I'm seriously going to miss 嵐の宿題くん.

No more Aibaland, no more silly experiments, no more Odoroki no Arashi!, no more Ogura-san, no more pajamas episodes, no more No Money SP, no more red couches, no more silly yet yummy looking food, no more Sho cooking, no more Ohno vs Sho vs Guest drawing, no more producer abuse, no more Aiba abusing, no more big box, no more Matsujun and Ohno hiding behind the box, no more guest abusing, no more flower booth, no more comedians abuse, no more cuddling on couch, no more Sho and his stiff body, no more Ohno failing to intro food, no more fail!Sho-right-after-News Zero, no more pinkness, no more...

I have no idea why do NTV wants to end AnS. It has been running for 4 years and the crews are from C no Arashi. It is every Arashi fans' favourite variety show among the 3 they are hosting now.

8 years of awesomeness is ending next Monday.

I do not know if I will enjoy their new prime time NTV variety show, Arashi ni Shiyagare. But AnS will definitely be my favourite Arashi variety show.

RETURN ME MY 嵐の宿題くん!!!

I WILL MISS OGURA-SAN!!!! T.T

FYP was supposed to be over.

Oh, it's really over.

Submission done.

Presentation done.

Taking down of display done.

Post FYP was supposed to be relaxing.

I was supposed to be Facebook gaming the whole day.

I was supposed to catch up with my dramas.

I was supposed to be downloading Toma's videos.

I was supposed to be weaving beads.

But,

somehow, it felt like post FYP is so much more hectic than FYP itself.

A list of things to be done within a week or less.

Online folio to upload, images to prepare, spreads to layout, namecards to be printed, cloths to be bought, more spreads to layout, spreads to be printed, mock set up to be done, discussions to be held, reports to do... blah blah blah.

But still,

I'm happy.

I feel lucky to be busy. :D

Anyway,

I'm constantly checking my email.

Every 30mins, I guess.

Please reply me soon, STB.

I have to submit it by 8 March!

Please please please. D:

And, Clara Loh,

please blog in English or Mandarin so I do not have to rely on Babelfish to understand what the hell you are blogging.

:D

Today, I was shocked to realise that Yu Aoi is already 24, when she actually looks like 16.

FYP is over (pretty much, I think? still unsure about the external presentation part).
Presentation was today (no, yesterday).
Though it got delayed for a whole 2hours, it went pretty well.
Better than I thought.
I'm definitely a happy girl.
Went for a mini celebration (dinner) with sis.
And I'm having another celebration with the whole family tomorrow (no, later today) at Manpuku.
Bravo, $6.50 deal!

<<< Rewind

Went for Napfa on 23rd.
Well, we all flunked it.
ROFL.
We all had terribly sore body for the next day.
Felt a whole 10 years older.
Never underestimate Napfa.

Forward >>>

Recently, I'm really addicted to Photoshop.
Have been photoshopping photos.
Trying to get nice effects.


Ciao.

I remember watching this CM during my last Japan trip.
Very catchy song.

我不想聼 “加油!”
我只想聼 “你需要我幫你嗎?”

Really.

Since the day i submitted my FYP report, there have been not much progress in my project.
Total fail.
That Fri was shopping day 1.
Went IKEA with clara right after the submission.
Had a super heavy lunch or meatballs, chicken wings and fish & chips in chives sauce.
Shopped and bought 3 plushies for Tian You (though I considering keeping the carrot one for myself. HA.) and 2 metal racks for my FYP.
I'm broke. D=
Bought paper from Urban Write before tabao-ing bubble tea home.
Went for dinner at aunt's house.
Was supposed to go shopping with sis but I ended up visiting IKEA during lunch, so we ended up shopping after dinner.
Got my disposable camera's film to develop, shopped at Century Square.
Bought new undergarments, shorts and skirt.
Still deciding whether to buy a pair of flats from Mondo.

The very next day was shopping day 2.
Pretty extreme too. XD
The whole family drove down to IKEA for hotdog lunch (bravo, $7 family set)
Was there as one of the racks i bought on Fri was faulty.
I got a cash refund from IKEA.
So we went in for me to buy a new rack.
Ended up, mum bought CNY PLANTS x 4 and a kitchen rack.
And, I bought a new rack and a kids easel and paper for the easel.
Was targeting that kids easel since the day I saw it at IKEA.
As for why didn't I get it during my past IKEA trips:
1. Most of my trips to IKEA were by the shuttle bus. How to bring back?
2. Mum will bury me alive for bring such useless and huge stuff home.
3. No money. XDDDD
So, that day when mum was choosing her CNY plants, sis and I were waiting at the side with the trolley.
This easel was right next to us.
I was bored so I told my sis,
"If I can lift this up and place it into the trolley, we are buying it."
And so, it went in successfully.
But point #2 above worried me.
So I said,
"If mum can lift this off the trolley and put it back into the display boxes, we are not getting it."
In the end, dad and mum did not say anything about us getting it. =D
Grabbed a roll if the paper and TAH DAH~
MY EASEL FOR DOODLING!



It's black board at a side and white board on another. The paper drapes over the black board side.


The roll of paper hidden inside.


Was supposed to find my IKEA set of markers (won from some sec school contest) but ended up finding my set of Miffy crayons (won from some school contest agian).
Miffy!

Went Tampines Mall straight after the IKEA trip.
Sister was interested in getting a pair of sandals.
Went Tampines 1.
Uniqlo-ed.
I seriously think dad hates our every trip to Uniqlo.
It will ALWAYS end up to be a big bag of stuff home.
SO, mum, sis and I bought black turtlenecks (LETS HAVE A WINTER HOLIDAY), bought a long sleeve black v-neck for dad, sister bought a black tee, I bought a white tee and 2 black tees.
Hello big Uniqlo bag!
Hello long Uniqlo receipt (hundred plus).
Went Isetan next.
Failed to get anything so we went Cotton On.
Sis managed to get her plain tees.
By then, it was dinnertime.

Sunday was NOT shopping day.
Yeah.
Dad must be happy.
ROFL.
Was chionging my grandma's birthday present.
Her birthday dinner was on that very evening.


The presents (HK from my mum which she bought from Japan, beaded charm handmade by me) and card (POP UP card hand drawn and handmade by me). Spot the similarity in them. XD

And of cos, the feast that evening:


Highlights:

Crispy roasted pork.


Fried gyoza from Market Drive. YUM. We bought like 50 gyozas. XD


Sashimi. I was totally feasting on them.


Sushi. Only ate two from this plate as it was on the other end of the table. It's ok though. The sashimi was at my end. XD

Yesterday, I planned to do my project at aunt's house.
But as I had to wake up at 8+am, I was half awake the whole day.
Napped a little, get woken up by the baby's crying, napped a little again, baby cry again.
Brrr...
Tian You was sooooo noisy.
My achievement for the day was I managed to carry the baby and walk around the house.
The baby was not 'tied down' and was crying.
So to be exact, I was carrying a brawling baby who was moving like a boxer.
And I was VERY worried about dropping him.
As expected, Tian You calmed down after I cooed him.
He loves to be carried by people.
Attention seeker.
Bleh.
Also realised that he seems to have grown longer.
His mother was saying how he did not grow fatter but have grown longer/taller.
Awww...
He has long fingers and is going to be tall.

XD
This is how he looks like when I 'forcefully' remove his 'silence device' from his mouth:


Anyway, went Tampines Mall after that.
HAHA.
Sister made up her mind and bought that pair of sandals.
Mum wanted to buy a pair of flats but they were hurting her just be wearing and they were out of bigger size.
CHARLES & KEITH FAIL.
Mum and I bought a belt too.
A belt.
We were 'fighting' to see the belt should belong to who.
Haha...

Ok, that's all.
I have blogged a long post to prove that I'm alive.

Tired.
Nights.

Final month.
2000 words report to be done.

Plastics to be bought.
Papers to be bought.
Test printing to be done.
Actual printing to be done.

I want FYP to end asap.

I need freedom.

HAIR UPDATES
I went to get a haircut.
No surprise.
But the new hairstyle is kind of a pretty daring decision.
Did not get the result I want but thinks that it still looks pretty ok.
But the right side is really SHORT.

FAMILY UPDATES
My cousin-in-law gave birth to a baby boy on 7 Jan 2010.


My very first nephew.
1 week old now.
Very cute.
Very active.
Shits a lot.
Very noisy when he cries.

ENTERTAINMENT UPDATES
Addicted to The Mentalist recently.
So awesome.


FRIENDS UPDATES
Jess gave up on Kame.
I'm still in a state of shock.
Really.
Like "WOW."

I love the works done by the illustration students.
Kind of made me feel a little demoralized.

MISC UPDATES
I gained weight. D:

I baked, drama-ed and blogged (is now) today.
Initially, I planned to bake the macarons from 8am to 11am.
However, the egg whites killed me (and my arm).
I'm supposed to whisk the egg whites till they are firm.
Everyone uses the electric beater.
Sadly for me, mum is not home so I have no idea where is it.
However, I do know where is my little whisk, so I beat it manually.
A job that is supposed to take 3mins (by electric beater), took me almost 2hours (manually) to complete.


Still too 'watery'.


Finally.

My right palm was damn red and numb when I was done with it.
So, by 10am, I was only done with the egg whites.
Brr.
Blended the powdered sugar, powdered almonds and cocoa and folded them into the egg whites.
Around 10.45am (at some point I was busy keeping my sugar as there were ants on my kitchen counter), I pour them into my pastry bag (aka my zip lock bag) and created a 'moat' for it (ANTS).

Washed the dishes and the kitchen sink's drainage choke, causing dirty water to sip out from the cabinet and spilling on the floor.
Total horror.
Grabbed the mop and cleaned up the mess.
Luckily, I had 30mins before my lunch date with Sharon.

-Lunch break @MOSBurger-

Went to NTUC to grab some containers.
Back home to continue baking.
Banged kitchen counters to shoo whatever possible lizards.


Yeah! My batter is still safe from ants!
Cut the tip of the bag and started piping them on the baking sheeting.
First time doing it so I totally sucks at drawing circles.


The first batch that goes into the oven.


And TAH DAH~ They are all not circular.


Burst!


At least, I managed to get the 'foot' formed at the base of the cookies.
Managed to get nicer circular cookies during the next few batches.
Made the filling while the cookies cooled down.


The filling is way too easy to make and I still have extras.
The only difficult part of it was grating chocolates.
While the filling cools down, I started working on the chocolate pudding.
Had to make them as I have leftover egg yolks.


Surprisingly easy to make and I have 6 pretty servings.
Not sure about the taste though as they are still chilling in the fridge.
Finally, I spread the fillings of the macarons and I'm done at around 4pm.
Cleaned everything up by 5pm (including watering my mum's plants).
Totally forgotten to shoot the macarons before freezing them in the freezer.
Argh.
Have no idea how they taste too, since they needed 1 day to let the flavour sink in.
Overall, quite successful I should say.
Might consider making them again in the future IF THEY TASTE GOOD.

ROFL.

THE END.

Nice CM with good looking men =D

Starting to like Tsumabuki Satoshi a lot recently.
He is seriously good looking. XD

I think my mum has awesome timing.

Wanted to wake up at 8.30am today to complete some work but ended up waking at 9.30am.

Mum was washing the toilet so I can't brush my teeth.

So I went back to zzz.

The next time I woke up, I think it was around 10am.

Mum was bathing in the toilet = I can't brush my teeth again.

So I went back to sleep.

In the end, I woke up at 10.30am and luckily, the toilet was available.


THE END. =D
I love flea market!

I keep getting more and more worried as i attend those consultation sessions. The way he commented about my project is as though it will get rejected by the other lecturers during crit1. Seems like contacting STB is my only choice.

Monday, November 02, 2009

Thanks for all the concerns and ♥ in the tagbox. =D



The twin tower of design books.

Borrowed 4 books from Tampines library and 8 books from TP library.
The other 27 books are part of my design books collection.
I dug them out as reference for FYP.

FYP kills braincells.
It is practically part of my life now.

Museum tour tomorrow!
Jiayou!
