YOOOHOOOO~~~I'm here to post the pictures i took during the 2 weeks holiday!!!
1)Sushi making!!!
First thing to start with is to shop for ingredients,seaweed,vinegar for the sushi rice,crabmeat,eggs,mayonnaise,tuna,cucumber,etc.My family and i went DAISO(a shop that sells most of the japanese stuff) and NTUC to shop for them....
Then,we went to my cousin's house and did before-making preparations like,geting the rice,crabmeat and eggs cooked,cutting the seaweed and cucumber.etc.It was damn fun in the beginning and we kept eating the rice and ingredients and the sushi that was made,cause they were tasted damn nice!Then,it became quite boring and tiring cause we eatb till we ran out of seaweed and we felt bloated.Then,again,we shopped for the seaweed and started doing them again.We kept ,making and making and we used ELEVEN CUPS(as in those cups that are used to scoop uncooked rice)of rice to make!!! We felt so damn relieved when we inally finished making them,cause we were scared that we can't finish using the ingredients...ahahahas..
BUT,for those who've tried the sushi,they said its good=)
First,getting all the ingredients together...
First few sushi that we did...it wasn't that "good-looking" cause its tough to cut rolls of sushi neatly and beautifully!ahahahs..
one of the sushi that i've cut!nice right...but wait,this is only the front view...let's see the back view...
UGLY right????ahahahaahsss.....this is what i mean by making the sushi first time...ahahahahaas...
Another type of sushi we made...this one looks nice..hahas..
AND FINALLY...
THE SUSHI'S DONE!!!
=)
2)Cookies making!!!
i went to one of my best friends(Adelene=)) house to make cookies!!!She prepared all the ingredients before i reached her house cause i was late...so sorry=(....Then,we started making!!!we made some first then we sent them for baking in the oven...13 mins later,they were done!Then,we tasted them.Well,as i said,beginners don't always get thing perfect during the first try.....but the cookies taste nice just that its too tough for the teeth..ahaahasss......but after a few tries,it succeed and we made BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS COOKIES!!We made four flavours,choco chips,marshmallow,nuts,and DARK CHOCO(THIS IS THE NICEST)!!!
First,getting the ingredients together..that's always the first step in making anything.
PEANUTS!
ROASTED ALMONDS!
Then,we have to sieve the flour...its not an easy job to do cause u have to get all the flour needed in to the bowl clean and quick.....and a spoon actually helped=)
The SIEVED flour.Its more thin and soft=)
while sieveing the flour,we had to mix the margarine/butter with sugar.After the sugar has totally melted in the margarine/butter,add in 2 eggs...and stir then again..and its quite gross when the eggs were just added...
this is what i mean!GROSS Right???
After that,we pour the flour into the mixed eggs,margarine/butter and sugar and mixed them together.
when we just mixed them together,they are still very watery....but the magic of stirring turned it into...
THIS!!!Its damn hard to stir it as it will become harder and harder as u stir...and i think you all can tell the different by seeing this 2 pictures..hahahs...
After stirring,we made doughs of different flavours for ur cookies!!
The marshmallow flavour!
Choco chips and nuts flavours!!
and last,
The DARK CHOCO FLAVOUR!!!For this,i stirred the dough with lot of scoops of cocoa powder and that's why the colour's so dark..hahas...Hmm,it might look gross but it taste real good after baked...ahahahs...
Then it was sent for baking..
While it was baking,the cookies expanded so much that it sticked together!Maybe because my friend added too much baking powder and we placed the cookies too close to one another...hahas
This is what i mean by sticking "together"...and the marshmallow actually melted when sent for baking and it looks gross!BUt and BUT its taste quite good and teh melted marshmallow tasted like corn flakes..ahahs..
Then after a few rounds of baking( caused we made too many and the oven can't bake them at a go)...
WE ARE DONE!!!
OH YA! and one thing i discovered that day on marshmallow...
IT TASTED DAMN GOOD WITH COCOA POWDER!!!AHAHAHAAHAHS...
And again,for those who ate my cookies,they said YUMMY except for one-.-'''
IT WAS A YUMMY DAY!!!hahahas...
=P
3)DRAWING lesson in school!!!
hmm....during that 2 days of drawing lesson,we did perspective drawing and gesture drawing...it was fun and effectively helps me in drawing..another reason that the leaturer demostrate on what to draw first before we started drawing...
And i actually became their model and the leaturer and my classmates drew me...the leaturer drew me until super fat and i wonder that's me or not...hahas..my friend actually did better then him..hahas..
A DRAWING OF ME BY RACHAEL!!!
And i drew my friend too!!!but,i drew her untill very ugly but actually she a pretty girl=)See!FUN lesson!!!(at least is MORE fun than YT's lesson!hahas)
=)
4)Celebration of my COUSIN's birthday!!!
Before the celebration,i cut some fruits!!!
NICE RIGHT???i think i have the flair to be a good wife...hahahs...
They got a Chocolate cream cake and its nice!!
"Happy birthday to you,
Happy brithday to you,
Happy birthday to you~
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!!"
After singing the birthday song,...
They cut the cake!!!
Then everybody were eating the cake...
My disgusting yet cute cousin(Jun wei).
My cute cousin(Jia wei) posing for me=)
then while eating...
my silly cousin was cam-whoring!hahas..he tried to "act man"...BUT...
HE'S BETTER IN "ACTING FEMININE"!!!....but it looks like of digusting..ahahas...
Oh ya,this is the birthday present for my cousins from their mother..
Its a Turtle that can be wore on hand..hahahs...POWER TURTLES???
and last,
THE CUTE BIRTHDAY BOYS!!!(Jia Wei and Jun Wei)

TODAY WAS FUN!!!My friend,Cathi the Meow,some other classmates from my class,and I went to play Basketball in school!It has been a while since cathi and I played basketball,so we were looking forward to the basketball session during the morning.The funny thing was, we didn't had any basketball with us but there's one in our classroom,so we decided to use that one.BUT,the thing is,the ball hasn't have enough air in it.STUPID sia!!But in the end we still used that ball cause we had no choice-.-'''
The weather was so nice and i took a picture of the sky whereby the sun is blocked by the clouds and there are actually patches of pink and purple lights.It was so nice!
ok,for this picture,the pink and purple patches can't really be seen.hahas.
Then,we had a few basketball matches with Cathi's friend's friends.They are funny people!hahas...And one of the guys looks like my couins,personality wise,humourous.hahas.There was one who somehow looked sissy to me=X..hahas...Then,there's another one who can play very well,he can get rebounds easily and can shoot very accurately...moreover,his so muscular...hahas...got six pacs!hahas!And there's many others which i dun feel like mentioning because there were too many.heex.
After the tiring yet SUPER DUPER FUN basketball session,we went to eat with them(there was only 4 out of the many people left)at mac.It was fun chatting with them.Naughty cathi don't wanna eat anything but we forced her to(hahas)cause she only drank chocolate milk and ate ice kacang for the whole day.But in the end she only ate some fries and drank milo-.-'''CATHI AH!do you know that africans can't even have a taste of how french fries is like???*tsk tsk tsk*
One thing that i MUST say:
CATHI IS SUPER DUPER PRO IN BASKETBALL!!!SHE CAN SHOOT DAMN ACCURATELY!I even lost to her on ABC...she's just too pro...hahas.
ok,I'm damn HAPPY today lahz!heex!
Basketball brings me joy!

Yesterday was crazy.I shopped in westmall ALONE for a pair of sandals for myself and a birthday card for my friend Hui Sian.This time round,being alone is kind of lonely and i dun really enjoy the feeling...how i wished somebody could accompany me...but i messaged many people and all were not free...haizzz...
In the end,i got a birthday card and a wallet instead of a pair of sandals(cause i can't find the kind i want).
After that,i went to Bukit Batok's CSC clubhouse to find my parents and my 9-year old bro.They went there to play jackpot but my was SERIOUSLY and OBVIOUSLY underage,so they put him in the lan gaming shop. Later on when i reached,my mum actually asked me to accompany my bro. CAN YOU ALL BELIEVE IT THAT I WAS ACTUALLY ACCOMPANYING MY LITTLE BROTHER PLAYING LAN GAMES,TO BE EXACT,COUNTERSTRIKE, IN A CLUB HOUSE???i can't believe it...hahasss...BUT it was fun...my bro and i was sort of arguing for what game to play.Hahas...everything ended off when i was helping him registering for the game, O2-jam(cause i wanna play!!hahs).BUT,i didn't managed to complete the registration,so i wasn't able to play it-.-'''
ok,I'm having a damn boring lesson right now. The lesson is so boring till i dozed off just now.So i'm trying to do something to keep me awake...So,i got a website address from my fren,which is about personality test.I did a few and some are really true.=)
First test i did,What mood are you in?
| You Aren't In the Best Of Moods |
 While you aren't full on depressed, things aren't going your way. You may be hurt, angry, frustrated... or all three. Not to worry - you'll be feeling fine in no time. |
This is REALLY true....and i expected the test result to be this...cause i'm really DEPRESSED recently...haiz..
Second test,What kind of friend are you?
| You Are A Good Friend |
 You're always willing to listen Or lend a shoulder to cry on You're there through thick and thin Many people consider you their "best friend"! |
MAYBE this is true,i dunno,i can't judge it myself..hahahs..but i'm a person who REALLY CHERISHES the friendships with my friends=)
Third test,What emotion represents you right now?
| Your Emoticon is Sad |
 You're feeling a tad depressed right now. It will likely pass soon, but for now, you need some major cheering up! |
ok,this is true too, and i did this to support the first i did and to support the fact that i'm REALLY DEPRESSED.
Fourth test,What kind of food are you?
| You Are Italian Food |
 Comforting yet overwhelming. People love you, but sometimes you're just too much. |
I'm don't quite really understand the part when it says that some times i'm just too much,is it in a bad or good way?I DUNNO!
Fifth test,what colour is your aura?
| Your Aura is Blue |
 Spiritual and calm, you tend to live a quiet but enriching life. You are very giving of yourself. And it's hard for you to let go of relationships. The purpose of your life: showing love to other people Famous blues include: Angelina Jolie, the Dali Lama, Oprah Careers for you to try: Psychic, Peace Corps Volunteer, Counselor |
Hmm...maybe i could try the jobs..
Sixth test,Are you a thrill seeker?
| You Are Adventurous... Sometimes |
 You like an adrenaline rush as much as the next person. You like your thrills in small doses. You're generally pretty calm and level headed. But sometimes you have to go wild and have a crazy adventure. |
This is REAL true!! I love THRILLS!!!
Seventh test,The three question personality test.
| Your Personality Is |
You are a passionate, caring, and unique person. You are good at expressing yourself and sharing your ideals. You are the most compassionate of all types and connect with others easily. Your heart tends to rule you. You can't make decisions without considering feelings. You seek out other empathetic people to befriend. Truth and authenticity matters in your friendships. In love, you give everything you have to relationships. You fall in love easily. At work, you crave personal expression and meaning in your career. With others, you communicate well. You can spend all night talking with someone. As far as your looks go, you've likely taken the time to develop your own personal style. On weekends, you like to be with others. Charity work is also a favorite pastime of yours. |
This is true indeed..hahas..
ok,That's all for NOW.hhas..i can't help it doing lots and lots of personality tests..cause its so fun to know more about
myself=)
HEEZ,
Serene.
I hope time can freeze during that moments.
