"Happy Birthday" means much more
Than have a happy day.


Within these words lie lots of things I never get to say.
It means I love you first of all, Then thanks for all you do.


It means you mean a lot to me, And that I'm proud of you.
But most of all, I guess it means That I am thinking of Your happiness on this,
your day,
With pleasure and with love.

makan sutra

In order to prepare himself for the 2years stay in America next year ,
Wen(my eldest brother) finally set himself on "training".
While my mum is away from Singapore
(she's coming back today .. aww :( i need to return her her bed ),


Wen decided " let's go sheng shiong and i'll cook lunch tmr(saturday)"





i was laughing mad inside and Long(another brother) was looking really dubious about it.





-





i was employed by Wen to TEACH him how to go about cooking..
Though i always had a flair for kitchen stuffs , i seriously had no idea about teaching,
especially .. teaching a virgin , a cooking virgin i mean ..
well , i had never ever in my 16years of life seen Wen cooked anything else except maggie noodles
In order to make me not feel too bad,
i told myself , " ... at least he knows how to use the gas stove "

For a start , at 11am we went to the supermarket and bought some fresh ingredients
And that's one of the main reason why i made this post
when it comes to identifying food,
Those 2 guys become idiots. REAL IDIOTS





Ever since Long mistook vegetables for beans,
sweet potatoes for potatoes
and Wen who bought one cabbage home and requested a salad from me ..
This trip to the supermarket again proves how ridiculous/hilarious they can be.

while we were busy searching for potatoes for the soup,


Wen took me to the fruit section and points to a mountain of a brown-looking fruit and flarantly told me " there!"


*faints*










i don't supposed potatoes appearing at the fruits section ?









and I know both are brown in colour but i swear i won't drink if you add chiku into my soup




We returned home to cook lunch and i wasn't allowed to do any of the cooking since the aim of it was to let Wen learn..


and i finally understand how was it like when my mum taught me how to cook for the very first time...


mum i love you *wipe sweat*



-


Everything was higgledy-piggledy and i had to teach him how to manage the uncooked ingredients,how to dice capsium,how to shred carrots... even how to hold a knife correctly .





up till here , i guessed you can guess how is it like when he STARTED.





However i understand that you shouldn't expect much from a beginner , but ..


i do have the right to complain as my supposed-ly lunch became dinner


because he was really-really-really-extremely-YOU-CANNOT-IMAGINE de .. slow







After like ..8 millon years he finally starts cooking ... ?











ABC lotus soup

and while Wen was struggling with knives and frying pans...

and me too struggling with the fellow meddling with the food...

look at what that another fellow was struggling with..





hopeless creature

开饭咯!(enticing?)

Ranting about what awaits us

At times i'll seat down , and think.
I think about who and what I'm going to be when i grow up(not literally)
I think about who and what my friends are going to be when they grow up
I think about how is it like having to live in a country of 10% income tax/GST/and whatever crap they will invent to drain money out of my pocket

I think about what i have in life , and what i want out of life
perhaps that's a very sad truth : that we may set on different different paths after this year
yes we will meet up often(i hope) and lotsa get-tgt
but it still sounds pretty sad right ?

ADELYN.DOESNT.WANNA.GROW.UP

yes. I don't wanna grow up.
a life of a typical Singapore is as summarised:

  • 0-2years old , who the hell rmbed that part of life?
  • 3-6years old , yes parents are trying to groom you into a mathematics/scientific/artistics/music/gymnastic/sports genius when you are actually neither of them
  • 7-2?years old study like there's no tomorrow and get a piece of paper that proves your capability
  • 2?-6? work for a living , live for your work ... and if you live long enough , you might be lucky to get your CPF back
  • 6?-?? prepare your own coffin, rmb Singapore do not have enough land to bury you so do cremate yourself to save space
so ... you still wanna grow up ?
no wonder Jy wants to imigrate
















I was brought back to the reality after so many years of wonderland
