♥ Monday, December 06, 2010Haihai march post arrives~(Belated by nine months, well well...) - Nevertheless, this will be lengthy. Nearly 90 images, might need to wait for it load finish first before viewing. Contents are quite random - including some food, furniture award show/conference, steamboat for lg's bday, making special jelly for the sentosa bday (see previous post if you haven't), seletar pet resort, and other miscellaneous stuffs. - Let's get to the point. But long-windedness looms ahead.  I made the mistake of microwaving egg AGAIN zzz. Damn i keep forgetting that eggs will explode and thus have to clean up the mess inside the microwave oven (eggs splattered everywhere inside).  Jasmine's pan-fried dumplings (锅贴) on top and my deep-fried dumplings (炸饺子) at the bottom. Vinegar is love, LOLS. (It's quite interesting to note that most females love vinegar while most males hate vinegar.)  Development sketches on proposed SMU meeting point public installation, with that bodhi tree. John's on the left, mine centre and right.  Assessment panels.  It's quite amusing to me that the firecrackers are annoyed by themselves.  Daiso has cat/dog collars! I was asking the lady restocking there if they sell bird toys/accessories. No, they don't. =C Lovebird, just like other parrots, is highly hyperactive and needs stuff to play with. Pet's lover centre sells overpriced stuffs though. At least 8bucks for bird toys consisting of some simple wooden blocks, wooden beads and ropes, walao expensive eh for something i think i can make myself.  Bird already flew away since some months ago.  Lovebirds generally love to eat millets. And also, the whole millets sold at pet's lover centre is like around 6bucks (or somewhere there i forgot the price) for only about 5 stalks. Wth, that's crazy price. My father bought one huge packet of whole millets (at least over 10 stalks, which can last birdie for at least 2 months) at a neighbourhood bird shop for only 2 bucks! -  I can haz leaf! It's really very rare to find leaf on an apple in a supermarket.  One of my favourite food ever. California temaki~ I'm very picky about it too, and it cannot contain imitation crabstick and tamagoyaki (sweet egg omelette).  Always very yum for my liking.  I generally do not like to consume chili sauce (not because i cannot take the spiciness, but i think it covers the original taste in an unappreciative way). However, there's one particular chili sauce which i really really like. The oyster omelette's chili sauce - tangy-sour ftw. And btw i don't like my oyster omelette to be fried "spicy" too, i only like that sourish chili sauce.  Bird happily chewing some wire bit found on the floor. -  Yummy-looking strawberry smoothie (forget the ingredients used already, cus every time i make it, there will be slight alterations to the recipe depending on the availability of items).  The following day is lg's bday, i found it on the ntuc shelf and decided to make this oreo no-bake "cake".  You can see the layers from the side. And some dripped on the countertop surface too.  I think that it was actually too sweet for my tastebuds. And it was not solid enough for travelling after removing from the fridge.  Previous lovebird on the left, current (as of march 2010, not dec 2010) lovebird on the right. Both flew away due to loose security, LOLS. You can see the differences - one looks quiet but sly, the other looks dimwitted but cheerful. - International furniture fair singapore 2010 cum 27th asean furniture show.  Expo.  There was this perpetual extremely bright/blur spot on top, and we thought that it was the natural lighting being too strong.  Until we figured out that there is a very obvious oil mark on the camera lens. Wiping it off, it totally solved the problem. -__________-  Tags on lanyards.  It is an honour that we took a photograph with some chinese chairman.  Okie lar, it's actually just a schoolmate from the next-door class who overdressed with expensive-looking matching suit. LOLS.  There's naoto fukasawa as an invited speaker (can't see in the photograph anyway), he's a very famous japanese designer (lols lots of worshippers cus he's really a genius).  From left: me, yanni, jasmine and meiqi.  Some stairwell.  LOLS when we saw the refreshments, jasmine says she don't drink wine, and if there were there other options. But the brown tea-colour liquid on the left seriously don't look like red wine. And white wine is never clear and transparent like the liquid on the right, wine wines are normally yellowish. Well, they are actually coke and sprite, ha ha. Knew that they will never have high budget to provide free wines anyway.  The complementary brownie cube is cold, hard, dry and all the what's-nots.  Walking out of expo. - And heading to meet lg for steamboat yay. The thing about me and lg is that: we have totally opposite likings (although we think similarly, thankfully). Whatever things i love, he hates. Whatever stuffs he loves, i hate absolutely. So what i'm trying to say is, when we have steamboats, my food is "my food" and his food is "his food" cus we don't like each other's food. LOLS.  Pink texts indicate "my food", blue texts indicate "his food" and green texts indicate "sharing food".  I like seafood a lot and rarely eat meat (except for livers). He loves meat a lot, but he don't really eat seafood.  Yellow watermelon and chocolate ice cream for dessert. LOLS it's amazing i ate three slices of yellow watermelon, okie lar that's because i really really like yellow watermelons (i don't have love for red watermelon though, told you i am picky). Yellow ones really taste different from the red ones what. Yellows are significantly sweeter (reds' sweetness seem to have the diluted-in-water taste). But don't know why yellows are much rarer. =c - I saw an interesting recipe online and made modifications to it. This dessert is brought to sentosa for the duo's bday. I added chopped strawberries because i thought the originally recipe is too plain. I used instant yellow agar powder instead (for convenience), but to my disappointment the agar has no fruity flavour taste, to the extent of being tasteless (the instructions on the pack did not tell me to add sugar, so i assumed it has already been flavoured). Thankfully the strawberries have taste. -_-  Prepare empty orange shells, and fill with chopped strawberries.  Then fill up with agar powder dissolved in boiling water.  Cool, chill inside the fridge and cut into wedges.  Close-up so pretty heehee.  Pack into container.  How it looks from the bottom. I slipped and fell on my butt while walking to school, it was a rainy day. And the orange wedges inside the container got messed up zzz. And then it was a happy day out.   -  Yupi hotdog is way larger than the burger.  Hole for flower.  LOLS i saw two abandoned soft toys at the cc gate.  Dozens of ants running at high speed in a trail, at a bus stop. Eee yer. Causes mental disturbance while i'm sitting there.  Peanut butter with grape stripes is yummy. -  A very grumpy lg accompanied me to visit the animal resort in seletar farmway, especially when the nearest bus stop is very far and walking ulu long distance in the heavy rain (sharing a pathetic umbrella which didn't fail to get us wet) doesn't help either.  Can't see any tall buildings here.  Poor horse has no stable to shelter itself from the rain. =CCC  I understand that birds on the other hand, love to play with water (really~ from my experience of pet birds and observation of wild birds). Hence, these crown cranes did not hide from the rain although shelter is available to them.  Close-up of the funky hairstyle LOLS, it walked past me.  Goose everywhere, drinking and playing with water in the rain.  Close-up of a goose. Webbed feet! (There were white ducks as well in an enclosed cage but i didn't take a picture of them.)  The irony is that the baby-bunnies are either black or white (while the mother is brown). -_- Sorry i really don't quite know how the fur colours in animal works, would be glad if anybody enlightens me on it.  This rabbit sure has a firm ass, and it is as huge as a typical stray cat. -.-  Some pet bird! Is is budgerigar parrot? I am not very sure of the breed, sorry.  Ha ha ha sulphur-crested cockatoo parrot!  We were observing the huge peacock at the top which looks like the king here, and this chicken kept following me LOLS.  This is the big peacock drinking muddy water lols.  Parting shot. The horse doesn't look as sociable as the other animals (oh did i mention there were two goats which came out to see us after the rain stopped), and it appears to have a bandaged leg. We left and took a bus which looped deep into the seletar camp area.  Passed by seletar airport! Planes with direct flights to tioman and redang (the perfect island getaways =D) but too bad we don't have enough money to go on a vacation together.  Close-up of the passenger plane. -  I now then realised that the advertisement stickers covering the buses are cut manually.  Me and yanni visited defu industrial area to look for "found" materials for furniture.  Piles of shred metal.  If you have watched wall-e, this will remind you of the huge trash cubes that is made from compressed trash (although this is the drink cans version).  They are even taller than me when two are stacked. (And the air does smell sourish with some flies fluttering around, should be able to tell from the liquid flowing on the road.)  Recycling metals. We were so freaking hungry and desperate to find any food. After much walking, we finally found a coffeeshop at hougang estate. We both ordered fried kwaytiao. She wants extra de, $4 spicy, while i had $3 non-spicy. However, the taste wasn't good. It was oily, not fragrance, not tasty at all, just like eating cooked starch. (LOLS hungry people will find any awful food nice, but imagine we were extremely hungry but the food was really making us lose appetite.) I managed to finish mine with much effort (cus it's a habit i always clear the food on my plate, if possible), whereas she didn't finish it cus it tasted yucky.  Then the uncle of the stall came out to smoke. On his way back, he knocked on our table and said, "Tell the lady if she can't take spicy food, then don't order spicy food lar!" And he walked off. -__- Btw, it's not that it is too spicy. It's simply that the kwaytiao didn't taste good. We were already very kind not to talk back to him that it's the food that taste awful, not because its spicy.  LOLS we were grudgeful that the uncle was rude to us for accusing something that is not true. When customers can't finish your food and you come out to scold them, how can like that?! -  Furry bird hanging on its favourite cable.  My tomato sketch with a lot of eraser dust.  Bought new socks yay. Cus my socks always get loose or holey.  I then realised that citrus sox now produces socks that are larger in size compared to a year back then (it was fine last time). And now probably to cater to the male market (since their socks are always freesized), they are selling bigger socks which are too long for me LOLS.  LOLS like cheat money one. So little, might as well buy the skittles from shops - even more worthwhile and probably fresher.  Pipes to branches illustration. Copic markers used. Anyhow. -  It's surprising. Seasons soya bean drink has more sugar content that soya bean extract - you have been warned.  Lg regretted his soupy tasteless pasta at pastamania, while my potato gratin is dry.  Close-up of starchy potato.  Slide-and-park retail doors are nice and fascinating.  Breads. - Lecturer brought bags of old toys for our "found items" furniture. I hence took a lot of black toy car wheels for my finished table (will be shown in may post). Messing with these leftover toys below, which cannot be unscrewed into smaller parts or used as a whole (cus we have pure monochromic schemes).  Heroes' gathering 武林大会. The nemo's looking retarded LOLS.  Red doremon! (I don't know why, it looked like it's wearing a white panty. -__-)  Traditional vehicles.  Overwhelmed 走火入魔.  Very... Thirsty...  Pink's for yanni and blue's for me. Once again, yellow watermelon is nice heehee.  Raw fish is yumyum. - From today onwards, i will be very busy and no rest day for this month. =C Busy with working 7 days each week, and elective class in the morning. April post has furniture progress, more smoothies, lizard/rat i saw and pictures i like! LOLS taken with webcam in class ha ha. Okie byebye hope to be back here soon. Love you, 4th anniversary in around one month's time. =D 3:22 am
