I went to the "Pameran Perkahwinan" or " Wedding Expo" on Sat.
Truthfully, I was going to pay bills and buy some essential stuff for my house, however, the pay check is still...missing...in...actionn... huaaaaa. T_T
So, me and my housemate *NEW!* went to here, its lovely!
Enjoy d pics for self explanatory!
*Boss just called, telling me that there's a glitch in the banking system. Duh... I want my hard earned moneyyyy :(
Oh well..
The Royal Johor Brew. Nice aromatic smell and very herbs-like drink. Nice, but since I'm not herbs-lover, so.....
I love the flowers, and the white curtain!
What is this flower? Very cute! *bunga tipu taw*
Indian's wedding dais? Looks nice and handsome guy there... :P
I think this is the trend now, no? White and greenery and flowersss
I love feathers. Miow!
Cute round flowers!
The cake... But I like the flowers more. The cake looks..plastic-y? Am not sure, but I want a delish looking cake! :)
I saw this kitkat rack in a supermarket. They throw it away. I took it. I could put my books here after bit of tidy up.. I was on my way back. I saw people throwing away rattan chair. I took it too. Thinking with a lil bit o paint, a bit of scrub, this could look brand new. Teehee. I need to save, therefore, I'll use whatever I can find as a substitute. I don't to buy lounge chairs n book rack nemore, right? :D
I entered a contest as was tagged by reneemeow, and was one of the last contestant!
Today is the day the announce the winner, and I've checked the 3rd(renee) and 2nd(kasut pink) then when I went back, I forgot all about it!
I was going to blog about something I'm sooooooo blooooody frustrated about, when something catches my eyes.
3 doors down- here without you
And I was like, hey my song...nice..Then I look back and said, HEY MY SONG WINS!!
*my friend thought I was going crazy from stress :P *
An exec of mine just came by to give us tealeaf of blackcurrant salone tea. Its very fragrant but blandd. We have to put in more sugar. But overall its nicee. :)
Mom n dad are backkk. And these are just few of the souveniers for me. Teehee. Mostly picture here are chocs and key chains. I also got two cardigans, two necklace, two of each chocs. Teehee. Syiok!
Remember I wrote some DIY I wanna do over the week, in here? Well, I did it, but I totally forgot to blog it out.
Things u need:
Corn starch
water
balloons
any kind of strings
To do:
Cook the corn starch with water, I just pour these two, so I have no idea how many this, how many that, later I'll try again and let u guys know. Next, when the corn starch and water has mixed well and looks translucent (like how the glue when we were younger, much much younger), wait until its cool off. Blow some balloons:
*excuse the white tupperware, it loves to interframe*
With the balloons in one hand and a string in one hand, twist the strings around the balloons until desired shape. I didn't twist mine tight enough, so when I slab on the corn starch mixture, it unravel. Sobs. Next, slab on some corn starch onto the strings, and this will be veryyy messyyy. Next, hang it to dry.
Hanging balloons~
Closed up
After that, pop the balloons and take it out from any holes.
It will looks so pretty and dreamy group together. But I didn't take the pix. Later, guys. I have 30+ more to make! XD
So my friend text me the other day how she made carbonara taste weird. And for me to put in the recipe in the blog. Yesterday I cooked bolognese, not carbonara, but you can try this too, babe! :)
For meatballs:
0.5kg mince meat
4 slices bread
2 eggs
a pinch of salt
a pinch of pepper
half an onion
3 garlic
1 solivite (milk)
Since I don't drink milk, so I use solivite as substitute, u guys can go ahead and use milk. :)
Soak the bread with milk (solivite), in another bowl, crack the eggs, and stir the eggs until the whites and yellow mixed together well. Pour the eggs into bread, crumble the bread with hand *sounds gross, but u have to do it for much more consistent result, and don't forget to wash your hand!* add in salt and pepper, and onions and garlic. For onion and garlic, make sure to cut it really small, and minced it or else it will fall off and makes holes in your meatballs. Lastly add in meat, and mix it in with your hand and divide the meat mix into small meatballs. Fry around 5-10minutes, and put it on paper towel to sponge off any excess oil from the meatballs.
The *sort of* round meatballs
Frying the meatballs
Next, the spaghetti and the sauce.
Spaghetti
Any spaghetti of your choice
A dash of salt
a lil bit butter/margarine
water
Heat water, with salt, and when the water hit boiling point, put in the spaghetti and cooked according to instruction. After fully cooked, drain excess water and put in a lil bit of butter or margarine so that the stands doesn't stick to each other, and smells heaven. :)
The sauce:
Whatever fall off from the meatball that you cooked just now
Sauce ( I use Prego. Too lazy to do the sauce from scratch)
half an onions and 3 garlic
pepper
1 egg
oil
1/4 water in the same Prego tin
Heat oil, pour in minced garlic and onions, stir until fragrant, put in extra minced meat, after turning brown, put in the sauce. Stir in water until mixed both water and sauce. Crack an egg. Stir until the egg is thoroughly cooked in the sauce, lastly put in the meatball in, so that the sauce seep in the meatballs.
The Prego sauce I use
The cooked sauce
The spaghetti bolognese with meatballs and with cheese.

Our song. Its not hard to chose, isn't it? But for us with different music taste
*her-any upbeat, pop, mellow, and any songs that catch her attention,
him-country, old school, songs that she never listen to*
So to chose one song, and one song only, its a bit difficult, especially when I think of d song is soooo sweett, and he will think it as muchy, yucky, and so on.
Get what I mean?
But since we were together, we have been *sort of* inseparable as where ever I go, he will be right there, supporting me from far, yet always so near.
Therefore, in choosing our song, is probably when we are away, then we feel this.
The song is by 3 doors down, here without you.
Yes. Its not overall cheesy, or over the top.
Only the feelings that he's saying he is missing her, a lot, when she's not around.
That, is our song.
I smiled when he put this as my ringtone, and he sings this to me when he's at home, as lullaby for me.
*tears*
And this GA certainly brings back the memory of yesteryears, when we are apart, even for a few months. :)
Here's the vid. do enjoy it!
aw....
Simple vid, simple lyric, but meaningful to the boot y'all!
And here's the lyric::
A hundred days had made me older
since the last time that I've saw your pretty face
A thousand lights had made me colder and I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles had separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me
The miles just keep rollin
as the people either way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
Everything I know,
and anywhere I go
it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls,
when it’s all said and done
it get hard but it won’t take away my love
I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me
