PP was thinking of blogging back backforward for the Perth trip.. will see how la.. got to resize those pictures PP took.. juz 6 days and PP took over a thousand photos.. Good thing HH boguht her a 4GB memory card..
PP was back to work on Fri afternoon.. She took am leave as she knew that she only landed at night.. true enuff.. plane was delayed.. initial take off was 1630hrs but we din board the plance till 1630hrs.. haiz.. plane departed Perth around 1710hrs & grounded in Sin Jia Po around 2100hrs.. so tired.. as usual.. PP left her family at the duty-free & went to "identify" the suitcases.. hehe!! not bad.. PP's identifying skills still working.. she correctly identified the 7 luggages & loaded them on the trolleys before everyone was done with duty-free shopping.. HH was impressed.. hehe!! he din know his wife so li hai.. whahaha!! anyway, it's our 1st really overseas trip.. Malaysia dun count.. PP 1st time sleeping in sleeping bag.. Argh!! din take picture of PP in sleeping bag!! wasted!! may not have the chance to sleep in sleeping bag le!! =(
Actually PP dunno wat she blogging.. bits & pieces here & there.. ok ok.. PP skipped her 1st class on 19th Mar & went for lessons on 21st & 22nd Mar.. haiz.. so sian.. at least it's Alistair's class.. not so boring.. Alistair Laoshi very li hai to keep his class fun & light.. not fun la.. he can make dry topics so not dry la.. you got wat i mean? PP's final yr 1st semester.. nervous & dunno if she can make it anot.. haiz..
After class on Sat (21st Mar), PP went Compass Point to meet HH for dinner shopping.. HH gonna cook cabonara for PP.. hehe!! Die la.. PP got used to the speed in Perth.. she has been speeding back in S'pore.. she is going 100 to 110 on expressway.. poor gear box.. HH juz changed it less than 6 mths.. Opps... it's really fun riding again after not riding for a week..
as usual.. PP got attracted by the sausages on offer in Cold Storage & decided to buy them & try.. hehe!! they are extra lean original pork sausages & cheese pork or pork cheese sausages.. see how well they turned out.. they taste great too!! PP prefers the original one.. PP can't remember the brand.. the remaining sausages are left in HH's fridge.. hehe!!
Ingredients for cabonara pasta:
- Spaghetti
- Romano cheese (HH grated it himself)
- Shitake mushroom (PP sliced them so unevenly.. hehe!!) (actually any mushroom also can.. PP like shitake so HH boguht shitake.. hehe!)
- onion (PP chopped one & "cried")
- thickened cream
- bacon bits (we bought ready made bits but not nice leh, so better get pieces one & cut into bits yourself)
Stir fried onion till golden brown then throw in the bacon bits.. after pao xiang the bacon (the bacon start to brown & smell cooked), throw in the sliced shitake mushrooms.. almost cooked then pour in the thickened cream sauce.. hehe!! PP dunno the brand.. you can ask HH.. he also anyhow take from shelf & try one ba. whahaha!! soak the "liao" (ingredients).. make sure all coated with sauce then put in the cooked spaghetti.. Stir & mix well.. cannot remember need to bring the mixture to boil anot.. hehe!!
When it is almost done, you off the fire & pour the beatened eggs in..
*Impt: cannot cook pasta in the sauce ar.. wait the ingredients overcooked den not nice liao.. Also, not to add the egg when the fire is still on.. HH explained that this is becos the egg is not supposed to be fully cooked.. machiam half done like tat la..*
Tada~ final product.. actually we overcooked.. think can serve 3-4 persons ba.. but we finished it.. whahahaha!! it'll be another mth before HH & PP wanna eat cabonara again.. muahahahahaha!!
After dinner, HH & PP went to ah gim's house in Sembawang to help Beebee with her science project.. PP asked to ride HH's bike.. hehe!! so fun to overtake HH with ease!! whahaha!! his bike faster ma.. we sort of race each other.. really fun!! of cos, HH always keep PP in tune with sanity.. whahaha!! cannot always ride like that.. PP also know her limits.. if she goes overboard, she will know the consequences.. =I

Thurs 5 Mar 09
Forgot to include this movie which PP watched with Ling & BiL on Thurs after visiting Clover.. Clover is "longer" now.. Babies grow fast man.. She can sleep across her cot.. Her poo poo also very chou (smelly)!!
Jamal Malik (Dev Patel) is a street kid (or "slumdog") who has landed an appearance on India's version of the hit TV game show WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE? Jamal exceeds expectations on the show, and the producers alert the police after they become suspicious of his methods.
The young contestant is subsequently arrested and is interrogated at the hands of a nameless police inspector (played by Bollywood star Irfan Khan). As the interrogation proceeds, Boyle tells Jamal's story through harrowing flashbacks that both show the terrible poverty of Mumbai and help explain how he knew the answers to the MILLIONAIRE questions.Slumdog Millionaire is a tightly woven story that has been expertly edited into shape. The contrast between Jamal's upbringing and his chance of escaping it on the show are adeptly juxtaposed. Mumbai is portrayed as a place of terrifying poverty and unforgettable brutality, and Jamal and his brother get into a never-ending succession of challenging situations.
But the way Boyle ties together Jamal's life experiences with his answers on the show is quite brilliant, and the film really does run the full gamut of emotions as we see him growing up, falling in love, coming close to death, and teetering on the brink of escaping from his terrible predicament.
The film belongs to Boyle's cast, who are mostly unknown outside of India. Patel, in particular, gives a startlingly mature performance that audiences are likely to remember long after the credits role on this affecting feature. ”
