sweet potato chips

 kerepek 'sweet potato' -serius saya taktau nama melayu utk sp ni

satu hari tu, labmate saya balik dari mana entah dan bagi la sweet potato chips sbagai 'omiyage'..
perghhh sedap sgt..bila check ingredients cuma yg ditulis hanyalah potato, salt and vegetable oil.
simple snack, super duper easy to prepare yet tasted so good..

smbil2 makan berangan nak buat sendiri..terus teringat ada stok dirumah..
balik ja dr lab hr tu, terus godek2 apa patut..
sweet potato

mcm saya kt tadi la, super duper easy nak buat ni..kat kedai ada juai dalam paket  ready-to-eat tp mahal  dan ada campuran sayur2 dan buah2 lain termasuklah labu..
yg saya buat ni versi single..hehhheee
tanpa perlu kupas kulit, terus hiris nipis2 dan goreng sampai masak..jaga2 jgn sampai hangit tau..
sweet potato chips in 'hangit' version..
close up sikit..buat ni pakai 2 ubi kengkononnya nak simpan la utk hari2 kemudiannya..
tp hrmmmm paham2 jela ya..

on the next day, sy buat lg sekali chips ni..memg makan sungguh2 la..lepas puas makan terus tak terfikir lg dah pasal chips ni. no more chips please!

piece of hardwork~

i used to knit when i was 12 years old, learnt it from my classmates after finished our UPSR examination. heheh, at that time almost everyone in the class became addicted  to knit. I can hardly remember who started the whole knit fever but as far as i can remember everyone was working hard on their own masterpiece. At that time, i managed to make a pink bag enough to carry small bottle of mineral water. ..ehheh what a nice memory..

Last autumn when cold air started to show up in tokyo, most of 100yen shop started to sell things for knit. Different kind of threads, needles and even instruction books. I didn't give so much attention to this knit things at first because i am really sure that i am no longer have an ability to do knit. I tried it before but i failed so i told myself not to waste money over things that i can't do.

But, last few weeks i keep on thinking about trying on knit again. 'Well, it will not kill your wallet if you just spend few hundred yen on those things'. that is what i keep on telling myself and because of that i took the challenge and i bought these necessary  items for knit. 

in just less than one hour i managed to get  back my skill! woooo i am so surprise and impressed with myself..hohohoh, nothing to brag about since i am just making simplest thing in the world which is shawl..yeee, really great for winter. i love the texture of the thread so much. it is really soft, fluffy and really make me feel warm..

i am so glad that this small project turn out to be useful and very good stuff for winter. 

~well, never stop trying okay~

good things always come with great reasons!

i want to share something today..

okay, if you a good observant you can see that i always published story that actually taken either few days or few weeks or even few months ago..heheheh, i don't feel like writing when i have interesting things in hand but just keep on scribble everythings in my mind. 

i want to share few things that i received from my sensei since i enter the lab. 
1- sweaters for winter, used one but still in very good condition. woohoooo i will have sensei by my side even at home!
2- fruit juice, chocolate, biscuits or senbei when i stay back or stay in the lab during weekend.
assorted kinds of rice cracker (senbei)

kuih tak tau apa nama tapi rasa macam kuih kcang yg biasanya ada masa raya saja..
3- this one seems to be hilarious okay. it is a pack of rice!

we had lunch together one day and discussed about rice in japan. i love rice in japan, its kind of suit my liking, perfect to go with curry and even perfect for making nasi lemak..i told her that the one that i am consuming is the cheapest that i can get from my neighbourhood and it is actually grade F..hoohoh, i dont really mind about it as long as it taste good. good for stomach and better for my pocket..few days after our discussion she handed this pack of rice to me. i was so shocked and of course didn't expect anything like this! hahhaha, she said that this is her parents favourite and she insisted me to try them and experience how 'expensive' rice taste like..

okay, it is not great things to brag about but still i think that her action is just too sweet..heehhe maybe because i listen to her very well, working very hard even during holiday. yeah, why should i go for holiday if i have sooooo many things to do in the lab? i am not here for money but i am here for knowledge! There are people out there asking me to enjoy my holiday, stay away from the lab especially during new year holiday..hahahha, i personally think that his suggestion is too funny..what is in your mind man? how can you stay calm and relax while we are actually running out of time? you keep on reminding us that we have to work hard to get away from this first chapter of research but yet you are the one who don't work hard enough! when i first enter the lab i was so impressed with him. He seems to know so many things but hey after few months in the lab i can really see his true colours! I used to say yes to him before but now, haahhahaha no more dear! He seems to be mad at me when i said 'i don't mind working on holiday' to him. Yes, i don't mind because i don't see any reason for having a holiday. well, i am not celebrating new year as japanese did! 
 I have to work hard so that at the end of the day i can go for shopping without any guilty..hahahahhah, i need a very goooood excuse for shopping, very great reason to reward myself..and for my success in making vector for our expression experiment, i did some shopping particularly on winter jacket and shoes..heheheh, this is my first time shopping for winter shoes and it was so fun! i went to shibuya with yanie and we had really great moment together. we tried most of the shoes on display and can't stop laughing because those boots look really funny on us! 'mcm nk p bendang pon ada'-said yanie when i tried one of the boots..hahhahaha hampeh! after all it was really great moment and i ended up with this shoes..ehhhehhe thanks yanie for your accompany..next year i will be the one who will help you carry your shopping bag okay..
