Embarassing >.<

OMG OMG OMG

I did something really really embarrassing today!!!!!

>.<

One month in London

Wow, I'm officially in London for one month already.
One month! Long, isn't it?

I stepped on this foreign land on 26th of September 2009.
I started my independent life here.
No family members,
No best friends,
I started a whole new life here.

London School of Economics,
such a league university in London,
yet, I don't feel secure like in PCGHS,
yet, I don't feel relaxed like in Taylor's,
it's competitive but interesting!

It's a new life!

Friends,
I've met a lot.
Malaysians, Singaporeans, British, Swedish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, even Kazakhstanese..
WOW! All with different culture,
All with different background,
All with lots of interesting stories,
waiting for me to explore!

Places,
I've been to many.
British Museum, Gallery, Covent Garden..
Well, not really that many..
I see different people
I taste different food
I took tonnes of photos...

I've learnt to become independent.
I travel alone
I use public transport
I explore new things

I fell sick
and it's what people here call Freshers' Flu
I had a bad cough
and I totally lost my voice
I haven't even had this before in Malaysia

When I was at home,
I was treated like a princess when I fall sick
Here,
I even walked out and bought mineral water, thermo flask, medicine
ALL BY MYSELF
while coughing non stop
I grew up, didn't I?

Old friends,
found their new friends in their new life.
New friends,
had their own gang of friends.
I actually feel lonely sometimes.

I love this place,
I wanna explore more about this place,
but I miss home too..

Home is the best place ever
Past is the best time ever
But future will be interesting and mysterious~

Gambateh Nicole =D

Cooking =D

Guess what? I think I qualify to be a great mommy~!! hehe..

Firstly, I CAN COOK weiii!!

I cooked dinner for my brother when my parents needed to attend a dinner.. And dad couldn’t stand but eat them before he went to the dinner! hehe..

In the menu………..

Onion Egg

Taiwan Sausage

Colourful chillis

My beautiful work =D satisfied

Well well well… I admit, they are actually very simple dishes.. but people start from something easy right? then we proceed to something more difficult =D

Okay, now I will share with you the recipe of my family’s best food~ HAINAN CHICKEN RICE, yes in case u don’t know that, I’m a Hainanese =)

First, prepare some water in a pot.

Some vege that look like that..

And Chillis, Cucumber, Cai Xin…

Of course, a chicken.

A Ginger

Daddy picking the garlic

Some garlics

Garlics and a ginger

Tap them with a knife like that

Then squeeze them into the chicken from its butt. Remember to clean everything inside first!

Squeeze the leg of the chicken inside as well

Season the chicken with salt

Massage the chicken with the salt on it

Here’s the look of the chicken before you cook it.. See the garlics and ginger inside?

Then, put the chicken into the pot of boiled water

Flip the chicken to the other side after 15minutes, then boil for 15 minutes again, then take it out.

Now, to make the Hainan Chicken Rice sambal, first clean the surface of the ginger

And prepare some garlics, remove their skin

Cut some red chillis

Put all of them into a blender

Add some salt

Then blend it! Make them dizzy =)

Pour the chilli into a bowl

Add some chicken soup (take the surface)

Mix it, tada~ it’s done!

Now, to cook the RICE

First, wash the uncooked rice for 3 times, then dry it.

Cut slices of gingers and chop garlics

Fried them with some oil until it become a bit brownish

Then add in the uncooked rice

Fry for a while..

Put those rice into a rice cooker and add suitable amount of chicken soup

Then cook the rice!

And chop the chicken =)

Now, the perfect chicken rice of Pang’s family is done =)

Thanks to the half naked cook =P

Ahh my cute daddy, i’m gonna miss him!

Ohya add some of the mint grass…

Who’s flying? haha..

The answer is my mom =) I’m gonna miss her too!

Alright, I’ve learnt chicken rice as well =) now i can cook in uni =)

Ohya, another point for me to be a good mom,

I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST ON MY FIRST ATTEMPT THIS MORNING!

hehe.. I can finally drive now! weeee…

Maybe I can fetch my children to tuition and school in the future.. haha..

WELL WELL WELL, I’m certainly not dreaming to become a mother,

I am just trying to link cooking to driving =D

CHEERS~

My 18th Birthday

1st of August 2009, my 18th Birthday...

18 years old

One of the most interesting age in one’s life

An age without worries

An age with lots of hopes

An age with lots of great things~

An age with lots of great friends

An age with a lovely family..

An age with many dreams and striving hard to achieve them!

I’m really glad to have a bunch of really good friends, who purposely came all the way to Penang to give me a surprise, and celebrate my birthday with me ^^ Thank you guys! I really really appreciate it =)

Jun Hui, Danny and Iee Lee came all the way to Penang one day before my birthday, just to celebrate my birthday with me! I was really happy and grateful!

On 31st July, we went for dinner – SEAFOOD at a restaurant by the beach..

We took some pictures at the beach….

My mom and I, with a bottle of whisky Gold Label and a bottle of Brandy, Cordon Blue! NO! We are not alcohol freak! =]

My lovely brother, Wan Ko~

Guess what? We, only 6 of us, finished one bottle of whisky and a bit of the Cordon Blue! Now I know everyone can drink!

After dinner, we went to my brother’s Bistro, LOOK BISTRO to continue drinking ^^ Guess what I told my mom? “Mummy, I wanna get drunk today” Oh no I can’t believe I was so innocent! I wanted to get a taste of being drunk! AND I WAS FIRST TIME DRINKING SO MUCH!!!!!!!

Initially, we planned to go Redbox for karaoke but all the plans ruined just because of me!! AHhh.. my friends stayed at home to accompany me for the whole day! haha.. I guess I’m the only person in the world who will spend her birthday SLEEPING AT HOME WHOLE DAY! haha.. with all her frens looking at her…. ahh..

But they surprised me again.. Lynn a.k.a mummy bought me these cupcakes ^^ The initial plan was she will bump into our karaoke room with these cupcakes to surprise me.. but ahhhhh…. MY FAULT! =P

So as you see, I will be saying tata~ to my old blog template.. Remember my little rainbow town?

Yeah, I will be officially 18 soon, grown up a little compared to last year!

Yeah, a little, I admit not that much..

But it shall be time to say bye to my cute (I wouldn't consider it as childish!) rainbow town,

yea, time to grow up...

Few days later, I will be turning 18,

not long later, I will be entering university!

So, I hope that this change of template can bring a new life to me~

A new and meaningful life!

Time to say bye to

all my childishness,

all the kiddy tears,

all the selfish thoughts,

Of course,

I'm still myself =)

Still the girl who loves you <3

Changing to this layout,

a very very sweet one..

Hopefully I will be filled with sweet things in the future..
