after the ifa (intermediate financial accounting) mid-sem paper on thursday, cheryl, zhi hao n i decided to go for ice cream at fredos. i had durian and fredos' surprise each one scoop. argh, it made me miss durian back in m'sia. after that we went to elizabeth street to look around the camera shops. i saw a few that i like but the price was also 'liking'...later we had 'lord of the fries' and had a walk back to their apartment. it was cold and windy tat evening. had a good walk along yarra river and the night view was beautiful. we then took the train to camberwell for dinner. hahaha, only 3 dishes and we also didnt manage to finish. we ordered a seafood platter (fretto misto), a plate of spaggheti carbonara and a small pizza. the carbonara was delicious but we were too full to finish it so we 'da bao' it lor. reach home quite late tat nite but had a nice time together chatting lolx!!! =P

on saturday, we went to boxhill. aunty jane brought us to forest hill. saw lots of cute thingys there! maybe i'll go another round lolx. things there were extremely cheap! we saw a set of cooking utensils (70 pieces) and it only cost $129! the whole set looks so nice! later we went back to boxhill. aj brought us to a few shops that sells asian groceries and also a seafood shop. saw so many choices of dumplings and dessert in the seafood shop. reli make me drool lar...c & zh managed to get 'Overseas Restaurant' mooncake from the grocery shops. i can really feel the autumn festival mood over there. you can find boxes of mooncakes in stacks around any asian grocery shops over there. i miss the cheesie mooncake from Tai Thong and the yam mooncake from Teochew Restaurant so much!!! omg, how i wish i am back home now!!! later i got some 'yong tau foo' from a shop. bought six pieces of it as i reli missed mum's. mum's ytf is a mix of pork and fish meat together with spring onion but the ytf here was oni fish meat, but at least i get to eat rather than nothing mar...bought also 2 pkts of vegetarain curry/rendang. but hor, its imported from m'sia de lar...using double the price to buy over here. =.= '''
had a good rest on sunday and did 'part' of the bf assignment together with c & zh on monday.
we continued today but at last decided to put it aside lar as we didnt have any idea how to answer the questions...geram betul!!! (T.T) so........we decided to go over to their apartment to bake scones and a butter cake!!!! i am SOOOOOO happy that the scones turned out perfect! its the first time for me baking scones lol. the texture was ngam ngam leh! we ate with jam and butter lolx! later only mum told me tat we eat either with cream or jam, anyway, it was DELICIOUS!!!

while whisking the batter for the butter cake, i thought that its 'gone case' liao as the batter was too dry. when we double checked with the recipe oni to find out that we forget to add in milk. hohoho, luckily in the end the cake turned out GOOD! the sweetness was ngam ngam and the tecture was fine too (although the look wasnt reli nice ^_^ )! ops, no photos for the cake as we we too excited le and i cut liao the cake oni realised...=D
