HELLO MY BLOGGIE MC BLOGSTER!!!!!!
Yeah, so I might be posting for a few times these holidays to let everyone know about my thoughts and things I'm just curious about in general. I'm feeling methodical so lets just have a numerical list here:

1. After watching about every single episode of Masterchef, I do wonder why one must make such a large quantity of food only to plate up the minutest amount. Is this, perhaps the reason why top restaurant quality food is so expensive? For example, in a pressure test, the contestants had to plate up George's 'Capsicum Terrine' and basically they used about 15 whole red capsicums, chopped them nicely and fit them into an arms length (from your elbow to your hand) log tray when a 7x2x5 cm slice.I know that chefs must actually save the rest and use it for another time, but seriously, is it that hard to cut a few more slices up and make a nice, real dish that satisfies one's appetite? Also, if you give me a massive plate with 3 pieces of ravioli and some kind of oil dressing that you pass off as 'consumme' or 'broth' I'm gonna be annoyed. I come the restaurant to eat not admire your crockery. Perhaps it is an incentive to order more from the menu. Ironically, I dont get why waiters take the menu away from you once you've ordered. For me, I actually enjoy looking at the pictures of desserts and it makes me wonder whether I should have some...

2. I bought Maybelline Baby Lips (lip balm) for $3 in Antioxidant Berry. And I was loving it. Until I lost it for a week. Then I bought another one because my lips were drying out. I tell you, lip balm is like an addiction. It's not a placebo effect! Well anyway I bought another one for $4. The next morning, I found my long lost one, at the back of mum's car.

3. Let me give you a little bit of advice-take it from the sushi queen ie ME ;) Do not ever mistake avocado for wasabi....

4. My total 'pants' count is now 3. If you didnt know, I never wear pants. And then winter came. Because Stockings and leggings dont suffice. I have a floral pair of jeans that I wore on mufti, a light blue tube jean (that I got for $39.95!!) and black leggings which I still count as pants cos theyre warm.

5. I had this fricking weird dream the other day that I swear lasted for hours. My bath tub was my fish tank LOL. And one of my fish jumped out and landed in the basin. (btw I have gold fish). And it was flapping around as all fish do when theyre out of water but I was too scared to grab hold of it and put it back in the bath tub. So I ran the tap on to make sure it stayed wet, for two days HAHAAHHA.That was my attempt at keeping it alive. By the time I came back, it had died :( And its eye split in half :S

6. I hate it when you text a person, asking them something relatively important and they dont answer  your question. Big Pet Peeve grrr.

Goodluck for trial study and umat prep! Wishing everyone all the best :) xx
