Hi plurkers! Oops, i meant, hello people!! I realised that I haven't been blogging for awhile. This happens alot when im in love with other things that are more interesting than vox.:) I am not saying vox isn't good in fact it's a better blogging site compared to others. Vox is easy to use and best of all, not much restrictions on uploading stuffs! :) I am not ditching vox because Im constantly plurking.
Today, im introducing 2 things. Two very talented people. One with captivating voice another with magic fingers. The latter literally is 'strumming my pain with his fingers', because he is a young acoustic guitarist from Korea who wants to be a succesful guitarist when he grows up. Besides that, he also compose his own chords! MM, i love talented and original people. I wish i was this talented too. It's okay,i'll just stand by the side and drool with my 'green eyes'.
The former is a Malaysian songwriter who's recently recorded an album in LA and apparently she's taken under Jake Johnson! I love her 'vintage-y voice and very jazzy. Definitely a voice not to be missed and not to forget. And on top of all, she is very original compared to most youtube singers. I am kinda sick of cover singers.
Please enjoy. I am sure you guys would. Overall rating, 5 stars is not enough! :)
I made something simple for dinner today, fried egg and tomatoes aka 番茄炒蛋. I think that's like every asian kid's favourite dinner menu. :) Taste best if you served it with white rice but i ate it as it is.
I used 3 Roma tomatoes, 2 eggs. =) Dice ur tomatoes however shapes and sizes that you like. Heat up the slightess oil in your frying pan, put in ur tomatoes, add a pinch of salt and cook till it's soft. I guess it depends too, some people like the texture of a raw tomato, or some like it really soft and really cooked. Mine was almost raw but still soft and cooked, medium? hehe. On the other side, beat up 2 eggs, add in some salt to taste and a dash of sesame oil. Oh yea, i added a pinch of sugar and Mirin (japanese cooking sweet wine) too.=) Add in your eggs and stir till ur eggs are cooked. Add in some soy sauce if you like.
I had fun eating it. =)
The dinner I made today was a failure. I ended up throwing away my dinner, sorry God. My dinner was suppose to be something delicious to relive my childhood memories but it didn't turn out like what my granny and mummy used to make. I would say it smelled exactly like the ones I used to eat but the taste wise, it must have been the wholemeal flour i used instead of the white flour. Other than that, I do not have dried shrimps. -.-
Anyway, I also made some chocolate cranberries clusters today. It's still cooling at the rack at the kitchen.
I enjoyed melting the dark chocolate and it just smells so happy. Chocolate makes me happy. It requires the simplest ingredients that you can find from ur local supermarket.
Ingredients: cranberries, 200gm of melting chocolates[i chose dark for mine but of course, u can use any type of melting chocolates], add in any nuts you like: [almonds...i didn put any this time]
Use the double boiling method to melt your chocolate ie boil some water in ur sauce pan, on top of it you put a glass bowl that is heat resistance, put in the blocks of chocolate and watch it melt!! It's a fun process. :)
once it's fully melted, let it cool awhile and stir in the rest of the ingredients. Scoop out ur mixture with your spoon and drop it on cookie sheet or baking sheet. :) You can be creative about this and experiment all sorts of ingredients. I think Rice Pops will be quite nice in this creation too. =)
Have fun making it!!
I usually have day offs on Thurs and Fris. I did my groceries twice this week, yesterday and today. Today i chose to walk. I had my ipod 3g, and off i went. It was really fun walking when you have Mozart playing in your ears especially the weather was just right for a walk: Cool and sunny. hehe.
Anyway, i bought a few things again today: Strawberry Cream Cheese[mmm,yum], bitter melon some say bittergourd, toilet stuffs, Vogue Mag, cranberries and dried fruits.
As im typing, I am also watching the Pope on national tv. I felt a sudden peacefulness by just watching him speak. It must be being around him 'live' in Sydney. I would have gone to see him but i would actually faint on the spot.
Second issue, do you like my new layout? I don't think it's perfect yet as im still kinda working on it. hehe, but i love the vintage effect i did with the photo editing software. =)
Cut short, I am going to the beach now, to run off my fats!!
Have a great weekend.
I m impressed!!!
1. Katee and Joshua doing some bollywood moves. Very authentic!! I can smell the MASALA[literally means mixed spices]..!!
2. I feel a pang of sadness watching this dance. Very moving
3. Baila baila- Sambaaaaaaaaaaaa babehhhhhhhhhhh
That title of mine above was actually a line from the motion picture : The Kite Runner. It has become my favourite quote and i had tears in my eyes when the actors said it.
The movie, just like the book, words can't just simply describe how i actually feel about this movie. I love the book and I love the movie too!! I wasn't disappointed as it turned out perfect!! And and i love how it potrays the relationship of fathers and sons, friendships, and best of all UNconDItional LOVE one can have for one another.
I love the soundtrack too. In fact, I'm listening to it now. 5 stars for everything. I would give more if i could.
Memorable quotes that i love:
For you, a thousand times over
Now there is a way to be good again...
Baba: Fuck the Russia!
I dream that my son will grow up to be a good person, a free person. I dream that someday you will return to revisit the land of our childhood. I dream that flowers will bloom in the streets again... and kites will fly in the skies!
Wall E's short film. Watch it if u want, but if u think this is a spoiler, then ignore this post. I havent watched Wall E but i thought it's okay to just watch this short film, which is damn hilarious
I cracked up laughing after seeing that lil kid's face. haha.Nice one from Pixar. =)
Bored and i wanna go out!!!
I am back on Polyvore again as i stumbled upon the site randomly and i realised that I was once very addicted to it. But of course, I am still very much addicted to it as it occupied half of my time..and I am suppose to submit an Outline of Argument to the Judge on Thursday..hmm, and i havent got a clue how to draft arguments. Anyway, wish me luck.
On a lighter note, I am still very in love with Sex and the city, in fact, i've never stopped loving it and had grew fonder. hehehee. I've made a few collages out of the characters and created some outfit that I thought would match the character well. I love the wardrobe i 'made' for Carrie Bradshaw. What do you think??
and please take a look at this new pink look i made, absolutely loving it...click click-->http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=2109862
