Nail biting 2008-07-25 20:01:00 You know that feeling when you haven't had enough sleep and you feel so tired you feel like spewing? I had that feeling while I was walking home after a meeting at uni the other day. It wouldn't have been the best idea after thinking about it now, but I thought I could get rid of that sick feeling by eating some Korean snackfood. So here is me with my barbecue corn flavoured snack. And yep, thats Read more:biting
Bitesize cakelets 2008-07-25 03:14:00 These are the Korean tiramisu cakelets I was obsessed about some time ago. I finished the whole box in a day. And as you can see, its not exactly false advertising. Cream oh cream!
Homeless comfort 2008-07-24 04:21:00 Have you ever had to overnight at the Auckland airport before? Here is a snapshot of what its like to be homeless and cold for a night. I should know. Read more:comfort
Chocolate fashion 2008-07-22 23:49:00 Dark chocolate M&Ms are out! But whats up with the new M&Ms colour scheme? I mean, beige? turquoise? Regardless, this is my M&M stash...in a Ferrero Rocher box. Read more:Chocolate
Spaghettios 2008-07-22 00:40:00 Here is my first go at beef mince spaghetti. But before I carry on, I would like to apologise to my mom (who will probably never know I apologised anyway) for my notion of eating beef. Don't ask. It's called religion.Really, it was an attempt to finish off the Home Brand buck wheat pasta my mom had bought when she was over here in NZ. She didn't pay as much for the pasta as my stomach did. No more
Swimming in thoughts 2008-07-20 20:38:00 I've been meaning to blog about this pool table for some time. My flatmate brought this into the flat about a month ago. Since then, I have spent countless minutes circling the table in times of stress and distraught. Read more:Swimming

Retaining 2008-07-20 00:19:00 Why is there a food bowl next to my toilet sink? Well, it only struck me a few days after that it may have been used to place my flatmates spanking new retainers.Yes, it is my bowl.Could someone please find this funny before depression hits me.
Possy in OZ 2008-07-19 00:06:00 I don't usually drink wine. That's his. Mine's the chai... chai latte, that is (I love how grand it sounds when you give it the James Bond 007 flair).Now, if I could only remember which wine I drank the day before that made me tremendously giggly. So giggly that I dim-wittedly scared a possum by screaming at the top of my lungs how much I really really wanted to hug it. The poor thing clung to the
My vintage tees! 2008-07-17 20:59:00 I finally had the guts to purchase this pair of vintage T-shirts from Palmercash. This is the first time I have ever bought anything from the States using my Visa so I'm giving myself a pat on the back ( you can give one too if you want) for a well-deserved occasion. Uh, what was the occasion again?
Another week 2008-07-16 21:24:00 ...which means a new Happy Meal toy!So here is Master Shifu from Kungfu Panda, instructions and all. I happen to have them in my bag while I was at uni today and was actually planning to give them to a 25 year old before feeling that toys should rightfully belong to children aged at least ten or under. Long story short, they now belong to my supervisor's grandchildren. And for the record, it wasn'
Watermelon 2008-07-16 01:13:00 Claire was to going to be a first-time mom and would live happily with her accountant husband, James, in London - or so she thought.James had left her for another woman on the day she gave birth to baby Kate. Dumbfounded and shocked by her husbands sudden departure, Claire took flight back to Ireland to seek support and familiarity from none other than her eccentric family. In Ireland, she meets A Read more:Watermelon
No title 2008-07-14 20:31:00 I know this is not a good excuse for me to leave my room in this state, but you have to admit that creating a mess is a genuine form of art. So here is my masterpiece for the week. Among my favourite objects on the desk is Bunny, the roll of toilet paper that has been good company since I came down with a cold on Monday, and my 'hot' and 'sweet' teacups.
Dearrings 2008-07-14 03:43:00 I don't think the dbf knows that I've casually nicked these earrings back after accidentally leaving them with him some time ago. They are precious because he got talked into getting a discount card at a female jewelery store while I was picking this pair out. Don't get me wrong, the card was under my name - but maybe not the bill.
Kill me all over again 2008-07-11 09:04:00 This is proof that I can cook fish curry. Yes dear dbf. FISH CURRY. A few tomatoes, and okra (for those who don't now what okra is, it's the little stem in the curry that is sticking out like a Pinocchio's nose), some red onion rings and voila!I had trouble frying the silverbeet though. First I had too much oil, then I forgot to put the garlic in first and it was oh so tragic. At the end of it, ot
Broceggs. 2008-07-11 08:57:00 Here's another recipe for meiyi! Microwaved broccoli in mayonnaise with hard boiled eggs and melted cheese. Yummmmmmm...Imma call it my broceggs salad. If any of yous think it was yuck, I give you my solemn promise that I ate it all up and swear to God it was as yum as it looks.
Out of focus 2008-07-10 08:52:00 Here's an obscenely orange photo of a wooden penguin which was a gift from one good friend to another. The camera's focus was on the penguin, but mine was actually on the M&Ms...
My unhealthy, young heart 2008-07-09 08:46:00 I haven't had a McDonald's Happy Meal for ages! It started with a craving for double cheeseburger. Then while my flatmate and I were at drive through, he went 'Oh! Kung-Fu Panda toys!'. He was so amused by my want for a Happy Meal he accidentally ordered himself an extra medium fries.

Bear me 2008-07-08 08:27:00 Here is my favourite cereal bowl, which then eventually became the only bowl I ever eat from. Today, it contains Shin Ra Myun - I only eat Korean spicy instant noodles. You can tell its so hot and spicy it steamed up the windows. No. Actually, I lied. The steam was all me.
NZpost prints Narnia 2008-07-05 02:48:00 My close cousin and I used to collect stamps during our childhood years. I was sending off some birthday cards at the post office the other day and spotted this set of Narnia
mint stamps. So off they went to meet my cousin in the United Kingdom. Read more:prints
Eighties 2008-07-04 20:24:00 I'm listening to all my favourite 80s and 90s again, songs that I grew up listening to. Mariah Carey, Boy II Men, Tim McGraw, Janet Jackson, Babyface etc.What's your favourite?
Hanging on to our vermicellis 2008-07-04 05:54:00 The host team may have been having the strategy of poisoning other teams during the opening ceremony of BERSATU. Or else, they may have thought malnutrition would be close enough. And just in case the food didn't deter the athletes from performing their best, they made sure to dehydrate them by depriving them from the most essential thing in life - water. Amen that we survived.PS: The food was act Read more:Hanging
Not the cuppa 2008-07-03 19:59:00 He is only perfect because I love his flaws.
Slush 2008-07-03 02:51:00 The car ride down to Wellington was utter joy. This photo was taken at Desert Road with the window down. Three seconds after, the ice breaker-bulldozer monster machine came whizzing down the opposite side of the road and threw a tyreful of road-ice against my (luckily wound-up) window. Phew!
Avanoo dot com 2008-07-01 07:00:00 Recently, I received an email from a Mr. Rajesh Broschat of The Avanoo Team to create awareness and funding for humanitarian causes by placing a banner on my blog (very much like Free Rice). I accepted the offer thinking that it could do no harm. So help yourself to finding my bright (but rather pixelated) banner on my left sidebar.I had even replied asking if they were working on making more desi
Streep tees 2008-06-30 07:00:00 More pictures from my session at the Computer Science lab. I was trying to depict my friend who was sitting beside me. I had no intention of seeing him undress. I just thought that he could have passed as a tree for which I didn't have enough space to draw.
Brave boys 2008-08-09 04:25:00 If you've ever thought things made in Asia are a bit out of whack...I solemnly agree. These brave little boys were found in an Asian supermarket in Hamilton opposite the food aisle. Please don't flag me for obscenity... Read more:Brave
Bright Chocolates! 2008-08-08 04:20:00 My friend and I were about to go watch a movie when I got attracted to the bright array of yummies. I almost stumbled over in awe. I couldn't tell if it was the colours or the amount of chocolates found at one spot. Okay, maybe a little of both. Who knew the movie counter-bar could look so edible? Read more:Bright

Don't drink 2008-08-07 04:18:00 If you can't see it already, the words on the van says "Don't drink science, you don't know where its been"Being a scientist, it was instant camera-phone material.
Four Kings 2008-08-06 04:06:00 While I was in Wellington over the summer, I managed to have a fancy dinner at the (then) new Four Kings sports bar. These signs were found on the toilet doors. Its really all about how the drinks flow after a good night at the bar.PS: Taken with my camera phone. More of that to come!
Ronald 2008-08-05 04:01:00 Have you ever seen such a vast McDonald's store before? This one had beautiful plaster ceiling as well. The shot was taken when my friend and I decided to go have breakfast at Auckland's McDonald's on Queen Street.So, not too shabby eh? Read more:Ronald
