something from awhile back
something from awhile back
i did a flight to frankfurt a while back and was hoooked onto the pizzas there. so i came back and attempted. As you can see it's not fantastic. But but... it's in the works... the recipe tat is.
So i made myself feel better by making something i do best... one of my favourite dessert ... bb pudding!

OK... i find changing the bedsheets one of the most tedious things to do. I actually prefer scrubbing my stove top and re-arrange my kitchen things than to change em blardy sheets and comforter. The only comfort i have now is that at least i have clean sheets to sleep on later.

CNY has
passed thank goodness. I hate CNY songs. I wonder who actually writes them. Is it a multimillion dollar industry to irritate people?I got back from Vancouver
few weeks back and it was my first attem
pt snowboarding.
Adrian, Khim and myself had hired a private instructor for an hour and was glad we did. I know understand how some people can get addicted to snowboarding.

welcome 2008
i'm still confused.. am i 26 or 27 yrs old?
help me out here. my birthday is on the 31 dec 1981. So which technically means.. that i turn 26 on the 31st dec. but 2008 will be my 27th year of existence, so if people ask me how old i am.. should i reply 26 or 27? i'd still rather be 25 in other time tho. haha..
I had a nice quiet birthday this year.. or should i say it's one of those times where i didn't really felt like planning for anything. But surprise surprise. My friends were all there and jenn got me a nice beef pie for the 'cake'. Which got smashed up on the floor 5 secs after i cut it and i ended up eating some of it off the floor.
So happy new year to all of yous, and hope it'll be a better one ya.
OH OH.. i finally got m macbook pro.. beauty. it's my cousins and it's one yr old. still in great minty condition and a steal for the price he gave it to me for.
was in seoul and looked like i had a black eye...

i am in melbourne and my phone is dead.
I cant switch it on and there's nothing i can do about it here. Just got to wait till i get home to the charger.
Some people asked me what do i like about christmas. I asked them if i could list down things which i Dislike about christmas instead. There's nothing nice about it, and there aint much i like about it. What's it with people shopping and getting things for people just because it was 'decreed' to be the 'season of giving'? i mean.. if i constantly thruout the year get things and prezzies for people, must i still make an effort to purposely look for something during christmas. Dont get me wrong, i like receiving and giving, but shouldnt we do it constantly? - which makes more meaning to the giving than to 'force' ourselves to 'just get something lah'. Oh well. I'm rattling coz i dont have a phone.
Then i said i dont like Christmas jingles... and then someone said to me..' isnt Chinese New Year ones worse?' - true true.
Birday is tomolo and i still dont have any concrete plans to 'celebrate' the aging of my old self. I given up planning already coz i really dun feel like planning for it. So maybe i'll end up watching teevee than sleep. Or play mahjong till the morning.
I don;t like cakes... esp those that people buy from shops. I'm not a cake person. I'm a pie/tart person or pudding. Cake feels so.... cakey. So everytime there's a cake during birthday it's usually not meant for eating. It's meant for throwing around.
I think i should go for a run. i ate a big box of fries with italian cheese dressing yesterday just before i fell asleep. Melbourne has this crazy "Lord of the Fries" place near the hotel - which i make an effort to visit everytime i'm here. So i feel full of potatoes inside me now. Oh and guess what... i forgot to bring my wallet. I manage to dig a US$20 note from my bag yesterday so hopefully that'll be enuff. If not i found another 10Euros in another part of my bag too.
It's a long post.
Sometimes i dunno wat i've done wrong. I mean... havent i been doing everything right recently. I hate hate when people use old / past things that had happened against me. I hate it coz it makes me feel like everything else i've done aint worth it. Doesnt everyone have their past skeletons and stories to tell? Doesnt that make them them? and then coz they've doing certain things before they can become better people in the future? It's so easy to just fuck everything up, so why do people take the extra effort not to? Dunno la. Everything i do seems wrong.
BLEAH i'm turning 27 yrs old. - when i was 17, i had this mentality that people at 25-30yrs old have stopped playing computer games, and have an apartment, and paying bills, and working to save up for a family, and investing money and all those adult crap. How come i'm still playing with my PSP... and thinking of buying a wii or a PS3?

okie.... it's been a long while.. min min reminded me too.
Firstly, mahjong has taken away so many of our nights... thanks to our newcomers Aaron and Elise.., special appearances by Tommy and Xiao.
Secondly, Johan has moved in.. Kitchen has been re-renovated in terms of... new stuffs to hang stuffs.. and Johan's groceries' taking over the food fridge... sometimes spilling over to the drink fridge... and me being me.. am being a little paranoid over the entry of so much food. Coz it used to be me cooking only with nicky occasionally doing his own thing here and there. Now it's almost like 'dinner?' every nite. Which is a good thing i suppose, considering being cooked is a nice feeling.
Thirdly, I'm in the midst of clearing my harddrive... sorting out all the pictures i have and trying to compile them in to little books that i'm going to make. It's a long process and i've only manage to ... select a couple of worthy ones. Shot a few weddings recently and have been pretty hard on myself coz i feel that they werent up to standard at all, maybe it's the new cam.. and true enuff.... yesterday when i went to get a camera for Alywin, my guy at the shop said that for this particular cam that i bought i couldnt use a certain function on it.. - something which i've been using on the older model all this while. So i was like.. "CRAP.. so i spent $3500 on a new camera, that's suppose to be much much better than the old one.. and this function aint better? and it's WORSE!" so much for 'UPGRADING'
Those are the immediate updates.
Just been doing research in all these ILP (investment linked policies) recently and I must say.. that it's ALL ridiculous. This agency says that they are better etc that agency says tat they are better etc.. but it's all so confusing, and me..... i ended up buying 2 policies... 8-year lock in period. But okie la.. now and kinda understand all the crappy jargon they use... in a way and how they use certain things that may look attractive but in fact aint too rosy.
Oh well... like wat i always say.. "the rich will get richer.. the poor will just remain poor.. until 4D strucks"
