Baking time

My blog is being neglected again..I wanted to blog days ago.but the line was not so good..
This post was supposed to be up few weeks ago..haha.

My dear housemate loves to bake so do I..
She was attracted by the colourful fruit tart photo from a recipe and so she's inspired to make one by herself too..
I was free on that day...so we both sama-sama made the fruit tart..

BOth of us are first timers making any kind of tarts...
The fruit tart did not turn out of what it was supposed and expected to be..
This is the 1st one..still looks alright....
While we were baking the crust base..the smell was so nice...but got to resist and wait till the whole thing forms...here is it!
Immediately, we cut a small piece and try...not bad..i love the crust..

The custard cream actually did not form as it is supposed to be...its too watery..and it leak out from the bottom of the tart...so tak boleh d...
Can see that the fruits are like floating in the custard cream..hehe..
Later on, new ideas came in...and we change the filling of the tart.........to chocolate! everyone will love it, CHocoLate..haha...

this is it, taste better, but not the ideal one..

SMILEY of the DAy!

Keep a smile on ur face everyday =)

All along the path I walked today

Today I saw an aeroplane which was going to land as it's moving downwards while I was walking to uni.
I felt abit miserable, wondering when will be the day that I am on the plane which will land on KLIA.
Not excited to land on Tulamarine Airport but on KLIA.
I'm excited to be here four years ago while travelling with family but it seems different now.

I usually listen to songs from my phone while walking to uni too.
When the song 你不在 was played in my playlist, my friend, KC, came into my mind.
I thought of the time when he sang this song in Kbox..
The one always with funny facial expression and high pitch singing voice...
Ohhh..I miss my buddies..

Many more days and night here before I can lie on my comfy bed at home.. :(
Enjoying life here?? Like the place and life here but wish to have and be with the people in msia.

The times when cooking

It's my dear housemate birthday on friday..
Made her brownies when she was out for dinner celebration..
The brownies smell so good and tempting but just waited for her to get back and then gave it to her..with the presentss..
Vanilla ice cream serve with hot brownies! yumm...

-The happy birthday girl-

Of course I'm the one cooking, im just helper..and also learner lar..

A very full dinner that night..all thanks to housemate.. =D

I MIss you!!
You are the one Ng Jinyi.. =D

Quite a happy day on the 19th March..just a lil moody when at night...but it's all over now.. =)
I've been here one month and a day..
Still missing msia family and friends so much..
Still missing the happy memories I had..
with my closest family, with the Ipoh buddies, with the cheeerleaderss and the sam Clan..
They are all irreplaceable! I wish that they are here...

In a new environment and a new life and need to make new friends..
I'm not a v sociable person and it wil take me sometime to get close to new people..
will just try to join more activities to know more people...
Activities coming sooon :
bowling on tues nite, cheese & wine night with the industry people the week following next, visit to ego pharmaceutical and lastly the Asean boot camp!

One thing that I like it here is the diversity of people..
korean,chinese,hongkies,taiwanese,japanese,vietnamese,indonesians and of coz aussies...
quite intereesting to know people from other country n get to know some of their cultures..
recently, I get to know that koreans always bow to their elders, even he is just 1 yr older..they're so polite...n they bow up to 90 degrees..haha..

about the weather, I like it cooling and when its abit warm, like in genting highlands..hehe..but when its cold..i will miss the warm breeze in msia...

I dont reali like the lectures here..its quite brief and need to do alot of self studies..
I still into the way taught in my pre-U where lecturers will give u lots of practice questions n make sure we understand..
miss Ms Sulkhveer,Ms Bianca,Ms Cordelia, Ms Prema,Ms Betty n funny Mr Wong..the great lecturers who hang out and play with the students!

at times, i will think that if Im studying in Monash KL, it will be more fun...
hmm..maybe I'l find it more interesting studying here later in days..
but Im sure working here its far more better than in msia....easy working life..
people work from 8am til 5pm...in banks prob 9am to 4.30pm..so great...

When I'm at relatives comfy homess..it really feel great..well taken care of..haha..
Well, I shall not regret too much on choosing this pathway..i will certainly be here for 3 years..
I stillneed some time to cope with it, studying and living here all by myself..its aint easy..

TOday my housemate birthdaytoo..made a card for her and will be baking brownies too..=)
Hope she'll like it..

"As we go on, we remember all the times we had together,

And as our life change, come whatever, we will still be FRienDs forever."

my long not updated blog..so sorie..
weekdays busy with uni stuff and travelling to relatives hse on weekends..
add on to the limited usage of internet..make me reluctant to blog..haha..
will update it soon!
=)

1st week of Uni

Its the end of my 1st weeek lectures..
Hmm..so far still alright..no assignments yet..
Some old and some new syllablus are being taught..
At the beginning of every lecture, they will said 'Start revison from WEEK 1!'.
Lectures pace are quite fast and brief...really need to do some self-learning at home..
Besides, there will be debate and presentation for Physiology in mid semester!! OHh, I dont know what to do with that..not into debate at all..!!

A capture of myself wheen I was walking back from uni...getting dark day by day as there are so much walking.. =(
But i tend to miss the SUN when it's so cold this few days...
I just tram home rather walking...the wind are so coooldd..
Seems its only the beginning of autumm now...i dont know how to tahan when it gets colder..


Below is the apartment I'm currently staying with two other m'sians..and i'm learning to cook..That's the window of my room too, the upper one!! hehe..


This taken at the Melb Observation deck, nice view being high up..can look at the whole city of Melb..

That's all now...

Tomorrow no lectures and I'm going to spend my weekend at aunty's place..happy =D

Stepping into the uni life

Tomorrow, the first day of lecture in an unfamiliar place with the unfamiliar people and the unfamiliar contents...
Luckily I went for the orientation and slightly knowing a few people in my course, but the 'ganjeong-ness' is still there..
The peers looks so hardworking and well planned people, they printed out the notes, go through the notes and find out the groups of tutorials and practicals..
But for me I just dont know anything..so much self learning here...
Last year, we just have fun and play until we feeel like going to bed, late night yumchass, gatheringss and parties on campus..
After a few hours of sleep then we just go to class with the books or given notes..I like those!!
Unfortunately I think the uni life is different, it's in a higher level and all depends on ourselves, you need to have the desire to learn or u will not get anything.
Well, I shall not think too much bout it..and just experience the lectures.. ( at a fast pace??)

Aussie life is really quite quiet at night, especially not staying in the city...
The chilly cold night also pull me down to stay at home than going out..
I really miss the life back then...
we walked along the streets at midnites 1am..singing songs out loud with my fellow friends..
we do whatever crazy things we thought of..
we stayed up the whole night for the great major events..not feeling tired with wholebunch of friends..
i really miss the life so much..
miss my family...miss my dar..miss my friends...
