没有你的…

来电：应该是没讯号吧？

出现：晚餐还是吃得超丰盛！

声音：可是… 每次门被打开，都希望是你…

第一晚：很平静。 因为我不哭。

“起床啦！”：我还是起床了…

回复：我还是可以等的…

味道：我开始用你的香水了。

拥抱：也开始穿你的衣服了。

晚餐：都忘了吃也…

早晨：我做了早餐！两份。

唠叨：我乖乖地洗了衣服。

陪伴：我化了妆，也带了伞…

支持：你是了解我的，你知道我不是懦弱的…

消息：没事的。至少我相信。

呼吸：才知道原来眼泪流了很久，只是流在心里… 不会有人看见我哭的…

Good Bye for Good

To say good bye is to let go,
To let go is to fear holding on;
To forget is to forgo the fear, and
To move on is to let the feelings fade away.

But no matter what I do,
Or how far I go,
You're the shadow that remains closely attached,
Appearing during the lonely nights of the cold winter.

Digging into my soul like spilt ink on the paper.

Peak District

Broken into a million pieces

The feeling is so strange it's almost sickening,
I don't know if it was love or hatred,
Passion or addiction,
Desire or deliberate self-harm,
All I know is that it is so unbearable I might just stop breathing if I don't stop thinking...

Maybe it's a revenge,
a punishment i deserve;
They say that if it is meant to be then it will be,
But life is inevitably full of uncertainty,
and what happened just made life ever more precarious and insecure for me...

Like a blind eagle or a deaf bat...

New Family Car for the Home-coming Princess!

Daddy bought a seven-seater to welcome baby girl's home-coming!!!!! So super ultimately SWEET!!! Love daddy!!! Hug hug hugzzzzzz!!!~~~Baby Girl is coming home to the new family car!!! HAPPY!~ Thanks daddy, xXXxXxXXxx!!! Baby feeling sayang-ed!

GRAB! Manchester...

I cant believe everything is coming to an end so soon!

Life is like a journey... Every now and then we cross paths...
People walk into and out of our lives everyday...
But friends are people who leave footprints...
As memories in the heart... Forever...

Once a GRABber always a GRABber!

That special someone....

For my Bestie, my Inspiration, my SUI PO!

If it is real, you'll never have to grasp too hard to keep it,
If it's vague like thin air, it will still fade off no matter how hard you try to get hold;
If it's just an illusion that blinds, someday you will see truth,
And when the haze is gone, what remains will always remain.

Love loads: Ah Yi!

Having someone who truly loves you is the greatest blessing one can ever have. I always think that I am blessed with more than I deserve. I have 3 wonderful people who loves me like a daughter - mummy, daddy and Ah Yi.

I don't know if it was me or is it really happening, every time I see mummy I think there is a little more wrinkle than I can remember, and daddy with more grey hair... This time I met Ah Yi and gosh ah yi is so small! I think she lost weight! I hate to see all these, I hate seeing my family grow old, I hate changes, I hate grey hair! It just makes me feel really bad to be away from home... The last thing I want to do is go home one day and find my family looking all different! I don't know if anyone can understand this feeling of fear, it's just terrible!

Ah Yi, must take good care of yourself! Get some rest when you are tired... Very chan already after this trip! Hugz and kisses xoxo

And thank you Melinda, Tim, Lilian, Jason, Siew Ping, Big Aunty, Small Aunty... Was a lovely trip! Hugs...

Easter Trip with Mummy Daddy!

Probably the happiest time of my entire life! I am so blessed because my parents will always love me more than I do, no matter how much I love them in return. Mummy is the cutest, bubbliest, loveliest person on earth! Sometimes I think to myself and regret the times when I was disrespectful or rude, and I begin to wonder how on earth could I have ever done such bad things staring at the face of an angel? My heart must have been blind! And my daddy is the funniest! Even the way he frowns in every photo is funny! All the jokes that we share... Most often people feel home sick because they are not used to living in a new environment but for my case it's not. I don't even think I am homesick in anyway, I just want to spend every hour and every minute of everyday with my family so badly because I am so loved...

Home..........

"Another summer day,
Has come and gone away,
Maybe surrounded by a million people,
But I still feel alone,
I wanna go home.

I feel like I am living someone else's life,
Like I just stepped outside,
When everything was going right,
I got to go home,
Let me go home,
I'm just too far from where you are,
I wanna come home..."

The REAL Yorkshire Pudding!

This time around it's much nicer than the previous one.. and actually more like the real Yorkshire pudding! Yumm...

In the cooking mood...

Introducing... Yorkshire Beef Pudding - Improvised Version!
The first pie or pudding that you see is what I had in Leeds, called the Yorkshire Beef Pudding. It tastes sooooo good! Thick sauce with juicy beef slices and crunchy crusts... Yum yum!
Today I intended to make a cake but I dont have the measurements to make a proper one so I've decided to do it simply... by instinct! So I added flour, butter and egg. I forgot sugar! haha... Sounds impossible I know, but that happens... So it came out a little too crunchy and crispy for a cake, and obviously, unsweetened... When I tried to take the cake out of the tray, the bottom fell off because it got stuck onto the tray - I forgot to grease the pan! Ooops... So I started eating the "cake" from the bottom... It tastes quite good actually... Like some kind of pie... And so it reminded me of this beef pudding that I had before! I turned the cake or pie or whatever unknown food object it was around, I start eating from the inside, eventually what's left is exactly like the crust of the pudding! Instinct told me "Oooh I can make beef pudding!" and the rest is history~! The second pie that you see is what I made today! I didnt have beef slices so it was minced beef instead... and neither did I have beef stock to make the sauce so it was substituted by curry... And I had some brocolli left so... Oh well, it wouldn't be "Yee Voon's secret pudding" if I hadn't modify it a little creatively! Boun apetite~!

Yorkshire Beef Pudding - from Leeds market

Yee Voon's Secret Pudding!

Ingredients:

Flour, water, egg, butter, beef, brocolli, curry,

Some imagination, creativity and a pinch of instinct.

Who said I can't cook?!

Today I'm in quite a good mood so I made myself a lovelly little salmon steak! Just two slices of fresh salmon, some brocolli, an egg and mushrooms with a pinch of salt and pepper... and waaalaaah~! Yummie yummie!!! But what I enjoyed most wasn't the salmon though, was the mushroom!!!

Salmon Steak

The rest are what I've been eating lately... I got this 15 eggs for 1 pound from Tesco which is really cheap, so tomato egg sounds like just the right meal... Quite appetizing too... made me eat more after... haha...

Tomato fried egg

Nothing too great about this lasagna really... but the filling tastes awesome! Well I AM a pro in making pasta so its basically the same thing. This is much juicier compared to my failure experiment last december, but the drawback is having no cheese (I'm on a diet! or at least trying to be...)

Beef Lasagna

I got this lovely bread from York which is really really good! Super high protein flour I'm sure! With some herbs and bacon and olives in there, heavenly! I heard German breads are really good, havent got the chance to try it so far, but I wonder if anything can be better than this one... Simply wonderful! Hopefully I'll get to try German bread sometime this year... Hopefully!~

Bread with bacon and olives (I didn't make this one!)

You cannot imagine how badly I'm craving for Malaysian food! And my mom's cooking essspecially!!! This, baby, is by far the best fried rice I've ever cooked! Cause I added "Adabi belacan untuk nasi goreng" into it, simply uh-ummm!! I miss mummy's "ham yu fa lam bou", "zhu geok chou", "den gai tong", "si ham paku choi", yellow wine chicken, "pak kut teh", "ham dan jing ju yuk", "ching jing sek ban", "geong yung sung yu", and even "ching chao choi sum" !!!~~~~

Fried Rice

This one is from "yong xing long"... 5 pounds for 48... but not half as good as what I had in the restaurant upstairs! It's all fat inside and no prawn... damn! But... it's good enough for what I've paid for so...

Siu Mai (Ok this one.. I just steamed)

Oh I love British pepper! It's sweet and colourful... Unlike what we get back home which is... tam mao mao... hahha...
