for the first time on friday i drank so much alcohol in one go.

i dont drink alcohol..but omg i am now sooo addicted to baileys.

i want more.

i love rum and raisin icecream. yumyumyummy

on thursdays i travel home with my boss. we were talking about food and she knows i like baking so she asked me ..trinh whats your signature dish?..i couldnt think of anything. then she asked me. ..ok if i asked you to come to my dinner and bring a dish what would you bring..and again i was speechless..she was a bit..okk?..lolll
made me sad. i mean after all these years of cooking and baking..i dont even have a dish that id like to cook to bring to someones dinner let alone..a signature dish. sigh. lol. i couldnt even say my fav dish i made by myself is chilli crab and id bring that to her dinner because shes vegetarian! lol.

so now im on my search to bake, and find that 'signature' dish. ...but im stuck. dont know where to start. dont know what i want to cook.. help.

what else should i do during this winter break. work out? finish knitting my scarf? finish my art project? ..mmm. i need inspiration.
i hope everyone enjoy their break! rest heaps. have fun. and i miss you all =)

easter+anzac

today is sonny's birthday. happy birthday darling. this morning on my quest to clean up his golden nuggets ...
i saw a flock of pigeons doing their regular flying routine so i stopped and watched. all u can hear is the morning silence and the flapping of their wings.. sonny obviously joined me. . soo..zen? i wish i could retire already. LOL.
although i do not miss keeping pigeons as pets..at all. loll

sonny has always loved flying objects. helicopters, aeroplanes and birds. lol he would sit upright and alone in the backyard watching the sky waiting for something..

i took sonny for a walk so far and now back to gardening.

the other day i was sitting under the sun picking off all the strawberry guava fruits from the huge broken branch on the grass. that took me forever. i chucked out most of them what a waste. but noone eats them. lol after picking all the fruits i had to break all the branches sonny hellped me. lol. ive never seen a dog have so much fun playing with branches with twigs and all. my persimmon tree is ..dying. i picked off all its leaves. no fruits this year.
dad dug a huge hole. a metre deep by maybe 3m. were planning to bury everything..that is green waste..

its a nice day today. hope everyone is out getting some sun.
ta.

BEAUTIFUL SURPRISES

on wednesday 13th.4:

was falling asleep studying so smsd jen and luckily she was free! met up with her and went to get the paper at union house. a new bakery opened downstairs in the basement we decided to check it out. to me it was quite cheap but everything tasted the same..very light soft and asianee. lol. it was nice. i bought a mexican bun?? which is supposedly a coffee bun with cream butter filling. there was zero filling. the overall bun was..i wouldnt buy it again. jen bought a chicken curry bun ( i think ) and a chocolate tart. she didnt enjoy her curry bun. lol. then i was still hungry so i decided to buy something at egg sake bistro. chicken. bamboo. ramen. something lol. it was OK. OK for $7. i prefer dondon. lol. i got a free inari. that was cool i guess..haha. then we went to move john's car. it was raining. and johns roof was LEAKING. i had a free shower. biggest wth loll. out of nowhere as jen turned the car all this water came pouring down. last time something like that happened i was in the carwash with thy and her brother. i love leaking cars.

cold

happy easter everyone. i mean..whatever ppl say during easter. is it supposed to be a happy event? didnt jesus die on this day? i miss having to study the bible..o.o  im a buddhist, but i went to a catholic primary and first few yrs of highschool. so the bible became a huge part of my life.. i knew about it more than buddhism. i never liked RE classes, but i liked it when the teacher read the bible..it was interesting..

today is friggin freezing. im going to study. behind in my lectures and reports as usual. primary school kids start school next week which means back to tutoring and i haven't even started correcting their work. jollyjoy

yesturday me and fatty sorted things out. it'll definitely be harder in the future..but atm im like a little lost fish with a weak heart...hopefully by then i have evolved into a shark.. n i will be able to let it go. 

we went to meet up with jen on bridge road and shopped. found a fancy little supermarket and got full from all the free taste testing stations. LOL - -. fatty bought what was it..garlic aioli?  and apparently i quote " its a revelation"

on  a side note:

i am addicted to the smell of the body shop's body butter. peach scented. mmmm. i now have my first body butter ..container? =)

met up with thy at melbourne central went home.

enjoy your break everyone! hope you all get heaps of chocolates..id love some but my throat friggin kills =(

via shoelust

so when i buy sandals or thongs ..i never know what size actually fits my small feet... as in
how far back can or SHOULD the sole go? should it end exactly at the tip of ur heel? or should it extend a bit back? by how much? obviously now when i look at this image above i think the more it extends back the better it is.. fashion
loll

friday 8/4/2011

so fatty has a best friend. his name is anel. lol. anel is a funny man. together they're hilarious in a cute lame way haha
so i met up with fatty and a. and we decided to go have lunch. a suggested 'HEYDAY' ...for some reason in my head i was imagining a bar..like the lion's hotel..but as we turned into china town..and turned again into an alleyway i saw it..a sign saying 'HEYDAY'. so ok interesting. thinking that it was any other normal asian restaurant i followed the lameasses into the restaurant..
O.O..it was TINY!. only a couple of tables and chairs. packed into one small room. ok whatever sat down and read the menu and ordered.well they ordered. lol looked to my left and upfront..there i saw asians ordering spaghetti in an asian restaurant. loll. maybe there's something wrong with me but u dont go into an asian restaurant to order spaghetti. loll it looked so authentic..as authentic as HEINZ spaghetti. in fact i am convinced that they use the cans. loll.
a loves eating this dish there..it was o k not the BEST. sorry a. u know i still love you ;)

would i go again..hmm.
but would i want to go out with a and fatty again?..each and every day =D

uni

lol last wednesday (13/4) i went to rmit to study. two things happened.

FIRST
I was extremely tired so i decided to take a nap. my head rested on the desk on my crossed arms. even tho i was 'sleeping' i knew and heard everything around me. then, i heard a voice go excuse me. i ignored. then i heard that voice go is she ok? is she sleeping?..i knew it was me. i bolted up and saw this guy standing there going o hi are u using your computer? can i use it to print? me still half asleep thinking (are u serious omg.) but i told him yeh go ahead. he made small talk 'hey what are u studying? yeh you should take a break every now and then huh?' me smiling and politely replying but i was just pleading inside to quickly print and go away..out of all the computers including the catalogue computers..he chooses to wake up the asian girl and use her computer zzzz.

SECOND:
a group of vietnamese internationals sat next to me.. lol what they did next just made my day. she took out a piece of newspaper and a box milo cereal, poured a mountain on the newspaper and started eating from it...all her friends did. sitting beside the monitor was a bottle of milk. loll i dont know if u find this weird but it was a really strange site to see from me. LOL i took a photo on my mob but i cant seem to connect it to the comp. loll
o internationals u never cease to amaze me with your ways.

a.t:
