Belated New Year Post =)

So i promised Chrislynn to blog about our cooking process for new year dinner. Here it is, even it's a little late. Foreseen the big crowd going out on 1st Jan with traffic jam and all, we decided to fully use our holiday on 31st December for simple shopping, dinner and movie at the most not crowded place we know of - Cheras Selatan, Balakong, or so we thought. Thanks for Malaysia football team who won the Suzuki Cup, we had an extra holiday on 31st December.

So the outing group consists of the SINGLE ladies, which are Chrislynn, Ying, Wen and Me! Here are some pictures of us at a-i-don't-know-the-name Japanese restaurant. The food is slightly pricey but its worth it for the nice ambient. Overall the food is ok. After the early dinner at 5pm, we went around shopping and everyone bought something except Ying. Wen is the big buyer of the day where she bought a travel luggage bag for quite a deal. We also went for a movie - Gulliver's Travel (3D). My first 3D movie. I heard some people suffer side effects from it such as dizziness n ect but luckily none of us got any of it. It's one of the best comedy i watched through out the year and the visual effect is awesome. After movie, we went to a hawker center right behind the mall for supper and we watched Shakira shaking her "butt" amazingly on some China live new year count down concert on the big screen. Its a simple but nice day =)

The next day, we decided to not have any outings but instead, we planned to cook ourselves spaghetti as dinner which we've always talked about since chek and others move out. Hence, we spent luxurious sleep till late noon, and later moved our way to the nearby Econsave for ingredients. Around 5pm, we started with our preparation. Let the pictures tell the story.

Spaghetti: Boiled it and later on apply some margarine

some cutting by Chrislynn and Wen

San Remo can sauce, cooked with minced chicken breast meat,

fresh tomatoes,mushrooms, and hotdogs

coleslaw: cabbage, carrot and mayonise sauce

Special dish of the day: mash potatoes (by me)

First, u boiled the potato, mashed it and mix with a little pepper, salt, milk and margarine

Next, make bowl shape containers out of aluminium foil paper

Stuff the mixed mash potatoes in the bowls

Lastly, put a layer of cheese on top of the mash potatoes, shown as picture above

We're suppose to bake the potatoes for 3 minutes for the cheese on top to melt but we do not have an oven with us, so instead we used a wok!

tadaa! that's how it looks like when its done. Looks awesome, right? right? =)

and trust me, it taste superbly nice too!!

A meal by our own, consider a great success.

We shall try more cookings soon!

We played monopoly after dinner. We called it a day after a round of monopoly since we're tired from the previous day of shopping. Oh, and Chrislynn reminded me that we actually spent 3 years of new year together. The first one at Seremban, not knowing that it's the Agong's death and most of the shops are closed, we ended up counting down at A&W with waffles and curly fries. The second one at Chek's house with steamboat and games, and i even mimic Michael Jackson's dance move for one of the games punishment. The third is the one just passed. I'm happy that its her which i spent my recent new years with and i'm more than lucky to have her. Gosh, i'll really miss her after we graduate =S

Some updates about me: I got a new cellphone. Let me present to you, Nokia C-6-01!!!

I loved my new phone, still loving it now. Have been discovering new things about it since i bought it 3 weeks ago. I hope this one will last long. My semester started 2 weeks ago and still adapting to university life after a month of laid back at hometown. I've more to share about, but maybe next post. till then! xoxo
