okay. i have decided to stay out of a job for good. =). my mother sorta helped convince me cause she's teaching me how to cook now! and i no longer have a reason to do nothing for the whole day. i have found my reason for existence. muahaha.
oh and by the way. the mosquitoes are back. i KNEW they weren't gone for good. for once i wanted to be wrong. usually you'd want to be right right? haha. why couldn't they just prove me wrong. ohwells. you know whats the problem with mosquitoes infesting my room. its when i sleep. they just have a feast on my defenseless legs. wonderful. and so now i have to slep with the blanket on. which just makes me super warm. and i have to turn on the fan to a higher speed. higher speeds equal more power usage. which leads eventually to global warming. so i propose to eradicate mosquitoes to reduce the effect of global warming(when they accept this proposal we would be living on mars). blah. tonight i shall do battle with them once again! to war!!!
hm oh yeah. cooking. so today i fried eggs. and i keep being reminded by everyone that everyone can fry eggs too. but i like eggs. i mean they're extremely versatile. haha. you can have hard boiled ones. soft boiled ones. sunny side ups. omelette with almost anything you can think of. yeah man. so give it a rest and stop criticizing my eggs. haha. hm.
well let me think. i've learnt to cook fish. chicken. soup. potatoes carrots. blah. and today i tried out corn. which is extremely difficult to chop into pieces of suitable sizes. with my mum's help we literally hammered the knife through the corn(yes i mean it. we used a hammer.) rah. cutting vegetables is more difficult then it seems. you know those cooking shows you watch. or IF you do actually watch them. they chop the vegetables so quickly my eyes can't follow. but if I tried to do that. well. let say it'll get pretty messy. so i do everything really slowly.
like really. even when i cook. due to spatial constraints of my frying pan. its. small. no other word for it. its too small to be a proper frying pan for dinner. i think my mother got it for the sole purpose of frying eggs. yup. so you can imagine how small it actually is. so the dishes that i manage to cook are usually different tasting on different portions of the food. haha. i'm forced by circumstances to cook in batches so every batch is unique. haha. i mean i'm not good enough to cook evenly for three different batches of fish. i'm new to this thing okay? i need some slack. haha.
and oil + water in a heated pan. = really painful stuff. haha. the spluttering superheated oil from the pan on my skin isn't exactly something to look forward to. but in almost every case where i have to fry vegetables it happens(coz vegetables are always wet...it gives them the fresh kinda look you know. haha). but a little bit of toothpaste and the pain is gone. pity that the bathroom is kinda situated away from the kitchen. and no prizes for guessing where my toothpaste just so happens to be in.
haha so yeah.
soon i shall be able to cook without my mother's help! i shall try to cook prawns sometime soon. haha. i think i'll make a huge mess out of them. but anyways it'll be fun. haha.
hopefully.
well gotta rush to telemarketing soon. the rules there are getting more rigid. rah. and my boss always appears in the office nowadays. darn.
