And it's a retatively short post.

05jul2010, picnic at ecp
(again zzz lols) with lg.
I had never flew a kite before, for the past twenty years. So we decided to fly kite lols.
See, the photograph i took is so nice, at least can see lg's silhouette as well as the kite
(albeit vaguely).
Mine cannot see kite though.
Noms.
There was pita bread with egg mayo.
Cocktail chicken sausages, topped with honey mustard.
=)
On the bus back.
Stupidly, my favourite white slippers of more than one year broke.
Had to drag to
cheers to buy a pair of temporary slippers.
The pair of new cheapo slippers hurts so bad because it pokes the skin at the T section. Fail.
=)
We saw this cat loitering at the void deck during wee hours.
Fur so thick, the breed is definitely not your typical stray cat. And looks well-fed too. Highly likely is somebody's pet.

06jul2010, the next day at yanni's place for steamboat dinner.
That was our first steamboat gathering. After that, we became very seasoned for more to come, especially with better food, soup and skills. LOLS.
Hua cutting sotong, i wasn't around yet.
I wasn't on time so they had to wait for me to come to start. But i bought good stuffs like mussels, prawns, cockles, baby corns, etc and brought the chilli sauce, holed-ladles and blah.
Does that redeem myself? Sorry lar LOLS almost can't live without seafood.
The spread.
This is a staged shot to show that we waited freaking long and the soup refused to boil. Lols.
So we checked the pot.
I pressed the "hot pot" button.
Then yanni said, "You think touch-screen one ah?"
LOLS. But my induction cookers at home all really can press the buttons mah...
Okie so it's manual. Need to slide the ledge at the bottom.
How would i have known? *grumble grumble*
Looks like she was either laughing at a good joke or got scalded by hot soup. LOLS.
LOLS they reuse the candles-spam idea for my cake.
Nope, i did not poke the candle on the
maraschino cherry. It is done by the one who always play with food. Ha ha.
And the best part is, i immediately saw the price tag on the plastic wrapper
(which goes around the parameter for the triangular slice), directly facing me. LOLS.
=)
Shy girl refused to stand beside the guy she invited
(to eat our leftovers ha ha) zzzzz.
I highly suspect that yn was tiptoe-ing, ha ha ha.
Confirm. Double confirm.

One of the gifts from zhili aka old friend. A hand-made felt pouch.
It was supposed to be inspired from my lost cat, as shown below.
(Of course the smiley face is not real...)Wah so much the effort sia. Though i never really use it, because i don't want it get dirty or spoilt.
So sad i dropped it somewhere. I can no longer buy it anymore. Tried to look for another cat, but then all those selling outside are somehow damn ugly not cute at all, hence did not manage to get a new one of my liking.

Okie yay finish.
=D

June 2010
part 3 of 3.
Featuring meiqi's picnic birthday and our preparations, with other ad-hoc miscellaneous stuffs in june
(more food whee). This is not going to be that short. And somewhat 80% chance that will make you smile LOLS.

22jun2010, three days before the day.
Yanni
(aka yn, pink-lover, snow white or jasmine calls her nanny), jasmine
(aka jiak si mi/eat what, green tea or yn calls her tea), kw
(aka wee, cat-lover or i say the free bodyguard cum bellboy) and i went to tampines giant to get stuffs for the picnic at marina barrage for meiqi's belated birthday.
Meiqi is also known as machi or domokun-lover. We somehow always celebrate birthdays belated because we are forever very busy people zzzzz.
Anyway in the end, it was quite malu by the time we checked out at the cashier, because we bought less than 5 items with that big trolley. LOLS. Thought would be better to buy the fresh food at a closer date. We did buy a fake champagne for the fun of it though, since we had no budget for a real one.
-
24jun2010, the day before the day.
Yn, green tea and i were making sweets over at yn's place.
Melting chocolate.
(I know cooking-purists always like to say it's wrong to heat directly, one should use a double-broiler instead, blah blah. But i like my simplistic way mah, it's convenient and hassle-free.)
Chocolate-coat strawberries and marshmallows ftw!
See, they are so happy, loving it... Ha ha ha.
I'm going to repeatedly use the smiley faces tactic throughout this whole post, sorry if you're allergic to it. Can't help it.
Yn loves doing things that allows her to get scoldings from us, LOLS.
She dipped the food only at the tips because she said they look more photogenic (or dreamier/prettier-looking)... We want
chocolate-coated sberries and marshmallows, not
accidentally-stained sberries and marshmallows. Meow.
The word "meow" used in the previous paragraph is expected to be of the same meaning as "period", albeit more act cute.
Your auntie eating chicken rice.
Happily in fridge, whee!

25jun2010, morning and early afternoon of the day.
Jasmine and i were doing the final preparations over at my place.
This is what jasmine did to my sink! *%&$#&*#$$X*%!
Erm no lar okie not exactly, i did some contributions too lols.
Anyway, we cleaned up real fast. Sandwich wor.
Checking if the potatoes are ready.
I don't have a bread knife, so we could not cut the baguette nicely in thin slices.
Shaped sandwiches, teehee.
I found an efficient way to prepare the diced egg bits for egg mayo - using egg slicer.
Although this could be further improved by slicing through the z-axis.
But then after the second cut, it would be a bit too chui to slice a third time anyway lo.
(You would surely know what i mean by z/y/z-axis if you ever used a 3d software or something.)
This method creates neat egg bits wor.
It's fail-proof and guaranteed yummy! Mayonnaise ftw.
Anyway, this is one of our end products: cute-shaped sandwiches with choices of egg mayo, ham, cheese or peanut butter filling.
Another product, baguette slices with tuna-mayo and shrimp.
And also, the potato salad i always make. Because it's also fail-proof and yummy. This shows the egg, potato chunks and shrimps. Haven't add the mayo, black pepper powder and ham slices yet.

25jun2010, late afternoon of the day.
Yn, jasmine, meiqi and i had a picnic at marina barrage.
Codename: teaparty!
Sky full of kites.
Setting up our headquarters.
Foodies.
It's a
teaparty, so must have tea. =D
Cups are diy-ed by ourselves.
Yn was fascinated by the cute sandwiches.
My food picks, the animal series lols.
Birthday girl gets to pop the fake champagne.
Anyway the cork flew out all the way over the ledge, don't know where it landed downstairs ha ha.
Cheers!
Honestly, it did not quite taste good.
Stomp-worthy photograph. Mmm.
Sunset already yay.
Not enough lighting around ha ha. But gives the nice ambiance.
Candle-spammed birthday muffin. Because two big sticks are really boring mmm.
The aftermath: wax-spammed muffin.
The present. The domokun collectible is really nowhere near cheap. Due to the fact that this is a limited edition, and green is very rare.
Cake-cutting.
Used leftover candles and made romantic lighting lols.
Was busy killing ants too.
We had a neighbour picnic family setting up next to us, and they brought a chihuahua with them.
The dog was running all over, and it came to us. =D
But without flash, the lighting was so bad that i looked like i was holding a ball, or some white cat (due to the pointy ears).
It's
belly cute. Jasmine's turn to hold it. She has a half-chihuahua at her granny's place too.
After roaming around, the chihuahua eventually decided that it shall rest right in front of me, leaning on my legs.
Its owners said the dog probably likes me, ha ha felt so honoured because i felt appreciated. Normally dogs don't appreciate me, maybe because i smell more fishy (appeals to cats more ha ha okie kidding).
Anyway we were busy focusing our attention at the dog. Our romantic candle-cup caught fire.
-____- Fail. And we panicked zzz although managed to extinguish the fire, leaving a hole on the floor mat.
Typical marina barrage's night lighting effect at the centre.

Okie that's it. Now continue the last part of june 2010. Won't be much, don't worry.
Frozen cp teriyaki salmon with rice.
Verdict? Food court's version definitely tastes better.
Saw some inexpensive blue cheese at the ntuc and decided to try for the sake of curiosity.
(It's exciting to explore the unknown, you know.)Okie, wouldn't consume blue cheese again.
It's like an angmoh's perspective at the asian durian.
Now it's an asian's perspective at the angmoh blue cheese.
It stinks horribly and it's awfully bitter. LOLS...
Walao mouldy cheese
siap siap one lo.
Pricey canned food.
But it's really yummeh yummeh.
Making ginger ale float is always a joy, watching the amazing mass of foam rising up after popping in a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Seriously, you can't get so much foam with coke, sprite or even root beer.
With zesty italian dressing. Homemade salad is always so yum, although the visuals may look messy. It just won't go wrong, especially with a selection of your favourite veggies and stuff.
Made salad again the next day, with the same dressing. Still yum lols cus i am always craving for black olives.
But sadly, ntuc don't stock up black olives every day, only once in a while you see them on the shelves.
Submissions for year two's interior major.
(Okie that was so freaking long ago.)-
Last bit.
Had a webcam session with lg on 20jun2010.
And i was yawning because it was in the middle of the night.
Wakao he drew me like that through msn's
handwrite zzz.
Okie luckily i find this image cute ha ha ha.
Very sad leh. I don't understand how come the latest version of windows live messenger does not have the
handwrite function. That sucks. What a pity.
And furthermore, i did not know that it was bundled up inside the
windows live essentials 2011 package that was scheduled for my
window updates.
Five days later, we were discussing about how come normally we can always differentiate a kitten from the adult feline so easily
(besides the size factor) just from the face itself.
What lg thinks...
I beg to differ. It's not about the sulking mouth i thought. Mmm.
This is what i feel...
It's about the eyes! Old cats have slanted, sly eyes that always seem to diao you
(they treat you as inferior it seems). On the other hand, kittens have big, round, watery, innocent-looking eyes that makes you go awww.
LOLS anyway we eventually agreed on the eyes theory.

Okie yay this was a cute post i thought. Next up should be my 20th bday in 2010. And then the other july stuffs. Then the august and so on.
Neckaching. Think next post should be up soon, because i wanted to catch the date as mention in the previous post.
Thanks for reading and night night.
