I had my first cooking lesson yesterday. I didn't burn down the kitchen. The food was edible. Cool, right?? =P But I think I'll starve when I get to Australia. I still can't tell the difference between garlic and ginger. Ok, that's a slight exaggeration. I can, but I mix them up sometimes. Which is, you know, not something I should be doing if I have to survive on my own cooking (and Carmen's and Yee Hooi's - but I don't think I can count too much on that - kidding, kidding !!). XP
But I digress.
So now I know how to cook rice, chicken, fish, vegetables and soup. But that's only the cooking part. With the exception of rice, I don't really know how the preparations for those dishes go. Like, chopping the chicken and stuff. I did slice the fish yesterday, and it's REALLY gross. I mean .... gaaaaaaaaah. It's something I really have to learn to get used to, I guess. I don't mean that it's disgusting to handle or anything, I don't mind that so much. It's just that, well, I don't like seeing it dead while it's still raw. Cooked is okay. But raw .... ugh, gives me the chills. >.<
So anyway, I really really have to learn up about the spices and everything that I apparently eat everyday without realising. I never knew there was so much salt, garlic and ginger in the food until yesterday. Talk about a sudden realisation. Then the next step will be to actually go to the market and learn how to buy the stuff. Sigh .. that is going to take a looooooooong time.
Oh well, at least I have something to occupy myself with. Somehow, watching TV, reading story books and day dreaming don't seem as appealing as they did before SPM. Yeesh.
Speaking of which, I did have something to do with my time today. Jvn Yi asked me whether I wanted to go to Sunway Pyramid because they were celebrating Jennie's birthday (belated). So, well, why not, because I'd be in pyramid in the morning anyway (skating), so I said I'd go. So we had lunch at Genki Sushi then watched Enchanted. And I had to carry my skates around all over the place like a ding dong. >.<
Chen Joyce. Me. Jennie. Pei Ye. Kimberley.
Yinn Jye. Louis Nga. Jvn Yi. Hou Chuen. Theng Fei.
No idea why the wanted to take a picture with me. I told them I'd take a picture FOR them.
And now I'm trying to figure out how to work the online Student Visa Application thing. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp !!!!!
