I seriously need a break. My mind is doggone full of Ribena berries. LOL. How I wish.
I just need some time to space out.
A recess from the rough rides within this mortal breath.
Before I succumb to adversity
In the process I need a word of cheer
Someone to brush away a falling tearTo immerse myself in the clear water blues
A rejuvenating feel; a new shade of hues
Cascading away into the depths of tomorrow
Would there really be no such thing as sorrow?
Keeping my head above the waves of malevolence
I deem the only barricade to eternal benevolence
For there is no annihilating the rocks in the process
Of achieving what we would constitute as success
I’d romp around in the meadows green
In sunshines so lovely it always seems
I’d peer into the stream; gracing what the eye can see
Further into what more of a person I can entirely be
The mind is churning in progress
Beyond anything there is to regressThe pain that comes a-calling; I’d wish to toss away
For Father to guide me in uncertainty; is all that I can pray
If I could build a treehouse; or a place to call my own
I’d gladly do it; for the times to weep alone.
A smile in the morning, the sweetest gift of love
The tune of canaries , a melody from up above
What the heart whispers is truly unfathomable
A cryptic enigma; one that is undecipherable
Hence, my escapade to Ipoh
Where all the big hugs are and a place to call home.
Adios. Dear readers, I will be leaving Penang tomorrow morning.
One of my besties turns 19!! Well umm.. not yet though. Almost =) in another few days babe!
*hugss & kisses*
Her pre-birthday celebration was a fun-filled evening/night! There wasn’t any booze though, but hey, it’s different for a change. We had good clean fun!
In the beginning when it’s still bright..
My hottie rocks! Happy early burfday Christine!!
So yeah, we engaged in a silly fight of Group A vs. Group B in who’s side of the BBQ pit lights up faster and brighter. Fine! Choki won. =) Happy?? =P
Oh, and a purple potato. Joyce!!! Eat this!!!!
Hugss and smiles babes!
Oh and, there’s a good round of Chor Tai Tee and BlackJack – which I earned RM5. Not forgetting that I owe Gary 30cents! LOL
(LiPeng looks so happy I owe Gary 30cents. heeeheeee)
The other piccies are with Sha and Peng =) *hint hint* Still waiting for them to send em to me!!
Mine are in FaceB. Check it out if ya wanna
I had a great time with all of you! It’s great to be seeing yall once again after so long. And btw Christine, I was just about to say, “I hope you like my present!!” but you’ve already told me you loved it in your comment- here! Yay!
Note to Christine – you can’t see my wwwwwiiiiiiiiiiiide smile but if you wanna I would bluetooth it to you babe. haha!
Talk about being domesticated. One of my besties Rachel and I are concocting our very own improvised potato salad! Yay!
I shall let yall in on an embarrassing fact about myself – I’ve never practically stepped into the kitchen before. Well, ‘cept to peek at what Dubby is doing. LOL. Not to that extent of course. I exaggerated, but the truth is more or less embedded within that sentence. I can have Dubby to vouch for that. oh yes.
Wow is the word. I never thought I’d lived to hear myself say, “Hey! MY cut-up carrots looks so nice.” Thing is, I couldn’t care less about how I cut it up, using what method whatsoever. Certain cut-ups are called ‘Julienne’ and so on and so forth. Earth to carrots??? Look, there are even names of how to cut you puny little things up. How grand can you be?
I’d also never thought I’d hold a carrot the way I held it just now, let alone cut it up into lil unsymmetrical cubes all by myself. Omigosh. Kitchens can be awfully warm too.
I know I look ridiculous doing this. In orange, I even resemble a carrot myself. =(
But hey, it turned out alright. (TO ME)
Again, shut up, three of you. I know, they are all pieces of jagged whatnots to you. Nothing like your perfect diced-cubes, matchsticks, paper-thin slices, parallel shreds or the work of your deft hands that upstages mine anytime.
At the end of the day, they are still edible.
Potatoes, Japanese cucumber, Japanese mayo, my lovelylovely carrots and other nonsense too. The boiling potatoes look so adorable gurgling haphazardly while bobbing up and down (inset). Eggs voluntarily jumped into the pot of boiling water after the potatoes, waiting to be hardboiled.
After lots of smashing, mixing, tasting, improvising and mashing… here we are, standing proud with our fruits of labour
Tried, tested, and most importantly,
MADE IT.
verdict? we love it!!
