Oh and this blog, all the links and headings are all from songs :DD One of the ways to personalised my blog :) None other than songs that descibe my feelings :)
These few days don't know why, but I feel extremely tired. Ever since the event on Sat. Oh wait. Have been feeling very tired wayyyyyy before that. Sun didn't managed to catch up much on sleep cause my relatives came to visit early in the morning. But I slept the afternoon away. And the night. Monday wake up at 1pm to eat and rest 1 hour to go back to sleep till 7plus at night. Eat then sleep again. Tues woke up late, had to rush to school. Prepare revision notes in school till late.. Discovered new yoghurt blend :D (YUMMMMMY!) Go home sleep. Today wake up 1pm! Till now.. Still super tired :/
Anyway.... Shall blog again soon! For the time being, its just my lovely bear and my bed and me!
Goodnight! :)

Back in 2010
SO much have happened over the last few months since I last blogged..
September 2010 is a very significant month in my life..
Many things happened..
Ever since I went for my internship, I have been having the tao hua yun aka peach blossom luck.. Frankly speaking, it is rather disturbing especially when they just keep coming when you showed no interest at all..
But that point of time, I was having issues with my now ex-boyfriend.. Way too many conflicts and unhappiness. All I wanna do is escape. Because seeing him or even hearing him just makes my life very miserable. All because of lack of understanding for each other. We have been breaking up quite frequently already.. September just became official.
Breaking up is never easy. Its only a little easier for me this time because we haven't been meeting up for quite awhile.. But its not the same for him. In fact he became the nightmare ex-boyfriend. This nightmare sticks with me for another 1 month before it finally subsides. Now I heard that he went hong kong to work.. Hopefully he'll find someone who is suitable for him..
Thats one significant thing..
There's another one.. And it is the most amazing thing that ever happened to me..
Its very long, so I shall continue in the next post :)
Love my blog skin!
No longer emo looking! Haha. Because now I'm no longer the same stupid girl that I used to be..
Okay!
After this post I shall update everything :)
Not that I think anybody is reading, but its just for me to remember :)

im 19..
Day before, my chef bought me a cake and have a small celebration.. Gave me a surprise when I reached. SO sweet of them..
On that day itself, was supposed to meet him. But cancelled. So went out with Hw for lunch and sing. Variety of songs quite limited though so can't sing much emo songs. Dots. After that went to new york new york with family.. Had some fun there..
Received a cup with a bear stuff inside by my sister, 2 hongbao from mum and brother, a fan from dad..
Next day at work, one of my chef gave me a wallet.. The other say he helped me peel onions as present. Haha. Service colleague one made me drink, one gave me a hug. Unique presents, things that you can't buy..
Friday went out with wingyan.. She came in the middle of service to pass me the cake which is supposed to be stored in the fridge.. After work, she came over again and we went to find a place to eat.. Walked around raffles place, finally settled for lau pa sa.. Walked inside very long then decide what to eat. Had chinese dim sum.. The chee chong fun very nice :D
After that we had her cake. Peach cheese cake. Very nice. I helped her garnish. Cut the peach randomly placed on the cake and it looks like a rose :) Maybe I'm just lucky heh. Then she gave me a apron, and a handmade card with my pic. SO SWEET OF HER right.. I got a cake that she made and present <3
Walked around raffles again.. To clarke quay, act like couples saw a few taking wedding shots. Hmmmm... Then we sit down and take pics too.. Went back to raffles place.. Take more pictures.. With her cap! Haha. I so wanted to wear contact lens now :D Anyone can recommend? Hmmmm..
Best day ever. She can make me smile anyday <3 And I just know what to do on hers :) It's a secret ^^

Day 42
He briefed us on what we'll be doing everyday.. For his side, we'll be producing for the top table dessert and some cake orders..
So the first thing we did is make some sauces.. Dark chocolate sauce and caramel sauce.. Then we slice the bread for upstairs in top table.. Slicing is so fun when you know the right techniques.. Hehe.
Since it's our first day, we went up to show the people upstairs how to plate the parfait and learning how to plate at the same time.. It's the exact same thing that I ate on Tuesday, my dining experience ^^
Chef plated one for us and the service people to see then he told us to make another sample.. It looks a little different from what chef did but is similar.. Hehe. After that we go back to the kitchen to make pate e choux to make profiteroles for next week menu.
The choux is really X.X I sucks at piping.. And today I piped the most things =.= So ugly.. But I managed to get the hang of it after many trays later.. And I didn't use the stencil anymore.. I think I had enough of all that choux. Haha.. And the piping..
Day 40
Day 40. 2nd day 2nd week of baking and pastry..
Can't really recall much.. Even though I'm refering to my notebook.. 2 very important things: I having my dining experience at top table with C.L and J. Then we also have a demo on plain biscuits, how to make them using the folding method to create layers and how to plate it..
Since my little experience of the fine? dining starts at 11.30am and the demo of the biscuits end at 11.20am, my little plated biscuits filled with cream, strawberry and something else will being reserved till I'm back..
This week menu consists of:
Appetizer
Mesclun Salad Tossed with Lemon Parsley Vinaigrette Egg Yolk And Chapon
OR
Soup
Onion Soup Gratineé
Main Course
Braised Veal Cheek in Madeira Sauce with
Whipped Potato & Roasted Root Vegetable
OR
Pan Seared Cod with Ratatouille, Beurre Blanc and Pilaf Rice
Dessert of the Day
Hazelnut Nougatine Parfait Served with Apricot Vanilla Compote
I had the onion soup, pan seared cod and mocktail of the day, the dessert and english breakfast tea.. As I have prepared some of the dishes before like the onion soup, parfait etc, I have an idea of how they taste like..
The food are good, but the service is a little unstable.. But who can blame them? The service staff are only here once a week unlike us who are in the kitchen every single day.. Okay, I shall now evaluate the food better.. Haha.
Just like any other fine dining restaurant, bread are served before the start of a meal.. The bread are made by us, the baking and pastry people.. Haha. Foccacia is nice, I like the taste.. Its a savory bread with onions and some other ingredients on top of the bread.. Kinda taste like pizza.. Actually all bread are good, the only thing I don't like about them is that its cold.. When it supposed to be at least warm..
Amuse bouche for the day is vichychoise, which is also known as the potato and leek (cold soup). I've tried this during the buffet we had the other time and I don't really like the taste but this time round, the flavour is very good. I can really taste the potato and the leeks, yeah I know its potato and leeks soup but the flavours will tend to be different when its cold compare to hot.
The onion soup however is a little disappointing.. I had fallen in love with onion soup since the first time we made it in the skills camp, so naturally I had a little higher expectation of the soup.. It wasn't seasoned enough and the flavour of the onions didn't come out enough..
The main course, cod was slightly undercooked.. Chef L's is cooked just nice, mine is slightly under then J's is almost raw.. Then he had to reject his to get it done right.. The fish is good with the sauce but my sauce is kinda little so by the time I get to the end of the fish, it didn't taste that well.. The pilaf rice served with the fish required more salt, otherwise it tasted just like any rice? Haha.. Maybe with more butter flavour compared to the usual plain rice..
Parfait, there's only one word to describe it, PERFECT! Simply loved it ^^ It wasn't too sweet, the texture is very smooth and creamy, melts in the mouth.. So sad that the portion is so small.. Well, I bet the chefs will say too much of a good thing is no longer a good thing~ But still.. I WANT MORE!!! Haha.
My tea, I saw the packet says black tea, so i assumed that the tea will turned out to be black.. =.= So silly.. When I add the sachet to the hot water and it didn't turn black, I was a little surprised.. Then chef saw that blank looked on my face and asked, then I realised there's no such thing as a BLACK tea, you know, the tea is black in colour.. Haha.
Did I mention that throughout the whole experience my file, my pen, my hat and everything else that was on my lap kept dropping to the floor? -.-" So irritating.. Anyway, in conclusion, I had a great time at the dining experience, especially since I get to escaped from the canteen food for a change..
When I'm back to the kitchen, I made brownies.. At the end of the day during debrief, we were told that we will be having a test on the 12 steps of bread making.. We also have homework, we have to research on how to make carrot cake, mooncake, history of mooncake etc.. Haha. Then I ate my biscuits :)

Anyway, what chef told me is one of the good news I know today.. Another one is..
Edi got promoted! (You deserved it) Yeah~! Haha..
Okay.. I have to end now.. Tomorrow have exam. And its not just mcq.. And I have a headache now for no reason..
Oh. I forgot to mention.. I had foie gras for two continuous days! Can you believe this?
I've tried it, and I think that's enough for me.. Haha. Nice but not really my type of food..
(I'm so glad that I'm in this course ^^)
Working on weekends.. I need $$$$$! I wanna eat more food!!! Think I'll become fat soon.. Haha.. I think I'm going food crazy.. But I eat so much now I got a bit of sore throat. Dots.
Anyway, got to study! Aiming for at least 80%!

13 july
Ta da. This is the ticket.. Hehe XD

We went to eat dinner at long john silver before walking around aimlessly waiting for our turn.. Haha. Then when its almost time's up, we walked the long path to the entrance.. And went into the container???? Haha. I forgot what's that called..
Anyway. It really moves very slowly.. Besides us, there's two more couples inside.. Busy taking pictures with each other.. Then we're the opposite.. Taking pictures of the surrounding..
Haha. I cut my hair yesterday, ow I feel so light headed. And it looks kinda weird at certain angle.. Even though 2/3 of my hair GONE, no one seems to notice.. Sigh. I pity my hair.. Sobs. Oh ya. That might be one of the reason why I take more pictures of the outside than me. Haha.
I realised that throughout the whole journey? I was taking pictures of the same thing over and over again except that its different angle. And I got different results. Quite cool actually. Here's some pictures..
Alright. This is the whole view of the building plus the pretty express way.. Haha. So nice. There's much more but I don't think I have time to add today.
Bet you can never guess what is this.. Haha. I'm so artistic. Haha. You won't believe what is this.. This picture is the combination of the express way, the view of marina barrage and the buildings! Why is it blue and white I not sure.. But that's the 3 places.. Haha.
This is another view of the long express way.. Hehe. Really very nice to look at.. xD
After the ride, we went home.. Can't stay out too late cause tomorrow have school. -.-" Thought of uploading the one and only nicest picture of us taken today.. Budden.. After reviewing and see my ARGH, i think better not. Sigh. Maybe I'll consider putting at facebook with the rest of the pictures.. We shall see..
Signing off now.. So tired.. Sleepy. And I just realised someone ate my whole bar of chocolate! SOBS. And my box of ice cream GONE also. Sad. And I'm broke to buy more.. Take too much taxi recently.. Need start saving again..
Last but not least, thank you, my dear Edi for making me so happy today and the dress! (:

(:
After 2 years, we finally have time to go out as trio again.. Quite fun (: We all changed alot.. Go to different schools.. If your in my school we can kill crabs together.. Haha.. Wait for my cake ^^ 100% nice to eat.. Cause I baked it.. Hehe..
My 1st visit to Fish&Co.. Ate the fish and chips and black pepper sting ray.. Both is good. But the fish is nicer.. Haha. Of course, its FISH & Co.. Naturally fish is better.. For the quality of food served, the service and the portion, I would say its really worth the price.. $13.90 for a huge portion, why not try it? XP Felt like going again.. I think I can finish the whole plate by myself cause its soooo good to eat.. This reminds me that from tomorrow onwards I have to eat that engine food again.. -.-" I missed black pepper pork chops from design.. Sigh..
By the way.. I went to school on Friday to print the notes.. I've printed all recipes from the kitchen and the reading materials.. Guess what? I used up one whole packet of paper (500) plus 1/3.. I had a hard time carrying them home.. Luckily I print finish by the time the computer lab close.. I start from 1 plus all the way to 5 plus.. I don't know why so long.. Tried to print the balance sheet for goventure again but it only come out one page.. -.-" Waste my paper..
In conclusion, today is one of my happiest day so far.. Cause I ate delicious food, meet up with my 2 best friends and my dear (:
Tomorrow is the start of a new chapter in the kitchen.. Hope everything went smoothly and I will not trip at that stupid place again. -.-" SO embarrassing..
