~the REAL pizza~

as i mention earlier tat i am going for REAL pizza for dinner! heehee... Felicia, Philip & I went to this pizza place @ Westend. it is the famous pizza place tat served BIG BIG pizza tat can cut up to 36 slices! woohoo~~!!! & it cost $60! hahaha... well, we only had 3 pple so we din order tat lah! we r not PIG lor, cannot eat so much. we ordered the large one which is juz nice for 3 of us. & the best ting for tis pizza is tat we r able to mix and match 2 different type of pizza. for instance, our large pizza is half Hawaiian & half BBQ Chicken. when u have craving for more than 1 type of pizza, tis combination solve all ur problems! woooooo... Bravo~!!!! cos juz now Phil wanna Hawaiian & i wanna BBQ chicken. if we din had to tis combination, we probably had to fight it out! hahaha... btw, tat shop has a very simple name... Slice~ short & sweet! hahaha...

Me & Felicia... it had been donkey years since we last took a photo together...


Feli & Phil... tis photo look kinda "red" as in Feli's tee is red, Phil's jacket consist of red and even the motorbike captured at the background is RED too! hahaha...

* no photos of me and phil as he said he dun wanna take photos with me lor... oh well, neither do i wanna take photos with him lor! ~hmph~!!!*

here come our LARGE pizza!!! woohoo~~!!! looks yummy? it taste yummy too~! i prefer the BBQ Chicken even there r onions (not my fav) slices in between. & seriously, they tink cheese is very cheap ah? cos is very cheesy... thick thick layer of cheese melted on top of pizza... mmm... as compared, my "Iris' Bread Pizza" so much smaller wor... but i tink both r juz as delicious! hahaha... wat do u tink leh? (pls refer to previous entry for Iris' Bread Pizza)

we r the spokeswomen for Slice Pizza & Liptop Peach Tea... yoohoo~!!! pls support both of them! is definitely GOOD and yummilicious~!!!

after dinner, we decided to take a look @ Felicia's house. she had stayed there for abt 1 sem plus & i haven even been there! hahaha... her balcony is SO SO BIG!!! enough for 3 tables of mahjong! & the houses opp her house r so open concept as in i can see rite thru those houses & noe wat the pple inside r doing. Feli told me there used to be a few diff channels of tv show for her to "choose" from when she stand at her balcony to admire the scenary. hahaha... pple has big LCD screen TV mah... so she benefit! heehee... & i made a discovery at her house... but before tat pls take a look at tis photo here...

tis is not reducdant photo ah... there r some link lor... pls take note of the big Digimon Orange Dragon at the back... the one with BIG head! heehee... it was a stuff toy i won in Ekka 2005 when i 1st came to Brissy. it was called Brayden & is now lying comfortably on my cousin's bed in Singapore. & guess wat i saw at Felicia's house?

hahaha... the mini Brayden! heehee... is tis the brother, cousin or kid of Brayden? wat ever u wana call it lah... i would reckon is the little brother of Brayden ah! hahaha... so cute lah~!!! *i mean the one in pink is CUTE too! woohoo~!!!

"天才厨师之作" :p

heehee... a very "不要脸" title ah... well, i juz wanna intro the brunch i had today. :P

after 3 hrs of lecture on Factor Analysis, i decided to give myself something as reward for being able to "befriend Factor Analysis" after 3 lectures of 3 hrs each. at least now i can trace how my "friend" works & how i may include my "friend" in my 50% research assignment. heehee... anyway, pray hard tat my next "friends", "Multiple Regression" will be juz as "friendly" & "open" as "Factor Analysis" so tat i can make another "friend" at the end another 3 lectures. :D

so wat's for brunch then? i decided to make use of wat i have in the fridge to create something full of my style~ heehee.... i bought so Lebanese Bread yesterday. the bread i ate for brunch almost every day during my NZ trip & sort of miss it ah. back then, i ate it plain sia cos i was always on my move to places to places, no time to sit down and enjoy brunch, breaky or lunch properly. tis time round, i wanna see if i can make something different out of it. i decided to toast the bread in the oven toaster. on top of it i spreaded a layer of butter. added some cube size luncheon meat (too big liao as i lazy to cut smaller ah! hahaha) & sliced mushroom on top of the bread. covered the ingredients with some sweet chill sauce and added a piece of cheese. then i put it into the oven toaster to toast for abt 20mins. heehee... i scared the bread burn so aft 10mins i lower the heat and for last 5mins, i turn to lowest heat to juz let it sizzle a bit. heehee... then my very own "Iris' Bread Pizza" is ready! woohoo~!!!! here is the end result:

it tasted not bad wor... the bread became like Domino's pizza's thin crust. crispy crispy... & the melted cheese juz taste chewy. whahaha... i tot the mushroom wun be cooked but it turn out fine... i am satisfied with tis bread pizza! heehee...


is the same bread pizza, juz tat tis is taken without flash... heehee... i tink i shall change the way i place the stuff next time round. i will use 2 pieces of cheese. one shall be placed rite on top of the bread before all other ingredients & the other on top of the ingredients. i tink a change will make the bread pizza taste differently cos the cheese will melt and stick to the bread & the other will make sure all ingredients stick together... if i have BBQ sauce, it shld be better too! hahaha...

act i shld be doing my presentation but how come i still so good mood to do all these ah? whahaha... anyway, Fiona & Philip juz left my house after coming here with their lunch. weird, rite? specially come and eat lunch at my house. crap for an hr or so, now is time for me to do work ah! later i still need to go out... going for REAL pizza with Felicia and Philip. heehee... i will take some photos and do a comparison with "Iris' Bread Pizza". hahaha...

Korean Hotplate Dinner.. *yum *yum

Thursday was a round of feast at Fiona's place with Jap Curry and Apple Crumble (photos r not available as yet so i wun blog on tat ah. hahaha...)

& yesterday was a fun and tiring day! had to go to uni to meet my groupmates for the debate we r going to have in abt 2 weeks time. had a round of discussion and came up with a slogan for our topic and argument. we r the opposition and this topic itself does not benefit us at all BUT we r finding loopholes in between the topic's statement so that we can have some valid points to argue! heehee... i hope all will be fine! & i am the 1st speaker sia... *N years since i had the last debate sia...*

anyway, after discussion, my 2 grpmates, Jia Ning & Vivien wanna go to Chinatown for some groceries shopping so asked me to along too. heehee... I went with them and after that I brought them to city's Korean restaurant for some yummy korean hotplate. i tink it was too spicy for Jia Ning but she really enjoyed very much. & as we r all very hungry, Vivien had a great time eating and eating & not entertaining to our conversation. hahaha... they r both from China & i was kinda scared that with my "cannot make it" Mandarin, i will have a hard time toking to them. but i was totally wrong! 3 of us had almost the same frequency in our thinking and we can easily click off! had crazy time laughing and joking around. & we juz dun mind being "suan" by each other. and many lame jokes juz crack out of no where at times. well, i certainly had a good time laughing last nite & all my food r digested after tat. hahaha...

now with them around, my impression of pple from China really kind of change to the better side... i have nothing agains Chinese from China but i juz feel tat at times, they r too scheming and cunning and overbearing. but now, i tink i am juz being too subjective initially. heehee... oh ya! the 2 gers oso taught me how to differentiate the better Chinese and lousy Chinese. they said Chinese from different parts of China do differ in terms of characteristics and mentality. hahaha... now i noe... mmm...

okok... is photo viewing again....


Me & Jia Ning... she is from Shenzhen & studied in Canberra for 3 yrs. now she is a PR of Australia... a very friendly and easygoing girl who can come up with all kind of funny ideas and impromptu actions which i had a hard time in reacting at times. hahaha..


Vivien & I. how did i noe her? she was sitting next to me in class on 1st day of lecture and after intro, woohoo~ click off ah! she is from Zhe Jiang. she has a quiet outlook but in fact she is not. hahaha.. she can get quite chatty at times and very kind hearted girl. always reminding us tat we need to drink this and tat to keep healthy and to stay away from getting heaty. hahah...


is their 1st time there so i juz let them choose whatever hot plate they wanna. there r 4 choices & tis was our final decision... the hot plate with seafood, tofu and beef! woohoo~~~ yummy... before it boiled, i took a photo of the ingredients... yum yum ah...

Seafood pancake! whahaha... i miss it so so much... the gers like it too... yeahz~!!!

to be scary on how much we can eat, after dinner, Jia Ning & I still can drink Bubble Tea ah!hahaha.. but Vivien was too FULL to even taste a bit of the bubble tea... heehee...

be my friends, pls

"Factor Analysis", "Multiple Regression", "Structural Equation Modelling"... Any of these sound familiar to u? if u have taken any research method courses before, probably "they passed" by ur "studies territory" before. for me, "they" r juz strangers! i nv met "them" before at any part of my studies. wat i met was "their babies" -- Regression, Correlation, Satistics... etc. but "these adults" r so full grown tat i seriously have a hard time in"examining and exploring them" thorougly. & to hang on to the "examination and understanding of them" for rest of the 13 weeks, i tink i will have to add oil ah!!!

u see ah... for a person who sux @ Maths & when Statistics was an "antique" for her & when she is a slow learner for tis kind of figures, numbers & calculations, she will have a "good" time exploring the world of "Multivariate Data Analysis" sia.

"HUH? wat's tat?".... (noise from my faithful audience)

yeahz~ i heard u~!!! (my response to u guys)

but pls dun ask me to explain cos i will juz blabber on and on without knowing if i am making sense in my explanation. juz noe tat is the research method which i need to learn (compulsory!) for my writing of thesis. argh~~~

last nite i try to "befriend" the 1st member of the family, "Factor Analysis" by going thru the wonderful textbook. guess wat? after reading for less than 2 pages, i was distracted. i went to surf the internet instead. whahahaha... today when i went to class, i sort of understand my lecturer (a charming lecturer... thank goodness ah! plus point for me to attend the class at least) cos i did some reading prior to lecture. i juz wonder how long can i survive sia! i am not someone who will read over the notes before every lecture ah. but for tis course, i need to study beforehand so tat i wun go wonder in outerspace during class. argh~~~

now for every set of notes for tis course, on the top left hand corner of the front cover, i will write "i will survive!" cos i seriously need to psycho myself to believe tat i can make it thru tis course ah. i am juz not a numbers or calculation person ah! so i have to turn myself into a "nun" for tis course and keep on praying and praying for miracle! pls pray for me too ah! die die oso muz get thru tis course if not i will be stuck! argh~~~

~Change of Climate~

juz to share something i learnt in my International Hotel Management Operations' lecture on Friday. i was pondering upon wat my lecturer spoke abt and recalled some of the related movies and articles i read. 1st of all, let me state the discussion today...

Change of Climate

well, reason y climate had been a discussion topic in a hotel mgmt class is becos if there is a major climatic change to our Mother Earth, do u think there will be any more hospitality or tourism activities? be it in any field, climatic changes have major and crucial effects. so it is definitely a topic we shld all bear in mind. remembering its seriousness and consequences if we continue to play ignorance towards its importance.

as i was listening to my lecturer in his explanation on how Global Warming can cause drastic decrease in the world global temperature, i related to one of my Fav movie, "Day after Tomorrow". when i was watching that show, i was still puzzled by some scientific explanation on how global warming can cause ice age. now i finally clear up everything. i am not trying to act as scientist here. in fact i have no FATE with science since pri sch & sci has always been an enemy of mine. i jus trying to explain base on my understanding abt how global warming can cause ice age.

according to my lecturer's explanation & the clarification stated in "Day after Tomorrow", it is saying tat due to global warming, large amount of fresh water has been discharged into the ocean. & there is a current pattern along the North Atlantic Ocean which has a regular procedure of bringing the water to and fro the North Pole and Atlantic Ocean. it is like a regular cycle that happens & becos sea water or salt water is denser so this procedure of carrying water to north pole has been a smooth sailing one in exchange for the ice water from north pole. HOWEVER, if human beings continue to discharge large amount of fresh water by stimulating global warming, tis regular cycle will be disrupted. & we will be suffering from major decrease of the world's temperature and experience very extreme weather changes. & global warming is caused by the excessive burning of coal and many many other harmful ways such as gas discharge from cars' exhaust pipe. if each and every one of us will do a bit in conserving the world by doing less to harm our environment, the damages due to the climatic change can be minimised. i am in no position to say tat we r able to avoid all damages but at least if we start to do a little on our side, tings might get better in future. do u noe a simple way to contribute is to conserve energy so tat less coal will be burnt? so in future, before u switch on the light or any electrical appliances, ask urself "is there a necessity for it?" if is not, juz dun switch it on and leave it on for nutting.

haha... i am sounding like some environmentalist here? no lor... i juz tink tat it is really kinda scary if one day our Mother Earth suffer badly due to human beings' selfishness and ignorance, who r the ones who will REALLY get affected? is still human beings afterall... if u din watch "Day after Tomorrow", watch it & u will noe y. if u have watch it before, u shld noe wat i am saying abt the horrifying damages. i tink we shld all stop living in "Planet Self" & contribute our bits and pieces for our one and only "Planet Earth".

*Sidenote: according to my lecturer, "Planet Self" is the term to describe the planet where pple of Gen Y (tat's most of us!) r living in. a planet of self and own only... everything share b ignored.*

anyway, a photo of the Sweet Potato Sago dessert tat i ate juz now. it was cooked by my housemate, Grace. she was the one who gave me the "tang yuan" tat day & today another dessert. hahaha.. with her around, i tink i am gonna put on weight becos of all the yummilicious desserts ah! but no matter wat, i oso wanna say THANK YOU to Grace! tis is my 1st time eating sweet potato sago. i am a sago-lover and tis dessert is juz rite for me cos i dun eat sweet potato usually but now i am eating it with sago! hahaha...

yummy Sweet Potato Sago... cooked with love and warmth. love becos is cooked by Grace and her bf who will be leaving Brissy tomolo after spending 3 week hols in Brisbane to accompany her... warmth becos is cooked by the caring and lovely housemate! :D
