JJ I AM World Tour, Singapore Indoor Stadium

It has been more than 1.5yrs since I last went to a concert.

JJ I AM World Tour is the 3rd concert I have attended in my life and my 1st ever attended concert in Singapore Indoor Stadium.

My love to concert began when I first attended A-mei's Star Tour at National Stadium Bukit Jalil 2years ago. A-mei's performance, stage design and the live atmosphere were all too great and memorable. I can assure you that her concert is value of money and it is the best concert amongst the ones that I have been to thus far.

There were a few hiccups before JJ's concert. One of the major ones would be the admission of my childhood friend to the hospital to investigate the cause of her severe headache and vomiting. You could tell excitement in her easily 2weeks before the concert. However, things do happen out of our control at times. Unexpected things happen and learning to accept the changes is the key to it though it may not come easy.

So, what did we do? We went to the concert in two instead of three, we chose a few songs and skype-d with her when we were in the concert. LOL.

Visited her before the concert and brought her some snacks from ION.

Revisited her again after the concert. Brought supper and a souvenir from JJ's concert to her. If I were her, I would definitely not want to stay in the hospital alone. So, I decided to stay over at the hospital to keep her company.

Praise god nothing major happened to her. She was dignosed with migraine and discharged the following day.

Take good care of yourself my dear all. Do not let your beloved family and friends worried about you in whatever things you are doing, whoever you are with, whenever you are and wherever you are. Smile.

I have been missing in action for more than 1year now. To my suprise, I still hear people talking about my blog on and off even when I have had it neglected over the past 13months due to other commitments.

I would really like to say thank you to these people. Thank you for showing concerns and thank you for letting me know that I am not forgotten. Last but not least, thank you for picking up my interest in blogging once again.

I will try to keep my blog updated every now and then. Keep in tune. Cheers.

Cooking on weekends

My weekends in Singapore so far were mostly spent in kitchen or catching up with friends, don't really like the feeling of not doing anything at all over the weekends.

Now, I am presenting two of my produces from my humble kitchen in Singapore, prawn noodles soup and cola chicken wings respectively.

Prawn Noodles Soup

Aunt bought some chicken wings accidentally the other day. Hence, I decided to cook something new for my housemate and her family with these chicken wings.

Cola Chicken Wings

Honestly, I don't really like the two main ingredients (i.e. soft drinks and chicken wings) used in making the cola chicken wings. So I don't really fancy this dish in fact, but the feedback so far has been quite good and acceptable after having this dish cooked for different people to try for a few times, be it in Australia, Malaysia or Singapore.

Thank god my housemate and her family are able to accept my cooking so far *phew*

First attempt: Savoury muffin

Decided to trial this savoury cornmeal muffin on the 27th Sept 2009 since I had some ingredients awaiting to be used sitting at home.

The ingredients include corns, ham & some celery

Besides, my housemate seems to be very keen to be my guinea pig as she has had very good savoury muffin when she was at the States.

Ready to go in to the oven

The end product was a tad too salty, put too much salt! *sighs*

The finished product

I think I prefer the sweet muffin still :P

First blood donation @ NUH

Finally, after multiple persuasions by my colleagues and struggles, I decided to go for this blood donation held at NUH on the 25th Sept 2009.

My blood, for you - whoever in need ;)

I am not afraid of needles or anything like that. Nonetheless, blood donation was always linked to bruises in my perception after learning about one of my friend's experience of blood donation done by a poorly trained nurse.

Luckily, my experience was not that bad, no big bruise or pain. *phew*

Now, I dont mind going for another blood donation after 3months time to help people in need of my blood type, not that common afterall. Haha.
