Cam whores, don't forget to have fun with their 'window speech bubbles'. Check what the bubble 'expresses', then do your best facial expression to reflect the best possible captions! One example shown below:

Fill in the rest. Who knows there's a giveaway to the best creative caption to this? ;)


While Thursday is usually K-Pop dance night with CLAP YO HANDS, Friday's special for Kimchi making!


Yes that first snap looks icky. But the second is much bloodier bettah, just as I loike it. Turns out that it's not hard at all when making kimchi, it's the TIME and the sauce that needs more attention. Well, they already prepared and made a batch of sauce, so all I did was to rub on the pre-salted cabbages. As easy as that!
One remark I'll always remember: "Swipe all the sauce with the leftover leaf, with the cabbage, your hands in the plastic. Swipe it off with this little leaf I give extra to you. Make sure bowl is clean, no sauce left, don't waste"

There's something with about kimchi making with the garlic chilli sauce. Hmmmm.  
and the highlight,


JYJ MEDIA COVERAGE & SHOWCASE IN SINGAPORE.






As Micky says, "Always keep the faith"


*NOTE: "This week in pictures" image is absolutely apt for these posts I'll be doing now as I don't have time to do full-length rants in a while till then! The image is courtesy from Nubby Twiglet, a long lost love which I re-digged her blog from my bloglovin' stream! I'll be making my own logo during classes but so you know, she's my inspiration! Will pop by more often. She mixes fashion/typography/graphics as one - exactly what I should be doing/learning/future thing/whatever!


Now Listening:  Ayyy Girl - JYJ. (post concert syndrome)I didn't have their tracks before the concert!

Ramyun.

Since last Friday, without a trace of an ion nor a negative cell warning from my body, I had severe cough, so agonizing that I thought I really had the H1N1 virus (which I've been joking around instead of having H1N1 I had the 2NE1 virus, in which I do still have it, still on 'Fire' and not 'Let's Party' where I thought it's not as hype as 'Fire' sadly. But still love them!) with my sudden body chills; my roommate who claims to sleep withOUT the Air Con and when I do see her in the morning when I wake up and she's still in slumber, with her BLANKET and extra JACKET she wore, it's already 25 degrees plus never below but still, I'm dumbstrucked.
(wow that was one sentence)
It's amazing someone could live in the Singapore heat, or the tropical heat without the AC and still use covers and jacket.

Back to the real sicky story, my life-throbbing cough was just unbearable, because whenever I cough the back of my head would hurt as well, I don't know but it just hurts along with the pressure as well. And it's the cough with those yellow extras that shows I'm sick and then my nose came running some more after the next two days.

Home bound since body feels sluggish and I didn't have much power to move around, the only thing I could rely to keep myself alive was instant food. For instance, this:


Ramyun! (or Ramen but this is a Korean kind)
With no MSG! (An absolute good thing)

The noodles are thick and quishy and really big in portion (however it's like 500+ cal for each packet -,-;;; kowaii)

And in Singapore, I live in Prinsep St. and I would buy all my Korean food needs here in a Korean supermarket... which is less than a 5 minute walk away! How convinient!


It's called Shine Korea, they have all these old almost a decade year olds posters of the old senior rising stars which I recognize. It's located in Burlington Square's first floor. And whatever you buy they'll always give little goodies or big goodies depending on how big or the amount you buy! And the prices are much cheaper than in supermarkets for the same products! So always should go to specialized store reknown for their products. A smart shopper knows that! ;)

But then it was in my stock but my appetite never came, my stomach's enzyme I think has covered it or whatever it was, I didn't feel hungry at all for a few days which made me sweat like crazy for less than a hundred meter walk since there's no sodium intake and all...

Then it reminded me of my old love, Goong manhwa! Here's the page I LOLed like crazy and it is funny and also still at the same topic, noodles :P


Chapter 14 of Goong, here for the chapter!

My noodles aren't exactly 'Shin' brand, since I like these noodles for its chewy and thick type of noodles but well, noodles are noodles!

That's for MY sad grotesque weekend. I forced myself to wake up early today to catch the church and asked one of the fathers to pray for me. Like what all my feelings are after church I would feel better. Then the next day I have to wake up not-too-early for the first day of school! Gya!
