Hair Harakiri

2007-10-15T20:05:00.000+10:00

After months of being totally stingy, I finally cut my hair. It was getting too long and a pain to wash/tie up(on account of being too heavy!) This Before-After picture is for Vijay who will kill me (or sue me? I cant remember) if I didnt do otherwise.The korean hairdresser goes, "your hair is very straight!" Thinking it would make it easier to cut, I said "thats a good thing right?" She said, "

Good Food Month Noodle Markets

2007-10-12T15:53:00.000+10:00

The annual Sydney Good Food Month rolls around again, with their famous noodle markets out for business for 2 weeks. The stooges and I havent got together for ages so we decided to have dinner at the noodle markets at Hyde Park. It was massive! There was heaps of stalls selling a variety of asian foodstuffs (not just noodles). Thai, Malaysian, Fusion, Japanese, Himalayan... all were there. Heaps

Mang and I got to talking about soy one day and we were going to do this experiment at Mando after church last Sunday but I forgot to bring the English Soy (ES). So I just bought some Chinese Soy (CS) at Miracle Grocery Store (hehe) and conducted the experiment on my own.I first wanted to see what the overall difference was in terms of taste and texture, so I drank it and observed its opacity etc

One day I was talking to some of my Furc friends and the food object "Peanut Butter & Celery" came up. Often recieved as a lunchbox snack, it has become abit of a common snack item for them. Most of these Furc friends are american, but I believe there were aussies who agreed that PB & C were common and tasty. Of course, being the foodie that I am, I just had to try it out!I got myself some celery

So I had a chat with iGod today. He's not all that he's cracked up to be. I doubt the person who made this was a Christian. Either that or he was more interested in getting this in than being theologically sound. It's highly entertaining though :) Sorry the picture is bad.

Knowledge

2007-07-28T16:41:00.001+10:00

I've always been someone who treasured knowledge. I like knowing things. I like reading about things and retaining that knowledge. This usually only for things that interested me, however. Sometimes I would force myself to read something I didnt like, but I never could retain knowledge for those topics so I found that to be a futile sport.I was very happy with this arrangement and enjoyed

I was talking to Mandaliet about song lyrics and stuff. About how I place a high importance on lyrics cos I reckon alot of songs sound similiar otherwise, and too few songs would stand out. He reckons he chooses based on music over lyrics cos even in English, alot of lyrics dont make sense anyway. He then mentioned he drew a comic about it once. I think the comic is funny cos its SO TRUE. Those

I was scribbling in my diary last night and had a sudden revelation about achievements and the motives behind it. Pete mentioned in his sermon yesterday that life is not meaningless, that its full of meaning because of what Jesus has done for us. And that our labor now is not in vain because we have a glorious hope that is true and unfading.With that thought and the pressure to find work swirling

This is the logo for the NERV company in Evangelion. I wonder if any of you have ever had a close look at it, and noticed what it says. It says," God's in his heaven, All's right with the world".The company motto seems to be implying that as long as God minds His own business, then everything will be fine. I can see why some people think that. Some people see God as this bored, reclining

I was a little frustrated, a little bored and had little cash on me today. So I decided to use the most abundant resource in my house: flour. I don't usually have flour in my house but this was leftover from the shortbread cookies I made for christmas. After a little research on the net, I decided to make pizzas. And so this is the result: baked fresh from scratch. I even made the base myself. At

I was in Malaysia and found a new product: honey stars...only in berry flavour! Honey stars is one of the food items on my "must-eat list" when I go home so I was quite surprised to see this noob on the product shelf. My initial reaction was delight. And then scepticism. So I reached out for my usual box of honey stars, hugged it and brought it back to Sydney with me. Its still unopened. Maybe

Dippy Eggs

I don't think I ever really understood the concept of egg cups. Maybe because all I have been exposed to are half-boiled eggs, where the whole egg is still runny and you eat it with soya sauce + white pepper; or hard-boiled eggs where the whole egg is solid. Both are difficult to eat with an egg cup.One day someone asks, "say how long do you boil Dippy Eggs for?" I looked at him blankly (like I

Then some lettuce is sprinkled over the combination, topped off with a dollop of sweet chilli.This dish is better than popiah because its shell is deep fried so you have that crunchiness with the delectable popiah

But we can learn from science, for all truth is God's truth. Psalm 19, for example, indicates that there are two forms of God's revelation: the 'book' of nature is God's general

I think it was the desire to not struggle anymore, to finally be with God, to long for Heaven.At the back of my mind, I'd always remember the famous Phillipians 1:21 quote, "To live is Christ, to die is gain" by Paul. I had no problem agreeing that to die is definately to gain. But it

Unwell

2006-06-28T12:13:00.000+10:00

Sigh...unwell and kept home unwillingly by my rioting gut. Might as well update my blog and get my creative juices flowing before I even attempt at starting my thesis.... how I dread it. It churns my insides even more than its already churning now...Y'know, I have a very opinionated friend who says blogging is like prostitution. This was awhile ago and sure, I see this friend's point on revealing

They say you should never name things you dont intend to keep. Makes you attached. I guess that only works if you can actually recognise and remember the objects of entitlement. I sometimes name my mice but theres hardly any danger because i quickly forget which is which. This is because I name them based on their personalities.Henry - for no reason, all the mice I sacrifice are named Henry. It

Winter is here and its getting abit dry. I've got leg dandruff :/ Yes yes I do moisturise, although sometimes I skip it cos I'm like late for uni or whatever other activity I'm late for. But yeh far out...maybe I should just shower with Head and Shoulders. After all, I do shower with Clairol Herbal Essence.....just cos it froths well and it smells so nice! I mean, just cos it says Shampoo

One of my more favourite interests which I have picked up in AUstralia is cooking. I really, really enjoy cooking. My family wouldnt let me near a stove when I was younger and never really got to cook much. First time I used an oven was at a friend's house, I was around 14. Second time I ever used one was here, in Australia. Followed by numerous other oven obsessive dishes. I mean, how easy is it

A mouse ran away the other day and we only found her something like 3-4 days later. She was in a humane mouse trap but by then, she was considerably stressed and weak from starvation and dehydration. We tried to revive her with glucose and saline shots, but to no avail. She passed on the next day, cold and grey. She shouldn't have run away in the first place. It did not benefit neither her nor

Oh gaze of Love so melt my pride that I may in Your house but kneel and in my brokeness to cry spring worship unto Thee Jars Of Clay :: Hymn I sometimes get so sick of being incompetent. Of being mediocre and nominal and lukewarm. I spend all my energy on something that isn't even worth anything, I look upon envy at people who give up so much for what is right, my insides wring with guilt

Oh I see . . .It was never intellectual debates between truly patriotic and open minded people about the corruption of power. It was a bunch of superficial hackers who wanted to stir up abit of political hatred and enjoy watching educated fools with too much time on their hands make airy comments on the stupor of those who don't see as they see or think as they think. What with their empty vows

Stuck in Lab

Forgot to add Ethidium bromide to the gel again today, so I'm stuck in lab waiting for the silly gel to destain. Sigh. I'm beginning to wonder if it would've been easier just making a new gel. I think I will learn from this ordeal and make a new gel next time.Been reading "Flowers for Algernon". About a boy with IQ of 70 who undergoes surgery and gets IQ of 185 or something. Its quite a sad

Church today was, as usual, thoroughly enjoyable. Maybe slightly more enjoyable than usual due to the spag bol (with garlic bread!) we got for church dinner. MmmMMm. It was truly tasty.So far the talks on the passion narrative at church has been really eye opening. Pete's an amazing speaker. I love how he manages to sneak in at least one new fact in your everyday bible sermons. Especially

I try hard to be more efficient but its not easy. I was so dead by the end of the week. I have this theory, however, that if you keep doing it for a long time, it will eventually become habit and you get used to

This is the second mouse litter we got. Aren't they adorable? We checked on them today and their eyes were open and they were sauntering hesitantly around the cage. They're so cute!! They just get cuter and cuter and cuter and then one day they just...grow up and arent as cute anymore.... and then they start eating a 45% fat diet and get really obese and then they become really cute again.

God has been teaching me to let go of my dreams and plans. Indeed, man plans but God decides and I guess I get so caught up in how things could potentially turn out that I begin to "love" the world and make some really bad choices.Anyway, lesson once learnt, God was really gracious in granting me some things that I had really wanted. Nothing like a little nudge by Him to keep you walking in the

1. I attended a 2-day animal handling course this week. It contained legalities and philosophy, justification and propoganda, paradoxes and controversy. The only thing that suprised me was the delicious morning tea. The only thing that will stick with me for life is the fact that every issue always has two sides to the coin.2. We recieved 2 litters of mouse pups this week. 8 in one litter and 11

I know in the world of photoshoppery pictures dont as much credibility as it used to but at least you know that it really happened.Today was another day where I regretted not bringing my camera with me.
