LiVe to EaT

Announcement : This post contains whole load of photos.

Had a good trip back to malaysia and been eating around, the fav food..hehe..thus, put on some extra kgs again in that 3 short weeks.


MALAYSIA!
THe homecook foood by papa, this time i spent my time around kitchen and help out, get some tips in cooking and be the assistant instead of sitting in the couch waiiting for dinner. XP
Papa used to shuuuu everyone out of kitchen too last time as he dont want us to kacau kacau and block his way..but now he's so happy when me n sis wants to learn cooking..

curry prawns with spinach leaves.hehe. i just randomly steal some for deco.

see the spinach is there and steamed eggs and radish soup.love radishsoup.


another home cook meal, this time i was lazy and didnt help out..as usual lying on the couch.. XP
mixed vege-thai style beancurd-fried fish

I cooked once dinner too for my family, with the assistant mr.ng.hehe..was very fun cooking especially with him. although sweating alot and alot cooking in malaysia.hehe..in melb, i put my hands above the hot pots to warm up my hands..the first trial cooking back at home was moderate only. actually im not satisfied with it. i need more practice.

Szechuan french beans-steamed chicken-fried onion eggs-



This best dish of the night.haha..


Penang food-'oh jien'
I only eat the eggs. xp


The fritters stall. U can see it along the road while driving up to BAtu Ferringhi.
My family always stop to buy a mixture of them and we will enjoy it in the hotel.
THe banana fritters are lovely,they are special and the batter used is different from usual ones. of course it cost more tooo, one banana is 90cents i think, and there are fried sweet potatoes, yam and others.

Back to Ipoh, the 100 Yen shop which sells this snowflake now. Seekee brought me there and also belanja the two bowls of snowflakes.There are about 8 varieties.we had this greentea with some red bean on top and the mango with some real mango fruit on top too.






TGI fridays during the penang trip. my dear sis miss out again.haha..but she actually tried before this few dishes that we ordered.
-The Mac and cheese-

the fav- creamy sauce pasta with chicken. its really creamy and cheesy and that's the reason its so nice.


some sizzling chicken with cheese and mash potato.



the desert-snickers and tropical flavour.



The ice kacang that is my super fav. Tong sui kai stall which is the best ice kacang i had in ipoh. The finest ice and of course there are lots of toppings too. Looks colourful and nice too isnt??



Curry chicken- yummy
I had lots lots lots of curry and spicy food too during the trip.

homecook curry chicken-roticanai sponsored by mr.ng and cucumbers for cooling effect.
i will definitely miss roti canai and naan.


are those enough to make ur saliva drop?? hehe
I am missing my home, my ipoh town and my holidays.

back to the road

Three weeks just gone and I’m back in Melbourne, the busy city where I live in the past few months.
The place where drastic changes occurred.
The place where I’m forced to learn and forced to be on myself.
The place where I feel about live differently and do things that I will never do back in Malaysia.

My laptop gave me a welcoming present by taking away my internet connection on the very first day I’m back at melb home. Tried hours and hours, getting help from others and still not able to get the connection. Living without the internet is terrible. On top with the serious homesickness and calling card used up. Two days gone and finally sent it to the ‘Dr.’, costs me $70 dollars to reinstall the Vista to fix the problem but I still don’t know what’s the problem + rm 40 to reformat in ipoh. Now, internet connection solved, printer unable to install, unable to print all the notes and tutorial sheet. hope to get it fix soon.

The first week of my second sem, without any lecture notes in hand and giving excuse that its just the first week, just relax and enjoy my time. Hehee..although lectures already started as usual. Sleepovers, shopping with friends and spending some time with relatives for the remaining week.

Will post about the ‘cuti-cuti Malaysia’ soon. =) The greatest time I had although I just moved around in Ipoh and a few days in Penang.

It’s so nice.
Waking up in the morning in this familiar place, warm and cozy.
Egg tarts and a plate of fritters mixture on the dining table.
A bowl of hot red bean soup, enriched with sago and glutinous rice balls.
Beloved papa prepared all this in the early morning. =)
I like my life. The way being loved and taken care.
It’s the life I had the few months in last Dec and Jan.
It’s very unproductive and boring at times, but I miss those times.
Lucky, I get to taste the ‘King of Fruits’ too on my first day back home. XP Delicious.
Spent some time with friends, celebrating mr.Renyu ‘15th’ big birthday, crazi-ing and laughing, basically we moved around every corner of the room..haha…if there’s loud and RnB musics, then………lol..
Lovin it. Time please stop!

Glowing face =)

Dung Dung Dung Dung,
Cant wait…the airport atmosphere, the announcements that u can hear in every few minutes, the people you’ll see in airport, depart or arrive.
Been a frequent visitor of KLIA last year, most of the time was around the departure hall, get to look at people that are sending farewell wishes, some reluctant to go down the escalator, some happily walk into the gate, different kind of moods and gesture u can observe. Looking at them, I always wonder if I’m the person leaving, how will it be, experienced it few months ago.. =(

Just look forward now!!
*Teng Teng*
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, My name is XXX, ur co-pilot, our flight MH 148 will be heading to KUL, estimated arriving time will be 2110………………
Have a pleasant flight with Malaysian Airlines.

Yipppieee..Going on the plane again! Something to cheer but not sorrow..
Moment I long loooong awaited is sooon soooon here..
Although it’s abit different at this time, people will be scared of all students from melb.
I will need to put on the mask throughout the journey :(
Please bless me and shield me from all the nasty virus.
