Home made cooking

Today I attempted to make curry chicken!..it was a bit hard since I had 2 get everything ready in my room before bringing it out 2 the kitchen...things like blending the onions,garlic n ginger..n also bancuh the curry paste n stuff...but I managed, even though I had a few difficulties coz I had 2 come in my room once in a while 2 check the instructions my mom gave me thru email...hehe ;p juz so I got things rite...once its done, rase sket...sedappppp! =) nasib baik! hahaha...coz I tried making sambal tumis b4 n it was all messed up...the chilli was too PEDASSSSSS....I thought i did sumtin wrong, was trying everytin 2 fix it..but then asked mom bout it n she said i shud juz put more onions while making the paste coz the chilli I bought were obviously chilli padi...how the hell shud I knw! I did realise that it looked a bit smaller than usual, but that was the biggest that they had. So my sambal mission still blum kesampaian..will get 2 that soon tho...

Les Misérables!

Last week, a couple of my frens n I went to see a musical theatre. It was the classic Les Misérables! It is based on a novel by French author Victor Hugo and is widely considered as one of the greatest novels of the 19th century. It was my 1st theatre here in London. We sat on the upper tier and it was quite close 2 the stage. We had 2 kinda leaned 4ward 2 see the stage as it was wayyyy down below.

I can definitely say it was AWESOME! A great experience. Watching those people, I was so amazed at how talented they are! They were singing very casually as if it came naturally but what came out of it was more than impressive! They were such professionals, acting and singing convincingly. So much drama..so much emotion. I loved it! And what was even more impressive was there were two child performers in the play and they were surprisingly as talented as the grown up performers. Their voices..all of them..........I was jealous! oh how I would kill to be able to sing like that~ There was this one time when 1 of the gurls were singing a solo, it caught my attention. I knew that song! but fr where I couldnt remember....after a while, it hit me.. it was the same song Susan Boyle sang when she 1st auditioned for X-factor! hehehehehehe..n nw the song is stuck in my head! ;p "I dreamed a dream in time gone by..When hope was high..And life worth living..."

Next stop! Phantom of the Opera! Will let u knw hw it goes~
