Things to be glad about in the intervening weeks:
FRIENDS

yes, friends hahaha! Amazingly, despite my usual shitty sense of communication with friends, I still have plenty of those. I am glad

THE ABILITY TO COOK FOOD!

I know some of you have been watching my twitter slowly being flooded with some form of food or another. Most of which are of my own doing ^_^ I can only say, practice makes everything better!

I have been busy

Mostly with learning alot of things, hobbies to keep the mind busy, friends to keep everything else busier. I am happy, and that’s also quite important I guess. One of the most interesting thing I did was to run up to Sydney to surprise a friend – someone I haven’t really met before really. It was a good trip, and our online personas are as crazy as our offline personas, if not more When I first went up though, the intention to was to drive her lonliness away. Nevertheless, our love for food kind of went a little overboard ^_^v I am still feeling the ramifications of that weekend!

The other interesting thing that has happened is… me playing alot less games. oh yes, I am still playing facebook games. those are not as life intensive as WoW or Lineage 2 ever was though – about 20 minutes a day, if that. instead, I have thrown myself into learning a whole bunch of things. sewing, cooking, reading – it’s incredibly hilarious and breath taking at times.

What should I attribute all that to? frankly, I don’t know. I think, firstly, it started with me working where I am working, and meeting the people that I did. Then, there was my kindle and the chancing upon the Kindleboards which led to a whole bunch of other things I can’t even describe.

The whole whirlstorm of cooking was further kicked up a notch when I bought my new rice cooker while in Sydney for the visit!

I was intending to get one of those nice Zojirushi Rice Cookers mentioned on the Kindleboards, or even something else I could have gotten cheaper from Singapore. the Problem that dad mentioned was warranty. What if something happens, what if this and that. Plus the socket issue… I decided that yeah, I should just get a rice cooker locally.

I haven’t regretted the decision one bit. Tiger is a competitor to Zojirushi in Japan anyways, and they can’t possibly be that much different.

The point is, the rice is cooked PERFECT EVERY SINGLE TIME. there’s nothing much I need to do, as per rice cookers. wash, fill it up with water up to the indicated lines… wait. Infact, the rice is sssoooo good, I just make sushi rice everyday because it’s just so perfect and makes it easier to… vinegar up.

which just makes me want to cook everything else to go with the rice ^_^ so far, it’s been good… really good. ok, enough food talk. <3
