I know I'm just being fussy and complain-y and all that, but WHY ON EARTH does amazon have to deliver my hard drive in a box this BIG?


I can put lets see : 9 X 6 =54 hard drives in there. Not kidding, I know, I know. I am indeed jobless.


My dear sister Miss Lee Sze Xian ( also known as miss vain lee ) would PROTEST when she hears about this. Organise a riot against Amazon.com even. Haha one of the banners would have a caption like this :


"AMAZON NOT doing its part in saving the amazon jungle."



or.. or...



"AMAZON NOT amazing."


(please don't kill me xian, *innocent faced peilian opens her eyes as big as it can get* shows that I think of you whatt =) )

Despite the 'I-don't-give-2-ticks-about-the-stupid-jungle' attitude, I have to say that Amazon is very reliable. Its the only place I would do my online shopping without worrying about being conned. My 'the other boleyn girl' story book was bought from there too. =)

So anyways.

Broccolli n cheese is yucky. ( seriously. I had this for dinner tonight )

But making cards makes me go YUPPIE!!! =) Especially when it is for a good cause. Today I spent the whole afternoon in the chaiplaincy making THESE 2 cards :




It was so so tedious and time consuming to make!! First we had to cut really thin strips of coloured paper, then roll them, then figure out a shape to create with them. And because I havent done them before it took me ages to roll it right, and to figure what to create with them.


But I'm proud of these little cute-sies. I hope they get sold out fast. =)

Cass and Kari made really cute ones too. =)


This one's a classic : A rabbit in the rain, under an umbrella.

This as well; A tree-turned-into 'celery'. ( with extra photographic effects of kari's snail keychain ) Looks more like pak choi to me tobehonest. =)



There were others made earlier by the other girls ( not today ) which I thought were gorgeous too.



Are you feeling like awwwwwwww right now? Heheh. =)


Little did we know that whilst we girls are cutting-rolling-sticking away, the guys have an artistic agenda of their own. =)

Alex, francisco and oscar had their version of ART translated onto a grapefruit.



Alex's British, Francisco n Oscar's Mexican ( spanish speaking ) and don't ask me whats with GO USA.

If I had a pen that time, I would have drawn "Mighty Malaysia". =)

Malaysia Boleh just doesn't seem right at this point in time with stupid politicians getting on each others throat, after the 'so-called-successful' general election. The leaders of my country really disappoint me sometimes.

Oh well.

More birthdays.

Tomone turned 28, and Robin turned 21 this weekend!


So yes, it was cake and more cake.


My church friends and I threw Tomone a 'surprise' birthday meal during our weekly church group meeting in Karina's house. We had cod, potatoes and a YUMMY-licious lemon meringue pie curtesy of Karina, Cass and myself =) ( although the chief-cook was karinita )


The kitchen was in a frenzy for we started cooking quite late, and Tomone is always so PUNCTUAL we couldnt get the meal ready in time to say SURPRISE TOMONE!


HAHA so when she arrived there was this super obvious kind of GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN TOMONE vibe I bet she knew what we were up to already.


It was funny how karina couldnt leave cass n I in charge of her kitchen, for she kept saying she had to leave to pick alex up and rent a dvd from blockbuster, and never really left. Gave me instructions to 'baby-sit' the boiling potatoes and carrots, also the fish in the oven, at the same time crush shortbread for the base of the lemon meringue pie. And tried to leave, but never really did. Until everything was almost done anyway. Hahaha if she did leave us, I'm afraid there might be no dinner in the end, for the recipes are all so foreign to cass n myself. Nothing I ever concocted myself.=)


After leaving tomone feeling bored in the living room for quite some time, it was finally time to EAT.


Cod baked in lemon and wine, carrots boiled with cream, and potatoes drenched in olive oil and oregano. OO-LALA. =)




And, Karina's lemon meringue pie! OMG she's amazing at deserts, that girl. =) Her mango pudding's heart-melting too. I already am anticipating our desert for Easter lunch.



Us =) ( our weekly marion group minus naomi and karina )



Its always so fun chilling with these peeps =) We played taboo, uno, and tried to compose a song. HAHA. =)

Another birthday, last night. This was somewhat different coz there was a 'theme' and people were supposed to come dressed as anything starting with the letter 'R' in conjunction to the birthday boy's name, 'Robin'.
Robin's my coursemate in dentistry, a Welsh guy with a funky sense of style, and good impersonation skills. =)


Rocker-girl Ayish, Ribbon-me, and Rabbit Sandy =)


Cute birthday cake =)

A Reverend brought Robin his cake, whilst a Robber looks on.


The birthday boy, looking pleased with his cake. Looking on was 'Rooney' and girl on Rollerskates. =)


There was a PINATA too! Omg I always watched the kids play this on 'Barney n friends' when I was younger!





It was hilarious watching people take turns to swing the stick, trying to break the pinata.=)

Finally it was broken into pieces, and candy was scattered all over the ground for us to pick.



It was, all in all, an enjoyable night. =)


=) Have a good week, peeps!

I wonder how humans in the primitive age survived without technology.

Being the techno-noob that I am, I still think I would DIE without my IPOD ( hahaha yes a nice new cute blue one ) and my laptop. DIE of B.O.R.E.D.O.M, that is.

OK I'm going to say something that would make you guys think I'm weird to the ULTIMATUM.

But I have the need to express my fears.

So here goes : I think my JAW is getting bigger. So much so that when I smile you see all my lower teeth.

I see some people cringe-ing. HAHAH.

Eh. But seriously you know. I have this phobia that one day I would wake up looking like this :


THERE. See what I mean?


OK I wasn't exactly SMILING, and there might be a 'slight' intended stupid expression that I was trying to portray, FAILING miserably at it.

Although I forgot what I was trying to 'look' like, but one thing for sure, its downright HIDEOUS.

Hahaha but for a good laugh, why not. ( although because of this photo my 'saham' might turun mendadak =) )

So now you see why I have my fears.

As you would be able to tell, BOREDOM is not healthy for me. Indeed.
