My Own Cookout!

WHEEE!!! Feeling so good after cooking. Just realized that cooking is my interest after coming to the UK. I don't mind cooking for people if I have the time. I feel so good after cooking although I will be super smelly later on.

I just cooked a SUPER HUGE portion of fried rice. Can probably last me for like 4 dinners in total? At first i thought of cooking all of the mince meat in the fried rice but later decided it was too much. There was like what 40% left and i cant refreeze the mince meat so i'd decided to cook spag sauce as well since i m going to wash the wok anyway. SO I cooked another Big portion of Bolognese sauce for prob about 2 meals... All these can seriously last me for the whole week man! I have to move everything out of the kitchen when i shift to Cryfield and that's the main reason why i m trying to finish everything. XD

AHHH!!! FM FM FM. Not a very productive day. ah cant wait till FM is over! @,@

One down and one more to go

Yay! Management Accounting class test is OVER! and well, it's "only" 10% but it will still make a diff since every 1% counts. I know I got one question wrong already but at least it's not something careless, it's something I really did not know. I always thought direct cost is direct labour and material. but apparently not. it's only direct materials. I really hope everything else will be fine. =)

My after-test- must-relax syndrome is back... just watched 2 episode of Sex and the City when I was supposed to be studying for my FM test. ARGH Fm is so difficult. Elaine and Fm just does not link! OMG STUDY STUDY!

Last Saturday, I had dinner with Kai Yuan and Jia Xin. A lil taste of Home. Sweet and Spicy Pork Ribs, Kai Lan and ABC soup! <3 <3 <3 Had an awesome time cooking and chatting and then munching with them =)


Kai Lan!!! <3 I want more chinese vegetables!


Amazing huh! it was delicious!


Our very own home cooked meal


A few days earlier, I was testing some black pepper packeted sauce which my daddy bought from Malaysia on my god knows how long ago chicken legs... and Tadaa! it sure looks yummy right? Well, IT WAS! <3 The secret recipi to making things taste yummy is to use sauce or powders. Will definitely bring more of those back here next year! =)


OMG Carbury Raisins FTW! good for munching while studying! My saviour *oh must not forget Hot Mocha* really keeps me awake!

Frisbee, MA & FM class test

ahhh, went for frisbee practice today =) so satisfying! Loving the game so much now. i think i have only played frisbee like 6 times? 4 times last term, 2 times this term And i will be playing for Warwick Games! woohoo! It'll be so fun! =)My stamina sucks so badly but we sub for each other so it'll be fine... i need to lose my fats and STOP MUNCHING =( i started munching again and here i tot my UK biscuit craze is over. hais... please please stop buying junks =(


Our team jersey! <3


Argh, 2 class test next week and things are not going well.. i did the first pyq and i scored 33% T.T, second pyq 65% then third pyq 71%. but this is so bad, there are some parts which i really cant ans and it's just luck that the second and third set of pyq i did was something i sort of know. @,@ gosh. and seniors say FM is FREAKING easy. *kill me x.x i cant imagine year 2 and year 3... i really need to grasp the concept. Don't get it = Die

YAY! Spring is coming!!! the weather is nice recently around 10 degrees during the day! i cant wait till it's sunny like the picture below! Some flowers have started to bloom. OMG warwick campus will be so pretty when all the flowers bloom. must go on a campus tour then to capture its beauty <3


SO pretty! <3 imagine with flowers ahh!! can't wait =)


Ugh, need to study!!!!! yay! gonna have dinner with jia xin and kai yuan later! sweet and spicy (?) pork rib with kai lan. muahaha! a taste of home i hope!

11.01.11 =) no longer a teen

Yes, as I have promised, I will make this blog happier by blogging on my first birthday abroad! =) I dun want to be reading back in the future thinking my uni life is sad. =(

I can't believe that I am no longer a teen. I can no longer be a pampered princess who is always being protected by her parents. =( I wanna go back to being the innocent, nothing to worry child. Who doesn't? But i guess it's a part of growing up, 20 years old is neither here nor there, not a teen but not yet an adult. =)

I was down in London during Dec holiday and since Chee yung will not be able to celebrate my bday on the actual day, we decided to have an early celebration! =) Innitially, I wanted to go to to Ciao Bella, an Italian restaurant, for dinner. However, they were closed on that day and hence =( no super yummy seafood pasta cook in paper bag dish for dinner. I was craving for it and it was sad to know that they were closed. In the end, after lots of sms with sis on where to eat around russel square in London, CY and I decided to just eat in another Italian Restaurant. No idea what the name was already. @,@ hehe. The food there was not bad. The starter was yummy! CY treated me since it was my birthday! wahahaah~! =) THANK YOU SO MUCH! =)



The super nice starter! Tasted a bit like garlic bread =)


My presents from Chee Yung


My Dinner - Seafood Risotto


Chee Yung's Dinner - Char-grilled chicken


After dinner and a long chat with CY, I went home and had another mini celebration with my dear sis, the BF and Basil. We had Ice Wine!! OMG super yummy!!! Sis bought it from a christmas market nearby.

Dear sister was super high after, let's see 3 SHOTS of 4.5% alchohol content ice wine?!? which is not a lot? It was so funny when she was all high and making no sense at all! AND her face was SO RED! Followed my parents I guess...

The next day, which is the last day before I return to warwick university. My sister brough me out for a Japanese dinner! HAVE BEEN CRAVING FOR IT and now looking back at those pictures =( i feel like my cravings are here again. BUt so sad, Japanese food is sooo Expensive here. One person's dinner *jap food* here is prob 3 person's dinner(cheap places) *jap food* in Malaysia. @<@ guess food is generally more expensive here la! it's like eating out every single day spend RM 25 at least a day on food. OMG!

Anyway, the dinner was ok only, nothing great. It was more to the homely Jap restaurant kind where u have dinner sets rather than sushi and sashimi choices. But, Japanese food nonetheless, salmon sashimi yum! so can't complain. hehee! After that, although we were all quite full, my sis decided to bring us to Princy for cakes! *A substitute for birthday cake! ahah! but so sad, no candles... =(



Yum Yum Ice Wine! <3


Red Face Yvonne! =P


RUM & RAISIN ice cream from Thorntons! <3 <3 <3 OMG


SALMON SASHIMI - Craving for it right now =(


Tempura which was surprisingly yummy!


Wei yang and beef teriyaki set!


Thank you JIE JIE for bringing me for Jap dinner
* ahah! i m not trained since young to called my sis jie jie


Princi Restaurant - super lots of people


My 2 cakes - forgotten their flavour already but i would have to say there's nothing special about them...

_____________________________________________________________________________________

ON the actual day itself, at 12 am, Kai Yuan appeared at my doorstep with OMG yummy blueberry muffins from Sainsbury and Smarties Chocolate cake!!! =) it was yummy!

Anyway, my dear friends from College i.e. Yen li*HK*, Zhi Yuen*Msia* and Chee Yung were awake and we had a group skype chat! AWW! Love them all so much! =) we chat for almost 2 hours before Yen li had to leave for lectures. I really enjoyed talking to them, them siging happy birthday song to me through skype. Ah, the wonders of technology. =)

What a coincidence that the opening of accommodation booking for the next year was on my Bday =) SO anxious moment was when we wanted to sign in to book and confirm a house we really wanted before others. Kiasu Malaysians aka us - visited the house before the house was open for booking for viewing. haha! but now come to think of it, the hosue id=s not very nice. and it's quite a distance to walk from the bus stop... ahah! complaining much. XD

But at that point in time when we managed to confirm our house, I felt it was the best birthday present! =) hehehe!! and Kai Yuan planned a "surprise" bday party which was not really a party since we had to rush off for lecture super soon and it was not really a surprise since i saw KOK DIN standing outside my room door... ahha! so it Failed!! but i had a good laugh. But it's the thought that counts so THANK YOU SO MUCH kai yuan! =) I know planning is not what he does normally so I feel even more honoured that he took the initiative to plan something for me. <3 awww kawan 35! <3


Skyping with my dear friends on skype at 12 midnight!


<3 <3 <3 hehee


OMG yummy bday cake!


Making my awesome sandwich for 4 person for lunch


Organizer cutting cake to eat


ahha! the not so kiasu msians who later became scared after we told them that we booked and confirmed our house already... they went to visit the hse immediately. @,@


My unglam friend! Jake Chia
somehow i din take many pictures... probably cos I was rushing for lectures...


Group picture with everyone who celebrated my bday! =)

SO after our lectures, we were all so excited and hence we decided to revisit the house to have a better look on which room each of us individually want, and also a chance for kai yuan to see the house for the first time. =)

"JENG JENG JENG" I present to you our future house! =)

It was my first time ordering a bowl to myself! giam sap ma.. but ever since then, i have been ordering a bowl to myself and freaking finishing it! OMG, FAT to the max edi. =(
