thanksgiving

another outdated post.. =)

thanksgiving is a BIG celebration in the states because of the pilgrims last time ... (find out yourself, is interesting)

the traditional meal will be turkey, carousel, mashed potatoes, pies etc etc etc

so...

the stupid university dining halls have the thanksgiving dinner on thursday (not my working day)...my supervisor, tom (well known to be a gay there,lolzzz), asked us to work due to shortage of man power in the dishroom....

and...

cz of $$$, i AGREED...but i regretted after that...on normal days, the number of people will reach approximately 600 but on thanksgiving dinner, it reached 1136!!! closed to double...the plates, bowls, glasses came NON-STOP!!!

in the end, i was still happy cz i see $$$ =D

joel, another supervisor, saved some cold food for us =( but it tasted not too bad...there were turkey, mashed potatoes, pies, casserole like those traditional food...

traditional dinner 1

the next day, friday, chia sin and i went for the international student fellowship thanksgiving dinner again for fun...and again turkey was served, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole etc etc etc... =/

traditional dinner 2

we had fun though especially when we were discussing about our own culture with the others...something like

this..

and we answered hari gawai as an ocassion something like thanksgiving! what the hell...we crapped so much! and even till chinese new year cz is a reunion for the family like them having reunion with the family during thanksgiving! lolzzz


then chia sin and i went off to kansas city with megan and her friend, also, michelle =)

megan's family was so nice!! her parents accompanied us throughout the whole break, talking to us, knowing more about us and bringing us around....really nice family...

the next day we went to a church place for pancakes breakfast...is not an american culture but a culture for the langfords... =D the black stuff is burnt pork sausages, nothing gross... =p

heidi, megan's mum, taught us on how to roast the turkey =) dad, see this!!
and i just came to know that there's 2 types of meat in a turkey after roasting, the top part will be white meat and the bottom part will be dark meat and is due to all those haemoglobin in the turkey...

the table was set up by david i think...megan's dad btw... =)

traditional dinner 3
perfect!
even the napkins has turkey printed on it!! and is beautifully decorated with fall decorations... <3

we had dinner at 3 and finish cleaning up by 4.30pm...we left the house to kansas city, MO at 5 something for ...

the countdown of thanksgiving? haha...

the town was beautifully litted up with all the lights around the buildings and fireworks but the fireworks lasted for only 5 minutes! =( the sky was so dark but it was only 6pm

michelle lee, michelle lam, chia sin and megan!!!

so grateful and thankful for everything i owned now and of cz megan's invitation to her house! =)

you've gotta move it, move it

sounds familiar?

yea the madagascar song (i think so, i didnt watch)

btw, i'm moving to another apartment in january....oo la laaaaaa XD

if you know what's going on, you will feel happy for me but too bad i'm moving not for that reason....

but still i'm glad i'm moving!!! wheeeeeeeeeeee

birthday post =)

i know my birthday was like wayyyyy back in october and i should have blogged it during thanksgiving brake break....too bad, lazy bugs attacked + thanksgiving SALES + busy in friend's place + etc etc etc... =p

this year's birthday was not as fun as last year though but i've received lots of presents including one very very very unexpected gift... =) or =( ??

i jokingly asked boyfriend to bake me an edible birthday cake using anything he can find or just use the pre mixed flour...he was just too cute to go buy flour, sugar, butter, vanilla extract and whatever he thinks he can add into it...and texted me, COME OVER NOW! I'VE BAKED CAKES FOR YOU!!! awww *teary eyes* (hah, as if! =p)

so i went there, i thought was just one cake...but there were 3 cakes! 1 with vanilla essence, 1 without and 1 failure strawberry ice cream cake which in the end turned out to be strawberry hard flour mix....=D

the one which looked more perfectly is with vanilla and the other with a hole pinched by someone is without vanilla essence...look nice for a 1st timer right =)

happy birthday to me <3

the very contradicitng outfit the people wear...some with coat/sweater, some with t shirt and the photographer was actually topless...boyfriend's housemates and friends...i'm still the only girl!! =(

is supposed to be michelle lam but my name was too long for them to write on the cake so it became ML...is just my initials, dont think more than that =p

i had no choice but to give them thumbs up cz it really tasted good....they made it without recipe book too!! just by feel...

wrong feel = failure

on my birthday, we had spaghetti for lunch cz it was a stupid MONDAY and i have full day of classes from 930-620...and boyfriend has work at 5-9...so we could only have lunch....

happy 20th birthday to me...

awwww i joined the BIG TWO list....sadly i'm still underage!! wat the hell!!! US actually changed their legal age from 18 to 21!!! whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???

feel fresh

the feeling is just too awesome!

i managed to personalize my header!!!!! wheeeee XD

it has the very own feeling of myself.... so darn happy!!!

i waited for this chance to have the header because i wasn't that pro last time and i simply clicked on something and my blog went haywire and all these while i'm only changing the html codes which sucked big time!!!


can see the difference between the new and old blog? the new one has layout and the old one has templates...the layout button is for lazy people to edit their html codes like me (supposed to be) but i smartly clicked something and it became templates...so i have to be hardworking to code myself... =.=

so welcome to my new layout and bye bye autumn...

no more golden leaves...no more orange feel...cz is all white outside

i'm freezing like the snowman!!!

snowfight tomorrow!!!!!!!!! c ya =)

under construction
