Pictures Promised and WAYYYY Due

Thursday, January 7, 2010 @ 10:16 PM

Dear all,

This is bad naughty me blogging in class.
Well not actually, we're having a 5 min 'coffee-break' (i miss nescafe regular by the way, big hints to those back in msia~)
CS116 is really not that challenging after taking C135. I feel like I'm back-tracking haha, with Jon going to CS136 and me going back. Oh well, I suk. Makes me really terrible because it kinda reinforces the fact that girls are computer-noobs. BUT, it just shows how nerdy guys are. MUAHAHAHA~

Here're the photos that I'd promised. I'm doing this backwards in term of the time-line.
Our first and maybe ONLY eating-out lunchie for this month. One of my 'new term resolutions' is to SAVE MORE $$!!
We went to the post office in between our lessons and realized that we have no time to go back home for lunch so we decided to dine out. They people damn cute, saw that we were sharing so they prepared the dishes specially lol.

potato and chicken..i think..?
see the heart-shaped bread? haha surprised us..

poutine. a canadian fave. french fried with beef and chilli.
this place's version got white gooey stuff. eww~

At Grace's place. I learnt how to solve the Rubik's cube!

THANKEW GRACE!

After 5 hrs of karaoke-ing for the awesome price of $5 with a free bubble tea for each person, Grace and her housemates brought us to all-you-can-eat hotpot!! We had curry and 'qing tang' X).

hohoho...eating hotpot in the winter..especially curry flavoured is da best!!!

the round balls are called tao pok i think, don't quote me on that :/

Grace saw me playing wif Mr. Prawn

Grace brought Mrs Prawn to play along X)
good kids don't play with their food! >.<

We went skating the whole day for 7$
If only we had our own skates cuz admission was FREE!

Loads of people! Saw this kid who skates soo well~ He wore those army pants and was trying to luk macho...lol...

MEEE~ GOSH the shadow of the tree luks so ominous
crap, i just though of Final Destination..creepeee~

Tired. Cold. EXTREMELY SATISFIED & HAPPIE XD

Went to Chinatown to look around. Took the streetcar there from the subway. FIRST TIME ON THE STREETCAR. woohoo~ On a serious note, I don't think I would dare to step out of my house without Jon. All those but stops, bus numbers, trains, streetcars and time schedules to remember! ARGH~ So, thank you la dear for bringing me out and researching on all the frustrating timetables. :)

We went to a Chinese grocery market where I found Old Town Kopitiam Teh Tarik!!
We also went to this Chinese Dim Sum place which had great reviews online for being cheap and yumylicious. The funny thing is, you have to pay the exact amount in dollars and cents if you don't want to be ripped off here. They don't return you any change at all! Since we didn't have much of an appetite, we kinda da bao a lot of the food for dinner. Like usual. Haha, we kinda do that everday during this trip.

TARO!!! FINALLY. mom, the taros here are HUMONGOUS!

People, let me introduce you to Mr. Large FAKE Milo, Jr. Small FAKE Milo, and Ms. Large REAL Milo. One happy family.

Egg Tart. That bite was made by the excited 'tan chi gui' Jon.

Lo Mai Gai & Char Siew Pau
For those with a discerning eye, yes, the lo mai gai is gone already and there's one missing pau.
Culprit: JONATHAN JONG. SIGHS.

Har Gao

CHEE CHEONG FUN! MUMMY MISSES U SOO MUCH!

You can see these type of plastic tablecloths in ALL chinese restaurants
To clean up a table, the waiters just wrap the whole plastic with all the dishware and dump the whole lot into some secret box where everything gets magically cleaned.
Fine, the last part was all crap, but wth.

Siu Mai

Lor Pak Goh (haha my han yu ping ying)
I realized that radish is another veg Jon eats! Hurray! *yes, i'm being condescending*

Meat and Taro
According to Jon, it was really good even though he ate this after it was refrigerated for 2 days.

Almond Dessert! Too sweet for me >.<

Grace took us out for Vietnam one night. It was yum X).

Haha typical Vietnam rolls. Me likey.

Grace's random shot

My taro shake and Jon's....
DURIAN SHAKE!!
According to Grace, this shake is like the fave for all msian students in mississauga
it definitely smelt like durians~

Grace's Pad Thai.

Jon's beef thingy. Forgot what it was called. :/

My green curry! yummmm~

Another dim sum entry. Haha I really missed it and when I searched for good food in Mississauga, I was amazed to see so many good dim sum available. The food in this restaurant was really cheap and not bad in terms of taste. The service was appalling though, with the waiters' stuck up attitudes.

mah sesame balls!! i have no idea y i insist on ordering this when i don't really like the sweet fillings. maybe it's the fact that dim sum doesn't feel like dim sum without sesame balls. You get me? Hmm..perhaps not..oh well~

Yam thingy. Me not a fan. Was so oily and I could hardy taste the taro.

Jon's fave. Can't understand. Weird smell and taste.
It's different from msia's for being white :/ Tasted different also, according to Jon.

Congee.

DA PAO!

Siew Mai and Fried Har Gow

Cute snowman X)

Went to an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant on Christmas! Yes, searched it online too and it had good reviews. There was a surcharge if we wasted any food and we weren't allowed to da pao (shucks) but clever ole me managed to stuff the food into tissues (yueck i know, but it's good food and MY PRECIOUS MOOLAH!)

this was wat it looked like at 9am. After half an hour, it was FULL.

i know i luk dumb but we managed to reach safely although we had no idea where we were!

awesome wasabi.
i bow in respect.

ordered one for both of us but both went to jon's tummy
i was bursting!!

some meat skewers i ordered for jon
as usual, meat went in and veg was left on the plate.

TEMPURAAA~ some table opposite us ordered more than 10 O.o

MAKI MAKI!

salads and cakes

me: green tea and ginger

jon: mango all the way~

Further research online brought me to Guru Lukshmi. INDIAN FOOD. We went there during Christmas for dinner. We stepped into the crammed restaurant and VOILA, we saw black and pairs of white eyes O.O staring at us! It was packed with Indians and we looked like yellow chicken in a coop of black turkeys. HAHA~ The waiters were all so friendly and nice to us foreign chickens though.

huge ass samosas with ewwey green goo

mango latte

jon's dosa.
jj: pls recommend me something on the menu
waiter: hmm..wat's the degree of spiciness can you withstand?
jj: ......
yx: 0. nada. anything non-spicy?
waiter: ....
waiter: *luks very disturbed*
waiter: .... let me see. we shud have something for u
and we ended up with this! ROFL i changed some parts of the conversation but the real thing was more hilarious

mine! it was biggg! wanna know how big?

THIS BIG!

Went to Eaton Center, something like what Mid Valley is to us KL people. Ate at this restaurant (with good reviews too but was something I wud label as the fine-dining, but since it was Jon's treat..muahahaha..) This building below was next to the shopping center which really contrasted a lot in its architecture with the modern shopping center. We were extremely curious what it was. Hmm, maybe we should check it out during the next visit.

Mango with some vodka. Forgot the exact term. I had choc!

Jon's Buffalo Wings and my broccoli + potatoes

jon's mushroom burger

dessert. DIDNT EXPECTED IT TO BE SOOO BIG! wasn't too bad.
jon's brownie was nicer imo. *don's get big in your head dear winks*

This was another day. Don't remember when. Bought these for lunch and dinner.

Random pictures which I wanted to blog about but forgot.
