Assam Fish Curry

Woke up 9.30am this morning and went marketing with Derrick cos I am cooking Assam Curry Fish for lunch today. Woohoo...I had tried Killiney's Assam fish previously at my work place and like it very much so I decided to buy their pre-mixed chili paste from Killiney and DO-IT-MYSELF (DIM)

Look quite spicy right?? Not really... It's just nice. Presentation not so nice cos I can't wait to quickly stuff the fish into my stomach... So hungry by then.

Here's the ingredient (2 person serve)
Batang Fish
Assam Java (Tamarind) Paste
Lady fingers (2)
Brinjal (1 small-size)
Pineapple (1 slice-buy the sweet one)
Tomato (1)
Ginger
Ginger bud
Shallots
Salt/Msg/2-3 pieces of Chilli padi

DBS LIFE

I am still in the midst of training and hopefully I can start work in March. Got a chance to meet my boss and some of the colleagues on Thursday for Reunion Dinner at Jumbo. From the first impression, I supposed they are quite easy to get along with. Nice people, chatty, welcoming.... I got to really thank God for placing me in the Parkway Parade branch. Somehow, I like that place a lot and I think it's a place of great potential and development. Hope I can foster wonderful relationships over there. Help me Lord!

The thought of starting work really excites me but the thought of the challenges I am going to go through makes me feel that I should enjoy myself while I still can. haha....

不在乎天長地久只在乎曾經擁有

Andy Lau , 周润发 and 梅艷芳 in this 铁达时经典广告
If only you remember, more than 16 years ago....It's a very palia phrase that every man use when they were ditched by their girlfriend.... "不在乎天長地久, 只在乎曾經擁有".

hahahaha.... And Andy Lau is especially handsome over here in the commercial. And his kiss is like oooolala to me during then. I told myself during then "I want a boyfriend like that!!"

Why am I blogging about this???

Cos... this is my Valentines' present.... Derrick darling... 不在乎天長地久, 只在乎曾經擁有. I love you baby!!

Jovial Ah Ma..... Angel in disguise??

She is such a lively and energetic old lady. I seldom or probably never met such a cutie pie who sells tissue paper like she does. She indeed made my day!! I would usually feel a lot for the old or disabled who approached me to buy tissue paper. It's hard to say no to them. I would usually buy from them cos a dollar doesn't mean a lot to me but it can mean a lot to them. Unlike the rest who often portray helpless, she is so jovial, humorous and engaging. Everyone was so entertained by her and ended up helping her with her tissue sales. Maybe she is another angel like the Philip in our church. I tried asking her if she is an angel..... she smiled at me. hmmmmm.... maybe I will see her in heaven?!! Ok.. that's flaky! Enjoy the short clip

P/S: oh my curly hair is getting manageable now!! I figured out that I should just let it dry and not blow dry it. Tks meixiu

My Artwork....

this is my first attempt using Adobe Premiere to edit and create a trailer.... With my aged camcorder but renewed passion in shooting, spending over 10+days to edit a 8min trailer.... Hope it will be an eye treat to all regardless if you had gone to the Retreat @ Sunway.... Enjoy!

Not forgetting to thank Serena for lending me the software, Guowei for solving the crack-code for the software, Josephine for her 2hrs crash course on how to use the software.... last but not least Ruxin for her support, ideas and understanding.........

I love Saturday

I'm loving Saturday like never before. I have never appreciate Sat like I appreciate it now. And you know the reason why. It's the only day that alarm clock is spared from being "hum-tam" (slam hard) by me for disrupting my beauty sleep. Sat is always a time of dating. We consistently went to Orchard for the past few week. And we concluded that we have very little family commitments and that's free us up to go out so often. Dunno if it's a good thing ?!

Wanna just recommend a place for nice Japanese food. Tampopo located at Liang Court. Wooo... we queued for almost 40 mins for a seat inside. But the food is really worth the waiting.

The famous "Tonkatsu Ramen "

Beef Bake rice. OMG.. the beef is so tender

After a sumptuous meal, both of us went to a Vietnam coffee house for their famous drip coffee

唐太 is cooking again!! Was inspired my cg member, Amanda who cooked a very superlicious western carrot soup and bake fish for her hubby, Jankees on Thurs. It smell so good on that day. Hence, I thought of doing the same soup for Derrick too.

Tadah... Not too bad!! I think I need to add Thyme or something to bring out the smell.

And I attempted to make "niong hiang" for the very first time. I thought it taste nice too, only that I put too much mince meat.

We had Popiah session for Cg on Thurs. It was from the famous Kway Guan Huat (Joo Chiat Original Popiah Skin)... Add: 95 Joo Chiat Road. Personally, it's the best popiah I've tasted thus far. We had fun time making our popiah.

Oh anyway... I believe I'm gonna help blogging world increase another regular blogger. Hopefully !!!! (cross my finger). Just help that Linying to revamp her blog.... Check out her blog: http://linstars.blogspot.com/

Updates

I have accustom to my body clock to jump out of bed by 6.30am every morning. Ok la.... I lied!! I will still "nua" a bit until 6.45am before I really decide to brush my smelly teeth. You know what...15mins of "nua-ing" mean alot to me cos the extra 15mins will feels like another 40mins at 6.30am especially. Alright!! It's all craps!! It's not so easy for me cos of my previous lifestyle as a Financial Consultant. But I think I am slowly getting used to waking up early and breathing the morning air makes me feel so freshen up.

Anyway... while everybody around me are getting pregnant AGAIN!! On the contrary, I need to postphone my planning to further notice as I gotta be stable in my new job before I can do our B 记划. Maybe I will have a rabbit baby near end of 2011?? Just a disclaimer. Never take me seriously ... cos I always change my mind on this baby matter.

You can see it's a short post cos I am feeling sleepy now and still want to maintain my blog.... Yawn~~~~
