Finally got pictures from the Chinese New Year dinner I had with the Malaysians....

Everything mostly made by Rosie..

Went Skiing up in the mountains on saturday.. was nervous to start with haha.. but had good fun... took a 2 hour lesson with a very eccentric person haha... and got a good hour to see what we had learnt for ourselves.. that was the best part... going down the slopes ourselves.. myself for that matter haha.. went so fast! gosh.. the view from the top was breath-taking when the skies cleared for that brief 5 seconds...

That's the view from the bottom and the train that took us all the way up...


oh and the instructor kept calling me Roxy cos thats what it said on my jacket.. how annoying.. kept saying no its Leslie... okay Roxy.. god...

See that thing that pulls u all the way back up again.. haha that was so much fun though.. u just kiap it between ur legs and get dragged along all the way up and at the top u let go and cause u are still in ur skis u conitnue moving haha.. nearly fell each time... NEARLY....

But boy was it cold up there, the wind in ur face.. gosh my ear muffs only kept my ears warm.. need nose and cheek warmers too haha...

By the time we got back, I was exhausted... and today I am covered in bruises and am aching all over. haha... land sports - done, snow sports - done.. next up will be water sports ???maybe?? =)

Dont think Chubs will be too pleased though, would u? =p

okok maybe I'll try golf when I am back.. MAYBE......

So glad all the Ballies have someone special to spend vday with this year....

Valentine's day is a day to celebrate being loved by someone.. I agree with Chubs... celebrating it with someone u love and for being loved.....

Envy everyone who get to spend every minute with their special someone... getting spoiled on this day... awww reading all the surprises, the flowers, the special time.. just wish I was a million miles from home.... but 3 months will pass quickly.. *I pray* hee....

Nothing much happened today though.. had to struggle out of bed to go for psychology today.. had to sit and watch 69 children advertisments for some lab report we got to do.. yawnz... brought back childhood memories though haha.. My Little Pony.. Ninja Turtle toys... Polly Pocket.. haha.. Quality....

Had a good talk with Chubs later in the day which is always good... Its such a beautiful day today.. feels like summer... the sun is out.. ppl in shorts and skirts.. cant believe that its actually still winter!! haha.... Global warming.. damnz.....

Chinese New Year is just round the corner too.. got invited to some dinner on Sat with Singaporeans studying at my uni and Glasgow uni so that'll be interesting haha.. =)

Well I guess thats it for now...

It has been a really slow week.. was in for only 3 days.. had 2 very restless day... yawnz....

Spent the day running about getting stuff to make sushi !! am so craving for sushi tei.. argh... it has been toooooo long!!! so decided to make it myself.....

Was first at Chung Ying, which sold the seaweed but not the rice, so bought some powder thingy that u add to the rice to make it taste like sushi rice... Went to Tesco after.. but they only had salmon and cucumber.. and I wanted avocado as well which they didn have.... soooo..... went over to Sainsburry's to get avocado haha... oh and went into Poundland on the way to get containers.. gosh was knackered by the time I got home....

But making sushi has always been theraputic haha... calms the soul hee.....

I've got enough to last me a few days haha.. might bring in some on monday to see how my scottish friends react to them haha... (=

Ohh while I was at Chung Ying... I stumbled across TAU HUAY!!!! I miss going to the one at Short Street with Chubs in the middle of the night :( been craving for tau huay for like forever.... Bought 2 bowls for dinner tonight and breakfast tmr hee... whee~~~

Tina: I know u will think it is mozzarella haha but its NOT... its beancurd...

Obviously it didn taste as good as Short's Street's Tau Huay but its still TAU HUAY!! haha... oh well.. moment of excitment... hee...

The old flatmates and I have realised that we seem to have disappearing cups and mugs... We use to have so many cups and mugs but today we didn have any left!! none drying beside the sink, none in the cupboards... GONE.. DISAPPEARED.. poor Sophie, wanted to have a cup of tea ended up having a bowl of tea instead haha....

Oh well... Nothing exciting has been happening for me to update... been at uni... gym as usual... nothing exciting though haha... hopefully more will happen next week...

Been misssing home terribly... and renovations are nearly done... not quite but nearly haha.. cant wait to see what's it like..
