Oh, just when i need my family the most they've decided to celebrate Raya at my brother-in-law's kampung instead! Ohh baguslah tu! Ha lain kali, buat lah lagi keputusan or any decision making without consulting me first! Memang aku emo, and makan hati sangat-sangat dah ni. But of course they don't have to know about it. Nanti jadi adik derhaka. Maklumlah, siapa aku, i'm just that sister yang tiada suami, tiada anak-anak, hence tiada komitmen dan lebih pentingkan kawan-kawan bukan? But wow, spending Raya this year with a grandmother who is very hard to please and a younger brother who i no longer knew is gonna be tough indeed. *sigh* Will try to make the best out of it lah i guess but at this moment kindly do not bring up the subject of Raya to me kthnxbai.

Because i am super-ignorant, i had to be told that 'ayam penyeK' is actually 'ayam penyeT'. and ayam penyet is not from singapore, but rather an indonesian food. That's how we got to Ayam Penyet House di Beach Road di mana kami disajikan dengan ayam goreng (apparently squashed, dont ask me how) dan disajikan bersama kangkung, sambal lada, kobis, tauhu dan tempe (in which i blurted out in my Kelantanese accent - "orghe Kelate tok reti make' tempe wehhh"). But aduhai, begitu enak sekali! The chicken is very tender and crunchy too. In fact, i think i like it better than nasi padang! Actually dah lama my ex-colleague, Han (who is still legally a Singaporean - yang tengah dalam pantang) promote ayam penyet ni. But you know me lah, bila di SG hanya teringat nak makan Taco Bell sahaja. Who can say no to the super delicious chicken gordita itu! dan di KFC sana ada cheesy fries (sama konsep seperti cheesy wedges di sini). Adeh, sedap gila.



The boys also ordered jus duren i.e. jus durian di APH. Walaupun yours truly ni allergic to durian, i took a sip and it is good juga! Jadi sekian sahaja food rebiu saya buat kali ini. Kali ini i didnt shop that much except i went gung-ho with the stationaries di Borders and bought a bunch of postcards, bookmarks and a pen and mendapat hadiah lunch box (juga dari Borders) dan key chain Lego (watak Darth Vader). I am uber-cool.





Ramadhan sudah hampir. Masa untuk menurunkan berat badan! Yeahoo! ;)

Cik Nate wants to go to Singapore again this weekend. Harap-harap tidak ditahan di Kastam lagi, sudah serik! Sebenarnya kali ini tiada agenda yang khusus kecuali mahu makan di Taco Bell (dan mencuba ayam penyek), berjalan kaki menghirup udara segar (udara orang kaya as we call it) at Orange Grove Rd dan lepak di Kino atau Borders seperti ulat-ulat buku yang lain. Dan jika bertemu dengan budak Free Hugs itu lagi, aku mahu peluk dia kuat-kuat. Salaam hormat pada Nanie yang akan mengadakan majlis hari jadi berkonsepkan retro groovy dan serta Desida yang akan mengadakan parti bertemakan Lawrence of Arabia (deng).

Have a great weekend.

If there's one thing we all ladies could learn from the Japanese movie - Love & Honor lakonan Takuya Kimura, then it would be oi belajarlah masak cuisine2/masakan2 yang best. Sebab nanti kalau (like the movie) you kena cerai, or husband you tiba2 menjadi buta akibat demam panas, he can still remember your cooking.

Pergh, I totally cried over that. Suami aku (kalau aku kahwinlah hey) mungkin akan menangis bila merasa masakan aku. Sebab tak sedap. *giggles*
