in my head : leaving through the window - something corporate

i sat here for 10 minutes staring at my screen because i stupidly highlighted all the photos i wanted to look through and dropped them on the photoshop icon in my dock INSTEAD of the preview one ( which is the one i originally wanted them to open in ) . yes , i'm the kind of girl that needs a calculater to calculate what 213pixels X 4 is . -_-

the other day i was surfing the web and suddenly i thought of something corporate and really REALLY wanted to listen to them . listening to them made me reminisce about my days in secondary school and led to me wanting to look through all my old photographs . it also made me really sad . but bugger that . i'm all better now and i managed to sort through a whole load of photographs that deserve their 5 minutes of fame online .

i've been busy reading food blogs and wanting desperately to return home so i can try them out . i hate having to pay for my own ingredients . what i did try though , was steamed pandan chicken + vanessafrida's miso cod . there were leftovers ( pandan leaves + coconut milk ) from the nasi lemak party that we held last saturday so i googled what i could do with those . it turned out really REALLY well .


ginger + garlic + chilli


accompanied with some more leftovers - cauliflower ! * can someone explain why cauliflower is waaay cheaper than brocolli ?? it is way more disgusting but i'm on a budget so i can only afford cauliflower : (

the miso cod recipe was something that i've been wanting to try out for a long time . unfortunately i haven't been able to find cod ANYWHERE . but i was desperate , so i just bought a basa fillet and tested it out on that . i think cod would've been way better because it's a fattier fish . also , i didn't have mirin so i made my own with white wine and sugar ! the experiment turned out much better than i expected . the picture doesn't look like much but trust me when i say it was very very tasty after being marinated for 4 days .

i would also rinse it properly next time . being the kiasu person that i am , i was worried that if i did as the recipe indicated ( and rinsed the fish off excess marinade ) the fish would be totally bland . i merely swiped the excess off with my hands and as a result , it was a bit too salty .

ANYWAY , i started out wanting to do just a small update and split my pictures into a couple of entries . BUT i think i'll just do them all in one because i really do love reading long posts .

jon's archi project that i personally think is brilliant . something about 24 points of contact and all stringy stuff . the drawing gives you a better idea ! it's supposed to be a fruit stand but because sam has partial hearing , she only heard " fruit " and thought it was supposed to be a fruit bowl . it does kind of look like an avant garde-type thing .


read more at jon's blog .

it's been a long time since i bothered to dress up to leave the house . i've got a ton of excuses ( none of which i'm sure you're interested in hearing ! ) but when my cavity filling popped loose and i needed to see the dentist , i knew i needed to calm my nerves . this is my dentist outfit : state of georgia dress underneath a vintage blazer + kookaii leather glvoes + vintage bag + target grey stockings + miss sixty peep toe heels .



AND in full size glory for all to see :





i forgot to mention dopez's gold casio too !





i'm putting dr. koller's address and phone number because he is one of the best dentists' i've ever been to . he's warm and personable and he's got an awesome support team ( thanks to sylvia who managed to slot me in last minute ! ) .

i love this skirt very much please . birthday's round the corner . . any takers ? : )

other thing i had to do was help melvin with his croc's project . he had to conceptualise a series of postcards for crocs .


i'm holding an " umbrella " because croc's are water resistant !

all this while i thought i had no butt . now i realise that's not true - my butt is really big .


the only good thing that came out of it raining and raining , was the most gorgeous rainbow you ever did see . i tried eating the rainbow .




messing around for the camera !

THE QBH PARTY WAS BAD . i'm sorry . it went from " everyone is going " to no one fucking going . then i swear the music was retaliating too cause everytime we sat down it'd be pretty okay and when we stepped foot on the dance floor it would SUCK REALLY BAD .







i am proud to say i have not missed any classes this semester ! it might be only the third week but i think that's still progress .
