Fat Sushi

We made sushi yesterday and it wasn't too bad for our first attempt. Just that our rice portions were a little too fat. Instead of bite size it was mouth full size. So when you put the whole thing in your mouth, you will look like a hamster that just stuffed its mouth full with sunflower seeds.



The rice was a little hard too, it would be nice if it was slightly more soft and sticky. KY and I kept thinking of opening a Japanese cafe near our place, cos there's no Jap food around this area. If we do open one it will be a sellout. There's a few offices and the lunch crowd is really not bad. Plus, I've just went for a coffee barista course. So I can make that perfect cup of coffee with a real espresso machine.

Well that's all nothing but talk, how can we possibly run a business while being full-time students. I guess we'll just leave that thought for later.

I'm going for Armin later with Bren and Mel, quite excited cos its been a long time since Godskitchen 2006. I'm only afraid that my back will not last as long as I want it to. Been having backaches again recently. Can't stand up for too long, if not it will hurt quite a fair bit. I think I need to make an appointment with the chiropractor soon.

Weird Feelings

Today just feels WEIRD.

It's COLD.

I feel SAD.

Is it PMS? But it's a little too soon for that.

I just signed up for a barista course. $250 bucks, 2 days. Tomorrow and Friday. I guess this will help me to kill time. Everyone is busy and stress about the upcoming exams. ME? I'm relaxing at home doing nothing. Well I did do SOMETHING today. Called the agent to fix the ceiling, called VCAT about my bond refund, emailed the country club about my absence, signed up for barista course, and called Telstra to get my Foxtel connected.

Telstra really SUCKS. Period.

This is the second time I've called them and both times they made me wait like half hour, and the problem is still not solved. And guess what? They asked me to call back AGAIN. Not only Telstra. VCAT as well. I called to find out that they sent the cheque to the wrong address. How DUMB can one get?? How can 79 sound like 99? Now I have to fill up a form and SNAIL MAIL back to them. This is going to take FOREVER, just to get $1522 back. I guess I need to go to the post office before is closes later.

I somehow miss home. I feel like flying back. Should I go back after Armin and come back when they finish exams? I feel so UNWANTED, like I'm a waste of space.

Now I'm not only SAD, but I feel like an empty eggshell.

Birthday Wishes!

It's KC's birthday, well technically yesterday but we're still up at 3AM. He's playing manhunt 2 and I'm blogging next to him, literally. He celebrated his 22nd. Planned a surprise dinner at our home, invited some of his friends that he hasn't seen in a long time. He was surprised with the people that actually came cos he was only expecting the usual few. I guess I did a good job surprising him.

Well, I hope he does well for his honours and writes a superb thesis to accompany that. Also that he gets/does what he wants when he finishes at the end of the year.

I had the privilege of cooking for everyone. Made Nasi Lemak with curry chicken and beef rendang. The rendang was actually quite good, to my surprise. We finished all the rice which was also quite nice despite the fact that I forgot to add salt into it. Well I must say it's been a day full of surprises.

Baby, Happy Birthday! Love you lots! Muacks!!!

End off with some pictures. [gallery]

Broken thoughts

It's been awhile since I've last made an entry. A LOT has happened during this period of absence.

Firstly, I had my blog moved from blogger to wordpress. Thanks to Joyce for showing its wonderful features, and it's really simple to use (much easier than blogger) but I've heard of wordpress much earlier from Joanne cos she's using it.

Anyways, I don't really know where to start cos I've lost my train of thoughts. This entry was actually started last Monday, but I was forced to stop just after starting 2 lines cos Bren came over to do work and I had to help out with her management assignment. Not only that, Daphne was here for 2 weeks. I brought her to Yarra Valley, bought her lunch at this beautiful winery (Yering Station). Suppose to go Phillip Island too, but was too tired.

Although I've not started uni yet, I seem to be very busy. I really don't know what the hell I've been up to. 24 hours a day doesn't seem enough. I seem to have endless things to do. Wash, clean, iron, clean, cook, clean. I keep thinking the house is dirty, but I really think it is. (or am I thinking too much??)

Now that I'm back in Melbourne, I'll be updating more often. I still don't know what to write. I'm lost.

Half way there

I'm glad to say that I am half way to reaching my goal of losing 10 kgs! I've lost about 5 kgs so far! But the sad news is that my breasts are smaller now. What can I do? It can't be helped. Breasts are made of fats, so when you lose weight, that's the most significant place where the weight loss is visible.

Solution: Eat more papaya!
(Well I don't really know if it works, but I'll give it a shot!)

My baby has been really really busy lately, especially this week. Test, presentation and interview. He hardly even has time to eat!

I miss you baby!

I'm always there giving you moral support!
I really wished I was there for your first interview, so I could iron your shirt and fix your tie. Guess I'll have to save it for next time.

I've also been busy myself. Working during the day, going out with parents sometimes. Trying very hard to find time for Jon Jon over the weekend when he comes out from camp. I really need to meet up with him again, at least once before I head back for Melbourne in 4 weeks time (less than that actually). 4 weeks seems like a long time, but it actually passes pretty fast. Scaringly fast.

Oh well, can't wait to go back. I miss my new home! And I miss going out with Kit Yee toooo!! We're going to get a trolley when I get back. HAHAHA!

OK OK. Enough said.

Its been a long time....

Oh my goodness!! Its been so long since I last updated. See how time flies!
Its more than two months since the last time I logged in.

Anyways....

My complexion is MUCH BETTER now. I feel more beautiful. *HAPPY*
Also, I've lost some weight, about 2 kgs. It's far from my goal but I'm happy thus far, I hope I can lose more. I'm back in Melbourne for a holiday with Melody and to visit KC. I think I spend most of my time with KC than with Melody.

Sorry babe!

Well my friends have commented that I've lost weight. Yeapie! But KC still insists that I look the same. *SADNESS*

Oh well, we've found a new apartment to move into already. Both our leases for our current apartments are ending, so we decided to move in together. We'll be moving this Wednesday. It's a brand new apartment at Oakleigh, mezzanine style. Totally LOVE IT!! PLUS!!!! IT'S NEAR CHADSTONE!!

HAHAHA!!

We're going there today to do some shopping (with Kit Yee). Can't wait to move!

KC has been really busy with work, so I don't really want to disturb him. So I've been spending most of my time with his sister, Kit Yee. Because my birthday is coming up soon, KC kept asking me what I want for my birthday. What I really want is a ring but I know it's not right for him to buy me that now. So I told him to get something else instead. Which he had such a hard time figuring out.

I was quite upset that he didn't know what to get me.

Gosh, that's like quite a lot of stuff to update on. Alrighty then, gotta go get ready for out shopping trip!

~Ciao~

Fats are upsetting

I've just returned from my trip to KL. It was nice to see KC, it made me really happy.

BUT...

Meeting his parents wasn't that good.
I wasn't me.
I had no idea why I was so nervous.
I was like a quiet timid mouse.
And the worst thing is, my friends outshine me.
Even KC thinks so.

I'm really UPSET.

I think it's because I'm older than him, and I'm afraid that his parents would mind. Also because I'm fat.

My FATS are really making me lose confidence in myself. I'm not the confident sexy woman that I used to be anymore. My hair isn't that nice and my complexion isn't that good either.

I feel so LOUSY.

I need to get that control back in my life. I want to feel confident again.

My first step: Lose 10kgs.

Once I have all these excess baggage off me, I'll be the old me. Full of confidence and worthy enough to love my man.

It really hurt when KC said I looked fatter than I was when he last saw me.

It's as if he dug my heart out and stabbed it with a knife.

I'm going to take control. From now. From this moment.
