Pics @ Aunt's house!

Hehehe, this post will be filled with pictures I/my sis has taken while we were staying in our Aunt's house from 16th Dec to 19th Dec!

"Wa lao, AFTER SO LONG then you update?!"
Ai ya, you know I very lazy one la~

"One post, just for the pictures taken at your aunt's house? Got so many pictures meh?"
Got! 40! Enough a not? Lol~
But is random photos la, so... Hehehehe =p

Just in case you don't get it, those that I "" is like things that you MAY think/say.
Lol, don't think that I keep talking to myself already hor!

OKAY, so first day, my sis and I took the train all the way to serangoon.
As we wanted to make it a surprise, we didn't inform our Aunt and by the time we reach serangoon it's lunch time already.
Therefore, knowing that our Aunt did not prepare any lunch for us, we decided to eat at NEX.



After walking here and there (and my mei finally bought her mondo shoes, sponsored), we decided to try Carls Junior!
Yes, I know, a bit make no sense since JP has Carls Junior....
"Want try why don't try at JP go all the way to NEX?"
Cause food in NEX are generally quite expensive (restaurants) and like other fast food outlets we tried before already.


Our number~



Number together with the drinks!
My mei went for grape (F&N grape) while I went for the Ice tea.
Regret not pouring more sugar syrup... *sigh*

I forgot what burger I ordered there, I only remember I ordered a set (burger + fries + drinks).
And I can't remember how the burger taste like... (ya la, forgetful sugarcane. You should have knew it, shouldn't you? Hehe =p)
BUT! I know the fries are awesome!!
By awesome I mean placing the fries exposed in the air for several hours (like afternoon till night) and despite it being cold it still taste nice.
Like really! Cause the fries is quite a lot and we can't finish it so we dragged until night then managed to finish it.
Can fight with Macdonalds already, lol~

However, the appearance of the fries may make you think that it will not be nice (at least I did).
Why?
It's thick cut fries...
I always thought that thin fries taste better than thick fries cause the thick fries I ate all lose to thin fries.
That's why when the fries came I did not have much hope in it, plus there are some skin (real potato skin) on the fries, so, ya....



And TA-DA, the fries!

As they predicted that having potato skin on the fries may scare some customers, they wrote something like "Don't worry, we are just showing some skin" on the fries packaging!
Cute huh? Ahahaha~

Ok, I think I remember what burger I ordered already!
It's something like BBQ chicken... *stares at the photo*
Opps! =p

Ok, and the rest are super random photos

17th Dec



Decided to paint my toe nails out of boredom.
The colour nice right? Hehehe
It's from The Face Shop (scream, zq!). I bought it in malaysia because there is a freaking 70% off for it!

And in case you don't know, despite having no computer nor internet access in my Aunt's house, I managed to stay online!
Why?
Look down



TA-DA!
That's not mine, I am not that rich...
My mei's friend, lol~



My main purpose in taking this photo is to show you guys that the fan has no outer casing or whatever you call it.
You should be able to know what I am referring to, lol~
But the picture turned out quite nice!
Hehehe, photographer in the making! *bhb*



The ice kachang I ordered for dessert after dinner!
I took a photo of it cause it's pu-li-ti!
Cannot ah? Ahahahahahaha~


18th Dec, cousin came to visit Aunt, and my sis decided to go on a photo spree...
First up, pictures of my Aunt!





Wa lao, why take picture of Aunt in this kind of pose?

Ok, anyway, will you even believe me if I say that she is around 60 years old??
No right? See the first picture, her skin is still in very good condition!
And in fact, sad to say, it's better than mine!! *cries at one corner*
My dad (aunt = dad's older sister) also look younger than he actually is!
So, it runs in the family! *prays that I kana the genes too!*



A picture of her kitchen!
Although her house is small, it's very comfy and clean!
Plus her house always got this nice smell which my sis and I conveniently called it "姑姑家的味道"
And our clothes washed by my aunt will have that smell!
Nice, I like~ =D



Picture of my cousin (the one nearer to the camera facing the back) and my aunt in my aunt's room!
Basically we just lay three beds on the floor and each of us (my sis, my aunt and I) will occupy one bed!
Awesome, can ROLL! Ahahahaha~

Actually I have a picture of my sis with my Aunt but she happened to see my this post in construction .
When she saw the pictures she demand that I take the picture down because she thinks that she looks fat in that pic.
So, there is nothing I can do....

To sis: Wear more tight clothes! It really makes you look slimmer!



Aunt's wardrobe!
And since I sleep at the bed nearest to the wardrobe, I will be quite conscious not to get too near to the wardrobe (or better, stick to it) so that I do not hit the wardrobe and make noise.
See, so considerate! =p=p=p=p=p=p=p






Pretty pictures of her window and all.
So dreamy~



A picture my sis took secretly...
Since I don't look ugly nor stupid (thanks god), I decided to post it!
And my beloved green tea is in it too! WOOO~ (Scream victoria, SCREAM!)
Ahahaha, sorry, a bit high now =p



Another secretly taken picture! While I was writing down our handphone number!
In case you find this picture familiar, scroll down to the long-hair-to-short-hair post =p



I know, I look very stupid here.
With the flash making my face look so oily and me blinking which caused it to look like as if I didn't open my eyes.
But....
It's the only picture I took with my Aunt!! D=

And you see my hair! See see!



Me using the computer!
Same, taken secretly by my sis...
Good thing I don't look ugly/stupid in any of them! *phew*





Jagabee!!!!!!!!
Bought 2 at $3+ , cause there is a promotion =p
And I was like a pig that day, within one hour or so I finished the two that I bought together with my sis.
But I ate more than her....

I am growing horizontally man... D=

Just in case you think that's all, well IT'S NOT!

Just a warning, if you don't wish to see two siao zhar bors you may choose to click that red "x" button there.
Thanks for reading the post still =D

And if you think you can tahan our craziness, you may continue reading, AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Ahahahahahhahahahahahahaha~

Ready??


Ok, good.







Here it goes~












In case you are wondering, this one up here and below ones were all taken by the webcam of that green sony vaio laptop.


Face blocked =.=
Sorry, new to camwhoring, ahahahahaha =x





My sis like kana shot by the shooting stars in the face, lol~



Sad faces....
Cause it's not our horoscope for the frame, lol~



Get it get it? Our pose + scorpion!!
I look like a long-haired ghost....
Ok, I have always looked like a long-haired ghost when i cover my face with my hair =p
No more now though....



Ok, this is totally random and unrelated to the horoscope, ahahahahahhahahaha~



Yes, I am diao-ing my dramatic sis =p



It took us quite some time to finally position our mouths near the strawberries to look like as if we are eating them.....
Heng aunt not looking when we are doing this....
If not she will think that we have something wrong, ahahahahaha~



And my sis accidentally pressed two times and we took another one in a different frame but same pose....
Lol~



Sister love~
Ok, I admit, it's kinda lame.... =.=



In case you don't get it, I am trying to look sad cause my sis took the pillow.

Ok, no more!

"No more?!"
Yes, NO MORE!
"YAY!"
Yes, celebrate my dear~
"No more picture liao, why you still here?!"
Ok la, I shoo la!
Bye~

Say goodbye...

{EDITED}

...to my long hair










2nd picture:
My sis tried to take a picture of me and I had nothing else to take cover and therefore I used that pathetic small bowl....
I know, it looks stupid.
BUT CAN YOU JUST LOOK AT THE HAIR? D=

3rd picture:
This was taken when I am bored....
Ya, hiao la, I know...


4th picture: I tied bun to sleep, and wanted to take down the time when my hair is curly, cause before you know it, it's gone! D=
Cause my hair is "awesome-ly" straight and refuses to curl... =.=

And say hello....















... to my new shorter hair





And you add the two above up,
equals to.....


THIS!

Lol, I seriously think that I look like a gi na (child) in this hair.
But I am quite okay with the hair except that it curl upwards, like 翘起来 one....

And I am wearing the hangzhou trip windbreaker (comfy thing!) on the second picture and Altius (I hope I spelt it correctly...) PE t-shirt!
See, I love huayi so much, lol~

I know there are people out there who will find it a waste to snip off my long hair. (MY SIS!)
Because there are people who are envious of my hair (still my sis!) because it's long, smooth and all.
I know, a bit bhb of me to say that.
But since that hair is gone, just let me be shameless once la!

I used to be quite proud of my hair, really!
Cause it's nice la, and it's not like only I think it's nice.
Everytime people praise my hair I would feel happy! Like there is something on me that I can be proud of, something that people would love to have it but they don't.

However, I wanted a change.
Like a change to mark a new beginning (was wanting to do it on 1st jan but was too lazy. No motivation, lol~)
Then aloe asked if I want to cut hair with her, so i agreed! =D

"你不会心痛meh?"
Actually, not really....
It wasn't as heartbreaking as I thought leh.
Just, the fact that my hair grows freaking slowly make me hesitated a bit
Cause if it turned out badly, that totally equates to die!
Lol~


During the hair cut.....




And I twitpic-ed this, lol~

Photos credit to aloe, who secretly took these photos....
怎么都不拍美一点?
Lol, just look at the hair can?

Ah qi, don't say my expression is the attraction to that photo again.... =.=
*cooks ginger soup(姜汤)*

Eh, tell you one funny thing!
Because I was in a rush to buy dinner back for my sis if not her stomach will be flat (肚子扁掉), I actually rushed out of the shop WITHOUT PAYING!
Lollollollollol~
I only realised it when I was waiting for the damn bloody slow 335!
Then I sms-ed wy saying sorry and all that, then she replied saying that she didn't realise until I sms-ed her!

What? I am not trying to cheat her money hor!
I paid her on monday (10/1)!
The main point is, WE ARE TWO BLUR SOTONGS!
With her being the more blur one =p

Ok, that's it!
Nothing much to talk about also....

Omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomogmmomgomgomgomgomgomogmogmgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg!
Going to take O lvl results later on in the afternoon....
Oh man, SCARY! D=

Let's hope those whom I care will get the results they want!
Mine too! Lol~


Got back the results, not what I wanted...
But I will not be emo!
No one likes emo sugarcane right? D=

Countdown, the sims way

Hello people!
Yes! Sugarcane is back!! *jumps around in joy*

I am typing this with a straight face again...

So today, I am gonna blog about countdown!

Yeah~ Excited?
*speaking to the wall*

I am glad I put that flag counter over there <<<
If not I will continue to think nobody reads my blog (although it's not like a lot reads my blog) and will think that I am a girl who constantly talks to herself in her blog and then get depressed and then close the blog.

Lol~
"Wa lao, beating around the bushes! What you doing? Trying to make your post longer?!"
Ya, cannot?
Okok, countdown, countdown, HAPPY?!

Ok, I am still like a girl who constantly talks to herself....
So, I came back home at around 11pm, thinking that this countdown will just be like any other...
Watch the countdown on channel 8 and shout "5, 4, 3, 2, 1" alone (cause no way my daddy will do that) and then spam in fb and twitter "happy new year"...

Me: "Daddy, I am back to countdown with you!"
*silence*
Daddy: "Countdown with me for what?"
I know, I tweeted this.
But this is to show how un-excited daddy is for countdown, and how it's like I confirm, guarantee plus chop will not have an awesome countdown with my dad.
However.....
My daddy suggested to go to the basketball court near our house!
To play....




THIS!
I know, in your head now is full of question mark cause you have never saw this before.
Well, this is sort of a traditional toy.
See that stick with the rubber band there?
You use it and shoot the thing on the right (will be referred as "thingy" for the rest of the post) up into the sky, and it will fall, spinning, with the "wings" becoming helicopter-like!

And because it works like rubber band shooting, and some of you might have kana-ed before, when you shoot with rubber band, sometimes the rubber band end up hurting yourself.
I had quite a few times whereby the thing hit my hand, causing my left hand to have some minor injury. Pictures later.

Ok, it's hard to explain.

Let my daddy do a demo for you!



OH MY FREAKING GOD?
Woah, finally there is videos!!!!!

And if you think that is high, well, that is still not the highest!
My daddy is not really satisfied at the height he shot because he saw boys shooting it even higher.
Shocking?
I help you answer. YES!



And I shall be a bad girl and show you guys a video of a failed attempt of my dad's demo.
Lol, the main purpose is to let you guys see how we can hit ourselves. D=

Yes, the one who said "FAIL" in the video is obviously me!


Then after the demo, we decided to compete on who shoot the furthest!



First round...
The left hand side and the further one is daddy's D=

Then after a few rounds....



The difference got shorter!

And....



Ours landed on the same spot!
Ok, this is taken in flash with my new handphone (Sony Ericson Vivaz pro! Oh yeah~)
Sorry for the bad quality...
I like the phone, just the pictures taken with this phone during low light intensity sucks D=

And finally....



I WON!!
OH YEAH OH YEAH~~
After SO MANY tries!!!!!!!
I thought I would not be able to win him since I am a big noobie who keeps shooting her own hands!
Once again, sorry for the freaking lousy quality....
*breaks phone*
Nahhh, obviously joking!
New one leh, will heart pain one!


And then we started to see who shoot the highest!
Ok, for this, no matter how hard I tried, I still cannot win my daddy! D=
He even taught me how to shoot you know?!
We are using the same damn shooting method leh!
We exchanged the thingy (with wings one) and even exchanged the rubber band to see whether it's because of the thingy, or the skill.
It's skill. I cannot win him!!! D=

Then randomly, I looked up.
Me: "不知道如果从很高,好像从十一楼射下来会是怎样的。。。"
Daddy: "你要不要试试看?我去十一楼射下来。"



And there you go, the video above.
I know, it's quite hard to see the thing.
Just try to focus on the purplish light.
But it's quite pretty when it falls down, just when it is very high up there, I can hardly see it.

The basketball court we played at is the RC (resident's committee), and there is sort of a mini countdown party there (consisting of one TV with the channel 8 countdown and another TV for karaoke)
My dad is an RC member (vice-chairman leh~ Lol) and there is another RC member there with her daughter
Being so forever good to other people's children, my dad gave his friend's daughter one of the thingy, in yellow!
Not being jealous or complaining here, at least he compares us to his friends' children less often already...



And this is the little girl! With her mother aka my dad's friend behind her!
Lol, she initially wanted to shoot, but she spotted my camera and decided not to!
So cute~ Camera shy, haha.
Then I told her that her face won't be seen (it's real right? It's quite dark and my hp camera is being shitty again)
And she shot! LOL~
好可爱的小妹妹~

And then after competing for a few rounds, my dad shoot the thingy again and managed to catch it as it falls!
As we are tired of constantly picking the thingy up after we shoot (Ok la, not we, is him, cause it's mostly him who pick them up =p), we decided to play it this way!
Shoot it up, and catch it! It's more fun playing this way!



TA-DA!
A video on how we play! With the little girl in it too!



And this is the injury I kana-ed that night on my left hand.
I know, not obvious/don't look serious.
But, imagine hitting myself with that thingy can hit until got injury.
That totally shows how many times I shot myself on the hand... D=

OH! I have one interesting thing to tell you guys!!

Remember the countdown party in the RC I mentioned earlier?
Well, when I looked at my watch (yes, I have a watch! =D) and saw that it is going to be 12am soon, I suggested that we go inside the RC and like countdown with them.
But, we are a tad too late.
When we got in, everybody was like "1! Happy new year!"
Wa lao.... Lol~

Ok, that's it!
No more, bye~

I lied, I got something to announce.
I CUT MY HAIR TODAY!! SHOULDER LENGTH, BUT IT TURNED OUT QUITE SHORT!

Excited to see my new hair cut??
Wait lor~ Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha~

Baking cookies

HELLO!
Sugarcane is here to update again!

On 14th Dec last year, bh and I decided to visit yx, wy, ah ma and vic at work!
Also known as 探班,lol.

I remember chasing one 154, but I missed it still.
Little did I expect that vic, bh and ah ma are all on that bus D=
So in the end I had to wait for another 154 while sweating away (cause I ran) in the hot sun, alone!

And I was late, the latest one out of 7 people!
Even yx is earlier than me! DDD=

Then....
We walked to their workplace.

We entered the place, which is bloody freaking BIG!
There are SUPER A LOT of things there!
Like yx said, it's a cooking paradise!
You can find almost EVERYTHING about cooking there!

One department that really captured my attention is the cups.
"Huh?! What's wrong with you?"
If YOU went there and see how bloody freaking pretty those cups are there, you won't say this.
Really, the cups there are SO pretty!
I actually THOUGHT of buying one home or give people as present you know?!
But.... Tight budget plus I am a clumsy sugarcane.
I scared the cups will "piang" in my hands D=

Then after walking, we went to the Bake & Go section to look for ying xiang!
After some talking, bh and I decided to share one can of cookie dough and bake cookies together!

There were three flavours available, strawberry, vanilla and chocolate.
I am not a fan of strawberry, or should I say, I don't like strawberry.
The fruit itself and anything strawberry-flavoured
And vic strongly discourage vanilla, therefore we chose chocolate!

We also got to choose the toppings, peanuts and chocolate chips
Me no like peanuts, therefore, chocolate chips won! Lol~

So below will be all the "aw lu lu" (black) cookies, lol =p




And this is out work station!
We got to choose because we are like the only ones there, lol.
The can on the left hand side of the picture is the can of dough!

First step, was to kneed the dough.
I was the one who kneed the dough.
I even took the dough up and like throw it into the pail/container/whatever you call it
Hehehehe!
Hey, I am not the only one hor!
Yx said some other customers did it too!!

我只是有样学样!
要怪就怪电视吧~ =p

And the next step of course is to shape the dough!
Initially we both have totally no idea on what shapes to do.
Then I went to try to spell "happy plants" while bh tries to do her heart
But I gave up halfway, not enough dough D=
Instead, I decided to do the plants, as in like the plant itself, the shape.
I did 7 out of the 8 plants, with baohui doing the potato (chip), lol~

Even after the plants are done, we still have quite a lot of dough left.
After some discussion with yx, bh and another staff there, bh made a dice and I think that's all?
I did the mickey, donut and ball, lollll

After shaping, the second last step is to decorate them with the chocolate chips!
And we were lucky, cause the previous customer left some nuts, so we got to use the nuts as well!

And we decorate and decorate.....
We took quite a long time, like really!
But good thing is that we are the only customers there, so, we can take as long as we want, no need to rush =p

And....






TA-DA!

Last step of course is pop it into the oven and bake la!
Lol~~
And while waiting for it, bh and I went to the bistro there to eat lunch



The decoration there!
You see it? It's all SPOONS joined together!
So pretty and creative, isn't it?



While waiting for our food.
Same reason as to why I didn't tilt the picture, cause I think I look nicer this way.
乖啦~



The fish and chips is mine, the fries are baohui's
The fish and chips don't look much, but trust me, it's bloody filling!
I feel so full after eating it! But it's quite nice! =D

And after eating, we went back to check out our cookies! =D









TA-DA!!
A little disappointing.

Cause no. 1
The lines I drew like gone (except the ones on sugarcane)! D=
Making the plants look less like what they are supposed to be...

Cause no. 2
My mickey don't know why blended into a I don't know what....
And baohui's dice, the dice she spent so much time, deflated!
It was initially up and standing, really 3-D dice, but after a "sauna" in the oven, it became like a pancake, a mini one, lol~

But still, as least it presentable la.
Not bad for first timers already! =D

"Solo" pictures below!



Potato chips! The only plant done by bh!
Lol, vic say hers just looks like a cookie, a normal until cannot normal cookie.



Garlic! The smallest one out of all the plants!
Wanyi says it looks like "?!?!?!"
Lol, and bh say hers look like small carrot.
Ok, to a certain extent, I agree to this one =p



Onion! Apparently, both vic and wanyi thinks that it looks like a strawberry...
GOT MEH? D=
Would it look less like a strawberry if there were (vertical)lines?



Chilli! Wa lao, don't know what happened to the mini leaves =.=
And laopo said hers look like lady's finger! *cries*



Ginger!
And zq was happy cause hers is like one of the biggest in the plants.
Too bad, she didn't get to eat it, lol =p



Aloe vera! One of the hardest!!
No comments from others for this, but I think it kinda look like three blades of grass =p



Carrot! My lines! D=



ME! Wanyi says it looks like "WHATTT?!"
Wa lao.... D=

We gave the onion to ah ma, carrot to yx (she is the first one to eat the cookies), aloe to wanyi, potato chips to vic.
So the only one that didn't get to receive her cookie is zhenqi cause hers was not with me (ZQ, GO TAKE FROM AH BU! Lol)

The cookies a bit soft in the inside, because we made it too thick.
When we are making them, yx told us not to make it too thin, and we followed her advice and... *sigh*
Lol, nvm nvm, next time do thinner can le =D

AH BU AH! YOU WHEN WANT GO AGAIN?

Saturday, 1 January 2011

It's 2011!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

It's 2011~~~~~~~~~!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOO~

Eh, actually I am typing this with a straight face, lol~
Not much excitement, really...
If it's in the past I would be ranting how much I don't want to go school and blah blah blah like some (no, most. No, ALL!) of my juniors would be doing now.
Yes, evil senior to the action!

But....
Now I sorta miss school...
Cause you have nothing to anticipate now.
No events, no taking-bus-together-on-school-outing (I like that feeling, really! And it's not only recently, I have ALWAYS liked that feeling)...
Kayaking, swimming, ranting how much you hate the school, how you wish to pon certain class/events.....
No more.....

Wa lao, become emo post liao!!

Okokok, no more emo, ok?

Good.

So, it's a brand new year!
And I hope I can have a brand new life! (yes, my life = lifeless now)
The one I want.
But I have been talking about it since so long ago....
Less than 1/4 of what I promised myself before o levels, what motivated me during the hard times are fulfilled...

Okok, no emo.

So, here are my wishlist!

- New hair! (yes, still thinking. Can't help la =p)
Perm and cut fringe (bangs, act cute, i know) and cut hair (SHORT!) and dye (I am thinking twice about the super black now...)!
But of course, I will do them one by one.
Cause given my hair condition now, if I do them ALL at one go, my hair will be fried!
Literally like 杂草! D=

- SHOPPING!!! (bugis, far east / spree)
"Wa lao, still shop?"
what what what? I HARDLY ever shopped since O level ended you know?
D=

- Get the results I want for O!
Utmost important thing, please AT LEAST fulfill this!!
Or I jump down!!!!! 我真的会跳下去的!
*takes chair*
*act want jump down*
*fake cry*

*In newscaster voice* The above is the result of watching too much drama

- Do the things I want!
"What you want?"
SHHHH~ It's a secret!! =p
But... No courage, no motivation, no chance...

I know I know, no emo!

If this post happened to really be on 12.00am @ 1/1/11 (I hope it works!), you know it's a scheduled post...
Ok, great, blogger don't let me schedule my post...
What?!
At least I bothered hor!!

Wa lao, I didn't expect myself to crap so much sia...
