Accident prone Ida was back in business last week with a "Bola" kena head and a cut finger... and all this, ladies and gentleman is on the left side of my body AGAIN!
Seems like the left side of my body likes being hit/cut/burned... WTF!
Back to my head... I was hit in a badminton court by a soccer ball. What are the odds actually to have a group of guys playing soccer in a badminton court and I got hit even though there's a plastic sheet (serving as a wall) in between the two courts!? God knows...
And as for my finger... The knife I was using at work was so freaking sharp that I only knew I cut my finger when it was bleeding profusely with blood dripping on the chopping board (@___@)" To all the guest who drank Corona that night, your lime came at the expense of my poor RINGMAN! :p
****
My kitchen is on turbo today and I baked a Malaysian Dessert called Kuih Bengkang :) Which was supposed to look like that....
But due to some "technical" (a.k.a. ingredients) difficulties my Kuih turned out white because i did not add any coloring into it! :p Lucky me, though it looks different... it taste exactly the same like what they sell in Pasar Malam back home!!
Woohoo... I'm in a chirpy and good mood today even though the weather is so dark and gloomy!

Facebook, a network that "spreads" information around with such a quick pace... and it is through Facebook I learnt the recent passing of my std 4 primary school teacher- 郑老师
One year in C class was the nightmare of my primary school life... embarrassing "ear pulling" antics outside other classrooms or in the open compound where EVERYONE in school can see, sitting behind the classroom for weeks, sitting OUTSIDE the classroom for weeks... Those were the days when I came out with different ideas daily to skip class...
Displease she showed when I went out for trainings and competitions in primary school. Yet when i see her once a year during high school sports day, she will tell me how happy she is for my success in sports. Only than I realised scolding me, jeering at me, and embarrassing me was her way to care and to teach me in the absence of my parents during primary school.
Only a mere "thank you" was said to her at my high school graduation; and I moved on to a larger city and to another country. Never again I saw her since that day...
For the past years, visiting her had never crossed my mind even though I think of her as one of the teachers that really cared for my well being... It is a regret I will again have to live with...
A reflection of life... it is short and unpredictable. May郑老师rest in peace. God bless.

Somehow life is so mundane that I have nothing much to blog about...
Same old "activities" of waking up in the morning, sending resumes, receiving rejection letters (email), cooking, "socializing" (kononya still got a lot of socializing going on!)...
Everyone "envy" the lifestyle I'm living, yet I envy what other's have... Something to do and work hard for, working towards graduation and careers... And there I am still standing at the cross road waiting for the word "you're hired".
People tend to like asking/saying/commenting...
"So you're still unemployed?"
"Are you sure you spend time job hunting?"
"OMG! Don't tell me you're working in a shoe shop full time!"
"I see you're enjoying your time what! Don't need look for a job dy la!"
"Aiya... don't need to look for a job la, go look for a husband!"
"Aiyo, Don't be so choosy with jobs!"
Comments like these seem to hit me hard nowadays. Like salt on an open wound... I don't know why I have became sensitive to comments/questions/assumptions of others regarding these "issues"... But it seems to sting hard although I know they do not mean to say it in a "mean" way...
It's just my mood... I guess... A sensitive low self esteem mood kicking in currently...

我爱上呆在厨房里的感觉
它让我暂时逃离了现实
把一堆还不能吃的东西
煮成能放在嘴里美味的食物
让我觉得我是有贡献的
小时候我问妈妈
“为什么你要花那么多时间去煮一道我们5分钟内可以吃完的东西?”
妈妈没答我。。。但我现在知道了
只要是在那5分钟内吃东西的人大声赞赏我的厨艺时
那种开心地感觉是无价的
这就是我近来得到唯一的存在价值的认同
***
今天心血来潮煮了道槟城美食Laksa! :)
这道也是第一次在没妈妈的监督下完成的 “艰难食品” 。味道不赖,卖相也OK!
真的很有成就感。:)
