Blackberries crumble

After we got the berries.. we don't know what to do with it.. so I told my landlady that she can have it.. As a result, she made us Blackberry crumble! And it's super delicious!!!! :)
Best of all... I've got the recipe on how to make it... muahahahaha!!!!

Sorry, the pic a bit ugly.. because it's taken when we almost finished it.. :s


Crumble served with custard


Left the last bit

under 21

Yesterday, we went blueberries picking by the lakes.... There's plenty of those & it's quite tricky too...

Berries have thorny stems & there's another plant that always grow next to the berries that can sting you when u touch the tips of the leaves... I got sting 2 or 3 times, cut by the thorn 2 times... :(

Here's some pics of us doing berries picking.


Lake Windermere


Do I look under 21? :p


Ah Siau picking berries


The view as we go along picking berries


He's going to be my new coat.. muahaha


The last part was me ouching away as I got sting by the plant.. :(



So... after berries picking, we decided to pop in to Tesco to get a bottle of white wine and buy fish & chips for dinner.

We pick up a bottle of wine and I head to the cashier to pay... then the lady ask for my ID... I said I have none.. then she say she can't let me buy it because I look under 21... ahhahahhahaha
She just made my day! ehehhe :p
So I have to get him to pay... but even she guess that he's only 23... hahaaah...

We Asians always look younger than our age, whereas the Ang Mo looks older than their age...

under 21... can u believe that?! haha...

Negaraku

suddenly I start to whistle Negaraku tune... hahahaha... dunno y.... maybe to remind myself that I'm a Malaysian afterall... :)

Wanted to write about work stuff.... but just feeling very lazy to complain about it... so... nevermind...

I think everywhere is the same. There's always staff attitude problem, some stupid work policy that we can never understand why, work dissatisfaction, and bla bla bla....(yawn..) It's just up to us on how to handle it...
It's Sunday... so... whatever lar....

memories

suddenly feels like going to theme park and go through all the rides again... scream my lungs out..

so much fun when we were in Genting...
Mousy... ah... mousy.... I miss u lor....


The elephant ride... hehe


Before the dragon flies...


Before the ship starts to rock us away!


Mousy: Oh shit!
Me: Oh Shit
Dom: Oh Shittt!!!!

Whatever lah..

If I didn't leave my hometown, I would probably be in the same picture with her... proud parents, square hat on the head, and a paper that says MBA.

No.. instead, i choose to explore the world.... I choose to explore myself.

Regrets? Well... yeah... It's a lie if I say no... call it peer pressure, call it parents pressure... yes, I do feel the pressure to drop everything and go back to study again But then again, I keep on reminding myself of my dream. Dream that I'm not sure when it will be fulfilled. Oh well... God will decide on that...

Anyway... enuf of all the emo shit... Some good things happening in my hometown and my 2nd home in PG and i want to post my wishes here to them! :)

A big congrats to Ah Min & Mr Tham on their graduation.
Congrats to Joy & Edwin for the birth of their little baby boy.
Congrats to Penny & Ken on their wedding.

questions & tonnes of questions..

Have you ever suddenly stop everything that you are doing and think to yourself... what am i doing here? Why am i doing this?
I'm having this moment now... I wonder about my purpose here in UK. I don't know what am i doing here. I'm not sure what's gonna happen next.

Everyday, I walked to work. That 15 minutes of walks everyday made me think alot. I ponder about my future here. After my visa expires, what am i going to do next. Can I stay here longer? if not, do i go back to my hometown? Will there be jobs for me? If I don't, where should I go? maybe the next country to explore is US... maybe...

I thought about marriage. With our situation like this, will we ever be stable enough to get married? Or we will just continue to travel and forget about the marriage thing. Afterall, it's not cheap getting married nowadays.

Do any of you feel like this too sometimes? Or I'm just the only lunatic here with questions swimming crazily in my tiny brain.

If one day, God appears and He allow you to have a peek about your future life... will you do it or just let it happen naturally?

How to make me happy

I forgot that there's something else that can make me happy....

SHOPPING!!! :)

Hehehe...

I recently bought a pair of boots and a pair of skinny jeans. Now.. I'm searching for a jacket...

wahahahaha....

I'm going nuts.... anyway... show u my new boots & jeans hehehe

The boots are bargain from Clarks at only 20GBP & the skinny jean is from Dorothy Perkins at 15GBP



I'll shoot u if you say my legs are big!

SOoo happy....

Next, I should REALLY get some long sleeve shirts... winter is coming.... I don't want to die frozen in my bed... :s

Geram..geram..

Wah... asking these girls to come to work on Friday evening is like asking them to commit suicide!!!! Super susah....

And yet, everyday complain money not enuf, pay not good.... of course lar... you don't work extra hour, where got extra money... duh...

Geram lor...

rambling

I'm very tempted to go out and see the night life of the Lake District...

but I fear for my safety as there's been a lot of stabbing cases going around and it normally involve teenagers stabbing their friends... Dunno what is wrong with these people... Must be high on drugs or alcohol. A moment of highness that might cause some innocent life lost.. Is it worth it? I doubt...

Therefore I choose to stay at home. Gone online a thousand of times, not knowing what to do, the same music has been playing in the background a thousand of times too... I think it's time to get more new songs.

Dad has been pestering me to continue my degree, especially after attending my bro's convo recently... I'm tempted but that means it may cost alot if i choose to study here. I don't trust our local Uni... I just don't like how they work...discrimination...

Thinking of taking an online study... do I have such discipline to organise my time? Well.. maybe... If I continue to live alone.

Something has to be done soon... before i die of boredom

Should i take part time study? Should I take another job?

Maybe I should do both. I can fulfill my dad's wish, earn extra cash to cover for the study cost and keep boredom away.

English celebration

Tonight, I join Rob & Becky (My landlord) for their celebration of a new born baby. It's a wonderful and informal celebration.

We drank a 20 year old champagne before we have our meal. Rob's mom make Lasagna and it's absolutely delicious..

English celebration is different from what we normally have in Chinese culture. Chinese culture, red eggs, Ka cha ma (for those in Kuching) and the poor mom in confinement for 1 month, cannot shower.. wah lao... kesian lor..

Ang mo ler... after give birth.. like nothing happen, continue to drink champagne, eat all the normal food.. no such thing as confinement, they are allowed.... encourage actually to shower to be clean..

It's nice to stay with an english couple... It's a great experience to learn about their culture :)




That's the bear that i bought for their baby and that's their new-born baby, Alex :)

rain.. rain..go away...

Ok.. enough of talking about gloomy stuff.. the weather here doesn't really turns better... goodness... the rain should really get a life and go to Malaysia...:p
let's talk about something else... hmm... let's talk about my hair... =D

My hair is getting a bit out of control... long and it gets tangled... like a bush.. on second thought. i think i look more like a lion now...

anyway.. any tips to tame it or at least make it abit tidy? any product or cream or hair stuff that you guys use tat is really good to cure that problem?

I tried baby oil.. sometimes it gets abit too oily for me... i like the shine though...

I thought of cutting of the hair... but bloody hell.. it's freaking expensive to get a hair cut! So have to tahan a bit before cutting it away..



help...

i don't want to become...
