2 more papers till freedom!

Yay! got through the first paper today which is BIO1320 - Animal and Plant physiology. Alhamdulillah I practiced the past year exam questions cause there are quite a few of them in the paper ^^. Not gonna do anything major today as I barely slept last night so the next round of revision will start TOMORROW.

Let's see I was gonna update something a few days ago but the blogger site was under maintenance or something like that so I didn't get the chance to.

Last week I tried to cook Chicken with tomato puree ( powdered ). That was my first time trying to cook something like that. So the first thing to do would be follow the instructions. So...

 Fry the chicken.

 Mix the powder mix with water.
 Then mix everything in. The funny thing is it didn't work! Looks more like FRIED chicken now doesn't it?

 Yep definitely fried chicken, but it was tasty anyway so all's fine.

Then I think this happened the same day or the next day. *Memory overload so can't remember anything else lol* Revision night.

 Monster drink. Just an experiment to see if it works, so I drank it that night for revision.
 So far so good~
 At the dining table upstairs.
 You can tell that I have a bit of an issue with concentrating lol.
 Apples with sambal belacan.
The morning's here!

There, the drink works alright. I was sleepy of course but I just can't seem to fall asleep. Got things done and got the apples as a reward. ^^

Took these two days after I think. The Fab Ice cream. Was introduced by Ka Cken when I was in Cardiff. Can't get enough of it now lol.

Fab 
Anchovies Fried Rice

Shamsa cooked for us twice the day before. Forgot to take pictures though. That was a shame. But wow African food are YUMMY! Would love to learn someday. And Shamsa told me that the language in Lion King was in Swahili, which is an African language. For example 'Hakuna Matata' which means 'no worries' and such. Now THAT is definitely a language that I wanna learn! I always thought those words were just made up. ^^

I think that's enough for now. See ya next time!

Done Lecture 4, Break, Lecture 5 coming up

*sigh* 'procrastination' is the word for not just today but everyday ^^ Oh well~ Just saw Lady Gaga's new MV - Judas.



Despite all the religious outrage in the news and everything, I quite like the song and it's actually quite catchy . . but I'm not sure if it's alright for me to sing along with it :s But the actual meaning of the song isn't about anything religious at all . . maybe a lil' bit but the main story is about loving the wrong person over and over again, or should I say the SAME wrong person over and over again. The person who had betrayed her yet she still clings to him. So it should be alright...?

And there's this cover by one of my fave youtube artist:


Love the instrumental cover! ^^

Just voicing out my opinion before having another go at revision. Time to get back to it! Till next time~

Great Great Holiday, Time to Face the Real World Again

Have been to lots of places this Easter break. Did a lot of new stuff as well but haven't got the time to actually update here. I'll do that when I get the chance and time to later on. I'm currently in the process of updating my Field Diary for BIO1407 which is up for inspection tomorrow, along with the Collection. Yep that's right, it's all done and over with! Well not quite . . but it will be by tomorrow ^^ Right I'm still on Trip 7 in my Diary, 3 more trips to go .. I can do this! *being positive makes you healthy ;)*

So yeah will continue doing work for now. Might update just before exams start which is on the 18th of May, which would mean that I'd be procrastinating lol but hey we need to be happy to do good right? ^^ Alrighty adios for now. *wave2*

Day Out at the City with Kaka Amal

Bought new shoes for 'Salam Brunei' and a pair of sneaker-flats for the coming summer. Gosh spent quite some money today but it was worth it :) Wasn't actually in the mood to go anywhere today, too lazy to move my butt from bed lol. But then Sarah reminded me that I haven't got any shoes to go with my baju kurung yet. So Ka Mal and me went out in the end ^^ Too many temptations out there really. Want this, want that *sigh*

Just outside Selfridges
Taken by Ka Mal ;p
The crossroads of my life~ lol

The picture of the woman in bikini seemed a bit too focused in the one I uploaded on facebook but yeah it was supposed to focus on the whole background of the area :) We went to Subway afterwards. Got ourselves Italian B.M.T, YUMMY~

It's Ka Amal's Birthday today, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KA AMAL!! May Allah bless you. Hope you're successful in everything that you do, always prosperous and healthy on the inside and outside and always be cheerful in life, amin~ ♥ you Ka Mal! :D


Signing out, adios~

Soto Day + Teh Tarik - Asian Night!

Haha finally got the chance to actually learn cooking :D Thanks to the recipe from the internet and Ka Jilah's 'suggestion' for me to cook soto for yesterday ^^. So with Ka Mal's and Nabillah's help it turned out to be successful, yay!

Cute Easter Chocolates ^^
Holding a 'HUNNY' pot :D
Cooking in process
Nasi Impit
Sup Soto Daging
Ka Mal made Lada Rindu and we all made Kicap Special, no pictures of them though. They were the HOTTEST things I've ever tasted since like ages! Too much Lada Padi. But it was yummy nonetheless but miss mum's soto now :s and Sarah made dessert - chocolate-coated strawberries, umm umm~ and Nabillah made Teh Tarik ala-ala Taiwan. The perfect Asian dinner combo. 10 out of 10!

After all that eating we karaoke-d  till like 12am. Too bad I didn't know most of the songs. Not good for the voice (as in our voice may not come out the next day) but a good tension-remover - recommended to all ;) Gonna hit the hay - till next time~

The Start of Easter Break!

Yay! I'm here in Birm already after quite a hectic day yesterday. I missed my first train form Falmouth Town to Truro Rail Station by a few minutes. I guess living so close to a rail station has its downsides - taking things for granted thinking I can take my time . . . Guess what happened, got too carried away then realized it's nearly time to depart. I basically rushed there but too bad I missed it. In the end I called the cab to get to Truro to catch my next train for Birmingham. It costed me £25 but yeah there's nothing much I can do. Don't wanna miss the whole train in the end so . . My taxi driver was a friendly sport which made me feel better a bit so I didn't think much about the whole missing-the-train bit. He was a bit amazed that I'm still smiling though lol. Things happen for a reason they say.


I think that reserving a seat is a smart thing to do as you don't have to find a seat somewhere else. It took me about 6 hours to get to Birmingham. Snapped a few pictures in the train.



Got to Birm at about 3.55pm. Kaka Amal came and picked me up. I was too hungry cause I didn't get the chance to grab anything to eat for the train ride so we stopped by at this new chinese restaurant callled 'Chopsticks'. It's halal, they've got a buffet menu and it's just about £5 for the buffet! That was really a treat :D Too bad my tummy can't fill everything in so I stopped after the second round.

Today Ka Mal took me to the city with Nabillah - just met her yesterday and we both slept on Ka Mal's floor lol. I spent a lot today shopping for clothes at Primark - phew~ I'm happy with them though :D Then we stopped by at China Town and drank Bubble Teas at Caffe Chino. Got myself a Pandan Cake as well yum~

China Town in Birm
Where we get our Bubble Teas

The photos aren't really in the right order, we went shopping first then Bubble Teas, sorry for that. Alrighty then will update again soon, sayonara for now ^^
