快乐与痛苦是连体婴,背对背,谁也少不了谁,是名副其实的‘痛快’i love this quote. no idea.. im weird i guess (: but who's normal anyway.. we all are living in a quirky world anyway ((:
back to spore. hmm, cant describe the feelings just yet. i wanted to go back indo in march, waiting for my dear niece to be born (: cant wait!! but on the other hand.. how am i supposed to work if i keep asking and taking leave?? furthermore, my mom said this time i have to pay for my own transport fee and eating etc. she will only be paying for my basic accomodation fee to my aunt :/ im poor~~ jobless~~ zzz
hmm, bought a book on dieting according to your blood group. somehow i feel happy they said to try not to eat fish, crabs, lobster, prawns, octopus, sotong etc.. haha.. since i dont even like them xD then, also not to eat too much meat. my meals supposed be vegetable based somehow like vegetarian xD and the best is choco is fine~ hohoho.. the bad thing.. ice cream, milk is no no.. zzz.. and honeydew.. and some other nice food that i actually likes.. zzz...

lotsa things happening..
it's exactly 2 weeks since i last posted.. seriously alot of things has happened.. let's see. the day before chinese new year, or rather, the week following chinese new year, all of us were pretty busy preparing.. we made pineapple tarts, biscuits which are supposed to be cheese sticks only we ran out of cheese and they ended up bwing sweet.. lol.. then of course, our uncle from HK came ((: on 22 jan to be exact. he brought alot alot of stuff with him too.. most importantly.. chocolates!! haha.. it was pretty late when he reached.. but still.. me and Ling sao were too tempted by the chocs.. we shared a couple xD
The day before Chinese New Year, my eldest cousin came back from Kalimantan where he was working.. i guess his family must be really happy.. it is after all supposed to be a family reunion dinner ((: his two children were so happy.. i guess everyone would.. especially if you are only 9 and 6 i think respectively and not seen dad for months.. ah well.. the dinner was superb!! 8 course meal plus dessert.. my second cousin-in-law Ling sao the one cooking.. first is the corn crab meat soup.. though we were using chicken meat xD which abit look like those hotels' serving ((: then duck and roasted meat (bought them :p) oh yea, qing jia from my aunt side also gave us prawns.. they were HUGE.. cost like $10++ each.. and there were 8.. woah. oh yea, steamed fish.. chun juan.. i think i gained like 5kg that night.. zzz.. lol
then, the day itself xD oh man.. 10 years since i last spend CNY here.. it was pretty fun ((: i wore a blue dress which i bought together with my cousin Jo. haha.. we promised to wear them to CNY.. the thing is by wearing blue she hoped that the hong bao will be full og blue notes xD couse if its pink.. two possibility. 10000 or 100 000. so just in case. lol.. blue: 50 000 xD
we went to 2 houses.. one is my mom's cousin's house and the other also a relative.. but yea she's already a grandma.. so the bei fen kinda high though d: oh yea, there we ate alot too.. zzz.. the spring rolls.. i think Wi ate like 4 rolls on his own? haha.. bro too.. i guess her cooking is really too good for us to stop eating xD
At night, my mom's cousin family came to visit us ((: then alot of those people from the office.. it was pretty noisy considering they came at around 9pm.. but really very fun ((: you can really feel the festive season though the best thing is, unlike Spore, here, the shops not all close. so i can still choose to walk and shop around ((: and Baskin Robins having this sale 50% off for ice cream quart? i think.. or bigger.. cant remember xD
27 jan in the morning, my aunt suddenly came up to my mom's room and told her there's something wrong with my uncle from HK, it seems like he suffered a mild stroke at night. it was raining pretty hard too that morning. everyone was pretty tense, my cousin supported him while his wife and mom tried pricking his fingers and toes with needle to let out some blood and decrease the pressure.. but it seems like the skin is too thick.. but luckily he can still feel the pain.. when the chauffeur came, both he and my cousin carried my uncle to the car and my mom went along to the hospital.
I cant help but feel alittle relieve that at least even if that happened, it happened when there's alot of us here to help, what if it was while he was at HK, living alone there?
so yea, he still have to stay at the hospital, sometimes my mom or uncle or cousin will go there and do shift to stay with him and help him move around. at least he's not alone ((: and oh yea, that 27 jan night, my uncle house were having this company dinner sort of. pretty big event of the year i guess.. it was fun, and the food was nice too. the funny thing was my uncle at the hospital, felt like eating perkedel (the potato thing ) so Ling sao, me, aunt and chauffeur went around looking, the first shop ran out, the shop next door closed. we went to a third one, also no more. then Ling sao said should have insisted and say a pregnant lady like her feels like eating it xD
so the fourth shop, the chauffeur who went to get them, used that excuse. they only had 3 left. and we were buying 3. he was like saying, please help, its for a pregnant woman. and he got it. omg.
oh yea, yesterday i went with Ling sao to Mang Du her working place. bought a new wallet.hohoho. and when we came back, after dinner, she taught me how to drive. it was SCARY.. she taught well.. i can now at least make the car move. albeit not so smoothly.. the changing of gear from 1 to 2 also not very smooth, at least i can brake. lol that's important before i crash those expensive looking cars xD oh at least i can totally brake smoothly.. haha.. but.. still haven't got the hang of the steering wheel. ah well.. maybe later?
oh went to visit uncle just now.. since i will be going away to Spore soon.. tomo. sobz. somehow, dont really feel happy going there. but sometimes also feel bored? sigh. ah well.. time to look for jobs? zzz

sleepover
Sleepover at my cousin's house.. again.. well.. she's now downstairs having her piano lesson.. so, here i am coped in her room, using her laptop. lol. i gues i will take a bath later before starting on helping with her math revision i guess..
hmmm.. my aunt bought j.co doughnuts for us yumm. especially those choco locco lol!! choc on the inside and outside. bliss. hmm.. actually nothing much happened today.. as per usual.. went to the market though with my aunt. bought ALOT stuff.. which were pretty heavy. well it has been raining HARD for the past 2 or 3 days.. our house pretty much ran out of food. so there's no choice..
but, anyway.. i hoped to be able to go to Pluit Junction tomorrow.. i want to go online and maybe finish up with my applications? well.. im gonna apply to Monash i guess, Sydney, UNSW and maybe uni of HK i guess. doesnt hurt to try more. though it's certainly troublesome. i mean for a lazy person like me.. zzz... the thought of having to do so much stuff.. brrr..
hmm.. i wanted put more photos.. but, i dont really know how to use this laptop.. well.. the last blog skin doesnt really work well i guess. ive no idea how come i cant go to the entries etc.. this one.. a bit too pink for my liking. but, im pretty lazy to change again. so, bear with it. til one day i decided to change again. LOL
hmm.. nothing much i guess. the last post, those cars were pretty cool right xD i took them as i walked to the mini mart.. they belong to my neighbour lol! actually i wanted to take the pic of his antique white limo.. but it was being washed on that day. pity.

egg tarts
staying at home the whole day makes me pretty tired.. sometimes, i cant bear the thought of going back to s'pore, awaiting for results.. the thought terrify me. i fear the possibility of screwing up my A's. but at the same time, there's this contradicting feeling of don't want to come back indo because i feel lonely? bored.. maybe alittle of both.
my mom has to go to work, so does my cousin and his wife. of course i can come visit either place if i want.. i can go my cousin-in-law's shop and shopped around the place.. there's alot of stuff there seriously.. and pretty cheap too xD from clothes, furnitures, DVDs, beads etc.. even food i guess.. but.. i cant bargain lol. so, its more advantageous if i came with either my mom or wait for my cousin-in-law to finish her work. though seriously she can go if she wants to, just she is pretty busy. i wont feel good if she leave her work because of me. zzz.
or if i came to my mom's office.. here all the people pretty much knows me, so they don't really mind me hanging around here too anyway, using the internet or such (the people are marketing people, not in the office much anyway =p) but.. sometimes it gets pretty boring. haha
oh yea, made egg tarts yesterday.. it was TIRING seriously.. for one, i keep going back and forth between my aunt's and our kitchen. ours is clean kitchen. hers is dirty kitchen. so, washing, cooking all done in her kitchen. the actual baking, mixing etc was done in ours.. plus.. doing it alone is pretty hard work. we ran out of castor sugar so i walked to the nearest mini mart.. not too far luckily.. and also eggs..
the sieving, cooking.. mixing really took alot of time.. i think i was in there standing going next door etc for 3 plus hours. but, at least the egg tarts turned out okay ((: and im really grateful that my bro helped me too with the sieving. haha.. though seriously.. he is pretty irritating.. any food given to him, he'll have those sarcastic comments, about what coming home from tuition if no one having diarrhoea then he'll try the tarts, looks slimy, like cake plus the toufu egg thing etc. seriously.. well usually im ignoring his comments. cause he's all talk and no action. he wont be able to make them himself anyway..
and further more.. even if you brought him to some upper class restaurant to eat good food, those that cost like hell.. he'll first say delicious.. BUT.. not enough salt.. too sweet, too salty.. lack pepper etc. he's VERY demanding in his food. and i mean DEMANDING. of course he himself will say im just being honest and his comments are good etc. but, when you heard that for years.. sooner or later you get pretty sick of it. i was telling him that day, if he said that one more time, there'll be a day people wont want to treat him to eat anymore. its just plain frustrating. and his ego.. seriosly HUGE. zzz...
well anyway, my cousin-in-law said the egg tarts turned out fine. so im glad ((: my maid said it was okay too lol.. my mom.. she damn pro. she likes the tart so she picked the tart and leave the egg in the middle. it looks pretty disgusting after she's done with it -.- but that's her. kinda used to it. haha..
and, the most ZZZ thing.. i forgot which is the recepie for the swiss roll cake.. zzz and it was nice too.. though really used alot of eggs too. haha. lately i think there's been alot of cake in the house. my cousin bought 2 rolls the other day, and then his friend's baby first month old cake.. then bread? oatmeal cake that my mom brought.. im kinda sick of cakes lol..
hmmm.. g2g.. going to the newly opened mall.. haha sayonara ((:
