I didn't have the time to decorate my room the way i want it to be since i got back just before term started. So i did it today. With whatever materials I have, I made a couple of changes.And i'm glad that my room is neat yet messy, just the way i want it to be.
Got to continue with my "deep inguinal ring of the bitch" assignment tomorrow. Yesh i will. i miss bustling big cities.
p.s. that black kitty sneaked in secretly from the gate. He used the path like the way we do.
Have been so busy the whole of yesterday that i pretty much just watch tv drama the whole of today. But i did my laundry too.
Aiko found mr hedgehog lying on the pavement, with injury to his right hock, while waiting for us to pick her up. So she picked him up and left him in a box with some bits of sultana biscuits. Mr Hedgehog loved it and helped himself to some. We brought Mr hedgehog together with us and he was left in my room. Aiko held him while i cleaned his wound with antiseptic. Mr hedgehog hasn't showered for ages, just like any wild homeless souls. He stank up my room a little.
We had a scrumptious dinner of inarizushi(Aiko's dish), spicy eggplant, silverbeet and egg(both from yang), vietnamese spring roll(me!) as well as a really satisfying cheese cake (YASU!) to round it all up. The cheesecake is just like the one you get from papa beard! Then we watched uptown girl. Tomo fell asleep on the couch( IMagine having to be on your toes for 3 weeks!!!) and Yang disliked the show( since it's a chick flick). I still love it despite having watched it for at least 3 times.
At around 11, Mr hedgehog and Aiko were driven home by Yang, with Yasu and me in the backseat. Thank you everyone for bearing with my idiosyncrasies as well as not being afraid to show yours.(hehe)
P.S. I want to visit disneyland again!!!NOW!!!

Thank you thank you sam i am.
The buns looked okie not perfect. But the "too-watery" chocolate icing makes them look worse than before!!!!!!!!!! EEK!!!! I'll make perfect ones next time. I feel so domesticated, just like the city mouse being trained to be like a hamster. I don't mind doing stuff like these once in a while but i'm still a city mouse.
I got new tools for anatomy dissection. They cost me a little and hopefully i can use them for a while.
Yesterday was merlion's club eater egg hunt. Yasu , Yang, Felicia and me bagged 21 easter eggs and went supermarket shopping afterwards. We took Aiko along too. Everyone was grabbing whatever items available because no shops should be opened on good friday. That's NZ for you. But we couldn't get everything that was on our list. Bed time was really late since we only got back at 12ish.(Aiko invited us to have tea at her place) And surprise surprise! I got up at 230pm! What an unhealthy hour! I had this weird and scary nightmare and i couldn't drag myself out of it. There's this character in my dream that has a double identity. He was actually a combination of 2 person i know in real-life. EEKS! I hate dreams.
I made myself a late lunch of silverbeet omelette on toast, 2 sausages, milky coffee and yoghurt. Then i did some cleaning up/laundry and am now waiting for my dough to rise. I'm making bread!!!! WHEEEE! Have always wanted to make buns like those in "Helen the Baby Fox". Hope they turn out well.
Yep many things have been happening ever since the last time i blogged. Too many for me to recall or write. Somehow I'm having more extracurricular activities this semester but i'm also studying more. Oxymoronic isn't it? That gives me less time to blog or surf the web but i'm not losing much anyway. Now i have a much clearer view of my path ahead, not just studying blindly and aimlessly. Somehow having a goal makes studying so much easier as well. Guess i'm really goal-oriented.
I'm proud to say that I have been preparing lunches and dinners for myself and have made hotcakes, pizzas and baked pastas for friends to enjoy. Angeline dislikes cooking but don't mind cooking for friends as long as they don't complain too much.hehe. Cooking makes me smell bad and i had to wash my clothes more often. BWAHAHAHA! That's the main deterrent. Not forgetting the washing up too.
Friday's dinner was for my ex-hallmates. Being a host was hard but Yasu and Yang were great help. Everyone was surprised that i cooked. And because it's Azusa's birthday on tuesday, Meaghan baked a chocolate blackberry cake for dessert. :)
Toshi is leaving soon and he invited us to his BBQ party this afternoon. I haven't had meat for ages and i had them today. They were yummy and special for someone who's almost vegetarian. I'm not a staunch non-meateater and i hate to be picky when people made the effort to cook for me.Toshi made tea for us at the end. It was pretty diluted but tasty all the same. People are coming and leaving so quickly!!! EEK!!!!! While i was at Toshi's homestay (Yang's/Ibrahim's ex-homestay as well), i spotted a photo with me in it on the noticeboard!! It was taken at the airport when Ibrahim was leaving for home and we were sending him off. It seems ages ago even though it isn't. I wonder how many other photos have been taken without me seeing them as well as remembering them. I would sure like to see them all. It's kind of amazing to know that you are "documented" and kept as memories by others. Am i thinking too deeply? BWAHAHA! But don't you feel special just to know that?
I'm so tanned now due to my daily biking, jogging as well as frisbee. I need sleep but i don't seem to be yearning for them. I made darumas for Yang, Yasu and myself one night using polymer clay from last year's lab. And i made a wish.
We had a mini dinner party on friday and thought the pizzas Aiko made were simple and nice. Yang woke up on Saturday and asked of i would like to have Domino's since they were having a good deal.($5.90 for one) He was bouncing up and down. He told Yasu about having pizzas and she bounced while doing the 'thumbs up'. we are like a dysfunctional family.
But we ended up making gourmet pizzas (price of 1 is almost the same as buying 1). We had feta cheese, salmon and spinach pizzza, cream cheese, spinach, egg and salmon pizza, 'toni pepperoni' and BBQ chicken pizza. We were surprised they all tasted different.MuAHAHA!
We made that ugly mochi today. And i bought that unusual leopard print gumboots to replace the one i lost. It costs only $7ish. I shall wear it for lab.
