wow, the longest silence ever… i haven’t blogged openly for about… almost half a year? i don’t even know what title to name for my 1st 2010 blog post… hence, untitled :P

no, this time is not the “busy” or “sick” or “away” excuses… but i took a halt in blogging ’cause i thought my past posts are pretty emotional and, sometimes, mischievous. and there’s this period of time, i thought… i’d better reserve them to myself. in fact, i just wanna isolate myself from feeling emo and negative for just a period of time, instead… learning to express them through speaking, rather than writing a huge bunch of texts that not many might have understood. and i think… there are certain experiences, that is better not to be recorded, or remembered. because, they certainly haunts.

well, another reason being… i have 9,000++ spam comments that irritates me every time i have the urge to blog. i am utterly lazy to do housekeeping as i get at least 10 spams per day… until yesterday i have decided, enough is enough, its time to spring clean. so i spent 3-4 ungodly hours cleaning all the unnecessary commentaries and installed this spambee plugin thingy. so now, i am pretty much spam-free!

so why do i decide to blog at such timing, like out of the blue?

well, i have Script Writing for this academic semester… so in order to keep the momentum going, i thought it would be good for me to resume blogging. also as people drop their (your) comments, i am able to discover my writing pattern, my emotions, and even my weaknesses.

also, i hope to keep track of what i do and what emotional whirlwind i’m gonna go through in 2010, and share with you, whom i have most probably been lost in contact for quite some time. so hereby, i thank you first for (still) reading.

by the way, today i said my first “no” to a job request. i always have trouble saying no, but looking at my current commitment and schedule… i cannot afford to add on any extra huge workload to decrease my leisure hours of sleep. will share with you regarding my academics timetable as soon as i secure them :) meanwhile, goodnight to y’all!

yayy, Avatar tomorrow! so far, it’s my 5th movie of the month :P

if you can figure out what Feei and i are planning to do, i’ll cook you a decent meal :)

well since i have a few packets of my favourite Assam Laksa instant noodles, and i have some time…

i shall have instant noodles for lunch!

carefully read the instructions…

1) Empty noodles and soup mix into 450ml (2 & a quarter cups) of boiling water.
so… how much exactly is 450ml?? what sort of cups do they use, is there a standard one? the cups in my dining room looks different!
2) Simmer for 2 minutes, with gentle stirring.
simmer soup mix & noodles together? it’s difficult to wash the dishes…
3) Serve immediately.

hmm… why not we just ignore the instant steps and do it my way instead?

okay, first and foremost, prepare everything & rinse the cooking instruments.

well, you never knew what crawled on them without your notice. so don’t be lazy, rinse them thoroughly!

then, choose a pot sufficient enough to fit your noodles, fill water and start boiling.

as the water boils, cut luncheon meat, lettuce & tomato… a petite size so they could easily fit through your mouth, then you won’t have trouble messing around with your food.

as for soup, i love pairing them with cubes of raw meat & fresh veges.
if it’s to serve instant noodles without soup, i love a pretty sunny-side-up to go with it, fry onion, and not forgetting the veges.

then, unwrap your favourite packet of instant noodles and remove the soup mix.

pour soup mix into empty bowl instead of the boiled water.

i prefer doing it this way… because if you pour them into the boiling water, it might not dissolve well enough. and besides, if you boiled too much water, the soup mix will not taste as good as it should be…

when the water starts boiling, empty the packet of noodles into the cooking pot. when it’s ready, it will be softened. use a chopstick/fork/whatever to check if it’s ready to be serve.

remember to switch off the gas stove!

next, pour water to mix with the powder…

control the amount of water, as per your own preference. (not too thick, not too watery)

stir the soup mix, until the powder dissolves.

pour noodle.

arrange lettuce.

arrange luncheon meat.

arrange tomato and…

…it’s ready to be served!

carefully handle the hot bowl of soup noodles.

hold the side of the bowl with your thumb & the bottom with your palm.

a picture of me & my bowl of lunch, to prove to you i can cook instant noodles!

thank God for the food before you start digging!

咱们来看看亚当和夏娃的制作过程吧！

当然要替原作者宣传宣传她佳作！
