Saturday, 28 May 2011 ~porridge and home-made fried rice~

Ok, so I started my day off at 9am with a bowl of Uncle Toby's porridge made by mum <33. I know it sounds boring but it contains loads of oatmeal and milk which has alot of fibre and calcium, so you know its good for your body. My mum also added a teaspoon of pure Australian honey to everyone's bowl (my dad, my brother, herself and me) to give the porridge the most original, tastiest and healthy flavour. The calcium in the milk (in the porridge), is very useful to our bodies and will make our bones stronger. Fibre in the oats allow the wastes in your large intestine, to be more softer which lets the wastes pass out of our bodies easier.

I had an extended breakfast so it was kind of like a brunch at 11am in Good Kitchen(a local restaurant /cafe) after I had piano lessons. I had a portion of a bowl of macaroni with peas and small strips of chicken. Accompanied with that I had a some bacon slices, scrambled eggs and a slice of bread. Aah...and also some steamed rice rolls with scallops. This meal is, if I remember properly, $6.50 AUD with a choice of hot or cold drinks which are included in the meal. My mum and dad always drink hot milk tea after we've finished the foods.

For lunch, I had a very colourful and nutritious home-made fried rice! I washed the rice and placed it in the rice cooker. My dad did the rest. He combined a small pieces of scrambled egg, peas, corn, rice, carrots and chopped up bit of BBQ pork into the rice. I think the trick is to add a touch of salt in the combination. The peas, corn and carrots were originally in a pack bought together already chopped up. By letting the rice cool down for a bit before putting all the ingredients together, it will give the rice a nice texture when eaten. Before you mix everything remember to put some oil onto the pan. Everything is placed into the pan and by using a non-stick kitchen utensil (I forgot its name, sorry...), you stir the rice, corn, peas, carrots, BBQ pork and egg until you can smell the combination. Remember not to overcook it, or else the rice will start sticking to the pan (allow a tiny bit to). If you like the rice to be a bit crunchy, you can overcook the rice slightly.

That's all for today, I think I'm having congee tonight for dinner. I have to wash the meat so, until next time!

New idea for blogging :)

While not blogging for a while I have thought about what kind of blogs I should write about. An idea popped up inside my head a few days ago. I've tried blogging about anime (well actually drama), about school, and my incomplete story. This new idea I came up with is blogging about what I eat!! Yea, I know, it's really lame, but I think it'll be fun. I'll do this until I can't be bothered, or if I come up with another amazing idea, ok?

I "worked to death"...

BIG SIGH~~~~~ hi everyone! It's been exactly a week before the first day of term 2 in year 8. Ever since then, I have completed 3 tests and 3 assignments not including a 2 more tests and a music solo performance tomorrow and next week. Yep, that's right. It's the half-yearlies week. These tests count towards my first semester report. It's ONLY the second week of term 2 and the art teacher says she has to mark everything in your art diary cos she has to write your report =_=''(what the heck?!?). Well yeah, the teachers are busy, blah blah blah...but we really shouldn't need to do a test and hand in our assignment on the FIRST day right after the holidays, right?!

It's not like we have completely nothing to do in the holidays. Holidays for us, means a time to chillax at home without needing to get up 7am in the morning to catch the bus and train to school. Some people are lucky that the live right next to the school, and others, not so lucky (sorry roni).For me, it was a time to hang out with my mates or watch anime and read manga. And read books. Do lots of things you never could have done on school weekdays.

I just did my history assignment today. We had to write about a Roman person + do a speech + present it with a prezi. Which is a 'zooming presentation editor'. It was supposed to be a "guide" to the speech. The topic I chose were priestesses doctors slaves. Unfortunately, half the class had chosen this topic and many of my images were not surprising or really interesting. I was shaking, like literally couldn't type my email and password. I stuffed up 4 times, like made a spelling error in my log in T^T. Throughout the whole speech thing, I was stuttering and I had no response from the audience so I kept worrying if I had did anything wrong. And I'm pretty sure I spoke way over the time limit.

Thanks for letting me whinge about myself and tests and stuff. I whinge to much. Probably because I am very lazy; well I'm planning to improve so then...

Byebye! :)
