cooking skills

i was rated 6/10 for my cooking last week.
blergh.
thats because we had no chicken.
i have to use beef instead.
and what happened?
i got told off because i didnt know there was an actual way of cutting meat
did you know that?


baha. i didn't. well, mummy taught me.
she said

you must cut the meat perpendicular to the movement of the lines in the meat
like transverse waves <3
always trying to include my revision in everyday situations <3 how nerdy!!

yeah.
thats what she said.
something like it.


anyways!
my work station was super clean
unlike mummy others...


clean~


clean~


unfortunately, i couldn't get rid of that annoying rat in the kitchen. so ugly too. what rat wears glasses and smiles at cameras?

and the client who i was cooking for:





but he's gone now...
i'm kinda glad, i felt sorry i had to leave him for school all the time and had to give him bad food *like this nasi goreng X3*

anyways.


this one ^

she is like super kentut you know. the one thing i left her in charge with was the rice. which she washed, cooked... without turning the outlet on.


we were waiting for so long for the rice to cook after we realised it wasn't even cooked.
i was so pissed.
but i didn't want to show it.



CLOTHES ARE WASHED.
GONNA GO GET BITTEN BY MOSQUITOES.


i hate mosquitoes.
why do they live where we hang our clothes?!
i'll tell you how many bit me in a few...


PS;
i passed my HISTORY.
which i was super surprised with.
but im super happy.
cuz i studied.
and it paid off.
but miss pai still beat me.

BAHA

bbq a la wawa

so after helping eun hye because i am just Awesome with a capital A, we went to wawa's bbq.

where we met wawa

and aisha's wii.



being wii-wii virgins, me, illa and eun hye went all out.
like all out.



Wii!Tennis is the bomb



then we had a family meeting


ili conducted the meeting, arif was convinced all the colours would bring out the colours of our eyes, eun hye had too much to say

and illa


doesnt know why she's part of this family.

wawa's bbqs are the best.

steak is haven

the art of frying

i woke up at 10am this morning, thanks to the brilliant sunlight shining through the window and onto my now-even-more-pimple face.

i heard tok yah knocking a rhythm downstairs, so i knew he was hungry.
so what did i do?
yes...
i played the good cucu-card

even though nasi goreng is more of my speciality, we always have Nasi Lemak on a saturday.

so.


yes. that is what i did.
luckily, i didnt go into the kitchen so lost in mind, i previously recorded the recipe for mummy's nasi lemak very vaguely into my notebook.

the only thing that was successful was the rice.
the only reason i did it right was because i drew a diagram in my notebook about how its supposed to look like.
bwaha.

as for the rest.
daddy lectured me about how to fry ikan bilis, because it was soggy when it was supposed to be cripsy.
so this is what i have to do next time
>> heat the oil until very hot
>> fry ikan bilis with high temperature
i got the second part wrong, my notebook said 'low heat'.
idiot.

and then i added too much oil into the sambal.
bleurgh.

if mummy hadnt come downstairs, i would've really ruined the sambal. she started adding all these like spices and stocks and stuff bahaha.

anyways.

appart from the failure that is my breakfast.
i made the first half on my own.


i rock!

first timers of 2009

ah shimmy. I've got a bad cough and its killing me.

anywaysss, because ili gave me her old samsung that can connect to the laptop *yay* i took some pictures because i'm not in the mood to write a lot.

who i spent 2009 with;



:[
i slept on the floor as well because i was too lazy to get up and go upstairs.
i've been coughing very badly lately.
note to self: prevent coughing near tok yah at all costs

first meal of 2009; breakfast!



nasi lemak; classic. who could ask for more?


first dishes of 2009;



i really hate washing the pummle... and coblar thing. you know that thing where you grind all the onions and garlic and stuff? it's horrible. so heavy. whenever i wash it my mind plays tricks on me and i find myself dropping it in the sink.


first self-taking picture of illia;



YAY
edit; this is my new pose. except i do the same thing with both hands. hahaha you like? you wanna steal it? sorry. cannot. XP



what was i wearing on new years?; my PJs
what was i doing before new years?; drying my hair
what did you do on new years?; watch 30Rock ^__^
who was i with on new years?; Daddy who wanted mummy to come home and make teh tarik, Tok Yah who was sleeping in his room and later on Mummy who came home from the office.


Daddy was so persistent in getting his teh tarik. there wasn't even any condensed milk [and anyone who is anyone knows teh tarik is only teh tarik with the presence of condensed milk]

so. what to do?

me and mummy went to 7Eleven at 1 in the morning.
so sad.
the kids working there.
at least they have each other. i wanted to buy them firecrackers and balloons and party hats... but i couldnt find any.
at least they were alone.



anyways!
when we got back and made the teh tarik, daddy was upstairs in bed.
and mummy got sooo pissed off.
when she went upstairs.
she scolded daddy so badly that he came downstairs, drank teh tarik and watched Iron Chef with me on the AFC.

that show is pretty intense. it was about an iron chef who has to compete with a challenger for the title. they'd have to have a themed ingredient in their meals, in the episode i saw it was Pen Shell

pretty interesting.
the current Iron Chef was Chen something from China. his challenger was Nakahamatsunakamurishimishimiwakanaigomenasai from Japan [no no its not really his name] who was a seafood chef specialist.

China won.
his dishes were pretty cool.
steamed a lot of his dishes.


hmmmmm...

cookinggg

thanks to hanging around mummy in the kitchen, i've learnt 2 new recipes;
1) mee hoon goreng [lol totally mispelt, please excuse my patriotism]
2) bubur ayam [for tok yah's sake, i think he got sick of having the same nasi goreng every night X3]


i also watched a korean movie; Baby and Me. cute storyline, average acting. the best actor was the baby;
the story is about a rebellious teenage boy who's parents wanted to teach him a lesson and ran away from home only to survive on $100. To add on to the suffering, a baby with a note claiming that he is his father drops from the sky.

It so funny, the plotlines these korean movies come up with. It sounds bizarre but on screen it for some reason makes sense :]


i should be doing my ICT work now.

i didn't do any art this weekend either.
w00ps?



SONG OF THE DAY:
Abba's Thank You For the Music.
did i already say that?
well
it's worth to listen to again.
just love the lyrics <3
