finally got to cook for my friends, but.....

hehe... i know my friends gonna kill me for this.

today, classes finish early, and i have time from 12pm till nite.. so i decided to choose today to cook for my friends. since one of them is dying for steam fish, i decided to do that for today. so i left my room at 5pm today, and walked all the way to tesco's to get things tt my friends tumpang me to get, and also a fish and some vegetables to cook. i got cod fish.

so when i reached my friend's place, i started rite away. i made i sure i remembered all the things i need to put into the fish... making sure it tastes as nice as my mom's cooking (which i miss deeply for, actually, hunger for.. hehe). so i got all my ingredients done, and started boiling water in a wok. after it was boiled, i placed the dish into the wok, and let it cook for bout 5 mins. when i opened it, it was just rite; the meat looked just rite, and there appeared some sauce, which i made form soy sauce ONLY, hehe.. somehow, it didnt look rite. my friend was still cooking her vege then, so i was looking at her. she took out the COOKING OIL from the cupboard. only then i realised i left that out, cuz if wanna steam fish, must put at least a bit. i brought it to the table to cool, and i had the urgeny to try how it tasted like. it tasted SO PLAIN. i dint like it. i had a notion that i wanted to throw it away, and not eat it... but my friends told me it looked ok, and there should be nothing to worry about. i felt so useless then.

when we all sat down at the table to eat, nobody did say anything bout the fish. instead, they were asking me wat i used to make it, and how i made it. when i saw the looks on their faces, they seem indifferent, but im sure in their minds, it wasnt nice at all. that was one of the reasons why i dint say anything during the dinner, and kept quiet. well, the main reason was because i wasnt feeling well at all. i wanted to go to bed, cuz i was really really sleepy. of all the times, im having an ulcer rite now. so it made me not wanna eat anything. i wasnt hungry at all then. sighs...

i left the dining table to my other friend's room, cuz she wanted some help in her work. we were brainstorming like crazy, which was a good thing, and which made me feel good bout the work i've done, and seriously, the first one ive ever done. haha.. well, it took away all my energy, and at the precise period, i had the urgency of going to the toilet. but it wasnt that bad. so i tho i could hold it in till i get back to my room, which was about 5 mins walk to my hall of residences. well, after the whole brainstorming thing, i went to get my stuff, cuz i needed to get going already (since i had a bladder urgency.. haha, and of course, tiredness). her flatmate was in, and she offered me a spring roll that she got burnt in the oven. well, i was hard to reject. so i ate it. i was chatting with my friend for a while. when i wanted to leave, another flatmate of hers came out and asked whether any of us were good at computers, cuz her comp got infected with a virus with a click of a link. hehe... i know its not funny, but the way i said it was long winded. (dun mind me). i was explaining to her the things i knew, but i couldnt help her, so i said sorry to her. then my friend offered me to drink some water as the spring roll was kinda throat-wrecking. then she remembered she owes me money for the groceries i got just now, and i remembered i owe her some money as well. so we went back to her room again to find out she dint have change, and i gave her back watever i owed her. on the way out, she gave me a pear to eat, which, btw, was really nice and sweet. im tempted to get some next time.. hehe...

so FINALLY i got out of the flat. when i got out, it was raining, and the wind was blowing so strongly. being as sick as i m now, i felt REALLY cold while walking back to my halls. imagine this: i was holding an umbrella (yes, i bring umbrellas out all the time) with one hand, the other scrumptiously eating the pear, and i was freezing my butts off, considering one hand was wet with the juices of the pear, and the other holding the umbrella.

i was doing my laundry yesterday nite (finally rite?). during the washing, i threw my windbreaker into the machine without checking wat i had in my pockets. after it finished washing, i took everything to the dryer, and realised i was short of coins. so i dried it for just 28 mins. when i took them all out later, the clothes were still quite wet. but i dint bother to dry them again, cuz i dint wanna go down again after bout 14 mins. when i got back into the room, i realised i was one underwear short (this is embarassing, but wat the heck). so i went down again with most of my wet clothes to dry again, finding the missing item in the dryer that i was using. when i was checking the washing machine i was using at first, i found a lip care stick, which looks really familiar. but it was all mushy, so i dint bother to hold it up and inpect it. so after my clothes were dried, i went back.

today, when i was wearing the windbreaker to tesco, i realised i was missing my lip care stick. i couldnt be bothered to walk back again to see whether it was still there, but i planned to go when i was going back to my room after the dinner. SO i did. i went there, and found that i was gone. i was heart broken, cuz i lost something that my mom gave to me. it was something that she bought for me that showed me she cared a lot bout me. till now i cant get over this small matter (as i got another one with my other stuff; she got me 2. but still, i cant get over the fact that its gone, and the smaller part of the reason is cuz it costed quite expensive).

well, im back in my room now, all dressed up for bed soon, and bladder emptied. i feel much warmer in my room, but it is still not as warm as i wanted it to be.

thanks for listening. im going to sleep.................... ZzZzZzZz...
