just after 1 sem in geelong...

i can somewhat safely say, i have completed my 1st semester in deakin university, geelong. good luck for another 3 (or more)...

looking back to what i have been through for the past few months. it just proves how small we are in this world... org putih sume besar2..haha.xdelah. ada je lagi kecik dari aku

i've learned a lot but i know for sure i will learn a lot lot more. i experienced a lot, and i will sure be experiencing more in the future. learning outside your comfort zone really is something isn't it?

i've learned to cook. real cooking. i cooked before, but not for eat sake like people depends on your cooking u know? mothers would know how 5 hungry boys in a house who wait eagerly for dinner every day. that's me on the mother side right now, though i dont cook everyday. we rotate 5 of us everyday. i know that i will enjoy cooking.but never thought this much this fast.

so far i've cooked ayam tandoori (original tandoori with my own spices done from scratch), for 5 families in which we invited to eat at our house.jamu kecil-kecilan rapatkan ukhuwah kata org.quite a feat for someone who just started cooking it just a week before. before that during our housewarming event i teamed up with zakwan and did roti jala. i did once in malaysia and fortunately had the chance to harness my lipat roti jala skill here again. it was gone in literally minutes. i just got sekeping from hundres we did. memang best.haha.

i successfully did ayam kari that tastes like real curry with extra spicy and extra lemak. and got the seal of approval from tazz when she tasted it.haha. chicken soup which tasted good though quite easy to cook. ayam masak kari is another curry base menu i did which is my own improvisation of another menu in which is so spicy, my housemate got teary eyed.sorry, i thought it was on the mark but looks like it was a bit off.

A few days ago i tried doing tiramisu. which is a failure if u really compare it with secret recipe.haha. but still got eaten clean by my housemates. later i asked hilmi where he replied it actually tasted like ice cream.no wonder they finished it off.my tiramisu ice cream.haha. it was actually for corio's housewarming party. in the end we brought nothing and went home full.memang betul py makan free..haha

anyway, there are plenty other things i want to share. like the cold weather, our journey along the great ocean road, sunday markets, the extremely nice malay families here in geelong and more. but i have to go now. nak main game pulak.
