People dont realize how hard it is to become a dancer.

Ballet will always remain a part of my life. (:


12 days.

getting cranky without my mac. ):

Hello,

I’ve been an avid user of Apple’s products and have nothing but praises for the items i’ve been lucky enough to lay my hands on…or rather spend my disposable income on. I love the brand, despite the rather conspicuous product names and unfortunate events in recent years. Thus, you can only imagine my horror when i received an email from Sapura Synergy Singapore Pte Ltd stating that they had JUST received my Macbook for repair on 17 April 2012 when I had clearly remembered dropping it off at the service centre on 5 April 2012. Unless of course the seperation from my dear Mac made me delirious with agony so much so that I could not remember the passing of time. This was worse than the tramautizing memory I had as a kid realizing Santa Claus was actually my Mum, discovering Justin Bieber was actually Male, using a Windows 7 operated computer to send this mail now, and … you get the gist.

12 days to drop off a Macbook for servicing due to a faulty camera and weak battery life is not seemingly long compared to the amount of time I took saving up the money required to procure an iPad (still saving up though). 12 days just to drop off a Macbook for servicing because of a faulty camera and weak battery life is not seemingly long as compared to the 9 months of preganancy a Woman has to endure before childbirth. 12 days to drop off a Macbook for servicing over a faulty camera and weak battery life is not long compared to the rebuilding effort Japan is facing after being wrecked by Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant’s disaster. Ahh, 12 days.

As mentioned above, I love the brand and have no intentions of switching back to Windows. However, it is such a shame that a mere simple act of sending my Mac in for servicing could bring about such intense emotions, if i have to say. I understand that there might be some lapses but 12 days is well… short seemingly, but long for a student like me desperately wanting it back for the preparation of my exams starting 30 April 2012. Some help here, perhaps?

Regards,

A very frustrated student.

Simplicity.

An email i stumbled upon buried beneath countless other work related mails.

Backdated to 2 March 2005.

Totally struck a cord with me.

Talk about lost innocence eh..?

Quiet and simple celebration with the family. <3


Phuket 2011

Back from Phuket, Thailand! (:

Phuket presented me with the darker side of tourism and how the society operates on a whole. Vice, prostitution, the apparent lack of feminism, scams, commercialization; hedonistic lifestyles to be precise. It was…saddening and opened my eyes to many lessons and issues that can never be learnt through the mass media or text books per se.

On the flip side of the coin, it was a simple trip made together with the JC clique. For once, it was for leisure instead of it being work related. Cheap beers, overwhelming amount of tomyamsoup, green curry and mango sticky rice to recharge the weary souls. Not to mention the endless haggling, bargain hunting and rows upon rows of counterfeit goods.

Phuket, I’ll be back. (:


thankyou

This is for the outstanding bunch of people that made a significant difference in my life for the year 2011.

They came from all walks of life and vastly differently backgrounds; old college friends, juniors i never knew existed, peers that promised to bring me out for a breakfast…that never came, companions whom I had the honor of working together to slay monsters and to kill heroes despite our very obvious skills and level differences, a NS buddy who introduced me to the hidden world inside his PSP, comrades that fought side-by-side in the treacherous grounds of zouk-ressic park, an Angel that brought much joy and laughter into my life, a Goddess that had a penchant for the bottle, fellow university classmates that threw caution into the wind when it came to academic work only to find ourselves burning multiple midnight oil to meet deadlines and most importantly, a Neighbour that taught me the importance of humbleness, imparted me the lost art of pangsai-ing and appreciating the beauty of Running.

This is for you people.

Thankyou, for simply being in my life.

(:

Such intense emotions and the singer is only 15!!

 


Japanese Curry!

After a short hiatus from the kitchen, leexinru is back and cooking once again! (:

(YES, even though he has one last exam paper tomorrow)

He finds cooking therapeutic and nothing beats having a proper homecooked family meal.

Ingredients (Suitable for 5)

5x Fresh Chicken Thighs

2x Onion (diced)

2x Large Potatoes (diced)

1x Pack of Green Peas

1x Golden Curry Mix

Methods

Steam diced potatoes for 10 mins while bringing a pot (2.5x cups) of water to boil.

Why steam the potatoes before hand..?

Personally, this is to speed up the cooking process as more often than not, the potatoes take the longest time to be cooked if added directly into the curry without steaming it prior.

Add diced onions and chicken thighs into a pot of boiling water over low heat.

Let it boil for 10 mins

Add in Curry Mix, diced potatoes and green peas, stirring occasionally to ensure the currymix dissolves completely.

Boil for another 5 minutes and bring it to simmer.

End Product!

(:
