Spagetti with the Italian

Hi everyone! It's been awhile since I last blogged, but now I'm a little bit more freed up so here's a new blogpost!

So awhile ago, my Italian friend - Antonio made a nice lunch for my flatmate & I. We had some yummy, authentic spagetti and it was really good.


So this is Antonio de Nicolo, our "naked" chef for the afternoon..




Our chef posing by the stove..




My flatmate, Sneha from India, deciding to join in with the cooking & Antonio critiquing her culinary skills.. LOL




What's spagetti without the Asian touch?? That's where I come in and test my culinary skills too!!!





Italian + Indian + Asian = *voila* Perfecto!!




After cooking, I found a cockroach in our cupboard so I put on my murderous gaze
and defeated it!!! Rawr....!!!





For dessert, my friend Ashu made Banana bread!! How amazingly good
does it look?? Jealous already? Hahaha..





What's better than banana bread?? It's banana bread with ice-cream!!
So yummy!!





Sneha & I in the kitchen..




After lunch, Sneha, Ashu & I went to 'Kawa' for some coffee just to enjoy the weather..





Really nice & chill place with a lot of trees & sunlight.. It's a Must visit spot!!






My Soy Cappuccino... soo good...




Sneha & Ashu's chai with milk or something.. It was really good too,
but kinda weird that they would serve it in a Chinese tea pot...





Sneha & I...


So yeah, that ends my fun afternoon & evening with good food & great company.


Til next time!!!

Up and Coming!

Hey y'all!!


Just wanted to let you all know how my week was and what's coming in the next few weeks.

1. Easter is coming so soon!! I'm super excited because Hillsong Church has a Video & Art Easter presentation which usually looks super professional. Definitely will blog about that!!

2. On the Monday after Easter I'm organizing a Photo Scavenger Hunt for the students @ College so I've just been super busy with that alone.

So just wanted to give you all a tasting plate of the good things to come. Be on the lookout!!



MUCH LOVE~!!!!

Thinking out Loud..

Just thinking out loud here guys...

Okay, I think it's my time of the month and I'm freaking PMS-ing because for the past few days I've been feeling super depressed then after that HYPER happy, and later rollercoaster dive to sadness once again.. On top of that I get easily irritated!! I felt super guilty because I was rude to so many people!!

So weird to feel like this.. Was at Church today and all the more on Choir.. So with my depressed face I tried to look happy and presentable to be on stage. I have to say it was so hard to pull my face up into a smile!! Worship did help my mood a lot and things started getting better for the day.

Night comes and after Church I just got irritated about something small again and there goes my good mood! Dang these hormones.. Makes me feel so unstable..

Right now my thoughts are "I wanna go home now!!!" Just the usual homesickness x200!! Had some ice cream just now, but totally didn't help me out at all..

Omg, now I'm debating whether do I want to finish College in July and go home or continue on for a 3rd year.. I need comfort food so badly now!!! Give me some wanton mee from Cheras..

Anyways, now I need to shower and go to bed. Working from 11:30am - 11pm tomorrow.. Yeap, it's almost 12 hours.. Thanks for sticking around people!


MUCH LOVE!!!!!!

Chaotic Kitchen!!

So the reason of why I'm posting this is because for the past 3 days, my kitchen has been looking like this... so I just needed to vent a little.. Haha!!

There's a picture for you..


Stuff just like scattered everywhere.. On the counter and in the sink...


Okay.. So that's how the kitchen has been for the past 3 days.. Nothing cleaned but just more stuff added! I don't really know why I'm sharing my dirty kitchen with you all, but try to enjoy the pictures ok? Hahaha!!



Garbage is just stacked in a corner.... Hmmm been there for maybe 3 days??!!




Juice spill on the table been discovered this morning...




Pile of dirty dishes dug up from the sink... Hahaha...




Clean dishes & utensils not being kept away...

Hahaha.. are we enjoying this post so far??? There's more....




The recycled items stacked sky-high.. It's partially my fault, I'm too lazy to take it out!!




Stove partially covered in food & pots still containing overnight food.. Yummy!!
*Disclaimer, those pots aren't mine..*



*BUT HERE COMES....... Julie!!!!!*

My beautiful roommate Julie from Canada!
She decided to clean everything up and save us from cockroaches that would come to visit our kitchen very soon!


*Cinderella cleaning, scrubbing, drying & sweeping away....*

(Some time passes....)




Taaddaaaa!!!! Clean kitchen & counters.. Amazing!! What would my life be without Julie...
Just for fun, maybe you want to compare how my kitchen looks in this picture to how it looked before..




Yay, for a clean stove!!! No more oil, grease or food stains!! *crazy laughter*




So.. that was a little glimpse into my not-so-glamorous life in Sydney. So the moral of the story is, do your dishes because worst case scenario, your kitchen will look like mine!! I'm sure you don't want that. Pity those Mom's that clean up after dinner everyday!! Maybe tonight just give her a hand with the dishes, because 2 people cleaning is way more fun than 1 person cleaning alone.. Hahaha!!


That's all I've got this time, thanks for reading. Much love!!

Dinner at Sepia

My uncle and I went out for dinner when he was in Sydney. He took me to this place called "Sepia". It was classy and all so we had to dress up and all. It was fun, but with the size of the dishes, sometimes it's a little hard to get full la.

Like sometimes for me, if I don't have any form of rice I don't feel satisfied. Haha! But this was a really nice dinner and I fully enjoyed it anyway!


Checking out the menu & ordering. Everything sounded so yum!




Unagi on some sushi rice. Haha I forgot the fancy name for this dish.




Some kind of essence. Very tasty!




Jewfish, squid, carviar & some sauce thingie. This was one of the nicest!




Mushroom essence meant to be poured into the next dish.




Lamb with the mushroom essence. Medium-done, just the way I love it!!



Hmm.... what was this called again.. Haha nevermind.. It looks good though!




For dessert, we had this sorbet with a flower petal on it. So cute....



Our last dessert was this melted marshmellow goodness with cheeries & chocolate flakes. So sinfully good.... haha making me hungry just thinking about it..


Hahaha so anyway thanks to my uncle, this dinner was free of charge for me.. So nice..

So this is my little adventure and break outside of college. I 100% enjoyed it!!


'Til next time...
