*yawn~ i need sleep

have not been at home for the past few days and also spend quite a lot of money eating outside. went to uni on saturday to do my video assignment and work all the way until morning. slept in the lab at around 8am and then got woken up at 12pm. was still talking with charlotte on the msn and still thot it was still in the morning. she was like "huh! what u talking about?" (as usual). then i continue to add in more of the graphics into the video and now just left with a few parts to work on.

then later that night i went home to take some time out for shower. so me and jason went home by borrowing marlon's car. but then when i was on my way back to uni after my shower, the car stopped halfway on the road cos there was no fuel. so i waited for jason to come and then we walked to the petrol station and get some fuel for the car. then went to mac to have dinner.

have been doing work and also practising dota this 2 days and it was really fun. feels like i am back to poly days where we play and work together in the lab. now back at home to get some rest and should be going back to uni tmr agan to continue working on assignment. wanna finish the assignment fast and then can relax.

missed the f1 show on sunday due to the stupid video assignment and somemore i loved that track cos it runs through the monaco houses. but just too bad i cant watch. well... ferrari lost again and mclaren got first and second place. hope the ferrai can catch up with the title race...

很矛盾,很奇怪

have been writing my essay assignment today. i seem to have a theory subject every semester and this sem is design, technology and society. so i have to write something that involved in design, technology and the society. decided to write on manga and the theme of kawaii-ness and also how this kawaii curture is influencing the asian countries, especially taiwan.

had been reading comics or manga since i was very young, think abt 9 or 10. the first comic i bought was doraemon and the first set of comic i read was dragonball. for this assignment, i had to like relate some facts of manga but very strange that i cant really write something out of it. had been struggling to come out with something to write. then also try and look for references and see how i can say and combine together. really driving me crazy sia... now only like come out the first paragraph. think when i send to tze wei to see, she surely want to punch me sia.

din do well for the test, actually failed the test. feel quite sad but i think is no point crying over spill milk, (tho normally i will still drink the spill milk) - irrelevant. i guess what i can only do is to come out with a "zai" essay lor. but after today, i feel like giving up sia. called urara just now and will be meeting her in school to ask her some ideas for my essay. hope that as a cute japanese girl, she will be able to provide me with her thots of kawaii and also her experience with reading manga.

this week onwards, i will get busy liao cos essay is due 2 weeks later and then the following week will be my other 2 assignment due on tuesday and thursday. video assignment will continue to work this weekend and the indesign assignment, i only done the template and still dun have the images yet. will be putting the texts in class according to the tutor.

well... i guess is time to work hard liao...

mcdonald's (mac-kers)

have been craving and eating mac. dunno why, just feel like eating. last year think only eaten a few times but this year i seem to keep eating this few weeks. also had been drinking coke cos is reather cheap, normally we will like buy a box, either 18, 24 or 30 depend on which one got sales. besides those 2, also got eat ice cream. had been eating ice cream tho the weather is rather cold but just cant stop eating. er... still got what ah... bought some chocolates also tho i not the kind of person who will eat chocolate. since sales then just buy to eat lor cos sometimes mouth will feel itchy one mah. have been eating non-stop for this few weeks not sure if is because weather becoming colder so will like eat cos gets hungry very fast.

been watching big brother everyday and eating chips at the same time (eating again). not say i like to watch tv or what, just that the time happened to be my dinner time and so will on the tv and watch lor. quite interesting to see a group of people being put into a house and lived together for a few months and have the housemates being eliminated every week, leaving the final housemate being the winner. like friday night live cos can see the housemates involved in different kind of games making a fool out of themselves.

semester finishing soon, now will to start to think of what to do during the holiday and also to prepare for next semester liao. hopefully i can finish all my assignments in time...

私の炊き込みご飯 (my takikomi gohan)

"Takikomi gohan (炊き込みご飯) is a Japanese rice dish seasoned with soy sauce and boiled with various ingredients."

long time never post images of food liao. this is takikomi gohan until now i still dunno what is the meaning. asked hitomi before and according to her explanation was "cooked rice". but think urara told me is like rice with the ingredient cooked together. only ate takikomi gohan last year cos hitomi was the one cooking my dinner. quite like the taste cos when i looked at it, my first impression was it taste like 油饭 or 糯米饭 and i sort of like it very much. did asked her to teach me but then she din have the time to teach me but then she told me roughly how to cook. but then think i failed at the first time cos i added in too much water and so everything was very watery.

think the takikomi gohan suits ne very well cos is very simple to prepare and not too bad to eat. just simply choose the ingredients and then cooked together with the rice in the rice cooker. the most important thing is the spices to add in during cooking, which include sake, mirin, soya sause and dashi. of course the proportion of each is according to each and individual's preference. other than those can still add like salt, pepper or others, 自由发挥.

but think i really hope to see how hitomi cook cos i feel that her cooking is more nice as in more artistic. she always like to make the dishes nice nice tho it will only be nice for a while but she still spent the effort to do it. however the biggest irony is that she dun like to cook and yet her food is so nice lor... i cant even cook something good sia...
