Monash Annual Ball 2012

The most anticipated event that I wished to participate with my group of dears

:) 

The night where all are dressed up and look pretty pretty

and we can take as much picture as we like

But well, it did not really turned out as expected

It was tiring

Hairdo was fun

Sitting at salon and being pampered

Our nails

The girl

The other girl

Us done with hair! :)

My curls looks so ugly the moment I'm done with it

but after that it turns into natural loose curls which I love so much

(Now to cut short or to leave long...)

But make up was tedious

troublesome and feels not like myself (especially with fake lashes)

but then girls still wanna be pretty pretty for the night right? 

hehe

Just hate my fake lashes and the tedious part of removing makeup after the ball

How I wish I can just sleep straight away after that 

as I was tired with the heels (Gosh my legs)

and the preparations 

But it was worth it with the girls

:)

Dress!

Preparation in PK house

A more natural look before the lashes

My lovely dears

Pretty darling and I

AhXin, PK and me

Ray and me

*love*

with Mr Monash last year, Joo Ztat

Our table :)

 We stayed over at PK's house that night

and until our Genting trip

PK and WY in PK's room

while Darl and me in another room

and so our happy happy sleepover

with many first times

(shhhh.. too private to be said)

Overall, the food was soso

but everything was great

To have the company of the lovely ladies

I LOVE YOU

:)

养成需要你的习惯了.

怎么办？

那麼多相遇 - 懂得讓我微笑的人

I never knew one could be so patient with kids and teens while I start giving up hope on some of them

I never knew one can have such plans for future while I was still living in my dreams

I never knew one can be so responsible while I try to avoid it

I never knew one can be so kind even when he is tired

I learn to be a better me

Even though there are some imperfections yet it does make a difference

想念我们之间的默契

和让我我微笑的你

Apple Juice Lab

Had our last lab of the semester - The Apple Juice Extraction Lab

Sounds easy right? Just peel the apples and dump them into a juicer

Of course not that simple! 

We gotta filter and pasteurized it just like any other commercial apple juice we see out in the market

One added with ascorbic acid and one without ascorbic acid

See the difference before and after boiling? 

The icky yucky top

Clear apple juice after filter and boiling

This lab marks the end of Food Processing Lab 

The one and only lab for this semester

:)

Hope we will have more fun next semester making jams, kimchi and other stuff

:)

Daily happenings

Some random conversations that makes me smileeee and laugh

Nugget lab

The best part of FST3840 Food Processing is the awesome nugget lab

where we can make our own nugget from scratch! 

 And sensory evaluation too!

Aahh, the last eating lab was way back in year 1 for FST 1800 Introduction to Food Science

where we get to make different types of candy and also cakes

I *loveeeeeeee* studying food science

for the yummy lab sessions

For this experiment, we were to see the difference between different batter used in coating the nuggets. There are wheat flour, rice flour, corn flour and sago flour.

Wanna guess which one taste the best?

Hmmmmmm

Firstly is the mincing of chicken breast meat, then mixed with salt

Then:

Shaping

Coating with sago flour

Coating

Arrange (Notice how thin the batter was coated onto the meat? :( the batter was thin)

I am the free one that was busy with the camera

This was the wheat flour ones

See how nicely it was thickly coated? Like tempura!

Fry Fry Fry~

TA DA~! This was our product. Looks not bad. Sago flour

Wheat flour

Corn flour (Keropok lekor look-a-like)

Rice flour

And so the best moment is of course when we get to taste our own product and other group's product.

As each group was allocated to use different flour, we gotta evaluate on how it taste like and so on.

The best flour used to make nugget is

....

....

Rice flour! Followed by wheat flour, corn flour and lastly rice flour.

Rice flour coating makes it taste more like tempura chicken pieces instead of nugget

:)

Wonderful lab moments with the beloved friends

Next is apple juice lab!

:) 

I AM CLINGY!

Seems that Ting is kinda active in blogging after reducing her fb time

hahahaha

and so I found something interesting in her blog:

I found that I am kinda clingy too

Good or bad?

Hmmm...

7 SIGNS THAT YOU’RE A CLINGY FRIEND

1. You ALWAYS need a friend with you.
YEESS!

2. You are always the one to initiate get togethers.
Err.. not really. Only to Ting and Peggy so far..

3. You can’t spend a day without calling or texting your friend.
hehe yeah

4. You find yourself saying yes to everything your friends say.
I used to. but now I like to go opposite of what they say. hahahahaha

5. You invite yourself to your friends’ activities – even personal ones.
Nope. I like being at home

6. You need to know what your friends are up to every single day.
Some yes. Like Ting said we like to ask each other what we are doing and every day the answer remains the same yet we still asked each other. 

7. You are constantly worried that your friends are not including you in their plans.
 I guess so..? :) But sometimes I rather stay home. and sleep. hehe
