Starry Starry Door Tags are finally completed!

And here’s mine!

Met up with the other P&Ps for hall prod today, spent around 2 hours trying to come out with the T-shirt design. It’s quite fruitful today, cos at least we came out with a few alright ones. Not like the prev one, we didnt have any real output. Great Work!

btw, these are only preliminary…

This is the 2nd year i participated in my hall’s night cycling event. Wee! It’s absolutely fun, the more i cycled the more energetic i become. Haha i dunno why.

I got into hall production committee this year as publicity, so for this event, i joined the hall prod team also, together with OG Luka as Bravo Company. Oh yah, this year’s night cycling team is Exercise Rising Sun. We are split into 2 groups of 3 companies each to reach our goal. So military yet so funny.Anyway, the theme is really not important at all. It’s only a story to start off with, and no ending….

This year’s route is from Hall to East Coast Park, via holland road and nicoll highway. Though the route is less exciting than last year’s, i really think it’s cool to cycle along the CBD area like nobody’s business. Haha

I even went past the place i am working now.

See all the super blur pictures, i took them with my handphone while i was cycling. Ha, am i a good cyclist.

We reached east coast before dawn, when the sky is still dark, hoping to catch a glimpse of the sun rise. Then as the sky began to lighten up, but yet showing no signs of the “bright red salted egg”, i thought there isn’t any chance liao. But then after a while, after the sky has already brightened up, traces of red light began to emerge among the cloudy horizon. And soon…  we got to see our “Rising Sun” at last!

Yeah…. told u the story is not important at all, the JCRC ppl didnt show any signs of exclamation or continuing of the story when the sun is up. Except that the audience began to take pictures of the sun rise while the JCRC is trying to give away the medals for the inter block games.

Hope i will be there for night cycling next year….. my final year….. final semester!!!!!

I like staying in hall, do my own laundry, cooking, cleaning, and enjoying the quiet moments of my life. To me, it’s very relaxing and enjoying, as they are the rare moments of my life when it is slow. So recently, i got myself a new frying pan from ikea, for the main purpose of cultivating my creativity in cooking.

I got this idea when i went to Raffles City last week. Out of the Pan and crepes! Well, i can’t make crepes, but i can always get substitutes! I got the Gyro bread from carrefour @ Suntec. It’s a kind of unleavened bread i think. Looks cool to me. Together with the baby butterhead lettuce and black pepper roasted chicken, it makes a very satiable meal.

Ingredients:

Gyro Bread, Roasted Chicken, Lettuce, Cheese and Honey

1. Heat the gyro bread on a pan, without oil, until i heats up or become bloated

2. Remove the bread from the pan and put cheese on top of the bread.

3. Heat the chicken on the pan

4. Place the chicken on the bread, on top of the cheese, so that the cheese will melt.

5. Top it with some lettuce and roll it up

6. Place the rolled bread back on the pan, and heat it to melt the cheese and seal the opening.

7. Eat it hot on the pan!

Ok, firstly, the egg shouldnt be like dat, i’m quite good with frying egg ok. Just that the wok i used is already a bit cannot make it with all the scratchings, which result in the stickyness of the egg to the wok.

This is my first attempt to cook maggie mee goreng, and first failure ok. Don’t believe can see this -> http://takeuaway.wordpress.com/2007/02/07/dennis-fried-noodles/. I tried the same old way too many times le, so want to try something different.

Ingredients: garlic, onion, potato, luncheon meat, tomato, ketchup and a pinch of salt.

I think i shouldn’t put in the garlic first, it got “chau ta” v fast. I previously thought it would turn golden brown and stay there :p

Then i add the potatos (with skin) into the wok. I tried to remove the skin with my dining knife, but as you might have guessed, it doesn’t work out well. So with the thought that potato wedges also comes with skin, i decided not to try peeling the potato anymore. I added more oil so that it would be more cooked with it’s thickness. Hmm….. too oily i think

Then when the potatoes turned golden brown, i added the other ingredients to fry. After which is the noodles. I only have ketchup to season the noodles. Found it too bland, and added a pinch of salt.

Result:

Noodles still too bland, tomato doesn’t go well with the ketchup, taste horrible. Garlic is totally black. Only the luncheon meat is edible.

Haha! I’m playing weiqi for Hall 2 ihrg today. Our squad is actually quite pathetic, not much people wants to play, i think mainly because of the new Hall Allocation Scheme - no matter how many cca’s you’re involved in, they only count the one of it with the highest commitment. And i think weiqi is quite a game very few people knows how to play.

Today, we got our rec sect joining us as player 5, to complete the 5-man team. She just get a crash course on how to play weiqi one hour before the competition :p

Today’s schedule is quite xiong, 5 matches from morning 1030 to night 1030! Each person is given 45minutes per match.

That’s hall 8 function room, where the competition is held.

This is the result of my first match, I’m holding on to the black seeds, and i won, hehe!

But i lost the 2nd, 3rd and 4th match…….

Anyway, i’m not so keen with the matches in the afternoon. I was playing real fast, around 2 seconds per move on the average…. I’m more keen to join other people for daidee or bridge in between the matches…. :p

Nevertheless, i won the 5th match. Anyway, my first and 5th matchs’ opponents don’t really know how to play, keep doing mistakes, like i do. But i realized my mistakes after i put down my seeds, and my these 2 opponents don’t. hehe

So i won! But out of the 5 matches, my team lost 4…. and we still got 2 matches tmr….. sian….

Side Track a bit:

I noticed hall 11’s weiqi set is so cleverly designed.

See the portholes? You just anyhow dump the seeds in the container, and the seeds will fit nicely into the holes neatly. When playing, just put the container on top of the black lid you see on the right.

The seeds will pop up for easy access!!
