Raya HOLS

I'm addicted to the internet. I realise my night is not complete if I don't get online. I've kind of established a bedtime routine where I log on msn, chat a bit, kacau people for my own selfish pleasure, read a few blogs, check friendster bulletins, check mail, surf aimlessly, check out people's friendster profiles (it's a lot of entertainment, I actually laughed till I cried), then read more blogs again. Now that I'm home with a meagre 36kbps timenet connection which costs a bomb on my telephone bill, I still can't break the habit.

I am a creature of habit and it's not a good thing. From all aspects.


Here's a bit on how I spent my raya hols. Mum made popia, yumyumyum!!! And by that I mean REAL popia, not those pitifully thin and tasteless ones you get outside. I ate a total of 9 rolls altogether. *happy happy happy!*





Here are the pics



First, lay the popia skin on a flat plate. Next, spread a THICK layer of sweet sauce on one side followed by chilli and garlic. Notice that in the pic I spread everything on BOTH sides. Greedy greedy me, ended up crying my way through the popia. The garlic was so hot! :P

Next would be lettuce, and then the popia filling goes on the lettuce. Chopped sengkuang and long beans and carrot cooked with lots of prawns. :P MMmmmm...

Sprinkle on some crabmeat, and fried garlic and also beansprouts if you want but no thank you, I hate beansprouts.

Lastly, fold everything up. I got to be very careful, my popias are always very fat. Hehe.

There you have it! A delicious, finger-licking, lip-smacking, fat and juicy popia!!


MMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmMMMMMMMm

Enough about food. I'm on vegetarian diet today for the 'nine emperor's festival' so I shouldn't tempt myself too much.

Hols mean stuffing myself with drama series. And the latest one I'm watching is this tvb drama 'tangxin feng bao'. Very very nice. :P

Also managed to go cut and rebond my hair. After my haircut I looked like a mop. A very messy mop. So I went to rebond. After rebonding I looked like an atap house.

I give up.

I went to 2 different saloons to do my hair. Went to RED2 for my haircut first. The service was good, hairdresser was very friendly, very good at making conversation, and very clever at trying to get me to part with my money by coaxing me to try dyeing my hair, or to do treatment or rebonding. It sounds funny but I actually felt like some rich 'tai tai' with this pretty boy making conversation to me and obviously trying to please me, while coaxing me to part with my money. Seriously.

It wasn't such a bad feeling. =P I pay what, so might as well sit back and enjoy having someone to serve and please me lo. Some more he makes good eye candy. =P

To save RM68, I drove straight to Marie's after RED2 to rebond my hair. Waited for 1 hour, sat through the process for 4 hours. Tedious, tiring, boring, and painful. Well, you get what you pay for. When I was at RED2 there was this girl who was perming her hair. And her hairdresser (pretty boy no.2) considerately sat next to her and entertained her throughout her long wait for her perm to set. I miss being entertained by my pretty boy. *pout*

So I spent a whole afternoon and evening on my hair. And ended up looking at an atap house.

Miss atap house went to help sell vegetarian food for the 'nine emperor's festival' today. Will be going to help tomorrow also. All proceeds go to charity. If there were vegetarian food as nice as this everyday, I would gladly turn vegetarian. =P
