Running away from Reality

A lot of my friends asked why did I not go back to Malaysia and support the Bersih 2.0 event that was held last Saturday.
For your information, I did only pass by a park near my place where there are this group of young people that were supporting Bersih with everyone wearing yellow holding banners and all. However there is not much sign of stress yet so calm and peaceful. *no polis mah*  I admit was too timid so I sat in the bus and stare at them from a distance after I went grocery shopping.

I came across the funny angry birds picture that very much describe this situation back in Malaysia.

Fat pigs: Policemen
Yellow: Supporters of Bersih 2.0
I hate the sleeping pig most! :/ :/

I guess Malaysia is the worse place to be in right now. And I pray and hope that God will turn this around *although it's very hard to do so* Friends, do be aware of this and keep praying.

Fair election is our future. And our future generations depend on us.

I know what you're thinking

I know what you're thinking. Is this a food blog or what? Hmm.. I shall answer that question.

It has been quite many posts that I've been posting about food and pastries/ desserts. The reason is that I've got nothing better to do lately than to be an ah Soh..Since I spent my time cooking, baking and eating. Simple life and of course the worse is that my tummy starts bulging abit. Just a lil bit. =/

Anyway, holiday is to relax and enjoy, agree? How can we, Malaysians not eat to relax, right?right? *winkwink*

Don't sigh at this post because what I am about to show you is last night's dinner and its about food AGAIN.  =9

I didn't go out much lately since the weather is terrible (rain and rain and rain and...) and winter is here so I rather be cozy at home than to go out and freeze.

The only thing that I'm really looking forward is my Boat Trip organized by my lovely lifegroup to Murray River for 3 days next Friday to Sunday. *cant wait!!!!* There will be so much time to fellowship and enjoy the wonderful scenery there whilst of course, delicious food!! (bbq, town hopping, fishing and much more..) Shall blog about it when I come back from that trip *yay* (n.n)v

Oh ya, last night's dinner! =D Only managed to grab a few pictures since everyone started digging into them as we are all hungry bungry :9 Greedy people..haha O.o Just kidding =P

 By someone special <3

Spinach with Seafood Special.

By my housemate.

Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs.

Sorry about the blur picture. It is caused by the steam coming out from the dish :P

The one and only. Moi! =3

Spicy Sesame Squid Special.

Now only I realise our dishes has a lot of S in them. =.=0 

What a coincidence!

I am glad that I can cook many more dishes than I thought I could.

Who wants to taste them?

Hehehe!

Aus Vs Mas Part I

1. The Awe-so-mous Shaker Pencil

Remember the first time we discover this Pilot Shaker Pen and say "WOAH" You shake and It pops out!
That was long time ago perhaps even more than 10 years I reckon'. But in fact, many or most Australians are so fascinated when we shake that thing. They were like "OMG..that is sooooooooo coooooooooool".

2. The Weirdest Advertisements

Click to view one this LAME AUSTRALIAN ADS link!

Malaysian advertisement is always so interesting and appealing however we have been cursing "enjoying" the noisy and entertaining  boring advertisements here in Australia. The love to shout in allll of their advertisements. SALE SALE SALE SALE blahblahblah *screamed into our speakers* then they will go super fast speed in their speech and end them like so suddenly..OMG..Can't you do better than that? Or even make something more creative? Sometimes, what they do is purely HAMSAP and makes no sense. wth. That's the worse. Most of the time my housemates and I will be like "what's that gonna do with this? O,o *stunned*

I MISS

3. The Doughnuts Bagels

Finally bought one today and tried it after looking at them so long hanging on the rack in the shop. It was the last bagel and I wanted to try them so badly because it really shaped like a doughnut but apparently have a very different taste. Never really have chance to taste the rest but it's much cheaper than the actual cinnamon doughnut that they sell back in Malaysia. Here's a picture.

 Blueberry Bagel

Look at the texture. It's quite hard like bread and the blueberry smell is just running through your senses when you are about to bite it. I think it does not taste as good as doughnuts but maybe I didn't get to taste it HOT. Shall add some melted butter on it. =D

4. The Transportation

I admit most of the time in Malaysia my butt spends half the day sitting in the car seat while my legs placed on the car mat. However, this is not the case in Australia. My feet are constantly moving/walking around that's why I know my leg calves are getting stronger each day *not a good thing I guess* since muscular legs are not fit for women females.

Not a good thing in my opinion.

Nicer right? =3

Anywaysss, beauty is not everything but health is. So I bet I can have a healthier lifestyle here compared to the rest of the Malaysians that travel by car A LOT. The transportation (buses, trams) here are super efficient. 5 min means 5 min or even earlier. *when will Malaysia learn to be punctual?* tsk tsk tsk.

5. The Popcorn

You know how we use to crave for popcorn everytime we get pass by TGV or GSC. Here in Australia, Malaysians just got to stop eating popcorn because they will cause high blood pressure. There's too much salt in popcorn. Imagine that! :( Maybe some of you might prefer salty popcorn but I hate them! Really hate. Caramel popcorn I MISS YOU THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSS much. And for all of you that is going to leave Malaysia for studies overseas, better eat them before you miss them. I got to make my own popcorn in the microwave and add caramel myself *sad case* =(

SALTED VS CARAMEL

Which do you prefer?

I will not be me. Without you.

When you're soaring so high, you must never forget who lifted you up from ground zero.

Not to mention, education, clothes, attitude, features and character are moulded by you as planned by our Father in heaven.

Even though I'm so busy studying, I still wish you Happy Father's day from the bottom of my heart. Just like how busy you are, celebrating my birthday every year without fail.

Love you dad. Much. <3 

*runs back to study* =3
