experimental cooking

once again, i did experimental cooking tonight for dinner
roasted honey pork belly
it took a long time to cook because i did not know how to do cooking with the oven.
nevertheless, after 2 hours of experimenting, i managed to fix a decent dinner for myself.

(photo was removed because aggie does not know how to appreciate my cooking :( )

the dish did not turn out as expected.
the smell was queer, but it tasted absolutely fantastic...well not too bad :P

*by the way, my flatmates tasted it and commented that it was nice :)

messed up again

this is the second time i am feeling very upset and disappointed with my performance ever since i came over
BUt, i think i really screwed up this time. BIG TIME

the feeling of fear and dread is overwhelming. my heart is in my STOMach, a sock in my mouth
yeap, that's right. i dunno what to say. i am flabbergasted.

procrastination will get me no where. this i know since primary school....but to no avail
i am really scared now.

i write no literary statements and no poetic lines. but i'm sure my expressions in this blog can tell you that i'm real messed up now.

cold day again

it's another cold day today
it has been raining for the whole afternoon and you could see everyone running in the rain to get to their next class.

i made a discovery today. I billed a total of $8 today for 9mins worth of call to a landline. I seriously think that the telephone calls here are very expensive. Even a standard call at a public booth starts with 50 cents. Am I being too price-conscious?

once again, i did experimental cooking. I made grilled chicken. It did not turn out the way i expected it to be. Nevertheless, it was still yummy and delicious.

in chains and rankle

lily allen

frequent rides in my flatmates' car
i was introduced to lily allen
her voice is unique, lazy yet refreshing
the songs are "one of the kind"

i really enjoy listening to her music
it's entertaining, especially the lyrics

here's one:
Knock 'Em Out

Alright so this is a song about anyone,
it could be anyone.
You're just doing your own thing
and some one comes out the blue,
They're like, "Alright"
He's saying,
"Yeah can I take your digits?"
And you're like,
"no not in a million years,
you're nasty please leave me alone."

Cut to the pub on a lads night out,
Man at the bar cos it was his shout,
Clocks this bird and she looks ok,
Caught him looking and she walks his way,
"alright darlin, you gonna buy us a drink then?"
"err no, but I was thinking of buying one for your friend..."

She's got no taste hand on his waste,
tries to pull away but her lips on his face,
"if you insist I'll have a white wine spritzer"
"sorry love, but you ain't a pretty picture."

Chorus
Can't knock em out, can't walk away,
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say,
Just get out my face, just leave me alone,
And no you cant have me number,
"why?"
Because I've lost my phone.

Oh yeah, actually yeah I'm pregnant, having a baby in like 6 months so no,and yeah, yeah...

"I recognise this guy..."
That's what she's thinking,
As he comes over her heart starts sinking,
She's like,"oh here we go.."
It's a routine check that she already knows,
she's thinking they're all the same.

"yeah you alright baby? You look alright still, yeah what's your name?"
She looks in her bag, takes out a fag,
tries to get away from the guy on a blag, can't find a light,
"use mine"
"you see the thing is I really don't have the time."

Chorus
Go away now, let me go,
Are you stupid?
Or just a little slow?
Go away now I've made myself clear,
Nah it's not gonna happen,Not in a a million years,

Chorus x2
nah I've gotta go cos my house is on fire,

I've got herpes, err no I've got syphilis...

typical day

to me and anyone interested to know :P

today was a usual typical day in uni. i had class at 8am so i had to brave the cold on my way to class. it was so chilly and my hands were practically frozen.

Have i mentioned that the clouds in perth look very similar to the one in The Simpsons?
yeap, patchy clouds floating in the midst of the very vast blue blue sky.

my carelessness and foolishness has caused me something precious. I spoilt my favourite watch :( i am so going to nurse my sad sad hand now. it's going to miss a friend.

are you missing a friend as well?

happy day

this is amazing

after i updated my zonealarm, i am able to blog :)

i am so happy

anyway, today was geraldine's 20th birthday.
happy birthday girl :P
we had a nice dinner and had great fun singing karaoke.

but still... a psychology assignment due soon
nevertheless, it's been a happy day today :)
