Two days in one.

Written on 19/01/2010

I miss the days when I didn't have to worry about what to eat tomorrow. It's such a drag to think of what to eat/cook tomorrow =/

Have been only attending afternoon lessons recently. Got 'aiyo-ed' by my mum for that, heh. She's worried I won't be able to graduate with a lousy attendance when I've been telling her that I'm in the safe zone liao. Haha but I know, I don't do it intentionally lah. Not really anyway. Like this morning, I really had a huge headache. Yesterday.. well, yesterday was because I didn't know what was the first 2 periods so decided to skip it. Turned out to be English afterall. Guess I didn't miss anything much? But yesyes, I'll be attending full-day school tomorrow.

Hmm.. if school started later, I could eat brunch instead of having to think of what to eat for lunch.

Good news, I went to school for the whole day today. Though the last two periods were spent talking because there were too few people to conduct lessons (or as thought by my teacher). Win-win situation, I get my attendance and get to slack (:

Went out after school today. Thought I could eat curry hotpot but turned out we were not having dinner outside ): So I dutifully trudged back home and decided to cook mee goreng, instant. To lessen the guilt for eating instant noodles (my mom instilled this guilt in me! Though not for uncertified reasons (: ), I dumped alot of vegetables in it. Okay, that's what I normally do to all my meals if I can lah, to fulfill the "eat vegetables and fruits every day" condition that I was brought up by.

Here are some food pictures to brighten up my blog! Warning: not very appetising!

Dinner: My failed attempt at a hotpot ):

Chicken salad for lunch. Pretty pleased with it (:

Dinner: Haha, Laksa Maggi with lots of veg and tofu (to make up for the guilt, remember?)

Dinner: Tomato Egg Soup. It looks kinda mashed up because I accidentally stirred in the egg abit too fast. It was supposed to have a swirly egg kinda look.

Lunch: Teriyaki Salmon. It looks very charred because the pot is black too! Haha it turned out alright though I should have put more sugar in.

Yeah so these are my pathetic attempts at cooking. Heh, so if you think I cook well, think again! Total fail la. But as long as it's edible to me, I'm fine with it :P

Looks like I'll have to take China Airlines when I fly back because of the pitstop to Taiwan. Heard alot of negative comments about it (eg it falling into the sea etc), so I'm kinda apprehensive about it =x But if that's the only airline I can take, I can't be picky about it. I should just be thankful if I can go back again this time.

Just ate 汤圆courtesy of Kegan. Oh, I've missed the pandan flavour! They actually do sell pandan here, in an Indonesian shop. But ever since coming here, my motto had been to cook simple. Involving too many foreign ingredients is not my idea of simplicity. Maybe until I get my own kitchen and microwave oven la, then I'll attempt more exciting dishes. Haha and I've stopped posting my food pictures on FB to prevent any more negative comments lol.

Feel like eating ondeh-ondeh and muah chee. I always have such weird cravings at such weird times right! The last time I made a list of what I wanted to eat when I went back, but the funny thing was my desire to eat those sort of disappeared the moment I touched down in Singapore. I think I missed Singapore too much and that kinda channelled into my appetite, which was not exactly accurate after all. Y'know, like how you will always crave for the other country's food when you're in this country. When I was in Singapore, I craved sushi, to be honest. But ever since I came back, I've yet to eat even one. Huh. The ironies of life. I don't understand myself too.

Ruth! Hang in there, okay! I understand how tough school can get, but think of all the positives in your life (you're good at that, remember?) and you'll be fine! (: Will be praying for you!

Very belated, but Happy 21st Birthday Daphne! Sounds like you had a wonderful celebration! (:

What's this weird feeling in me.
