hey people, for some reasons, i can never reach all URL ended with blogspot.com in beijing. so i've decided to move to a new URL, go to : http://glasscity.blogdrive.com, it's better there cause i can post pictures on it! go go go!

freezing cold.

my toes in socks are numb, fingers feeling cold doing the typing in cold air. all my windows are shut very tightly, door as well. i'm wearing 2 t shirt + 1 wool sweater, but still have no where to escape from the cold air. it's definitely too cold for mid october. tonight is gonna be 4 degree. and the heater is not on yet. they promised to turn it on today, but guess the water & steam will reach 5th floor soonest by tomorrow, or worse still days after tomorrow.

talked to penny for a while on msn, she said ambitious women might end up to be lonely. has anybody foresees anything? i don't know.

while walking back to shaoyuan after class, suddenly had the mood to prepare a table of good dishes. tried to call everyone on my list, but most of them had to go for evening classes :( but my tastebuds miss m'sian flavour tooo much tooo much... so i still wanted to cook. cycled to the nearest market, grab 3 trays of mini chicken drumstick + 7rmb of assorted vegie and rushed back to shaoyuan. with 7rmb (approx. RM3.20), i got 1 fat eggplant, 2 carrots, 2 tomatoes, 1 cauliflower, 1 onion, 2 capsicum & some garlics, damn cheap!

spent 1 hour doing kunyit fried chicken, vegie curry & fried tomato with egg (this one is chinese). the first two dishes was ok. glad that i brought kunyit & santan powder from home, i even added some kacang kuda & dhal malawi in the curry! yummie, it tasted truly malaysia! QL helped me with reading every instruction written on the recipe while cooking the eggie tomato, a very popular dish in beijing. it's my first attempt to do it on my own. 4 of us, QL, BH, JF & me shared that feast, completed with almond jelly made by BH.

checked the result of my recent exam on chinese literature. thank god, i got 85. and my poor cgpa finally reaches 3.05. hopefully i could maintain & get better grades this semester.
