Le Magic Wand

2012-01-28T04:18:00.000-08:00

Went to Harry Potter's exhibition today and decided to buy Prof Snape's wand just because it looks so sleek and *~mysterious~*.

Anyway, I went home and did some crazy random stuff with it!

Le open the interwebz

Le alohomora the door when I forgot my key

Le hang my towel

Le use it as a chopstick to eat jellybeans

Le accio Girls' Generation

Le avada kedavra this Pikachu

Le poke my chubby cheek

Lastly, is to le act like a professional drummer with a wand

Dunn dunn dunn! *insert Harry Potter theme song/tune here*

“People don’t like change.”

“No, we don’t.”

“We don’t like anything new, when we love the old.”

“And what do you think about that?”

“I’m afraid I might not make any sense.”

“That doesn’t matter with me.”

“I think if we stick to the middle... the road we know... we don’t grow. When we’re too afraid to step a little to the left or to the right, we’re not able to see and expand. We’re just stuck – I’m not making sense –“

“Go on.”

“I liked walking on one road. I didn’t want to walk onto a new one, because I couldn’t bear leaving behind the one I loved. But when I did take a new one... I was able to look at the old road differently, and see things that were once invisible. I was able to see that it was meant only for me, but that it was also ending.”

First Day Of Foundation Program

2012-01-23T02:14:00.000-08:00

...was hella awkward.

My first class was IIP, International-something-perspective-thing and the teacher told us to go around and ask our classmates about their names and nationalities.

My classmates and I were like a group of socially awkward penguins.

I feel like I was Jessica, being surrounded by a bunch of Kim Taeyeon(s).

Oh well.

A Brief Look of Sydney

Not sure how to start this but hey, I am now living my University life here in Sydney, Australia!

First question first, my O's results was actually isn't that bad. I failed Maths (okay, it is bad) but I did well on the rest of the subjects. Two distinctions, two Bs and two Cs. Ain't that bad right? Unfortunately my results will not grant me any entry to Singapore's top notch junior colleges or polytechnics therefore, I made my choice to move to the land of kangaroos, koalas and wombats.

How's life here? So-so.

I live in a dorm-like apartment, in which I need to cook my own food, wash my dishes, do all the laundry and clean my bedroom and all. It's a bit unappealing at first but as time goes by I realised that I /HAVE/ to cook if I want to save money. I am now living in a place where nasi goreng costs me around $10 a plate. A very quick way to burn my wallet, I know.

Fortunately, I live very near from my campus. 10-15 minutes walk if I'm not too lazy or 20 minutes walk if I decided to be a Jessica Jung. I can even take the bus if I want to. There's a bus stop right in front of my dorm but the buses here are damn expensive as well. They have this card; My Bus 1, My Bus 2, and My Bus 3 and they're all different in terms of usage. My Bus 1 is for short distance ride, My Bus 2 is for not so short but no so far either distance ride and My Bus 3 is of course, for a very long distance ride. What's the most annoying part of these cards? The prices.

My Bus 1 Travel Ten card will cost you around AUSD $17 each and that's like freaking SGD $25 for a 10 short distance ride with a bus! I used to take the bus when I still live in Singapore last year although I can walk to school for 15-20 minutes but hey, the government was nice enough to give me a concession card. Here in Sydney, I can't chiong all the way to school with a bus since it's really expensive and I can save that money to buy food to prevent myself from starving to death. In conclusion, life gets a bit complicated here.

My cooking skill has improved tremendously and I'm proud of it. I'm starting to cook my own lunch and dinner and luckily my flatmate is nice (and patient) enough to teach me how to cook simple things. By next week I'm pretty sure she'll teach me more complicated and odd dishes.

So anyway that's it. I'll post some pictures for my next post that will probably be up in an hour or so. I have a very limited internet connection here (18GB/month) so yeah I won't be around that much.

Sad life, no more HD video files for me :(

Can I Tell You A Secret?

2011-11-20T23:03:00.000-08:00

“Why are you up?”

“I was reading.”

“What were you reading?”

“A page in the Bible.”

“Why?”

“It was the page I found your note in.”

“You remembered the page?”

“I saw a verse in it that I liked. I think I'll have it as my book's title.”

It was the First Epistle to the Corinthians.

Chapter Thirteen.

Verse Thirteen.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.

But the greatest of these is love.

V.I.U.

2011-07-01T10:35:00.000-07:00

Updates!

I had my Mother Tongue O's Oral Exam yesterday.

And it was a mess.

Well no, not really. I managed to read the passage without any problems but the conversation was slightly... absurd. I stumbled most of my words and I just blurted out everything. They asked me questions about healthy foods (which was rather easy but I thought they're going to ask something more ~serious~ so this question caught me off guard), dieting, etc. It's such a shame that I forgot to talk about Yuri's recent diet. I mean, if I talked about it, it'll be a great example that I can use for the question. But meh my mind went blank so in the end I just said anything that came into my mind sobs.

Another update is umm... I'm wearing a spectacles now.

Sadly most of my schoolmates thought that I'm using it for ~style~ instead of because of my degree. I need to tell them that I can't see properly and this specs I'm using is not a fashion item. Wina told me I'll look like a geek with specs on but yeah she IS true. I look like a dork!

Last but not least, the most exciting update will be....

ALL ABOUT FREAKING FLAWLESS GIRLS' GENERATION IS OUT!!!!!!

I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN WILL MY COPY OF THIS GLORIOUS DVD WILL REACH MY DOORSTEP BUT OMG!!!!! IT'S FINALLY OUT!!!!!

720 minutes footage + reality shows + mvs + etc of them, cramped in 6 dvds. And also another 40pgs photobook consisting of breathtaking photos of them. Man, this video will be my perfect getaway from school. I can just go to sleep, wake up in the morning, watch the whole 11 hours DVD, and go back to sleep again. Simple. How I wish I can have that kind of lifestyle everyday lol.

Anyway, I'm meeting oppars tomorrow. B2ST is throwing their very first fanmeeting event in Singapore and I'm very glad that I'll be there to attend it.

Marketing strategy your ass?

2011-06-07T00:27:00.000-07:00

Apparently one psycho guy sent couple of coffins to media agencies yesterday and that includes to someone I know really well in my life.

I was startled, surprised, SHOCKED, when I received the picture of this coffin. It was still in the box, half opened so that I can see a glimpse of it. It was brown, big, and complete with the "Rest In Peace" words carved on the wood.

What the fuck.

First thing first, I came out with an idea that the sender is beyond crazy and stupid. WHO THE HELL IN THE WORLD SENT COFFINS TO SOMEONE WHEN THIS PERSON IS STILL ALIVE AND HEALTHY?

Well after minutes of panicking like a mother who lost her child in the department store (what is this metaphor), I got the news that this 'coffin terror' was just a 'creative' way to promote this mental person's new book. Yes, his book, which I didn't even care to look for the title because the promotion itself scared the hell out of me. Wait, I did take note that the book... is about something marketing, media, whatever, being killed by the new era, or whatsoever... Gosh. I'm just too lazy to search for the title but I remembered that it is about something being killed by something and there's a "RIP" written somewhere in the title as well.

Apparently the person chose to sent coffins as to attract the medias' attention due to its very 'creative' method. Sorry to say, but this method is just too grotesque. Sending coffins to people without any announcement will only make you look like you're terrorizing the medias. You can pull something less obnoxious than that. Isn't coffins' expensive as well? Sigh, the next time you want to launch a book about elephants, make sure you ship three elephants to me.

Talk about marketing strategies, I kind of... got tricked by Pringles yesterday.

The "Big Can" basically, is just the same with the normal can. There's nothing in between the yellow part of the can lol the chips start to accumulate from the green part all the way to the bottom part of the can. This is a bit irrelevant but I kind of find this to be interesting. Just like when I first found out that Mcdonalds' only gives us a bit of Pepsi yet loads of ice blocks in our cups.

I was like 6 years old when I discovered that.

“Then what do you think of when you hear the word ‘happiness’?”

“Your eye-smiles, laughter, and hugs, bring me all the happiness I could need.”

“What about ‘stealing’?”

“You’ve stolen my heart long ago, and I’m not intent on getting it back.”

“’Money’”

“No amount of money in the world could equate to how much you are to me.”

“’Thugs’”

“I’d beat the living crap of anyone who tries to mess with you.”

“’God’”

“I believe in him only for the sole reason that He brought you into this world.”

“’Death’”

“The day I die is when you leave me.”

“’Drugs’”

“Your love is my drug, and I don’t plan on quitting this addiction.”

“’Cucumbers’”

“…If you really wanted me to, I’d eat it for you.”

Love does strange things, you know?

Char Kuay and Chicken Rice

2011-05-08T07:44:00.000-07:00

Another random Saturday I had this week.

Just my normal routines. Woke up at 8, took a shower, ate my breakfast and then head for tuition. Class was okay, my teacher's back from the US so I kinda back to my 'old-self' in the class. Cracking up random jokes and I actually learned new things about sharks. Me and my tuition-mates watched Jaws and it was actually my first time watching it. It was so intense that I almost dug my own nails into my palms, especially the part when the main character was about to shot the shark. Well nonetheless the movie was damn sadistic. I couldn't stand watching a little boy being eatan up by a shark.

Later in the afternoon I asked the two Jakarta dudes to come to Chua Chu Kang. Yeah they actually travelled all the way from Somerset to where I live. We head to this hawker centre in Teck Whye to get some good halal and cheap Chinese cuisine.

Located right one stop away from Pioneer Junior College, you can enjoy couple of decent and halal Chinese foods for only $3 - $10. The place wasn't as big as what I expected. I'm not really the type of person to eat in Hawker Centres (this is actually the third time for me to eat hawker foods) so at first I though it'll be as big as the ones in Holland Village. There's like only 5 or 6 stalls there. Seafood stall, chicken rice, yong tau foo, rojak, etc.

My schoolmate recommended me to try their chicken rice. I asked for more soysauce and it was good. Well maybe not as good as the ones in those fine dining restaurant but this was good enough for me. Too bad the portion was a bit to small. I felt like ordering another plate but at the same time I'm scared I wont be able to finish it.

For 'dessert', I tried the "Char Kuay" from the Rojak stall. Its like 'cakwe' but they put 'bumbu kacang' on top. The unique part is that they actually fried the 'cakwe' again before they pour the sauce on top. It tasted funny... Something like 'pecel' or 'gado-gado' but the 'cakwe' version of it. I can't find the perfect words to explain it but this is definitely a must for tourists who are interested in absurd foods.

Although all of the food that we tried was probably only around the 'okay' range, it still satisfied my stomach (and my wallet too).

No Worries

2011-05-06T10:24:00.000-07:00

I went out to town to watch Lion King The Musical (or just simply, The Lion King) today.

I watched it once when I was in London last December, so technically I watched the same thing just now. But, they kind of changed some of the scenarios.

I didn't remember the actors said "Ni hao" or "Xie xie" when I was in London. The actors who I presumed were British actually said some of the common Singlish words during their performance.

And there was this scene when Timon tried to convince Simba to 'hakuna matata' and suddenly he said,
"Ya, hakuna matata, no worry lah."

It cracked me up.

Wait, it cracked the WHOLE theater up.

Anyway....

One of my bestie from Jakarta, aka Archie is currently in Singapore. The last time he went to Singapore was like 6 years ago and he told me that he's "buta singapur". We went around HMV and I found some awesome goodies in HMV. Too bad they overpriced the price again.

For those VIPs who's currently living in Singapore, 313's Uniqlo restocked their Big Bang x Uniqlo collection. They discounted the price as well. I remembered I bought one for $25 last January and now they sell them for only $19.90. I tried to find Taeyang, Seungri and G-Dragon's XS size shirt but the staff told me all of them are sold out :(

I'm looking forward for an awesome, long weekend.

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME LISTENING TO CRAPPY ASIAN SONGS

2011-05-06T01:18:00.000-07:00

and listen to this instead:

I swear I am not being a biased bitch right now.

I abhor exams because

2011-05-06T01:04:00.000-07:00

it pretty much ruined my room and my weight

Currently addicted to this

Some random shit I did just to memorise the reactivity of metals

3 papers left for next week.
Gonna spend the rest of my weekend relaxing and cramping a whole bunch of Biology stuff in my brain.

Anyway some random Jae photo I found today

waylt

Off I go to Marina Bay Sands,
gonna watch Lion King (as in the musical, theater, whatever one) tonight.

Maybe you're falling upwards, then.

2011-05-04T01:17:00.000-07:00

I'm not really the type of person who spent countless of hours reading story books. I'm not a lazyass. More to, I-dont-really-have-the-time-because-of-this-thing-called-as-school. But sometimes I find myself wandering around Livejournal or Soshified to find something decent to read, and I stumbled upon this, perfect description of being in love in a fanfic.

Yes, in a fanfic.

A freaking Yuri fanfic.

"You've been in love before, right?" she asks me candidly. Of course, I tell her. "Then you know what it's like when you first meet them. You're a mess because your brain and your mouth refuse to cooperate and the person you thought you were is nothing like the person they're changing you into. No one makes you feel as weak and vulnerable as they do and you once thought it'd be the worst possible feeling in the world but instead, it turns out to be the best."

I watch her speak and become struck with an odd feeling of jealousy. Her description is nothing like anything I have ever experienced and I find myself doubting if I truly have ever loved.

"But that's supposed to pass," she continues. "You're supposed to get over it after a while and get back to normal. I haven't though. I'm still falling for her and I don't know when I'll stop."

"Maybe you're falling upwards, then," I suggest jokingly.

But she doesn't find it as humorous and nods her head understandingly.

"Maybe."

This is, perfection. Its simple. Not exquisite, yet explains all the feelings and emotions we had when we're in love.

"You're a mess because your brain and your mouth refuse to cooperate and the person you thought you were is nothing like the person they're changing you into. No one makes you feel as weak and vulnerable as they do and you once thought it'd be the worst possible feeling in the world but instead, it turns out to be the best."

That whole chunk of paragraph is like magic. I meant, it explains how love affect us both emotionally and physically. You know, that moment when you tried to talk to your crush, and suddenly the stiff air in between you fell heavily upon your mouth, making it difficult for you to speak up? Or when your body stiffened when you see your crush and their tiniest actions and their most precise of words? And you thought that it'd be the worst possible feeling in the world but instead it turns out to be the best?

That's just an epic sentence and I have no idea how to top that.

This is, the beauty of fanfic. Y'all.

This is YoonYul btw, from the fic: The Upward Fall.

Album Unboxing: B1A4's "Lets Fly"

2011-05-02T07:39:00.000-07:00

I tried to restrain myself from getting a copy of this but in the end I'm getting it for real.

Got this from HMV (effing overpriced, thank god my parents were there) and I need to admit I really like the songs inside and the packaging of the album itself is really good. I'm not really fond of rookie groups (except for Infinite) and this group, B1A4 came out with their title song "O.K". I'm not a fan of over-autotuned songs so I think the songs inside their first mini album are quite okay.

Scans can be found here.

Btw I personally picked Jinyoung as my favorite member. Maybe because of his voice instead of his looks.

Eksplorasi Singapura: Ann Siang Road & Club Street (Part 2)

2011-04-15T06:55:00.000-07:00

Although we didn't manage to try the cakes in Kki, we managed to try the cakes from Le Chocolat Cafe. It located right next to The Club so I though the price of the cake will be damn expensive. Turns out it was around $5 - $8 each. Quite an okay-price for a decent cake.

We ended up going to 313 Somerset too and spent more than 2 hours in Honeymoon Dessert. Fun fact, I've been spending my weekends in this dessert restaurant. Their Mango Sago is like the bomb, but for last week I ordered Watermelon Grassjelly instead (I forgot the exact name but basically its just a watermelon, and a grassjelly). I tried their Durian Pancake and it was really good.

Eksplorasi Singapura: Ann Siang Road & Club Street

2011-04-15T06:44:00.000-07:00

Sigh finally I have the time to post the photos I took last week. Me, Ican, and Manda (yeah the three of us again) went for another 'expedition' around Singapore, and this time we actually made it to Ann Siang Road and Club Street!

Me and Ican took the train from Dhoby Ghaut to Chinatown and I found some random yet amusing stores and stuffs when we are on our way to Ann Siang.

The journey to Club Street was rather short. We just need to cross the road from Chinatown and yeah that's it. I don't really know the place here so Manda and Ican were the one to guide our journey. Firstly we went to this cafe+store, Kki.

We didn't get the chance to try the cakes there but I managed to take some pics of the store. They have this huge collection of polaroid cameras. Not to mention the accessories/books/random stuff there are awesome too.

Lastly we went to this vintage store (I forgot to take note of the name, sorry!) somewhere around Club Street and Ann Siang Rd.

Wait what? No foods?

Wait. Since there are too many photos in this post, I decided to separate our "food journey" and my "normal journey". My next post (which will be up in 15 mins) will be about the foods we ate during our expedition around Ann Siang Road.

I guess this blog will forever be a foodblog lulz.

SHAKING AND CRYING: LOOK WHAT I'VE GOT FROM THE MAILBOX TODAY

2011-04-15T06:07:00.000-07:00

I received my Japanese Deluxe Limited Edition version of Gee! Soshigoods gave me a free Nintendo DSi brochure as well lol you guys are awesome! They had this 'clearance sale' a month ago so I decided to get this for $25 (includes shipping) each.

Can't believe that today turns out to be a reaalllyyy fine day for me.

Just because I love them so much.

2011-04-12T04:36:00.000-07:00

I know there's a lot of part that got autotuned. I hate this too. But forget it, this is their first (or second) time using it and I need to admit this song is damn effing catchy. Period.

We we we so excited for April 27th.

Lunch and Handburger

2011-04-09T08:19:00.000-07:00

School ended so early last Friday so me and Ansley decided to go to LotOne to eat some lunch together. We wanted to eat Sakae Sushi but then the buffet time starts at 3 so we ended up to eat in Pizza Hut Instead.

Chicken pasta something....

Beef lasagna

The price was okay since it was on weekdays and they have this student offer thingy so in the end we only need to pay for $8 for each meal. The food was normal. My favorite food from Pizza Hut will be their Carbonara Pasta but the student offer did not include that meal and I prefer to have Lasagna instead of Spaghetti Carbonara. The lasagna was not that good either. If I need to pay for more than $10, this meal is no not worth it.

I had a dinner date with Ican and Manda at 313 Somerset's Handburger. Local restaurant, and I need to admit the concept of the restaurant is a bit unique. Basically you can't really eat the burger with your hands. They'll give you a fork and a knife and you need to gently cut the burger to pieces before you munch it in your mouth. Though the process might be confusing, especially if you spend your life eating McDonalds or Burger King, it was not as frustrating as what I thought. You need to cut it. Its impossible if you think you can shove the whole burger to your mouth. Moreover the interior there are kinda cute too. I love the plates.

Interesting menu

Just a normal lemon tea

Fries fries fries

Handburger's Original

Duck Confit Burger

Chicken Caesar Burger

The burgers were decent. Not as crappy as McDonalds or Burger King but at the same time it wasn't THAT good too. I didn't give the milkshake a try but I think their milkshakes are kinda fine. Its worth the try though to eat in this restaurant. It gives you a whole different meaning for burgers.

Last but not least... Here's a picture Yanis (Foals' member). Manda created this.

Fansites, why are you like that.

2011-04-01T00:49:00.000-07:00

I woke up this morning (gotta get my bowl of cereal) and looked around the internet and I found bunch of fansites are pulling a prank on me. Well since I'm new in this fandom, apparently they've been doing this kind of thing annually since last last last years ago. So I took a look on some of the sites (well mostly are SNSD's fansites) and they're all... amajjing.

I'm gonna list down the sites that I think are quite interesting (because some are just plain boring and not funny at all to be honest) and yeah here we go:

mrminho.com

Took me a while to realize that Minho's there

woorissica.com


One of my favorite, Sica in a watermelon! but anyway LOL

2pmalways.com


well.....

deeryoona.com


deeryoona, also known as saseumi dot com (saseum means deer), is now sashimi dot com

kimhyoyeon.net

HYOTTE WORLD

and last but not least... my favorite from all of them, hyomorous.com!

I recommend you all to click the website, laugh-worthy and the best amongst all of the fansites I've seen

Furthermore, some international fansites also took part in this "event", Soshified pulled us this "Bieber" prank and I need to admit the layout looks fabulous even though Bieber's there....

What's so funny is that DJ Isak (@RealISAK) got fooled by this. She even tweeted that

she almost called Fany when she thought this "Mr Taxi feat. Justin Bieber" thingy is true.

Happy April Fools Day errryonee!

just so you know, I haven't fell for any pranks until now. Thank god?

SHAKING AND CRYING: MY KYHD REPACKAGED CD IS HERE

2011-03-28T03:26:00.000-07:00

Thank goodness I decided to buy this DBSK's Keep Your Head Down Repackaged album from a blog shop. HMV overpriced it till $52. That's a total rip off man. But anyway this CD totally worth the money I spent. The size isn't as what I expected and its not as big as the unrepackaged version. So anyway this is me unboxing/unpackaging the cd!

That's the frame, you pick the photo you want and put it there

...That's a lot

My fave photos of Changmin, Yunho, and also the two of them

Decided to choose this photo as the cover

Taadaa

Purposely bought the tube so that I can put my other posters there

The poster took 1/4 of my bed

Changmin's ~luscious~ lips

Changmin's photocard

I got Changmin's photocard (yay!) again. Not to mention I also got his photocard from my unrepackaged Korean Keep Your Head Down album and my Japanese Keep Your Head Down album.
This is what I called as FATE.

sorry for the dalmatians blanket anyway, i couldn't find a better place for the background. oh well.

Dessert Date

2011-03-27T05:28:00.000-07:00

I had a dessert date today with Manda and Ican. At first we planned to go to Bakerzin but in the end we decided to spent our afternoon in Swensens, Ion Orchard instead. Its actually my first to eat the desserts there. The last time I visited this restaurant, I remembered I didn't order any of the ice creams or cakes so I guess I shall give myself a try today.

Free mineral water...

Cookies and cream and chocolate cake

Chocolate ice cream with chocolate fudge and... many more

Look at the chocolate sauce all around the cherry

This is what I ordered, brownies with chocolate ice cream

I took some random photos of Ican and Manda too.

That's Ican on the left and Manda on the right

Next stop, we went to Bonchon, chicken wing restaurant (not really a restaurant...) right next to Ion Orchard's Food Opera. They sell one of the greatest chicken wings in Singapore and I heard that they're going to open a new branch soon in Jakarta, Indonesia. Well friends, you HAFTA try the chicken wings there. Its... awesome. I took some pics of the mini-restaurant too.

Yeah, the chicken wings is THAT good.

Arts Ignite

Last year I attended my school's mini concert, "Arts Ignite" in Singapore Polytechnic. It was simply a showcase of our Chinese Orchestra, Band, Dance, Choir, and also Drama Club.

I thought I lost all of Arts Ignite photos I took last November, but thank God my teacher had the backup file of it. My friend decided to upload the whole thing to Facebook and I took some of the good shots and decided to retouch it.

I never really shared this pictures since it was missing for almost 5 months so here we go!

Choir

Chinese Orchestra

Epic dance move

Drama club

Band

Taadaa! Arts Ignite 2010 was a success!

My friend, Siska, invited me to her birthday dinner today. I already posted the foods we ate and now its time for me to actually post the photos about what we did in Orchard today.

We took couple of group photos in Marche and went to Cineleisure to check the movies schedule but it turns out all of the movie available at the moment are not that worth to watch.

Group photo!

I'm that kid in the blue shirt

Thasya bought this unique candies in Cineleisure

The pricing tag of the candy. LOL what even

My friends bought this

After that we head down to Takashimaya's Best Denki because I need to buy a new memory card reader (I spoiled mine). What so funny was that when we were in Best Denki, we actually played those free PSPs and Nintendo DS available on the store.

Siska, fully engrossed playing the Super Mario Bros game

I think Marsha's bored or something

Thasya and the birthday girl lol

So yeah that's pretty much what I did today. By the way, this year's Earth Hour is not that different with last year's. Those apartments in front of mine did not switch off their lights. They did not seem to care. Smh.

I'm a food extraordinaire.

Okay. First thing first. I love foods.

You know how most 16 year olds these days are so insecure about their weight, about what they eat, what they drink etc. Well, I don't really give a shit about all of that. I love foods and I enjoy eating them all the time. Well in fact I used most of my monthly allowance to devour those delish dish I found in nearby restaurants or even those that are far from where I live.

Well today, I got invited to my friend's birthday dinner in Marche. A Swiss restaurant located in 313 Somerset. I took a couple of photos of what I ordered and what my friend had ordered earlier today. I must say Marche is one of the my favorite restaurant in Singapore, their Spanish Paella is just... yummy.

Salad with smoked salmon and crispy bacon on top

Creamy mushroom soup with bread

Apple tea! One of my favorite drinks from Marche

Garlic bread and a... blackforest cake?

Roasted chicken

Another garlic bread, but this time they added tomatoes and cheese

This is what I ordered, crepes filled with minced beef, mushroom, cheese, and veggies

Chicken sausages with mash potato

I presume that this is tiramisu

Chocolate mousse with granola bars or whatever that is

Simply one of the best restaurant that offer varieties of foods from other countries. Not to mention they also have pizza, spanish paella (I mentioned this before, one of my favorite), steaks, pasta, rosti, and many more. It's a bit pricy but hey we should enjoy something like this at least once in a month. Oh and they put a jar filled with Sticky candies right outside the cashier for free!

I commit.

Hi.

Alright I've been switching blogs all the way from Posterous, Tumblr, Wordpress, and finally I stumbled upon Blogspot. Its not that I don't know that this site exist but most likely because this site, is kinda, dead. And what I meant with 'dead' would probably be about people who preferred Tumblr or Livejournal for blogging.

I found Tumblr interesting, but not decent enough for blogging. Especially when I decided to actually post stuff here. Livejournal? Well I do have an account in LJ. I posted rants, and mostly those "30 days memes" or those kind of stuffs but again, not for blogging.

So here I am right now, trying my best to /actually/ post good stuff about my everyday life stories. I hope you enjoy my blog and... visit this site frequently.

Sincerely,

Bening Putri Wardani.

P.S: Alright this first post sounded very dull. I promise I'll post something better next time.
