i finally found time off to blog..

saturday was my grandma's birthday, the whole family gathered at my da uncle's to have a barbeque.. it was really fun.. though i didnt cook much, i certainly ate up alot of food.. :p my third aunt went with another aunt to the swiss butchery and spent the whole morning there, coming back with loads of marinated meat.. korean syle beef, chicken and prok kebabs, beef roast, chicken wings, lamb chops, a whole salmon and fresh pork and beef sausages.. it was such a spread.. yummy.. my family bought satay from bukit merah with a yummy pineapple and nut sauce, another aunt brought homemade potato salad, fresh italian garden salad and yoghurt for the various meats.. another aunt brought ba kwa to be grilled on the bbq and my grandma prepared chilli squid and the salmon with lemon and rosemary.. i was totally filled.. everything was absolutely yummy.. after that, we went back inside the house for fresh US giant strawberries and dessert wine.. of course my cousins and i took a glass each, anyway dessert wine is much sweeter and not as dry though the alcohol content is slighty higher.. the grapes that made it were from Lebanon and were left on the vines longer to induce its maximum sweetness.. we also tried a red wine but found it to be slightly spoiled because it smelt like old carpets and was a tad sour (vinegar).. we threw it away soon after.. :p after the wine, my grandma tend blew out the candles on a 'lana' cake.. its that famous chocolate fudge cake but it just didnt seem nice like the other time i tried it.. but i guess its ok because its not machine made and each homemade.. it costs about $73.00 per 1kg (in case any of you want to buy one for urself) and apparently the old woman who makes it keeps her recipe secret still by locking herself in a room and making the batter.. lolz, what a fuddy-duddy.. :p

i'm just sick and tired of the many lessons that i have during the holidays.. urgh.. so sick and tired.. i just wanna just take the week off and wake up late and just laze around without tuition, homework and lessons.. geez... so guh-ross.. the lousy show are the worst.. i have absolutely NOTHING to watch on telly.. i've finished 'desperate housewives' and lent them to my aunt and there's nothing else on television.. and mixedjuice is still supposed to help me burn 'america's next top model' season3.. otherwise there's nothing to watch..

haiz.. so tired.. (who wants to watch 'batman begins'?)
