Christmas 2010

For the very first time of my life, I celebrated Christmas away from home.....Didn't feel a twinge of guilt at all as I've compensated my absence with a sumptuous pre-Christmas dinner that took me half a day to prepare.


All I wanted most for Christmas is YOU

The journey to his place, like usual, appeared long and tiresome. However my eagerness to be in his protective arms again made the ride bearable. Anyway, reached there at 9pm and was greeted by him and his siblings. Seriously I can't help but liking them a lot....they felt like part of my family too. Had some bean sprout chicken rice and ended it with mango ice.....yums...

Went back to his place and voila...Christmas pressie exchange time...I presented him my humble gift as I am financially not able to splurge on him yet....Still, he is grateful for em.....As for mine....he made me do a lil' treasure hunt and finally I found it.hidden behind a paper bag. Slowly, I unwrapped the box-like gift...and in it....it was a COACH clutch...I squealed with joy and excitement and immediately I pinned him down and started to snog him crazy.


My First Coach Pouch

Absolutely love my gift....I've always wanted a coach...he made it come true this christmas. I LOVE U BB...thanx....p/s : he made his best buddy got it from Florida ages ago...

On Christmas eve.....I spent the day in his workshop...The day felt exceptionally long...when there wasn't many customers, we did a lil rough and tumble like usual...his grasp are bloody strong....took me pretty much effort to free my wrist from his hands....BUGGER.....I laughed so much that i had stitches =.='"....It was fun nonetheless



2 Glutton Faces

After dinner, all three of us dolled up ( him, the sis and me) and went out to his friend's place to party...but before that, we still pigged-out a lil ...had my turkey slices...yippee =D



The Pretty Babes of the lot


And the sad Number of Dudes

There were music, dancings, drinks and pressie exchanging...I can't believe that he got my present n i got his sis's ferrero, after drawing logs....Coincidence? Or fate made in heaven??? I got to see fireworks that night too...Thanks to Kenneth =D



Happy pressie recipients


We left the pub at 2 plus before snuggling ourselves under the duvet.....Was dead tired...
After a couple of hours resting we had to pull ourselves up again,to have a huge breakkie with his parents.....thank god I did not stone. Althought it was Christmas, yet his customers spare him with no mercy...=(
They insisted on asking for his aid to repair their vehicles...BUMMERS!!!!

Were supposed to go korean for Christmas dinner but a friend called and invited us over for dinner, the moment we got back to KL....and since he is a buddy....we changed plans ....we owed him a birthday dinner anyways...


Things i do to him when I'm tat sleepy and bored...

On Boxing day, we visited granny at the nursing home and had a HUGE breakfast with her again. Poor BB got stuffed to the brim by Dad.. He just can't stop offering B food....I guess it's his way to express that he is fond of my B.

The colourful toys concept Decor in MV is pretty interesting

After that, we headed for Midvalley and Gardens to do shopping for him..I was a good shopping kaki....managed to get him jeans and shirt...still questing for a right pair of sneakers...will continue that next week =) I'm sure we will find it even if it means to raid all the mall prevailing in the city.


A Greedy B Devouring all the Haagen Daz



Licks....my raspberry sorbet

We ended our garment hunting with a generous portion of Zanmai sushi....The bill came up to RM123......Wat a record breaker....muahahaha!! I was truly satisfied..yummers




Christmas 2010...indeed was a whole new experience.....thank you santa for giving all the lovely and wonderful moments this Christmas...The perfect gift I believe is a gift of wonderful memories that will cherish your life perpetually....












You are always a Gift to me...

20.10.2010 : I Made My First Chicken Chop

I MADE MY VERY VERY FIRST CHICKEN CHOP!!!!

Am totally proud of it!!! Did it from the stratch....from shopping for the ingredients right up to washing up...I like every part of the process except for the cleaning up though




The ingredients were rather simple actually. Only involved the basics...no rocket science...still....i am very proud of my great imagination in mixing and matching based on my instinct...no recipe, no systematic measurements. Just pure estimation.

The deboned chicken thigh was marinated with sesame oil, black and white pepper powder, Lea Perrin sauce, a lil light soy sauce, brown sugar and lotsa garlics and shallots...Once it's done sitting in the fridge, simply heat up the pan, put half a teaspoon of butter and with low fire, fried them till they turn golden brown....or more brown perhaps =D

A for the gravy, juz sauteed some finely chopped garlics and half-ring onions, the when it is slightly golden, just pour the rest of the raw marinated sauce from the chicken and add in like 3-4 small bowl of waters...add in lotsa black n white pepper, sugar and salt to taste. It was pungent enough for me to continuously add in water. When it starts to boil, i added in some starch to make it a lil thicker...=D


Finally for the side dishes, i simply blanched my beans, cauliflower and mini corn in boiling water... I made sure that i did not overcooked them. Wanted to maintain their crunchiness still.
I was lucky as my veggies were so fresh and sweet...double thumbs up .....Not forgetting the carb portion...mash potatoes with 2 whole eggs, mixed with a lil extremely finely chopped shallots , a tablespoon of butter and 2 tablespoons of mayo, a pinch of salt and pepper to taste...should remember the spring onion in the future =D



I must say, my culinary skill did not really deteriorate after these years...It's still in tiptop condition...I guess I can make him dinner very very soon =D
Next stop : yong tofu ala granma =D

09.10.10



After a month long of patient waiting, we are reunited once again. Rather briefly but every nanosecond is registered and even imprinted in both the mind and heart.


I was hopping and skipping on cloud nine when the sun greeted me. Trying my best to suppress the overwhelming excitement that is brimming in my heart, I put up a nonchalant mask to appear both calm and indifferent.To appear with a gathered composure.Perhaps if one gaze deeply into the dark irises one could see the flame of passion flickering in them.

I was estatic that your were given the green light to stay a night here even if it means for me to offer you my entire room.Something that i will never do regardless of any circumstances.Compromise is out of consideration.
After a wholesome homecooked dinner, once again we headed to the very destination where the first chapter of our story begin. It felt like years already passed when it was only more than a month. I guess all those dreading time apart made time crawled.
Alongside with great companies, we walked along the streets, welcomed by the gushing cold wind that never fail to penetrate through the layers of clothing. In the heat of the humour and laugthers, you kissed me shamelessly as though it was something common . I was caught off guard, astounded and yet the heart beamed with pride. My darling, you always surprise me.

Of hugs, cuddles, kisses and piggybacks....you only made our meetups sweeter then ever.



I am truly glad that you agreed to even meet my circle of bosom buddies and even attended the convocation knowing that you will be drenched with sweat and succumbed into the torturous sunny and humid weather. On top of that, u even offer to jointly pay for the flowers. What an act of generosity. I was flattered. Not to mention your random act of care and being responsible towards my buddies made you shine even more.....I'm so proud of you my darling. Selfless, generous and kind........always embedded in your actions.....

Every sweet dream will lead to reluctant awakening.....every hellos will lead to goodbyes......but for us.....it's always the other way round....every sweet departure marks another reason for a welcoming back......

Happy Mid-autumn Festival

Zhong Qiu Jie Kuai Le ......

How i wished to be with my family today, instead of getting stuck all alone in the shoebox-room and dated by my UNFCCC notes. Although my family did an advance celebration, yet nothing beats the actual day......I miss home and my family.

Looking back at my childhood memories, today is one of the most awaited for in the calendar. Those days, when I was still a young, round and jolly girl, Mid-autumn festival was best celebrated at Po Po's place. I could recall how i made my parents got me pretty lanterns that came in various shapes and sizes. My favourite will always be those that has shiny gold dust on the outer surface or perhaps even more extravagant, shapes that resembled ancient food-carrier of some sort, ala Chang Er, the legendary pretty lady in the moon. Well, the best thing of course was lighting up packets of colourful candles on empty biscuit or milo tins and then perhaps create some mini campfire to roast insects n peanuts or even better just bloody burn those cheap paper lanterns.....nothing beats the fun of playing with fire. How I wish to stay a child forever.

This year's celebration was rather unique in a pleasant way. Had a dinner of western dishes and then wrapped up by chinese oriental desserts( those delicious tang yuan...oh my)....and the verdict: absolutely AWESOME.....the best would be chomping and gobbling down of food prepared by all of us. I dare to say, we did fix an impressive dinner thou =) As for more merit points, we did all the cleaning too.....(I hate dat)

Apart from all these, somewhere in my heart, as usual, will never leave him out....for all the moments I lived and enjoyed since that day, the thought of him always follows by. Although we did not get to celebrate it for real, yet being able to see him via the webcam, hearing his voice, knowing that he was searching for the shy moon ( I tried looking too) and how much his heart yearn to be with me is sufficient to comfort of the heart. It did occur to me that I would simply be reckless, and go look for him..but i guess my logic mind overdominated the heart and hence, I'm here, still stuck within the 4 blocks of wall, accompanied by my faithful electronic devices that allow him and I to be connected. Praise Science and Technology .....

This year's celebration was indeed quirky, in a pleasant way.

My Little Country Romance


It was perhaps fate that brought us together. Never in my wildest imagination that a rowdy, rugged and rather loud country boy would ended up being my sweet darling. I've been praying each night to heaven, hoping that someday I will find a man that would dream of my dreams, a man who would thaw all the icy barriers that surround my heart and a man who will walk beside me, accompanying me along the road of life.....




And today, I'm truly thankful to heaven for answering my prayers. To give me this opportunity to love another man as much as I can love myself......


I was rather hesistant and skeptical about my impulsiveness in embarking on a new relationship just as soon as the last one ended.But these few days, staying with him clarified all uncertainties....The little seed of love bloomed even more now.






For the past few days of my holidays, I thought that I was living in a dream. From standing on the jetty in each others' embrace, under the clear night sky, speaking of our yesterdays and tomorrows to waking up in the morning mist on the serene hills,in each other's company....Days are filled with sunshine and beaches, fun companies and laughters and most of all, a lover who will give you his all....




In the eyes of others, all these are of no uniqueness, too common, too simple. Yet, in my eyes.....they are the little parcels of bliss that are priceless.For every second that was passing by, my heart actually live and it felt all the pure sincerity he has for me....For the very first time, I've found the arms and chest that i will call my sanctuary.




A couple of days has passed but the memory is still crystal clear. His warm touches never left my skin....his smile and soft gaze that I adore so much, constantly appear to sight of my mind.....My love, how I long to be by your side again, to see you fall asleep each night and to kiss you good morning each day....to see you smile at me...or even steal a few glances of me....how much i wish to be stuck fast to you like a siamese twin
