不怎样的心情

不怎样的心情是最糟糕，什么都不想做。

我会羡慕

今天去了恒隆广场办公楼参加 CPA seminar (需要上课维持我的 profession），刚好是下班时间，看着人家，都会莫名其妙的羡慕起来。有时，我会羡慕，没有工已不是单单没收入这样简单了。不知何时，自卑和自尊一点一点的累积。

我会羡慕友人有份好工，高薪，坐上经理或 controller 之类，虽然有血有汗，但我什么都不是，小小的师奶，洗衣烧饭。
我会羡慕友人有同事，多了生活圈子，还有人陪吃午饭。 我只在家里范围琢磨，电脑和 TV 是我的午饭良伴。
我会羡慕友人打扮花枝招展上班，sales 的时候去血拼。 我没借口买化妆品，sales 的时候，很多次看了想了都放回去，我不能说我不够衣上班，我不需要多几双上班鞋。
我会羡慕友人有上司，好表现，有赞赏，有被认同的自信。 当然，也有被骂的时候，也有 low morale。
我会羡慕友人有 meeting, 可以 brain storming，遇到工作困难，可以一一迎刃而解， 可以加强知识和人事经验，有那种 job 和 self satisfaction 的感觉。 我只能问到少爷，好不好吃？味道怎样？
我会羡慕友人有下属，可以领导，有权威。我只是家里的阿四。
我会羡慕友人说我恨不得放工回家休息，回家对我，已不是这样的感觉。
我会羡慕友人可以开开心心计划旅行，我都得靠大少爷点头拿钱，也不能过分要求。

我想很多人应该很想揍我。Pi Piak, 我帮你们打了我两巴掌。

Adventurous Kitchen

I've been very hardworking in the kitchen since I got back. Maybe it's a long rest after 3 weeks I didn't go into Kitchen (ha, I don't need to do housework too) or I just feel guilty to left my husband alone and eating outside for 3 weeks. :P I am not a good cook but definitely an adventurous chef. I like to try new things. Of cause, there will always risk that I need to throw away my food. But I am 打不死的小强.

First, Agar agar, yummy, I know it's a very simple dish but this is my first try though. I always just ask my mum to made for me whenever I feel like eating it. Sorry no mama in Shanghai. I was looking up and down for the pandan leaves. I tried Carrefour and Lotus but fruitlessly. My last hope was the Citishop as they are selling all the imported goods. Phew luckily I found it as you can see in my previous post and the mandarin name is quite funny - 露兜叶 as in "show stomach leaves"??!!?? I was trying to find the longan can or lychee can too. FYI, there aren't any in Shanghai, I tried most of the supermarkets. Boh huat, thus I have to use the mix fruits. The agar agar turns out to be quite good, not too sweat and the texture too. My testers said PASS !

The second is the Char Siew, ha, keng chao le, I saw this recipe in Ohbin's website and wanted to try. Finally, I saw a good belly strips in Lotus and decided to buy and try it. How is the taste? Well, I think the pork is too thick, should find a thinner as the pork smell is a bit heavy. Overall, Chew Chin said still acceptable. I also bought some small pork strips to marinade and still in the freezer, maybe the pork strips will be nicer. However, I couldn't find the 麦芽糖 thus I took honey as the substitution.

Lastly, my proud presentation of the "Bi Kuey" as in Rice Kiuh. My grandma used to make the best Bi Kuey in the world and only can find in the Chan's family. This is the home made dish. It's actually quite fattening and oily but the taste is so GOOD. Pardon me for the outlook of my bi kuey as I still can't get the perfect way to make it nice but the taste is there. The first row is the first attempt and it's look quite cacat. I can't get the ingredient stick together and once i put into the pan they separated. Thus, I had to call my aunt in Singapore and asked her what's wrong with that. She asked me to put more flour and drained the water. Finally, I got a better looking shape (as in the second row).

Ingredients : overnight rice, tapioca flour, dried prawns (虾米), peanuts, a bit of salt and pepper

Method :
1. Mix the overnight rice with tapioca flour (sufficient to cover most of the rice), dried prawns, salt and pepper. Spring a little bit of water to make it moist enough until it's sticky (not too much)
2. Roll the mixed ingredients into a ball then flatten it, put peanuts on top.
3. Heat the pan and oil. Put the flatten rice kuih into the pan and fry and turn it until golden brown. Don't fry too long as the rice will be harden.

豆沙包一个

Bravo Beh Kim ! You are CORRECT !

猜一猜

哈，猜一猜这是什么东东？

猜中我请小笼包。 不可以 google 啊！

郑重警告！！！

我再一次告诉你，这里没有李阿姨。
我也没有玩股票！！！！

不知所谓， 每天至少接了1通这样的电话，我已很客气了告诉他们，没有李阿姨，搬走了，很客气的告他们，我没有玩股票。但，他们还会问，为什么没玩股票呢。我真的，真的，要骂 KNS！！！　再来，老娘是不好惹的！！！！！

懊恼的金丝雀

大少爷说，我的金丝雀回巢了。之前在家无所事事，有人供养， 没有发胖，还瘦的呢，反而放生了三个星期，重了三公斤。这只雀应该是不适合待在家里, 还是出去飞翔好。 可是爱美的金丝雀要瘦，所以懊恼，懊恼，很懊恼。

出游记

我有一班特别好玩的朋友，每年都计划去旅行，不怕你没人陪，只怕你没时间，你没钱。这班 认识超过20年的朋友，什么性格，什么怪癖， 大约可以捉摸。 只是人老了，脾气很快暴躁， 火花也纷纷爆发，不过都不损友谊，还会加强彼此的了解。有相士说， 1978年的马，多数有点头风，有点神经志， 好玩，往往向外奔跑。 哈，这就是我们。 I miss you gals.. sobs sobs

Another round of blocking

Just heard from Chew Chin, China is blocking the facebook. Yeah, no blogger, no twitter, no wordpress and now NO FACEBOOK !!!!!! I really hope that by the time I got back, I still can access to facebook and blogger through the VPN.

Pray hard, pray very very hard.

Laptop KAPUT

Sobs, my laptop doesn't want to boot this morning. Luckily my aunt from Penang is in Singapore and will be back tomorrow. I have no choice to send back Penang for repairing. Cross my finger, I hope it can get it done by this Saturday and ask someone to bring back to KL for me on Sunday. The worst thing is I DIDN'T BACK UP MY STUFFFFFFFF... really kns!!!!

urghhhh!!!!!!

马不停的跑

我是CPS..... chao sim pu, 很会跑的 CSP。
