My first attempt on….

Mousse :D. It was supposed to be a yoghurt – mango mousse. Well, I kinda managed to overwhip the top part the first time, so I had to redo it, but I decided to use strawberry instead. I’m glad I used strawberry, because the canned mango didn’t taste good. I’m going to make another mango mousse when it’s mango season. I’m sure it’ll taste much better than the canned one =.=.

So how did it turn out? I liked the yoghurt base, but was a little disappointed with the strawberry top. It was too creamy for my taste. It’s not really suprising considering the fact that I had to use whipped cream in it, but I didn’t think so much about it when chose the recipe. Next time I’ll just have to make sure to find a recipe that’s less creamy 😛 Didn’t turn out that bad,at least it’s edible and the bottom was good 😀


Cooking

Cooking is one of my weak points. Although I’m still not very good at it, I’m better than when I first came to Trondheim. Well, I basically had to learn how to cook, otherwise I woudn’t have anything to eat. Since most of the time I cook for myself, I don’t like trying out difficult recipes or trying out things that requires a lot of ingredients and time. I disliked cooking before and just liked to eat. I still like to eat instead of cooking right now, but unlike before, I think cooking can be fun, especially if you do it with family or friends.

This is what I made today, I sort of followed was inspired with this recipe.

Chicken GgoChi

I actually made something similar last week, the main thing about the recipe is just the sauce, but it’s almost like teriyaki sauce, or maybe it is teriyaki :S (was to hungry to take a picture, I just ate everything up :P). Anyway, today I made it with with chicken clubs instead.


Silence

After two hours of lecture in the morning, I had two hours free. Instead of reading in the library, I went to Rema 1000 to buy ingredients for my dinner. While I was in the store, I received a message from SIT bolig that they were going to shut down the electricity  for one hour starting at 11 a.m. The clock was around 10.25 when I saw the message, which meant I had around 30 minutes to finish shopping, head home and cook some food. I was hungry, and I had to use the oven.  Fortunately, I made it, I even had 5 minutes of spare time until they shut the electricity.

It was kinda freaky when there was no electricity in the house. The house was sooooo silent. I mean, when there’s nobody around I feel like it’s quiet, however the refrigerator and other things still make some noise. Now on the other hand, it was dead silent. Kinda like an abandoned/haunted house. Nobody was home too, so it was a little scary. But I left like 5 minutes after the electricity was gone, because I planned on reading a little before the next lecture though.

Picture for the day: I really hate the weather here now. It’s like a combination of snow and rain …ugh. (bad quality because it was taken with my phone. Was too lazy to bring out my camera to take one picture XD)

 


Ebay …

Or Evil Bay as Bao calls it, and I must say I agree. It’s a pretty scary site. Once I’m there, it’s difficult to get out. I always end up spending hours there searching for a lot of stuff that I…..umh, don’t need. But it’s kind of fun though XD

Anyway, Bao do you remember the bun sponge thing you showed me? I ordered it when you gave me the site. I still haven’t received it, and it’s been over a month!! I’m reconsidering buying it again from someone else because I really want to try it TT_TT aah what to do?


S.A.D

One hour ’til Single Awareness Day is here! Have a happy moping day single people!


BWoW: HK airplanes?

I’m not what you could call a hardcore Hello Kitty fan. Heck, I’m not even a fan but seeing this Hello Kitty themed airplane, I might as well be converted! Okay not entirely but you must admit that this is kind of really awesome! :O Just take a look at the in-flight meals and you’ll know why!

Business class meal (click on the picture to see more)

And who’ll ever expect to actually eat ice cream on flights? On Eva Air you can obviously!

After a few searches I found out that these airplanes already debuted back in 2005 on flights to Japanese destinations! It retired in 2009 and finally made it comeback last year, and to think that I never knew about this… :O and well I don’t know about you but I would like to try this at least once in my lifetime 😛

PS. I changed my mind about Bao’s Wide Web (BWW), it should be BWoW, Bao’s Web of Wonders! HAHAHAHAH! XD


Brrr …It’s cold!

It’s getting colder and colder every day. Yesterday snow even fell. The snow was really light, like powder, and it sparkled as it was reflecting light from the surroundings. It was really pretty. Too bad it did not sparkle today. I brought my camera with me to take some pictures after going to the mass. I died after taking 4 shots or something. It was way too cold. I could not hold the camera anymore so I just headed home.

I apologize for not posting for a while. I’ve been really busy with school. I have like 7 assignments to hand in every week. In addition I also have to pass different tests in order to qualify for the exam. So all I do nowadays is basically to attend lectures, eat, study, eat, study, eat some more, sleep, wake up, eat and attend new lectures … you get the picture.

For the time being, here’s two of the shots I managed to take today. Hopefully I’ll be able to take more when it’s warmer 😀

 

 

 

 

 


I like sleep and food

Nothing is more confusing to the people around you when you declare “I’m going to sleep” and then proceed to grab a new bag of snacks and start eating. nomnomnom! Is it worth it though? Sacrificing sleep for snacks/food? I guess, I’ll find out when I have to wake up in a few hours. My gut is telling me that it’s not worth it though, hahahah!

Now, this is something I haven’t eaten in a while and truth be told is probably worth sacrificing sleep for 😛


BWW: Vietnamese net idols?

What is wrong with me? I stumbled over another weird thing again this week. This time it’s a thread on Soompi called Vietnamese net idols =_= basically something ala Vietnamese ulzzang… Actually in Vietnam, they’re called hot girls and hot boys… because they’re hot topics? I don’t know, it’s weird…  Recently there’s been a hot uhm… people(?) boom in Vietnam and with that I mean they’re seriously taking over. Like starring in dramas, singing and modeling, and I find the quality of their acting and singing voice quite unsettling while their modeling is so-so (they do have a pretty face after all). Well, fact is I’ve got no idea what their talent is, because I can’t see it. Is their talent their pretty feature or something? Because then I’m disappointed with this world…

PS. I think I should make this my hobby or something, you know like finding things on the web I find somewhat weird or fun and share it here? Like Bao’s Wide Web (BWW) or something? (I spend a lot of time stalking surfing around anyways so why not, right?)
Heh. 


I think I have …

I think I have issues with my free time… I found a whole bag of 10 cents (Norwegian) in our drawer and then I ended up on Google trying to figure out if it’s still possible to turn them in. Turned out they went out of circulation in 1992(!) and the last year for turning them in were in 2003. I was staring at them and thought “oh crap, they’re even older than me!”. Anyways point is; while Googlin’ I somehow stumbled upon a magic forum(?). You know the kind that have topics about black cats, Friday the 13th, tarot cards and so on and so forth? Yeah, well I started to hang around and read random topics… I’ve got no idea why but maybe it’s a sign that I stumbled upon it? :O

Oh heck, I’m getting brainwashed soon, not that I’m not brainwashed beforehand. Sometimes I think I’m psychic. Truth is out, I’m really losing my mind…
