porridge

kind of like "new broom sweeps clean"
so semangat to blog now =p
last sunday, went to find the GOMBAK hospital cos i had to go there for rotation on monday. another story all together...
then after that, went kaikai at berjaya times square, then for dinner (at 6pm??)
at some porridge store by the road side!!!!
its in KL, near HSBC bank and somewhere along the meeting point of klang river and gombak river, if I'm not mistaken. that's how KUALA LUMPUR got its name rite?
like i said, its along a row of shops, and many metro buses just stop along there, not very hygienic actually but things we go through to get good food.
and mind you, i don't fancy porridge. but i love the one here ^^ despite the noisy traffic and well, smelly fumes. its actually not that bad..
apparently that shop was already around way before my mum got married. that is like more than 20 years back. and my mum used to eat there also..
and i found out the reason why i enjoy shopping and going out so much. its actually a tradition my mum said when she was younger, her parents (my grandparents) will take the whole family out during weekends/friday night to walk around KL, and sometimes SUNGAI WANG (the only shopping mall around those days)
so i guess i was brought up. to love shopping! cos i remember going for outings on friday nights ever since..well...a long time. (except if there is a test coming up or any other circumstances, lah)


porridge..kinda cute, the way they serve it.for the fish porridge, there is this hot steaming bowl of porridge, and a plate of raw extremely thinly sliced fish with ginger and parsley. you have to pour the fish and all in to the porridge to let it cook. i was quite amused the first time i had it =P
the porridge is quite watery but its an excellent consistency and the it tastes good also. the chicken drumstick is good also. cooked to perfection. three of us will eat four bowls.but its not very filling. and halfway through, I'll start sweating alot. don't fancy that part though....



the stall by the road side.... i noticed five big tongs of porridge, and it will usually be sold out by 7pm plus..that's how good it is =)

nothing better to do...

knick knacks

my version of brownie with ice-cream. fairly simple to make.

something to tempt everybody.... its from SECRET RECIPE. had this with my special somone. cos james was bored with my usual chocolate indulgence, so i asked him to order and surprise me. it was a very nice surprise.. i put this photo up on my msn messenger and got a lot of attention!!!hahah

some cute photos of a highly amusing book-a dictionary of silly words about growing up-

ZEBRA--so reminds me of beeling =) the pink zebra

JEALOUS- feeling envious of people because they have something you don't have, like a big house or a lot of money ( and in this case a chocolate chip cookie) and you wish you were them except you wouldn't want all their freckles and those goofy ears..

dark chocolate. toblerone. mmmmmm...first it was cadbury chocolate during haemato. now its toblerone for GI. i can never get enough of chocolates. number one stress reliever (besides shopping..and sleeping)

my new dress. a bit too short to wear on its own. so i got thights. hmm..cannot imagine that i was thinking that this thight fashion statement was not very nice. oh well. but im so not a fashion victim...

and retail therapy does wonders for me too.

my polka dot shoes!! suddenly that song-new shoes-always hear on mix.fm rings in my ear.

hey, i put some new shoes on ..and suddendly everything is fine..i put some new shoes on and suddenly eveything is so right..

its already 2 AM!!! time to catch up on my beauty sleep.zzzzz

backtracking..after GI exams

nasi bojari (sorry-blur picture)

assam laksa at madam kwans

after GI exams, went on a movie marathon with james. spiderman 3 and pirates 3. two movies back to back. second time doing a movie marathon. first time with my high school friends..pride and prejudice and pirates 2, if my memory doen't fail me..

both movies were ok. and eventhough james didn't watch pirates 2 he got the storyline faster than me. and i watch both 1 and 2!!! yep, i can be so slow in catching strorylines in movie.

and i have also no sense of direction...

only in shopping malls =)

went for lunch at MADAM KWANS.

had assam laska and nasi bojari. and my must have deesert- sago with gula melaka. yummy

and had dinner in KIM GARY. had my cheese bakes rice. haven't had that in a long time.

i was behaving so childish throughout the day and giving james a hard time =) muahahha. he had to tolerate my "cricket sounds" too.

went grocery shopping..and left midvalley around 11 pm!!!

nice nice fantastic time =)

and very much well deserved....

35 days to EOS

I'm having shortness of breath.

EOS is 35 days. and the clock is ticking

FOUNDATION 2

CVS

RESPIRATORY

HAEMATOLOGY

GSATROINTESTINAL TRACT

five big files of note to digest..and not forgetting OSCE, which i failed my mock exam. sigh. gotta get my act together for the real exam. if not will be throwing away marks....

suddenly wished i had doremon's fanciful stuff. like the "roti tekap" where you put the bread on the notes.. and eat it. and you can remember!!! but what if it comes out as shit. but it will actually get digested first rite? so technically you will be able to remember. or better still, the "pintu cahaya masa" go to the future and read the exam papers!! too bad this things only happen in comic books...

my second blog.
after planning to get a new one for ages.
finally did so. and what wonderful timing. just 5 WEEKS away from my final EOS exam. well, its one way to relive tension. eventhough it might be temporary. writing always helps me cope with stress. and my overwhelming feelings.
welcome to my new blog!! =)
this is my previous blog. written quite a number of posts there..
