Home Sweet Home (1)

Finally my little home is ready…

After waiting for about 1 year plus, we are set to move into a place we truly call home. Renting is fine, yeah.. not too bad actually, but nothing beats having your own place, something you can truly call your own. No need to seek permission for any renovation, re-colouring or no one coming to your ‘home’ to check on stuff… really sucky, invading of privacy, yet understand that it is the landlords rights.. oh well.. its all gonna be behind us now.

Finally, with this little home, we can start growing some greens, plants, trees, flowers. Plan to do a little landscape at the courtyard. I never knew if i have a green thumb, guess we shall find out real soon eh.

Also, will have a complete and more spacious kitchen now, gonna learn more cooking, and baking too perhaps. Anyone willing to be my guinea pigs? hehehehe

Mostly, I cant wait to have my new wardrobe room Finally getting my clothes, shoes, bags and accesories organised.. sigh… simply heaven… i guess that also mean more shopping to fill up the room! hhehheehe.. hor sayang? hehehehehe…

Took the key this morning, and went for a house inspection. Thank god a friend gave some tips on what to look out for, believe it or not, found 15 things that needs to be looked into. Glad that the contractor was helpful (touch wood), so far… hope things turn out alright..

Sayang all set to unlock the doors, our 1st step into the new home.. :)

My 1st step into my new home..

So I’ve kinda forgotten about my blog.. :P

OPPSIEEEEEEEEE.. :P

Whats up lately? Well.. lets see.. been bz bz bz with work, and more wedding preparations. Been going CRAZEEEEEEEEE with doing my own e-invitations.. hehhehe. (Hope no one copies my idea this time.. :P , or maybe I shouldnt have blog it.. ah well… copycats are the best form of flattery right eh? )

And… what else..

Stupid haze is back… suffocating all of us slowing, making me tear up almost each time Im outside for too long.. argh..

Oh, went for the Sunrise Jazz… great stuff… had a lil fun.. lotsa booze, and one hell of a Fri Night. :

Another highlight for the past 2 weeks.. was the CHEALSE VS MSIA gameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!~~~~!!!!

Thanks to Vijay for the tickets, glad we got really good seats eh.. *wink *wink

There we just sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many people there.. was crazy!!!!!~~!!!~~!!!! Luckily, I was in an alright mood, so brave thru the sea of sweaty men, and enjoyed the match.

I pretty much had no idea what was going on most of the time, but Sayang was a great commentator, kept saying things la.. “shucks, Lampart is slugging.. you suck” and something like “of all the smurfs, I like Anelka best (i had no idea which one and why)” But I patiently sat thru the match, eating my kuaci (yes I snuck in food) and try to see those tiny blue smurfs running around chasing a ball (which looks like a guli where we sat).

Final score was Chealsea 2, Msia 0. I made sayang take me home bout 15 mins before the match ended cos I didnt wanna be caught in the jam again. Coming to the game was HELL!!!!!!!!!! Freaking JAMMED UP!!!!!!

Outside, with a burst of fresh air.. we began camwhoring..

Yea.. smurfies kinda suck.. but i do like blue colour… but there were no cute guys, and no one took off their shirt.. nothing to shout about.. sighhhh

Their reserve player…

Moi, the only female player… Im a smurfett!!! WoohooOO!!!!

And alsoooooooooo.. have been bz preparing for another photoshoot.. yes.. diet diet diet.. and more diet.. :(

So stressed out dieting that a huge ass pimple popped out 2 days ago.. and refuses to go away.. I hope they have really good make up artist.. arghhh. Went to Pretty In White to choose my white gown.. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!~~!! Photos were not really ‘flattering’ so just wait up for the photoshoot photos.. heheheh

Well, despite of dieting, got bored on Sunday and decided to try out a new dish. YAM RICE + Bak Kut Teh. A dear friend Sheryl did it, looked so good and tempting, decided to try it out myself.

BIG MISTAKE! It was a big disaster. :(

1st batch was so yucky. The yam was all soft and soggy after cooking in the rice pot, didnt even bother to take a pic of it.

2nd batch was this… Looks alright, but didnt taste that nice. Lack of someting, which I cant nail down on what.

Ingredients are: Diced Yam, chopped french beans, garlic, ‘he bi’ (small dried prawns), rice and dark soya sauce. I used brown rice.. (well cos im on this sucky diet.. :( )

As for the BKT, SO simple…

Dump a packet of BKT herbs, black mushrooms, straw mushrooms, fu chuk, bak kut and some red dates.

Somehow.. didnt taste like Klang BKT at all.. sighhh

Had a satisfying meal anywhere, was so hungry cooking. Thanks sayang for eating all of it.. MUACKSSSSSS
