandarin!! (She also passed her driving test not long ago)...She even said my Chinese isn't that bad...woooo for a BBC!

    I overall found the lady quite sweet but i found it awkward because i didn't know whether to pay attention to the lady or politely try to get her to stop talking so i could continue conversing to my friend...

    do you approach people of the same race? ~

    ~~~ 25.09.09 ~~~

    On top of the elderly Chinese lady, a lot of events took place yesterday.

    My friend's shoe slipped off under the train. We had to get back off the train and waited till it departed before she jumped on the tracks and got it back ~ at first it was a "freak out" moment before i cracked up laughing my head off...daaaamn i'm kind of evil >.<

    My Chemistry teacher decided to insult my entire class for the whole lesson. So she started of the lesson saying that she's appalled at a piece of work we handed in when she didn't tell us what to do in it in the first place...which technically gives her no right to be disappointed when we had no idea what we were doing!! She called the entire class stupid several times and she went "the clever people should do some extension exercises *glances at a certain girl* and that the stupid ones should do more easier questions to get the hang of the topic. She said that her last A level class all got As in Chemistry and that she was really surprised about it because even the stupid ones gots As - she really needs to start using a new word. She compared a girl, that she praised at the start of the lesson, to the hare and the tortuoise by saying she waas the bottom of the class in her GCSE year when she clearly wasn't.
    ~ this woman cracked my whole class up so much only because she wasn't joking when she insulted us ~

    I got a ride in a sexy caaaar that made an awesome rumble noise and yay for fast driving ~ owner's planning to sell this car and getting a white supra with a 3 litre engine and twin turbo...HOT.

  • summer 2k9 ~

     I honestly can't remember the last time i blogged - EEEP. A lot has happened since you last heard from me so this is going to be a "mini"-update on my life ~

    HK 2k9 ~

    DSC00042 My holiday to Hong Kong was amazing - the best holiday (this is my fourth holiday) so far although it could've been better. Aside from my dad being nick-picky with food n me being slightly ill i loved hk! Would've been even better if i actually had time to go out with my friends but i can't complain seeing as it was more of a family holiday rather than just me ~ which is why i want to go back to Hong Kong with friends in perhaps...2 years time if i'm allowed? Straight after my A levels during my next extra-long summer! Should be hardcore!

    The heat was...rather suffocating (i found it difficult to breathe at times whichCIMG5826 was why i carried a fan with me everywhere so i don't die some suffocation!!) but was manageable - my family couldn't really take it 'cause it was so humid but i didn't have a problem with it other than the suffocating feeling.

    We went to ma tao to eat dinner - it was...a different experience and the food there wasn't too bad  although it got rather scary at the idea of falling off the edge into the water as the path was narrow...we were actually eating on the CIMG5841dock part that sticks out into the water? If you get me...i'm not making much sense!!

     My yee por goes to wak heen everyday so we had fresh heen n lil crabs to eat ~ woaaah i love my seafood ahhhh <3

    I went various places ~ Mong Kok, loads of shopping done there, went several times in fact for Lui yun gai, fa yoon gai n miu gai etc ~ love the place!! Disneyland was alright, great DSC00137opportunity for photo taking although my camera and phone were running low on battery by the end of it (eeeeks!) - we didn't stay for the fireworks as my little sister had fallen asleep n it was raining on and off the entire day (annoyingly!). What's even more annoying is that i could've gone chern k with my friends that night but i was already booked to go disneyland with the family ~ ahhh - i couldn't back out seeing as we already arranged to go with someone else who was getting us in for free (yes! i know people hehe)

    CIMG6027 CIMG6026 I met a lot of relatives that i never knew existed ~ a bui yee even made us poon choi!! It was delicious yuuuum!!! DSC00276

     We went to the big buddha - my older sister was near fainting half way up the stairs?? perhaps the heat was too much for her ~ i was just wondering around taking pictures non-stop! Although...the best part was probably the crystal cable car (360) - it's not really worth the extra money (WARNING TO YOU DSC00176PEOPLE PLANNING TO TAKE IT!!), i found it more fun waving at people in other cable cars and seeing their reactions (ohhh it was so funny hehe!).

    IQ bot see in Ching Yi ~  CIMG5850

    We even went han been yuo sou ~ swimming in the  hill stream water thingies?? I went to the highest part so i got the water CIMG6408before everyone else hehe ~ it was near impossible to walk there unless your use to it though...loose rocks n everything made it really dangerous n the rocks in the stream was slippery - slip n you'll probs crack your head open - AHHH!!

    I'm not going to say much more about hk as...well...it's so amazing you have CIMG6348 to visit to see yourself! ~
    CIMG6361 but i will say that HK people stare even more than Londoners...hahaha just to put that in randomly n their rather rude as well...two girls took a photo of me (with the flash on...) on the train, whom i would've shouted at had the train not been so silent so i settled for glaring instead...which made them run off the train...oops....ummm i got waved at??? ehhh and people in HK don't give their seats up to the people who need it more...they even bash into eachother head on with their trolleys in supermarkets...I JUST DON'T GET IT!!!

    DSC00460 ~ My monokuro-boo collection ^^ n my plushies! DSC00438

    oh and we got accused of kidnapping my cousin while going through the UK entrance thingy...woop...

     

    Kingston ~

    (this guy has been making me sleep late and waking me up at ungodly hours the entire summer...MY EYEBAGS are so cringe...hmph!)

    I walked 20 mins to the station...then took a 1hr 30 min train journey that lasted 2 hours due to a train problem...to go see a guy (no one was free to come so don't imply anything here raaaawr!) ~ daaamn >.< it was an overall alright day ~ i'm so not use to going out one on one with a guy...hmm...i got home at 11.30 when i was meant to get home by 11?? but it was alright because i was texting my mum where i was the whole journey home ~

    What' even funnier is that after this...he started phoning me loads...he fell for me when he said he wouldn't...but we've settled it between us and he was going to blank me for a year (he said because he couldn't help me "develop" anymore but shhh...he was just making things awkward which was really bad as it made me stress seeing as i had a chern k event that sunday and i only knew him n another person going!) But that got sorted out and we're talking again ~

    My second chern k ~

    I went chern k again last sunday as well as going to final destination 4 3D!!! WOOOO ~ So it was rather awkward between me and this other guy (it just didn't flow??) ~ wish there was other people there to be honest but then we bumped into other friends and hung around for a bit until the movie (they kept teasing me about him ahhh!!). The movie itself wasn't as good as the original 3, probably because they were beginning to run out of ideas - but the 3D effects made it worth watching ~ i'm rather upset that there are no more sequels but i guess that they can only think up so many ideas and it'll just continue being sequel after sequel which probably isn't a very good idea!

    We met up with a load of chinksters....all of which i didn't know...aahahaha...cringe! There was a old man measuring fingers and looking at their palms saing their "hunters" or "gatherers" etc?? It was so weird...if you ask me that man is a bisexual pedophile just wanting to touch youngsters hands haha ~

    The actual chern k part was alright, it was awkward at first seeing as i only knew 3 people out of the 25+ but i mingled (i've gotten quite use to just going up to random people in events/situations and trying to make friends over summer - i'm becoming less shy!! woop!!!). It wasn't as fun as last time...but i guess that's because there was more people there and i knew less people...hm....i so want to try hk style chern k!

    I was meant to train home with the guy from earlier but he got smashed....his aunt came to pick him up ~ so i was going to train home with another friend but she ditched me for a white guy...why a white guy was at a chinese karaoke event i'll never know...but she ditched me...and then i got told i missed the last train home as trains stop early on sundays (AHHH) so...i basically got pretty scared n was chilly (a guy lent me a jacket...i rejected like 3 jackets ~), in the end my uncle had to pick me up n i slept round my grans...raaaa i made my mum worry so much >.< luckily i didn't get screamed at when i got home the next day...

    Results day ~

    I wasn't actually nervous for this...until i woke up (only had 4 hours sleep ahhh!) - i got in and most of my friends weren't there??? so i just opened mine by myself...slightly disappointed...i did better in some subjects than i thought i would but i did worse in other subjects that i thought...im especially disappointed about English...gaaaah ~ no one understood how i felt cept my bestfriend but she went home...as did most of my friends after they got their results...hmmm - i went to town with another friend instead and bumped into a few people ~ sharing results is pretty fun haha! Mum took me and sisters out for lunch to celebrate and my phone kept ringing ~ bro hung up on me after i said my results n wouldn't pick up his phone after!! RUUUUUDE!!!! had to phone his friend instead hmph.

    I had a bet going with my uncle on my gcse's from last summer...he said A* = £150, A = £100, B = £50, C = pay back £50 etc ~ boooom - he got scared when my mum told him my results haha! (i was on the phone so i couldn't tell him directly)!

    I now have a new bet going with him for A level! A = £300, A* = £400 hehe ~

    Induction Day ~

    Had my induction day for 6th form today!! I feel so much more mature wearing a white bloude instead of the icky yellow...i'm not sure why but the uniform just suddenly looks so much smarter rather than kiddy...perhaps because i'm wearing a form fitting cardigan instead of a baggy school jumper now ~ not sure! (post up a pic soon when i take one ~). None of my friends are in my form...which sucks but i have two people i can talk to in it and i made some friends with new people who came ~ so it's all cool!! My form is probably the coolest one there is - even the teachers and upper sixth said so - i do believe i have an amazin two years ahead of me! hehe ~

    enough chats ~ I've rejected two guys...perhaps i shouldn't be so picky with my guys? Maybe because it'll be my first boyfriend i want to be picky...because i'm definitely going to remember him...

  • 'cause i'm so hardcore...

    I'm flying to HK today!! flight is at 5.15pm (GMT time) and i shall land in HK at 12 (HK time) ~ just in time for some lunch. mmmmhmmm!!

    I'm going yum cha before my flight which means i have to get up early GRRR. I'm not a morning person...nope....this girl loves her sleep! Luckily, unlimited free texts mean i can text everyone before i go and even call some with my free minutes, hehe ~

    I'm sitting far away from the rest of my family, cousin and gran with my sister - maybe there'll be some leng jais on the flight next to me...ooooo....haha i have to amuse myself for the 12 hour flight, although they have movies, games and i have my phone which means i can listen to music (YES! i can't live without it, i swear!) but still...

    I ABSOLUTELY hate plane food...iono why...it just doesn't look or taste appetising...hmm...at least i can get free instant noodles, hehe ~ I've bought cards to play on the plane (i played Big 2 today with my sister and beat her 61-56 (twice, i had double her score!! haha!! i'm gooooood (definitely playin you one day Terence, don't worry ~ we'll see who's pro!))...wish i could play mahjong on the plane...aha (no i'm not a gambler, calm down now ~)

    I can't wait! so excited, doesn't help that i've been sleepin at 3-4am recently so at 2.33am right now, i'm still wide awake...gah! So many relatives (that i never knew existed) to meet and friends to meet up with!!! Wonder what my cousins are like...hmmm..........

    I'm packed mostly...just need to put last minute things into my suitcase which i still need in the morning but other than that, i've been organised...mostly!! Unlike Jason who decided that he'll empty his drawers into his suitcase a couple hours before his flight...ahahah what a joker!

    I'm sorry for my ramble of a blog but i'm EXCITED. Update you with hk when i get back! ~ (yes, this means, no blogging for 3 weeks!! wooooah!!)

  • ohhh it's my life ~

    I don't know why, but Londoners stare >.< IT'S FREAKY and scares me!! Makes me so paranoid, raaaa! I always get at least one person staring at me on the train but it was even more frequent on wednesday and thursday, even my cousin noticed (and laughed at me about it hmph!). He tried to stare back to intimidate them but like...i've tried that before, it just made it worse, gave the impression i'm interested - EEP! I just ignore them now...at least try to...it's hard since they're not even discreet...they stare directly or they holla from a car...wtf...an old pervy guy even tried to chat to me raaaa

    I've been down central (London) 4 times in 7 days...eeeeeeks - BIT TOO MUCH!! (bro it doesn't count that you go down central everyday cause you live inside London, i don't!!)

    I made my cousin play DDR with me at troc and he failed biiiiiig time and got annoyed from sweating LOL my baaaad. My sister got a blister from the drumming game?? eehhhh! We even bought some sushi for lil cous (waaaaahhh i swear my money's getting drained too fast!!)

    Stayed round my grans and played Bomberman for the first time in yeeaaaars, my cousins suicidal i swear (bomberma wise...), haha! My uncle owned my cousin, hehe ~ My other cousin was well hyper (we still think it was the Millies cookies!! High on Millies raaaa!). I could hear my sister and cousin laughing so damn early in the mornin (i woke at 5 then 7 then officially woke up at 12 (cause i'm cool like that ~ ))

    We left my Gran's to my cousin's house (we didn't eat till 4 woah...) where we messed around and played Big 2 (obviously, i won most of the time!! - shoulda played mahjong...i won so many times last time hehe) without money mind you...cause i'm a "good" girl...*coughs* We ate out with auntie at a restaurant with 2-3 course meal deals, the food was pretty decent, my desert was the best though! Apple cake (its like the pie...) with custard and vanilla ice cream mmmMmmmm ~

    ~~

    uncle, girlfriend and baby cousin came round for a bbq on thursday ~ she is so kawaii!! I prevented her some eating a book (as babies do...) and then she stared at me...started poutin...held that position for two minutes (it was so kawaii i swear!) n then burst out crying - EEEEEP!!! She was ok with me after she stopped though...luckily ~

    ~~

    I've been texting someone non-stop since we met, wonder if this is going anywhere?
