randomness

YAY i am blogging again because i have finally thought of something to blog about. Soo today i went to Bob's kitchen for lunch =D had dumplings, some other dish and one of my favourites.. the taro (yam) pancake. The reason for it being my favourite is not only the brilliant taste, but the texture.. crunchy on the outside.. warm gooey chewy on the inside!

In there we were surprised to see someone that we hadn't seen for a long time. We saw the sister of the owner of Fortuna Village in China Town, which has closed down already ><.. She told us her brother has opened up a new restaurant in Nunawading. Supposedly it's famous for it's Peking Duck. I think i read that somewhere in the newspaper once. We also saw my dad's friend Peter. He's just bought a new Honda Civic. He's a nice guy.. regularly acting as a food critic for us, telling us good and bad restaurants.

After lunch we went into the neighbouring asian grocery which has reopened after a fire ripped through it. Supposedly the police have found no evidence to how the fire had started.. but i have my own opinions... At the moment, one of the other asian grocers in Kings Way called Win Sam owns about 5 shops. I suspect that they deliberatly lit fire to this grocer to try and get rid of their competition. Pretty cool theory aye xD

That grocery is my new favourite asian grocer due to the fact that they have so much imported food from Malaysia <3

KOPIKO <3
SHANDY <3 Lemonade with a hint of beer. When i was 10 in Malaysia, my cousins from Kota Kinabalu introduced me to this stuff. I was addicted straight away. Oh and im allowed to buy it because shandy in a can has a very diluted alcohol content =D

HONEY STARS! <3 one of my favourite cereals in Malaysia. Also doubles as a nice crunchy snack xD

I didnt buy this, but i found it quite funny. I think it was tomato flavoured twisties, and as you can see... FOR SALE IN MALAYSIA ONLY o_o

Today i also went swimming for the first time in over 6 months. Me and my sister went to Monash Uni to use their pool. I dont think i've been there in over 4 years and it looks the same although everything seems smaller.. until you hop in the pool. So since there were lessons being held me and my sister decided to do laps. 40 laps of the 25m pool. not bad for a return.... o_o but it's okay im not a pro swimmer, i stopped after each lap xD and also decided to walk a few... i've also realised how unfit i am.. i got tired after 8 laps and also my arms were hurting after 5.. ><

Anyway this post has already gone for too long.. and i had more to say xD so ill post it for you another time.

BLAH BLAH

HELLOOOO! i know i havent blogged in a while, so very sorry about that.

soooo.. this guy called tom loo introduced me to yam milk tea with pearls at bubble cup! It was weird but i liked it! it had a bit of a chocolatey taste to it though.. but i guess that's yam. So last weekend i went to glenny and walked into happy cup to get myself yam milk tea with pearl.... sooo i took a sip and... WTF IS THIS SHIT O_O

Sooo the day after was Wensi's party. We went to Waverley Cinema at pinewood to watch HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3! WILDCATS!! It wasnt as bad as i thought it would be... and then afterwards we went to maccas for a childrens party! brings back memories xD

So.. we were required to wear formal to her party... so that's why we're all in suits ><. We took this photo after watching the movie. Not bad is it xD

Sooo today i went to Hungy's house for his famous LAN party for the first time. So computer games included... CS, DotA, DoW and AoE2! We also played pool and table tennis in Hungy's wreck room. AND.. i beat stoof in spit! BUAHAHAHAA (i didnt cheat this time =D)

As some of us were getting a little hungry, me, Stoof and Clare went out to safeway to grab some snacks.. but instead Stoof decided she wanted to cook something to eat. So.. we bought some steak, gravy, potatoes, milk and cream and we made some pretty nice steak and mashe potatoes.. im sorry to say this.. but Clare u fail at cooking xD and also HUNGY CLEAN UR KITCHEN o_O (sooo like while searching through pots and pans.. we found many still coated in oil and one which still had quite a bit of oil still in it ><) *oh yes and stoof mashed a bit too hard and bent hungy's potato masher.... O_O*

also Jenn says hi to all of you!

That's all i have to say for now! hopefully ill post some time soon..

Tastes of Singapore? MY ASS!

Today i experienced the worst tasting Malaysian/Singaporean food in my life. So me and my family went out for lunch to Tastes of Singapore on Clayton Rd (just letting you know so that you never go there). We had been there a couple of times before and the food there was great. Little did we know that the owner had changed. Once getting there we were surprised at how little customers were sitting in the small shop. At that point we should have realised that something was wrong and we should have gone somewhere else to eat, but instead we decided to walk in to the shop in readiness for some great southeast asian food.

So some Singaporean Indian lady walked out to great us and we were thinking:
"whoa who the hell is this person."
then we thought:
"oh crap new owners."

At the counter, we took about 10 minutes to decided what to eat, but the lady didnt care because SHE HAD NO OTHER CUSTOMERS TO SERVE. So we ordered the fish head curry special, mee rebus, 2 nasi lemak and some nasi goreng. We also ordered the satay special and a cup of teh tarik ice.
The shitness of the food was incredible. I had never tasted Malaysian/Singaporean/Indian food like it. It was truely amazing how shit the food was.

1. Nasi Lemak
Bad Points
- coconut rice failure
- sambal paste was not sambal paste, instead some weird assed mixture of chilli and some sauce
Good Points
- peanuts, boiled egg and ikan bilis tasted like peanuts, boiled egg and ikan bilis...

2. Mee Rebus
Bad Points
- did not taste at all like mee rebus
- didnt look like mee rebus
- was it even mee rebus?
Good Points
- Boiled egg tasted like a boiled egg

3. Nasi Goreng
Bad Points
- not fried at all?
- not warm
- my grandma was wondering why my sister was eating it and decided to taste it herself, the disgusted look on her face was priceless. Could also be counted as a good point...
Good Points
- came with a piece of chicken that didnt taste like chicken.

4. Fish head curry
Bad Points
- infact was only fish curry
- barely any curry
- didnt taste anything like fish curry
Good Points
- it was actual fish.. not too sure though
- came with rice? woww..

5. Satay
Bad Points
- random pieces of meat stuck on a wooden skewer aka didnt look like satay
- didnt taste like satay
- didnt smell like satay
- peanut sauce failure
- worst satay i have ever tasted in my life
Good points
- none

6. Teh Tarik
Bad Points
- not enough flavour
Good points
- best thing that we had
- it kinda tasted like teh tarik!

So at the end of it we though:
"now we know why there was no one in the shop."
That was it. Overall i would give the place .5/5 stars just cos they actually gave us something to eat.
Need to find a new place with actual good Malaysian food, any suggestions?

But on a good note i saw something funny today on the way home from PEGS. We passed the Queen's School and someone took of the end of the 'n' and the sign said the Queer's School. hehehe

Farn Ling Khung could you please collect your laptop from the IT department

So.. i havent really been blogging much lately because i havent had my laptop and have been using the desktop computer in my parents room which means no privacy. This is because my laptop totally screwed up and came up with a couple of error messages.
1. Operating systems failed
2. Corrupt or missing file
Because of these 2 error messages i wasn't able to get onto my laptop. So.. i took my laptop to get it repaired by the IT department at school, the most incompetent department in the whole entire school. With this error message they proceeded just to re-image(which involves putting in a cd and wiping the harddrive clean) my laptop. Unfortunately my laptop crashed during this process so it took longer than expect... about an hour longer.
Taking the laptop home i turned it on and after about 5 seconds i got a BLUE SCREEN which automatically restarts the computer. Turning it on after that, it came up with the same two error messages. So i took the laptop back to school to get it fixed up. This time they said they would send it to the supplier to have a look over the weekend. On the monday they told me that the supplier had to replace some dodgey wires or something and they were waiting on parts so it might take a couple more days.
So now it is Thursday and they finally called me over to get my laptop back. The IT department lady told me to turn on my laptop to test it. The first thing that came up was the same error... OPERATING SYSTEMS FAILED... now my laptop will be resent to the supplier to get it checked out again and i probably wont have it back until next week.
STUPID FUCKING IT DEPARTMENT HURRY THE FUCK UP AND FIX MY FUCKING LAPTOP U LAZY FUCKING ARSEHOLE 40 YEAR OLDS THAT HAVE NO LIVES AND STILL LIVE WITH YOUR MUMS AND WONT EVER GET A GIRLFRIEND OR BOYFRIEND.
please excuse the swearing :D

hey guys... it's saturday again so that means i played tennis for school.. and in 30degree weather too ><>

So.. i got promoted from seed #3 to seed #2 =) and this time we didnt lose our doubles 6-0 we lost 6-4... not too bad. it was an evenly match game, but this time i won my singles 6-1 =D yes.. i know i like to brag a lot xD

A bit later me and my family went to Glen Waverley for lunch at Yumcha Inn. When i first walked in there was this guy in shirt, tie and pants who i think was the manager.. and there was something weird about him but i didnt know what.. so half way through eating my 2nd Siu Mai.. i realised what it was... his eyes were HUGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! i mean his pupils were like the size of a gobstopper.. and his eyes whoaaaaa.... it was so weird.. and he's asian too xD

Anyways so after that i went to Happy Cup and i went in to get my milktea and pearls... and they SOLD OUT of pearls O_O WTF?!

WOOOOO so i got FIFA09 and it is sooooooooo good.. the detail is so amazing... and the game play is better than FIFA08!

The only thing is.. when i got it, it didnt exactly look like what is shown here on the left.. it looked more like....

Yep.. it looked more like this... my good friend Jacky Sing a.k.a the biggest scammer in the world, downloaded it for all of us =D

WAYNE ROOOOOOOOOOOOONEY!!!

Anyways.. that's all i got to say so cyaz!

tennis =D

woot tennis season has started again in the agsv! except the bad thing is i dont get to sleep in on saturdays =( so.. today i had interschool tennis against Yarra Valley. We play 2 matches, 1 singles and 1 doubles and to decide the match we only play 1 set...

So.. i drove to school and I expected to play seed 7/8 cos i was supposed to play with Bryan who had never played before.. but instead they moved me to seed 3 and i partnered with this year 10 guy.. who is... pretty crap xD soooooo.. we lost the doubles 6-0 ><

So.. i played my singles match after that and in the first game i got to 40-0! and then i lost.. the first game... o-o but that was fine cos i won the next 5 games... then dropped a game which i should have won.. and then finished the match off 6-2! =D

pretty boring update aye...

House Drama!

ROBBED OF 5th place... nah probably deserved our 6th placing... stupid ben richardson that frigging dumbarse year 9 kid didnt turn up to our bloody house drama competition of snow white and the 7 dwarves... so instead we have 6 dwarves instead of 7.. o_O as well us having make last minute changes to the script.

anyway... after watching Clifford house do so shit yesterday in their house play and the fact that no likes ben sutu (who organised Clifford house play and dramatically overacted everything, for example running around the stage with his hands flapping around making a stupid sound and that frigging annoying stupid shit accent. buahahaha everyone made sarcastic laughs at him when ever he came out)... we decided to mock them at the start of our play. Almost half their play was 4 instrumental players wearing masks PRETENDING to play the violins, cello and violas with music playing through the speakers... so we decided one of us should walk out at the start of our play with a violin, play a bad note and then say "hmm maybe this wasnt such a bad idea". Supposedly the judges were laughing their heads off and sutu was fuming :)

Anyways here are a few pics of us backstage before goin out on stage:

here we have Chris Duong who played as a rabbit, a deer, the magic mirror and also decided to mock sutu at the start of the play. scary aye... Will got a little too carried away with the lipstick so he eneded up looking like the Joker.. so we decided to add in "WHY SO SERIOUS?!?!"

And down there we have Cale Woods playing Snow White.

And i do believe Ms Wood said "OMG Cale is so hot" O_O oh u dont get to see the pink dress he is wearing...

That's all i have to say.. so bye.. time to start my hw. ><

weekend!

hello all!

sorry for the lack of updating... just been a busy first week of school...

a week of school that included lots of house drama rehersals, cross country, tennis training in the morning and lots of hw and school... oh and not to forget camberwell's open day.

today has been quite an awesome day.. sleeping in, then having roti canai for lunch =D =D =D and then house drama rehersals going alright... and then i drove home from school for the first time ever. it was scary and yes i did speed a little on the freeway.. but i think i did alright...

So for Schofield house drama, we are doing Snow White and the 7 Dwarves. I am playing Bashful, one of the dwarves.. even though i act more dopey than i do bashful.

This is a very blurry pictures of Will Cranwell.. the script writer and director and star actor of our house.

He plays the evil queen in the play...

i would have had a video of the first scene... but my phone didnt save it =(

so i had an awesome weekend... hope u did too!
