it's ame's birthday!

Today finally I can pass the present that me and fang yao bought for her. Well, I’m really glad to see she likes the present very much.
As usual, we celebrated her birthday at 12 am of 16th Nov. a few of our bro and sis in Christ came and rejoice with her.
Well, tomorrow, I have a plan for her – to cook for her, but it seems like she is kinda occupied; I don’t want to make her miserable to reject her friends invitation, so, I made my plan flexible.
What I want to prepare for her : fried bee hoon, sushi, jelly and if possible fruit salad.
Anyways, I just pray that
May God grant her this day
That's as special as her,
May He bless her, keep her,
And cause her dreams to come true.

Happy birthday, ame.

Samantha's birthday

Today is Samantha's birthday.She is the only group mates we as a group could not celebrate for her. For the past 3 years, her birthday was in the period of examinations...and everyone was so busy with our books. This year, eventhough the exam ended earlier, we still could not managed to celebrate for her, coz, she has gone back to Malaysia for holidays. Hmmm, i guess she's at home now, celebrating her big day with her beloved family members , which i believed that would be more merry.
Well, Sam is actually my room mate and my group mate. We both have been staying, learning and enjoying together with all kinds of emotion - laughter, tension and relax...etc
I however thank GOD for placing her to be my room mate.
Well, i wish her a blessed birthday!!
Have an enjoyable holidays back in Malaysia!

at Manesh...then italian restaurant.

Today is Sarah Jane’s birthday. Sarah is one of my group mates. We’ve been group mates since the first year it self. Time really flies; it has been almost 4 years we knew each other. So, today, after class, we walked to Manesh together. It was kind of an excursion- according to Sarah, the birthday girl.
We went into the shopping complex. There were many branded shops here, like the New Yorker, Mango, Jennifer, Sela, Tvoe, Modis, United color of Benetton, Adidas, Reebok, and so on. There is a food court at the top floor. Wow, the food here was extremely expensive. Thus, Ming suggested that, we’ll do the shopping first, and followed by lunch. Goodness me; for a while, Sam, Sarah, Halley, Ming, Sien Mei & Liam, were out of my vision. So, left me, Pauline, we were just walking around. We then, decided to go to the supermarket, at the ground floor. Manesh can be considered one of the most established shopping complex, here in Kursk. There was a skating ring at the compound of the complex during the winter, while a tent for beer, during summer.
After an hour of shopping, we then, proceed to the nearest Italian restaurant for lunch. This year, we have an ice cream cake for Sarah. Halley bought from the supermarket. It was a chocolate ice cream cake. While waiting for our orders to come, we celebrated Sarah’s birthday. She cut her chocolate ice cream cake, as we sang the last verse of happy birthday song to her. Well, it has been our group 12 tradition, to sing only the last verse of the birthday song, to any of our group mates who celebrate his or her birthday especially in any restaurant. Perhaps, we were too shy to sing it in the public, as there will always many eyes staring on us.
After lunch, we went back to our respective places. As I was on the trolley bus from the Italian restaurant, I was able to peep at the temperature house and it was written, 23.7 C. praise the Lord! I thank GOD for such a good weather, here now. I believe, starting today, we’ll be able to enjoy our summer.

new recipes from birthday party...

Today is my group mates’ birthday. Did you notice? I put an s after the word mate. This is because there is a pair of twins in my group and today is their birthday. After class, we went to the nearest hypermarket to do marketing. We bought a lot of stuffs to cook for dinner, as we planned to throw them a party. The best thing was, the bill was foot by the birthday boys.

There was a lot of food today. There were sushi, emperor chicken, kicap chicken, stewed pork, fried broccoli and cauliflower, a bowl of soup, steam fish, wave- chicken-egg, fried noodles, rice. We have the dessert as well. We have the fruits- cocktail plus orange juice, and the apple cheese cake.
It was indeed a great party. I learnt new recipes from a teck and Liam.

From Liam, I learnt to make sushi!!
Well, sushi is very expensive over here. So, it is a good idea to learn how to make sushi as you can eat as much as you like. Now, how to make them?
First, you got to boil the rice (the round rice) with vinegar and a little bit of sugar.
Second, after the rice is cooked, then, make it into the shape of small rectangle
(4cm x 2cm x 1 cm)
Third, fried the eggs (the beaten kind) and cut it into the rectangle shape (4cm x 2cm)
Fourth, place the egg on top of the rice. You can also use the crab stick as the topping.
Fifth, take the seaweed and cut it into the same size as above rectangle for the fried eggs and crab stick.
Sixth, place the seaweed around the egg/ crabstick and the rice
Seventh, it is then ready to be served.

You can also make the roll- kind of sushi…
First, take the whole piece of the seaweed (round shape)
Second, place the rice on top of the seaweed
Third, roll the rice together with the seaweed
Fourth, cut the roll of sushi to be round sushi.
Fifth, place the caviar on top of the sushi. You may place the cut-salmon on top.

The second dish that I learnt was “wave-chicken-egg”. This recipe was introduced by a teck.
It was so simple. Just want to share here, incase you have no idea what to prepare for dinner, here you are…it is just so simple and nice.
How to make?
1st, beat about 4 to 5 eggs in a bowl and pour some mince meat + pepper + salt
2nd, mix the eggs and mince meat till evenly. Then, put it onto the microwave and wait for about 15 mins.
3rd, it is then, ready to be served.

See, it is as easy as ABC… try it out!!!

It's a happy day (1)

I am very happy today because today is my friend’s birthday. I wish her all the best in years to come. After class, my group mates and I went to the Baskin robins to have lunch and throw a party for her. Very simple, yet I believed it’s memorable.
We bought her 4 little cute cups. I guess she will love them.
We had a great time there. Besides celebrating birthday, we took the opportunity to strengthen the rapport among the group mates. Isn't that great?
