HILLARIOUS!! so, back to my story.. this reminds me of rosey and ezu :) we had a blast on the last nite i was in malaysia.. i know it didnt turn out EXACTLY how i wanted it.. but it was good enuff.. it was fantastic infact. and just the effort ezu made to stay back :), its priceless. i love u babes!!

glorious food!
instead i did poached pears with ice cream :)
yes.. its yummy.. its basically the easiest dessert in the whole wide world..
just take pears. i mean.. conference pears would b lovely..
skin em, and cut them into two.
then cut the middle part, u know.. where the seeds r.
soak it in red wine.. any red wine will do.. for none alcoholics, grape juice!! M&S red grape juice is seriously juicy :)
and then just add cinnamon stick.
put it aside for like.. 10 15 minutes, to let it soak all the juices and spice. i added pepper, god knoes y, but i did.to give it a lil bit of an edge
then, put the mixture on the stove, let it simmer gently.
make sure all parts of the pears is covered, turn em every 10 minutes to let it 'cook' evenly.
after about 10 20 minutes, @ when the pears r soft, take em down
reduce the sauce (add sugar)
then, SERVE!!!
basically its just, cut, marinade, cook, serve!! how quick can u do that. i improvised the ROUX recipe to get this.. i mean.. all the fancy pansy chefs use million dollars worth of wine and spices, heck, y do that when u can do it all under 2 quid? :)
heres a picture of the so called masterpiece. taken before amma dig into it. mind u she tooookkk ALLLL of the sauce (greedy piggy).i dunno, summat about fruit juice with another fruit and vanilla ice cream that cheers her up :) well.. cheers ALL of us up heh?
please ignore the magazine underneath the dish :) btw, that duck-ky looking man printed on is actually a women hahahahahahaha..
anyway, on a lighter note, SKINS is brilliant. i know it was over More4 earlier this year but i couldn't watch it often coz i was busy with college and stuff. now that is on channel 4, and channel 4+1, ive been addicted to it. iam telling u, its brilliant, well.. its written (@ produced@ directed iam not sure) by the same person who did shameless. MAGIC!! :) its shameless, but with kids.
it revolves around the lives of a group of friends in bristol.members of the groups are
- tony (the groups popular guy) the actor who plays tony is nicholas hoult. u know.. the kid who acted in the movie about a boy with hugh grant, yep, he's a grown up now
- Sid (the virgin of the group) its funny how everyone in the group is tryin to help him lose his virginity hahahahahahah.. its hilarious
- michelle (tonys gf.) she is tony's gf, but Sid is like.. inlove with her basically..
- cassie anorexic and suicidal chix who is inlove with sid (see where this is alll going?)
- chris party loving guy, who is inlove with his teacher.. hahahahaha.. i like this guy. he is funny.. just the way he acts, his manners.. tickles the funny bone
- maxxie the gay one in the group. Loves to tap dance, and is tryin to encourage the boys in the group to learn about his way of life..
- Jal she is the... sensible one i guess.. musically talented..
- anwar a muslim boy who is in a dilemma..he knoes that his lifestyle and faith do not mix well.. but he tries too.. one of the episode shows him praying after a nite of partyin. he was prayin at the backgarden, then ran when the owner of the house came in.. hahahahaha.. its all a lit bit crazy...
i mean.. its entertainment.. every episode focus on one person.but the others still come into the picture.. thats how u start to learn about em individually.. its funny as hell.. and it makes me itch for shameless to be baaccckkk!!
shameless.. now, that is a classic!!
iam off to bed now i guess.. its gonna b 1am, cant sleep, but got to.. iam off to work at the crack of dawn . aaaahhhh..adult life.. how wonderful.. NOT :)
iam embracing it.. iam..TOTALLY.. sigh

2 days off from work what should i do? i think i should start cooking allll the recipe that ive been collecting.. all those fancy michelin star food. heck, i might just be the next nigella lawson, welll..without all the spoon licking prolly.. iam gonna try chocolate mousse. yeah yeah yeaaaahhh.. i know there r some of u who r like.. heh? chocolate mousse? its easy as pea. well..i hate pea and i havent tried doing chocolate mousse by myself. its simple i know.. but to actually melt the bloody chocolate, i dont have the will to do it..besides.. i have what cooks call 'chocolate paranoia'. no, dont get me wrong.. i LOVE chocolate, i eat breath drink chocolate, but to cook it.. i just dont have the guts.. prolly coz i rememba when i was young, i burnt a pot of chocolate.. haahhahahaha..
iam porlly doin the cooking tonite.. so.. yeah.. iam still abit lazy.. iam tryin to persuade amma to cook the food and i'll just do the dessert.. :) sounds yummmy..
owh wait!!! but at 6.40 today, we have national quiz test.. its like.. a quiz show testing the british nation!! and we r ready with our pen and paper to answer the questions. to see how well we do.. r we the brilliant scientist type, mediocre middle managers.. and just the bloody moron that burns the carrot and broccoli.. hahahahahahhahaha.. wellll then, iam off to do the desserts.. shall post the successful attempt :)
righty o,
iam off,
just wish i could just click my fingers and its all done..
owh what a wonderful world it would b :)

Feeling blue.. *sniff sniff*
It was freaking windy yesterday. i thought we had hurricane dean at one point. then i thought, we woulda been blown away if a hurricane came our way. Just saw the news and it says that about 3000 british tourist are stranded in cancun, and have no choice but to wait till the hurricane is over. Bless em, they flew away from england to get good weather, but instead, they got a hurricane. Off to blackpool then heh?
i love this place tho, i do :)
Paivi's been keeping in touch. we r plannin a holliday. cross fingers it happens. pls pls plssss pretty pls.
ive been youtube-ing all the old videos.. u know, damien rice, coldplay, third eye blind, train.. all em hits song in the year 2000 @ so.. just i dunno.. tryin to recapture old times. Ive been thinkin about my dad lately. If he was alive, would we move here? doubt it. i dont know actually.. coz i dont know him, per say. i just know him as DAD. strange isnt it. i knew he woulda said yes if i asked for money @ to go off for holliday, but if i asked, iam off to uni in.. i dunno.. the states @ england.. what he woulda said? yes? no? the whole family is going? AND this brings me to my brothers.. i love them i do. i wish we're still kids. when i was practically hangin around em 24/7. yes, i was a tomboy. so much so that when alan was accepted in uni, i cried to sleep. i mean, that what my mum said. i dunno, cant rememba. and i miss apiq and ecuan.i just want them to be happy, and i know they are :) i just miss the old times i guess. i miss being a kid.i didnt have the whole exprience. WHAT AM I GOING ON ABOUT!!! i cant be freaking emo-ing at midnite.

Sunday Mornings!~
A day when u wake up, know its gonna be a totalllllyyyyy lazy and bumming day. I had great sundays when i was on holliday in msia. Somehow, I would always end up in apiggy's house, and we sould jsut back to back dvd and pork on junk food :) HEAVEN!! This reminds me: DISTURBIA is a must watch. I dunno why.. i mean.. its a good thriller plus comedy plus eye candy plus just good i guees.. it ticked all my boxes. I would tell u the synopsis, but iam too lazy to type : sunday morning syndrome u see. :)
I love being on holliday. Just the feeling of holliday.. Just knowing that u dont have any responsibilities. No work to worry about.. but this time around i had the money issue to worry, THAT SUCKS!!!!! NOW i know how it is when melin amy n ezu says.. cant go la, no money. THat means, if i go, i wont eat for 2 weeks. fair enuff.. we nee food. but we can always eat em rotiboy buns!! which was the highlight of our PD trip!! hahahahahahahahah.. I started thinkin about raya next year. Have no idea why. WAIT, its coz iam goin back for raya next yr. spending raya 2 times in a row in a foreign country, not very nice i tell u.Which reminds me, iam craving for rendang. Rendand and them lemang. Fresh lemang, bought in the afternoon by the roadside in KAmpung Jawa.Cut open by 7pm, ready to be consumed. Raya in our house: FOOD!! all types of food!! amm will practically cook most of it. Then we would buy the staples like ketupat, lemang and em square lemang things. Then k.farrah will cook and bring over her arabic food. AND that HUGGGEEEEEEEEEEEE roasted lamb leg!! wooohhhooooo.. i miss raya. :)This year would be different. We r celebrating it here, and hopefully, my abangs will make it here!! :)
OWh, I just bought 2 garden gnomes. :) NAmes: Bi and Dot :) . Next in our shopping list, a house for bi and dot. we saw one in woolworths. BUt the colour was off.

With the wind out there,
Welcome all, i come in peace!~
so, since everyone on earth i know somehow has the time do their blogs, i figure, why not. Its not that i have anythin better to do.. i mean, yes, studies and work is something usefull, but i do that most of the day, why not wind down and ramble on and on and on anddddd onnnnnnnnn in my blog. u know, free counselling session. saves me loads of money. I aint giving it to a therapist just so i can tell em, 'iam angry with the worllldddddd!, now prescribe me with valium' .
Wow, didnt know that, but iam prolly stressed up thinkin about work and studies. bleerrrggghhhh..
so yes, welcome all to the world of randomness, ask dave, he knoes how random i can get. rite? :)
so, pray that i have enough energy to updatet this atleast once a week :)
take care all, see u later!~
