May 29th, 2011 私は怒っている
Kyo wa hare desu! 
(Alright so awkward to be saying “it’s so sunny!” on an angsty day.)
I’m on my off day and finally I get more sleep! So so deprived of zzzz and woke up with a sore throat, how bad. 
Not in good mood yesterday + today. Okotte imasu!! I wonder is PMS the cause of it. But I don’t believe in such thing like PMS. I think mummy noticed my mood swing today and she kept talking to me and follow me wherever I go at home when I kept quiet all along because I don’t like to talk when I’m down. Don’t wanna confide to her so not to worry her.
I wanna blog about it and I will feel better.
So it was yesterday when someone provoked me. (I am not a person with good temper in the first place)
This particular person (person X) has been getting on my nerves several times and I held my anger back thinking that I should not flare up I should not flare up I should not flare up I should not flare up or things gonna get ugly. Person X has always been against me for everything I said and everything I do and thinking itself (yes I wanna use ‘ITSELF’ 
) is the worlds’ smartest creature. I mean, I welcome your suggestion but you don’t have to slam on things infront of me after I said something. And again, I held myself back thinking I should respect person X. When I keep quiet doesn’t mean you can climb over my head again and again, patience has its limits.
Finally, person X again rage at me umpteen times in a day for no reason and I exploded, literally. I chided person X like some crazy woman till I forgot what I said to person X.
I’m like “eh once, twice, thrice is enough” I have been tolerating for the longest time ever, this person X has apparently crossed over the line.
Whenever I get angry at someone, I will cry. I don’t know why but it made me look so loser-ish.
And y’know, anger is like water in a vase. Once it reach the brim, it’ll flow.
I am not an anger venting machine nor I can tolerate people raging at me. Because even my parents and boyfriend doesn’t do so, so who is person X to be talking to me in this way. I am not spoilt. But I won’t let anyone cross over my line.
On the other hand, I know if I’d managed my anger well, people wouldn’t have saw the ugly side of me. 
Anyway, pictures!

I’m in the process of learning japanese, I don’t want to go…. ‘HUH’ when the Japanese talk to me. Basically I’m learning how to speak Nihongo rather than to writing it, think that probably will be when I learn all the basics. The girls gave me a Japanese name “Maki” and the inspiration came while we were eating Sakae Sushi. LOL. So I’m now Wendy Ashley Maki See. HAHAHA.
Was at my cuzzie’s wedding last Saturday @White Rabbit, and I must say that the wedding is like a fairytale come true. I bet this couple’s wedding is every girls’ dream. Pink polka dots, lace, bird cage, pink feathers, wooden horse…………… they even went Japan specially for their wedding shoot. I want I want!
And I hate it when the newly wed always have speeches that made me tear, cause its soooooooooooooooo loving and touching.
So how do you like me in curls?
Hehe I look ugly here but my grandma look so cute! Hahahaha♥♥♥♥ she is the cutest ah ma ever!

Advertorial: Angel Xin Beauty
Did my hair and eyelash extension solely at Angel Xin. Went for my appointment the other day for eyelash extension this time round. And many people would wonder will there be any pain/irritation throughout. And nope, I almost fell asleep!
Before
After
You can choose from dolly/natural-looking lashes. For me, I’d prefer natural ones.
It’s already few days after my eyelash extension and it’s totally hassle-free! I saved alot of time on sticking the falsies and I won’t rub my eyes again(bye eyebag heeheehee)!! And usually eyelash extension can last you for around 3 good weeks to 1 month. I don’t have to worry about the falsies falling off when I’m out anymore. Hooray~
Totally love Angel Xin Beauty for such awesome treat! ♥♥
Xoxo,
Wendy
Hehe this is my favourite photo currently.
Happy 28th monthsary to dearest! You’ll get sick of celebrating each and every month’s anni at this stage and eventually you’ll forget this date. Plus if you’re with a boring boy, you wouldn’t even want to celebrate it. HAHAHA. He never fail not to surprise me. LOLWTF. And I’ll always have to remind him “eh tomorrow what date ah” then what’s worse is that we’ll go SHOPPING. Shopping on anniversary #$%^&* . I mean it’s very nice to be doing something different on the special day. Hahahaha. But somehow I find is very mushy to be celebrating when you both aren’t at the “pak tuo” stage anymore.
Another good news is that my little nephew is probably arriving in mid August! HEHEHE. I love baby boy and I can’t wait to carry it cos I didn’t get a chance to in my past 20 years!
Random photo non photoshop.
Makeup create wonders hahaha! I really hate putting on makeup. Firstly it’s because putting on makeup is time-consuming. Secondly, it’s bad for skin complexion. Lastly, it irritates me badly I don’t know why.
BUT.
I need it. Sadly.
Fuxk you blemishes and scars. I swear I won’t poke my zits again 〜(*´д`*)！
Photo taken using my phone during work without photoshop. I’ve no time to photoshop my pictures at all:(
Catch us @ AKB48 Official Shop Singapore! If you happen to bump onto me say hiiiiiiiii okay! Hehe.
This is my family’s little furball hehehe, he has been with us for 8 years.
And I saw a reader’s blog(through nuffnang), she posted my pics together with blog url and said……. “ahlian ttm but v skinny and pretty lol” Hahaha! I stalk people’s blog too one okay. You read me, I read you. HAHHAHA. I’m over the moon about the pretty part, but for ahlian ttm and skinny………. :( I am not ah lian. I am skinny but I hate being skinny.

Regret on snipping your long hair SHORT.
And your hair seems like its taking forever to grow.
(Picture taken 8 months ago)
Seriously I hated myself and have ultra low confidence when I had short hair. And if you read my blog long enough, you would know that I went for hair extension some time ago at some random shop. Well I wasn’t very happy with my hair too cos the extentions doesn’t look natural at all. So soon after I removed it and I gave up hair extensions.
Personally I think it’s important to get your hair extensions at the RIGHT place so you can entrust your hair to the professionals.
Nonetheless, I can assure you that Angel Xin Beauty is the right place from my personal experience.
Or if you are wondering if hair extensions would damage your hair. Fret not. NO GLUE, NO HOT IRON, NO HAIR WASTAGE, NO DAMAGE TO EXISTING HAIR, AND ITS REUSABLE!!
This is their newly open 4th retail outlet in People’s Park Centre #02-11
It’s very comfy and homely.
Instead of telling them what you want, Angel Xin’s professionals would actually advise you on what is good on you. Having such a long sit over at Angel Xin, I noticed their customer varies from ages and they sure cater to everyones’ hair needs. Well, I can firmly say that they provide you with a 5-star service.

NONYA KUEH - ONDEH ONDEH
I’m a huge fan of nonya kueh and I’ll always have cravings for them. Bengawan Solo is my best friend. They never fail to make me stop and take a look at them………….and hallucinating them in my mouth ngom ngom ngom~ HAHA. Especially the ondeh ondeh, the oozing gula melaka…………ohman♥♥♥ know there’s some ondeh ondeh that’s filled with coconut? I don’t like those cos it’s boring if it’s coconut at the outer and if the filling’s coconut too(´-_-`)”
And I had my virgin try on making ondeh ondeh(with help from my mommy(・∀・)”). And I’m gonna prepare this again tomorrow for the boyfriend though he doesn’t like kuehzzzz hahaha!
Everyone of you should try preparing, you’ll enjoy the process of making them yourself and of course, they taste great!
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
INGREDIENTS
♪ 400g glutinous rice flour
♪ 250g sweet potatoes
♪ 3tbsp pandan juice
♪ 2 tbsp water
♪ 150g gula melaka
♪ 2 cups fresh grated coconut
♪ 1/2 tsp salt
METHOD
Boil the sweet potatoes in a medium pot until tender, 20 to 30 minutes, depending on size of sweet potatoes.
When cool enough to handle, mash the sweet potatoes in a potato riser or masher. (If you are using a masher, you will have to peel the sweet potatoes first)
In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato with glutinous rice flour and Pandan extract and knead well to form a soft dough.
Mix the grated coconut with a pinch of salt and steam for about 2 - 3 minutes and let it cool completely.
Bring a pot of water to boil. Pinch a small piece of dough (about 15 g each) and flatten lightly. Fill the center of the dough with gula melaka. Roll them in your palm to form a smooth ball and cook the ondeh ondeh in the boiling water. When the ondeh ondeh float to the surface, remove them with a slotted spoon and shake off the excess water.
Coat the ondeh ondeh with grated coconut and serve immediately.
(Thanks to SITE for the recipe)
Step by step guide for you!(Pictures taken with my 1 day-old baby ⊂((・x・))⊃ )
Here’s what you need, glutinous rice flour $1.20, pandan leaves $0.50, gula melaka $1.50, grated coconut $1.
Sweet potatoes $1.
Total approximately $5.20?
Oh back to the guide, you have to boil the sweet potatoes for about 20 mins! After which you’ll have to peel it and mash it!
Blend the pandan leaves with 200ml of water.
Errr kinda gross, it smells like grass.
Filter it into a glass.
Mix glutinous rice flour, pandan juice and mashed sweet potato. Knead well to form a smooth dough.
Pinch a small piece of dough (about 15 g each) and flatten lightly. Fill the center of the dough with gula melaka. Roll them in your palm to form a smooth ball. And this picture looks dirty and messy wth lol!
Boil those little balls till they float onto the surface!
Let it cool for 5 mins before rolling them on the grated coconut!
In any case, if you plan to make this delicious snack, do adjust the flour according to the sweet potatoes’ texture. Some tubers’ might have very soft or fibrous flesh. Add more flour if it’s too soft, of course. Just remember that the dough is supposed to be very soft and slightly sticky. So, have fun making them.
Best served warm - pops in your mouth with a sweet sensation of the oozing gula melaka!
Are you hungry yet? Hehe! Anyway, have fun making these little ballzzz!
