Pain!

Played badminton for almost 2 hours with William yesterday morning, and today my whole body is aching. Reminder to self: next time warm up properly and don't try to play like a pro. It was fun and it was a really good workout! I didn't know I had that much muscle until now...when they're all aching! Can't even walk properly! hahaha...good thing im on holiday =)

This morning washed my car, it was so dirty! The last time I washed the car was more than a month ago! Sorry ZX! And then I washed the City also, cause it was parked next to my car...haha...washing the car when your whole body is aching is not a very good idea, but i'm crazy like that! hahaha!

So my dad got a new toy, a DSLR camera. He got the Nikon D60. Chunted lah! its so cool when it makes that sound when taking a picture! I am such a geek! Will see if I get any nice shots and then post it here =)

More photos!

Had to edit the poster and banner so here's the final designs:





Whaddaya think?

Anyway I am very angry because some people just don't pay attention! When I say "please check all the info etc and let me know if there's any mistakes" please please please check properly lah ok! Shouldn't have taken up this post la. So unsuitable for the job. Anyway it will be over soon...

Phew!

I've been tagged recently but then I don't think I wanna do those tags, so sorry to those who have tagged me =) Jangan marah ye...hehe =)

Today I spent my day learning how to use photoshop. It's so useful! (you probably know that by know, duh!) Especially the clone stamp tool! Wahahaha...Experimented here n there, clicked here n there, used so many programs and finally managed to do the banner =) I never learn how to use a program formally, usually I use trial and error (or rather the undo button =P) Looks pretty decent, hope its approved by everyone in the Christmas Night committee...Anyway here's a picture of the poster (which was done weeks ago and the picture taken off the net), if anyone is free do come ok =) Will put a pic of the banner soon!


Should have enough info on this poster...if not...I fail!

Homeeeee!

Yep finally back home. Came back on Sunday, wanted to update my blog but somehow too lazy to do that! Reached home at around 3.15pm, was super hungry because had breakfast at around 10.30am at KLCC because I had to stop by there to get my mom's birthday present (will update that in another post) and then window shopped for a while (flat rate for 3 hours of parking, so might as well hang around a bit!) William followed me back so he was stuck with me window shopping at KLCC! Hahaha! Anyway we went to the Galeri Petronas where they had an exhibition titled "Imaging Selfs", portrats by Soeaya Yusof Talismail (it's free =P). Had loads of black and white photos using various types of print for photo representations of around 80 people in the artistic scene in Malaysia. Quite nice, although I wouldn't know how to "see" art, so I was just looking at the pics =)

Gotta go to the Janamanjung Power Plant for a visit related to FYP - just to learn more about the plant, nothing more. Hope I actually learn something there...so its back to Sitiawan for a daytrip! =)

Shepherd's Pie

So most of my friends are blogging about their love life, their marriage plans, fashion and makeup, their emoings or random stuff and here I am, blogging about food! Oh well...food's more interesting! (I am SO gonna be fat in no time!) I do think I spend most of my money on food...hmmm...

I have been watching FRIENDS and I saw that episode where Rachel was preparing dessert for Thanksgiving and she wanted to prepare an English Trifle but the pages of the recipe got stuck together and she ended up with a half English Trifle-half Shepherd's Pie! And then I remembered how good Shepherd's pie tastes and so I Googled the recipe (I will also die if I am cut off from the internet for too long-most people would die from dehydration first but I would die from being starved of the internet!). So here's the recipe, looks pretty simple =)

Easy Shepherd's Pie Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 lbs ground round beef
• 1 onion chopped
• 1-2 cups vegetables - chopped carrots, corn, peas
• 1 1/2 - 2 lbs potatoes (3 big ones)
• 8 tablespoons butter (1 stick)
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• Salt, pepper, other seasonings of choice

Method

1 Peel and quarter potatoes, boil in salted water until tender (about 20 minutes).

2 While the potatoes are cooking, melt 4 Tablespoons butter (1/2 a stick) in large frying pan.

3 Sauté onions in butter until tender over medium heat (10 mins). If you are adding vegetables, add them according to cooking time. Put any carrots in with the onions. Add corn or peas either at the end of the cooking of the onions, or after the meat has initially cooked.

4 Add ground beef and sauté until no longer pink. Add salt and pepper. Add worcesterchire sauce. Add half a cup of beef broth and cook, uncovered, over low heat for 10 minutes, adding more beef broth as necessary to keep moist.

5 Mash potatoes in bowl with remainder of butter, season to taste.

6 Place beef and onions in baking dish. Distribute mashed potatoes on top. Rough up with a fork so that there are peaks that will brown nicely. You can use the fork to make some designs in the potatoes as well.

7 Cook in 400 degree oven until bubbling and brown (about 30 minutes). Broil for last few minutes if necessary to brown.

Serves four.

It's making me hungry! Must try to make this sometime during the break. MmmMmmM =)

One more paper on Friday morning and I'm done for the semester!!

New layout

Suddenly I had the idea to rearrange the furniture in my room (in uni hostel). I guess I was bored with the current layout and also the fear that from the arrangement of my speakers it might be too loud and disturb my housemates (no complaints tho =))So after Principles of Management paper yesterday I did a massive rearrange and cleanup (lots of dust under the bed!) So here's the pics before and after.

Old layout:


New Layout:

Those are great news. Unfortunately, the weather has been really weird lately. First, a few weeks ago, it kept raining every few hours and the weather was gloomy and all. Now, its so hot I can't study! =( Even when it gets cloudy there's no rain! =(

Too much rain, feel like sleeping. No rain, hot weather, cannot study. =_="
