i want to be cossed



Dining facilities in Paris are usually not that cheap. To save some money in food and drinks, you can drink tap water: ordering bottled water in restaurants is quite expensive.

see??

so you dont have to bulge your eyes when i said i drink tap water when i was in paris

-________-


anyway!

im excited!!!! that i could taste INDONESIA KUIH LAPIS, and KAYA soon!!!! and himheang tambun biscuits! and gunung rapat biscuits! and! and! pork floss lotus paste pastry! omg!! yeah im more excited than this than the delivery boy!

ilovePeas



where do i start?

how should i start?

i have so many things on my mind

here goes my rambles...

im in tight spot. all these while i thought that i WILL be going to KK. to be posted to *with fingers crossed* Elizabeth.

yeah. stop rolling your eyes. my love for kk. ??? wth. i havent been there to be honest. haha :p lawak. yeah, but i dont know. i thought, and i hope that i would be smitten by the dog-shaped state :p

proly during the weekends, i could sneak over to Philippines or Indonesia. *nods*

what else could i do there? besides island hopping. and scuba diving.

i did not enjoy myself thoroughly on my previous dives. cause i was down with a flu hence it affected my ear and the entire balancing thingy, whatever u call it.

well, my point is? at this very minute, im doubting if i would yearn to go back to the peninsular after im bored with kk?
hee...i better not bak kata pepatah, hangat hangat tahi ayam.

decisions decisions~

right.

next,
dad's coming. ive complained before, that he is not adventurous, when it comes to food. really. and that can be a HUGE problem. a big issue which i will definitely need to look into and be prepared of.

he will be under my care, entirely. mom wont be around. boo. hence im watching his menu. his diet. hiakhiak.
which is not a bad thing i suppose. cause i could then feed him with lotsa oats. 

no1, cheap!
no2, healthy! lower cholesterol
no3, good for his hypertension
no4, easy to prepare!
no5, can make him lose weight!
no6, i can then use the money to boost the economy!

whee!!

alright!

okies. next

im been itching to rave about....housemates.
if you remember my previous blog, i have a category for them, labelled "housemates".

im glad. and i feel blessed. that im very fortunate to have kind and really nice , sorry for the cliche, housemates.


At charcoal. buffet

previous housemates, benga and weeshen. they were really sweet guys.

current housemates, miss tam, and two miss lees'. they are truly pleasant.

i would be a speck of dust if it weren't for their existence in this chapter of my life. i do not know how to thank them.

no one has never seen me cry that much in this short 12 months.

i still remember how i rejected JJ's offer to walk me to Tesco last year.

without them, i will not have the opportunity to go to Carbisdale castle, as well as Belgium and Holland.

they have helped me a great deal in my academics. if i graduate this coming june, they have undeniably contributed in the success of the event. (also a few other people, whom i will acknowledge in time to come)

miss lee, who is very rational, and whom ive fallen in love with and insanely desires to be her sister-in-law. ermm, i mean i would like to greet her as 'tai sou' *laughs*

im not joking!!!!

i even told mom about it! in desperation, i honestly wish to be able to introduce her to my superbro.

lean. lanky. 'cincai' person. perfect hight. blablayadayada

i know they will be perfect for one another. dont ask me how i know. i just know.

:(
but....
sigh....

bro's not available.

SIENNNNN!!!!!

anyway, this post is not how i expected it to be. i thought i would write more. im a verbose person if u havent already known.

anyway, bck to housemates.

im so going to miss them. after travelling together,  im certain they liked me more than i thought they did! *nyiahnyiah* cause they extend their invitation to me to travel with them again! *laughs*
eheee...
neh...cause im very selfish when it comes to water supple:p and a few other things.
my principles and what not
-____-
oh well....that's cause they have high tolerance level *grin*

i do not mind staying for another year with such housemates. sigh.

cant believe everything is coming to an end. when things are really blossoming.

going to miss her perpetual laughter. according to Sh, she has low humour-threshold. she can laugh at tiny minute matter which we dont find it amusing. hence we ended up laughing at her.

sh's a monk. ahahahah. kidding :p shez very disciplined. she can take charge and lead. meticulous planner. shocking to me. i never knew she had these qualities. she is also very ' suipien' (macam abang saya) ;)

they have etched immortal presence in my memoirs. albeit the saltiness of my saga in james blyth court, they have helped to balance it with some honey.

i will also be mindful of tai kar che's words of wisdom. also, without her, i could not imagine the havoc and the sanitary aspect of our unit. ehee..

anyway, i hope i will be forgiven for all my misdeeds and misbehaves and my notorious, endless interrogations-questions, which can be annoying, i know. :(

thousand apology.
ampun maaf. beribu ribu ampun.

.........

i should be able to write better than this. when i was studying, when my mind roves, i remembered the story line was a hell lot better than this.

haih... what a dismay.

kays...
it's time to go.

2 more papers to go. before i mature into a beautiful tax-payer.




ps: what if i miss amansuria's charsiew when im in the 'land below the wind'? this is rather nerve-wrecking. an unnecessary one. -__________-



pss: i looked effingly!!! SPHERICAL!!! bah!!!

uber mom


i know...i know everyone is in the same position.

im worried. im nervous. im scared. im everything. so is everyone.

mom suggested that i can intentionally fail a few subjects, then i can retain and stay on for a year and travel.
she said this a few months back. i laughed over her idea and told her it was silly. back then i thought it was.

but as the exam is looming, i thought otherwise. it could happen y'know. no joke.

then suddenly her words flooded and haunt me now. i got suspicious over her suggestion. my brain shifted to analytical mood. i tried to analyze what she said. was there a tone of sacarsm?, i pondered. trying very hard to recall that phone call.

in addition, she said it over a few occasions, not just once.

i think she meant it.

how cool a mom she is.

so cool to encourage her daughter to fail.

so cool to ask me to go shopping to relax. but she will sometimes add that i do not necessarily have to buy. which means, i can only window shop :)

thanks mom

anyway, this morning, was the first time in my life, i de-gut a FISH! horribly disgusting.

initially, i used my bare hands and lifted the gills. previous night, i remembered housemate 2, miss lee, said that she did it before. so i thought it would not be that bad.

unfortunately, i couldnt do it. how? the heck of it, just cook the fish with the intestines intact?
hmmm...i stood in the kitchen and pondered.

in the end, i slipped on my working gloves (gloves which i used when cleaning the house) and do the work.

almost ripping off the gills, i poked my fingers into the stomach, and shut my eyes, hold my breath, pull out everything pull-able.

phew

job done

my curry fish was a success.

and u know people? ive almost forgotten of the taste of a fish. sigh.

and the gut is actually...only....the little front part. i tried to stick my entire finger into the fish, DEEP into it. but failed. then it struck me, that, "ohhhh, they are actually flesh la..stupid" (and u know how long my fingers are) bummer.
almost forgotten to descale as well. thanks to shinhun :)

still remember my gloves? i placed them on the bin in the toilet. after an hour or so, u thought u were in a fish market as u enter the loo! garrhhh. ended up throwing one side of the glove. :S

still need the other unpaired glove to work on the remaining fish-es in the freezer.

i finished my curry fish paste. im calling home to order fish curry paste via air delivery. hah!


ps: btw, the fish had been hibernating in my freezer for months. since 2008. *smirks* housemate 4, miss tam had been reminding me a couple of times about my forlorn fish. hee. finally. i did it.

the end

Enee-meeni-meeni-myni-mo!

 i have 3 options :


A) withhold final exam this May and retain for a year. sit for the final exam next year

B) rewind 6 months and vow to study diligently, consistently, religiously. i will. i swear i will. bertaubat

C) heck with it. float along and just take the exam and make babies in greece and dont care about the results thereafter!


mcq. which is the correct best answer?
