Dummies guide to save a 留学生 from deprival

By attempting to cook food from home by yourself when you've never cooked a non-instantified meal. Not to mention your microscopic apartment has only one electric stove and that's about it. 便利ですね。。。

TRIED to look up the recipe for Nasi Lemak.

Ingredients
  • 1 Cup Rice,(washed and drained)
  • 2 Cups Santan
  • 1 Pandan Leaf, (tied in a Knot)
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • (and this is just the ingredients for the rice)

    Just by reading the ingredients I gave up. Where the fark am I suppose to find damn coconut gratings in Japan? I can't even find a coconut, hell, what more the gratings??? And pandan leaves? I sure as hell wouldn't wanna be caught in a situation explaining what a pandan leave is to the shopkeeper.

    To make things short, I scrapped the Nasi Lemak idea in less than 2 minutes.

    Curry Fireflies

    You Are 60% Slacker

    You are a bit of a slacker - though you can pull it together and live a somewhat normal life.
    If you're young, this is probably phase you'll outgrow. And if you're already grown up, you need to get off the couch a bit more!


    Thats more than 50% of an average person so hell yeah! I'm a slacker!

    I ate curry at an Indian restaurant in Japan. In Japanese you'd say its ぜんぜんからくない! Why do they even bother calling it curry when it isn't an ounce spicy? They use pepper instead of chillis!!! Eating there reminded me alot of home like when I was bumming in Cyber, me and Sandy would chill at the mamak downstairs with teh ais and roti canai + tandoori (i'm making myself hungry typing this) while I watch the mamak workers checkin her out. Also reminded me of my after working hours where me and some friends at work have dinner at the nearby mamak place where I made the waiters call me "boss". It was a nice feeling eventhough I practically forced them to say it.

    I also saw fireflies for the first time in my life! I'd actually enjoyed it if my damn contact lenses weren't so friggin dry and made me 40% blind.

    And I am 70% behind schedule in studying yet doing nothing about it. Yayness.

    Oh, and I just moved my blog from LJ. Might've should've mentioned it at the beginning of the post.
