I’m answering the golden question : What have I been up to besides partying?

March 21, 2011 by thejessicat

 

 

LOL I've titled this blogpost as such because I've been having lotsa people – readers, family, friends alike – all asking me this very same question.

So Jess, how have you been in Australia? What have you been up to….. BESIDES PARTYING?

 

They just *had* to insert that last bit, didn't they? 


the morning after partying!

 

Haha but I don't blame you guys… clearly, I've been partying my arse off till the sun rises but ironically, this girl here hits her studies twice as hard as she parties.

Yup! mark my words, I am VERY, very, very serious when it comes to my academic progress despite appearing to be on the heat of parties all the time (of which I don't deny). I have been this way since high school – I fancy bad-ass fun but likewise, I fancy beaming at potential High Distinctions on my grades too šŸ™‚

 

Me and my girls at South 8 on rez

 

Yup, we're taking a break from partying one wednesday night and hit up our books till the wee hours of the morning.

Studying and typing furiously at our assignments over coffee, tea and some Oreo Cheesecake I baked šŸ˜‰

 

What else have I been up to? So much more you can't imagine.

Oh and if you have to know, I put my Chicken and Mushroom pie in the  microwave and completely forgot to take it out.


goodness gracious! My burnt lunch one Friday afternoon

 

Also, disregarding the fact that I took an epically long shower until my lunch got burnt, I have also been up to some gastronomic fun! If you've been following my tweets, you would know that I have been cooking up a storm and baking some nomnoms frequently. 

Yes, I have a new hobby now! Cooking and baking.

 

And by cooking, I don't mean microwavables nor instant food that come in packets.

I was referring to REAL food cooked from scratch and proper, scrumptious feasts! šŸ˜€ šŸ˜€ oh joy. A whole blogpost dedicated to that soon!

 

Also, I have been a hardcore game freak 

 

As Pokemon Black & White has just been launched in Australia last week, buddy Kon and I headed up to Traralgon to buy our much anticipated game! He's playing Pokemon White while I took Pokemon Black.

 

this was shot on my 2nd day of the journey.

As we speak, I have just acquired the 7th Gym Badge and my team of 6 are now level 45.

 

 

Yup, rekindling childhood has never been better!

The last time I actually gamed for 7 hours straight was when I was a child of 10.

 

And now, fast-forwarding through a decade… a young lady of 21

 

So.. what else besides gaming, cooking & baking, studying and partying?

Nothing really. Hmm.. watching movies and perhaps some sexytimes šŸ˜› LOL kidding

 

The checklist pinned up on the noticeboard in my West 32 rez. Rather interesting, no?

My housemates and I are equally as insane!

 

Anyway, back to some seriousness.

I've just fnished my E-Journalism assignment last night… which is due in 4 days! Yipppee.

BUT I've just only started my Cultural & Communications Policy essay of a 1000 words today. Yikes. 

 

AND THAT'S DUE IN 5 DAYS TIME.

 

Which means…. I've gotta run!

Need to continue my research on this assignment šŸ™‚

 

I hope I've answered your question šŸ™‚

Tooodles! xx

A jolly good Merry Guinness dinner at Finnegan’s Irish Pub & Restaurant @ Changkat Bukit Bintang!

January 15, 2011 by thejessicat

 
 

Dinnertime! šŸ˜€

Today will be about the belated Merry Guinness christmas dinner I had in Finnegan's!

 

All dolled up for an evening of chillaxing infused with good food + kick-ass drinks, I buzzed buddy Kelly along with me for some nomnoms

 

Oh oh oh oumaigawd. Guinness aplenty!
 

 

A waiter of Philippine descent greeted us with the menu and we skimmed through the list of meals and drinks in a flash.

Heck, we were already so hungry! Traffic jams made it worse. It was 8pm by the time we flipped those pages.
 

While waiting, Mitchell (the Manager of Finnegan's) came outside to join us!

Talk about extra company

 

And more company! The dude on my left is true blue Irish while Mitchell on my right

is a proud product of the US of A. No prizes on guessing the nationality of us ladies!
 

 

We ordered quite a lot of food, as we were planning to share all our meals!

So naturally, it took quite a while to arrive. But issokay! We had our Guinness draught flowing non-stop as well, that pretty much distracted me from the dread of waiting to have my tummy satiated šŸ™‚

Slurps! šŸ˜€ Taking a swig of my ice-cold frothy beer!

 

Down 'em all? Easily.

 

I dare you to dare us.

 

Anyhoozers, small talk and catching up distracted us from our growling stomachs.

And before we knew it, the food arrived before we could say MORE GUINNESS PLEASE? šŸ˜€
 

Check out our Classic Cottage Pie and cute Pizza bites!
 

 

Unlike the traditional English pastry pie, they way this was

cooked/presented somehow reminded me of lasagna! šŸ˜€

 

But nevetheless, boasting the same fantastic taste any beef cottage pie should rightfully have

 

Now allow me to indulge in my pizza bites šŸ˜€

I liked how it came in miniature pieces, so much easier to chomp it down and share among us.

No more messy and cheesy threads all over the place

 

Hmm.. Pizza Hut should incorporate this idea!

Ideal for sharing in large groups too. Just grab a chunk and go!

Have a bite of our pizza, would you? šŸ˜€

 

Despite being much smaller in size, that's as far as the reduction went.

For every bite of the pizza was bursting to the max with sausages, smoked bacon and pineapples!

 

Some snacks to accompany the heavy meal?

We obliged. That's our Calamari and Onion rings served in a basket!
 

 

Being a natural sucker for soup, I ordered a bowl of Leek and Potato Soup
 

 

Just a little trivia : I never really like pork.

Sure, I've gobbled down a slice of bacon or two or even a shred of pork knuckle before. But in general, I tend to avoid pork as much as I can. Why? Nothing of religious nature though, just a mere preference.
 

But tonight, these Barbequed Pork Ribs were too hard to resist.
 

 

So you've seen it in all its glory the moment it was placed onto the table.

But what happened in under 10 minutes? Hmm…
 

 

I swear it mischievously vanished before our eyes and landed into our stomachs.
 

No no no! The piccie below is NOT photographic evidence of how everything disappeared
 

I'm sorry you have to endure savage gluttony forced upon your viewing consumption.

On normal days I am a tad more refined when I eat, just so you know šŸ˜›

 

Wrapped up our delicious Irish dinner with a clink of our glasses

Cheers, babe!

 

Nothing like a burp of satisfaction from food paired with a smooth pint of Guinness.

Trust me, it comes hand in hand! šŸ˜€
 

I say no meal is complete without it

 

Yes Mitchell, we get your point

 

Merry Guinness folks! Needless to say, I had an enjoyable Monday evening! šŸ˜€ šŸ˜€

Now back to reality, time to work that body!
