If I am not lazy, I cook my own meal : Oatmeal Porridge. It’s my specialty, I am an expert in making oatmeal porridge >:) I learned this from my mom.

So let’s get started.

Prepare everything as seen on this picture above. In case you can’t figure out what’s on the pic :

1. 1 clover garlic & onion – yg kecil aja, ga butuh banyak-banyak
2. Leeks/celery
3. cabe merah – sesukanya, kalau mau pedes ya yg banyak sekalian ^^
4. 1 bungkus Quaker Oatmeal rasa ayam bawang (ada banyak rasa sih tapi gw lebih suka yg ini, yg lain rasanya aneh)dan yg tak terlihat di foto :
5. A glass of water (Buat kuahnya)
6. Garam,lada,masako rasa ayam, cabe bubuk

Setelah dipotong-potong, panasin minyak goreng (sedikit aja). Tumis semua bahan-bahan (bawang & cabe) sampai wangi baru deh masukin daging ayam cincangnya. Tumis lagi sampai ayamnya berubah warna jadi putih. Setelah itu baru masukin daun bawang/seledri nya. Oseng-oseng sebentar, tuang 1 gelas air (kalau takut kebanyakan bisa setengah dulu).

Setelah airnya dituang ke kuali, masukkan 1 bungkus Oatmeal ke kuali & mulailah meracik bumbu-bumbunya Sambil diaduk2, masukkan garem, lada, penyedap, dll. Oh iya, api nya harus sedang dan oatmeal harus terus diaduk supaya bubuk oatmealnya itu hancur, kalo kurang diaduk nanti ngegumpal-gumpal & bakal mengacaukan rasa nya T.T *been there done that mode on*

-This is where you start putting the egg state- Setelah oatmealnya diaduk-aduk kurang lebih 1-2 menit, mulai masukkan telor. Trus aduk-aduk biar telornya mateng.

Setelah dikira-kira mateng, tuang deh ke piring ^^

This is it *ala farah quinn* Meskipun tampilannya begitu tapi bubur oatmeal ini enak kok rasanya ^^

Kalau dari berita-berita yg gw baca, katanya nih ya, oatmeal is good for cancer-fighting, mengurangi LDL kolesterol tanpa mengurangi HDL-nya, bisa mencegah penyakit hati, memperlambat pencernaan (good for diabetics).

Jadi, segeralah resep bubur oatmeal ini dipraktekan. hehehe :p

Girls’ Generation a.k.a So Nyuh Shi Dae or if you can’t pronounce it just call them SNSD, they just released their second album called OH!. OH! PV trailer came out last week and I bet lots of SoShi fans were expecting  a hit song like GEE. The PV was Okay, I think it’s cute. All of them looks so cute. But the song is not something which I expected. I like it but not as much as I like GEE. The dance routine  is pretty hard too (according to my sisters who’ve been practicing for their own sakes. LOL)

The new album itself is pretty good ^^I will provide with the download link soon. *if I did not forget*

Meanwhile, enjoy the PV I found from youtube

Akhirnya sampai juga di usia ke 25 -seperempat abad- Malem sebelumnya (the last day gw berumur 24), rasanya maless banget ulang tahun, ga semangat, ga niat. Sempet mikir “Aduh, besok udah 25 aja. 5 taon lagi udah 30. Udah tua. Ngga bisa kebanyakan mainnya lagi. Mikirin merit, mikirin keluarga, dkk.”  Honestly, semua pikiran itu belum terpikirkan di kepala gw. Ya udah sih pernah tapi selalu berusaha untuk gw hilangkan karena masih belum siap apa-apa. Yah semoga dalam perjalanan menuju 26, gw udah mulai siap. hehehe

Tengah malam menjelang ulang tahun, mulai banyak ucapan2 selamat. Tentu saja yg pertama itu dari Mii ku :p Udah dibooking duluan sebelum jam 12 teleponnya biar jadi yg pertama. Hehe.

Pagi2 dianterin kue sama tante ku. Tiap taon selalu disediain kue ultah sama si tante Enak ya :p

Cukup santai juga sih sewaktu menjalani hari pertama di umur 25. Kecuali gw sempet mules2 tadi dari semalem T.T Untung ga berlanjut sampe sore. Menjelang sore dibawain kue sama Veo yg kubagi ke Mii juga pas dia dateng :p

Trus pulang kantor, makan-makan deh di Tamani. Tetapi eh tetapi …. ini bukan traktiran gw :p Gw yg ditraktir sama kantor hahaha ) Baek ya kantor gw, gw yg ultah gw yg ditraktir Hehee.. Ya ini emang bukan makan2 ultah gw sih, ini acaranya kantor So, makan2 gw diundur sampe gajian diterima juga deh (btw, tumben nih kita lom gajian T.T biasanya udah mana the last time kita gajian itu belasan Desember taon lalu, so kebayangkan bagaimana tongpes nya kita)

Malem2 si Mii dateng bawain kado ^^ Meskipun dah kemaleman dan cuman mampir bentar but it’s ok it’s allrite :p I’m hepi to the max deh.

Thanks to all yg udah nyempet2in ngucapin Happy Birthday secara langsung dan tidak langsung (FB, SMS, Chatting, Twitter, dkk). GBU all!

Thank you, God karena sampe sekarang I still can celebrate my birthday with my lovely people

Meksipun aku tak mengucapkannya tadi tapi aku mendoakan itu semua kok deep down my heart

*halah*

Belum makan2 soalnya mo digabung sama gw :p hehe. Emang enak kalo ultahnya deketan. bisa digabung. Bulan depan adek gw dan anjing gw si skippy (yg ini sih ngga digabung ), Bulan depannya lagi tante gw, oma gw yg udah meninggal, trus terakhir si mami deh. Cuma ade gw yg paling kecil yg belakangan bday nya.

Ngomong-ngomong ya, tadi pagi gw meeting di salah satu perusahaan telepon,gw kan ngga pernah meeting sama client -jarang- jadi gw ga tau kalo ternyata mereka udah pindah gedung. Jadi tadi gw diturunin di gedung yg salah ) Untung jarak antara gedung yg satu dengan yg lain ngga jauh tapi karena ujan jadi naik taxi deh

I am reading this very thick book right now, thick enough to satisfy my reading. I’ve already read half of it. It’s a children’s detective novel written by Trenton Lee Stewart. Usually detective novel is hard to understand, our brain needs to think harder to understand what the writer is trying to say but because it’s a children novel so it’s easy to read So it’s suitable for all ages

The second book already available in Bahasa too and the cover is PINK >:) I bought the first book because of the pink cover in 2nd book :p I’m a sucker for pink stuff :p I can’t wait to finish this one and buy the second one.

By the way my flickr pro account expired soon and I dont think Im gonna extend it any time soon. I’m gonna save my money for my next trip. hihihi. Where am I going? It’s a secret :p For those who knew already please don’t spill it out It’s coming really soonn…. >:) I dont even need to take my annual leave. hehehe

When I paid attention to the other guests, after we were being seated, they’d give you a menu book and they’d ring up the table. BUT NOT US! In fact, I had to call the waiter several times to get the menu books!! And the guest who were coming after us already got their pancakes while we’re still ordering! Isn’t it annoying like hell to be served like that??

After giving a grumpy look and a jutek tone to the waitress, we ordered our food. And again it took so long to serve the food!

Although the service was bad but not with me food. It’s delicious. My main menu came first.

Creamy Marinara Salmon

And then my friend’s Seafood marinara

It tasted the same like mine (iya lah… sama2 marinara sauce :p)

My sister’s came last. It’s so delicious! I’d like to trade mine with her :p

Those are crispy mushroom fried on top of the fettuchini. If I come to Pancious again, I must order this menu =p~

We also bought original pancake with vanilla ice cream. The pancake was still warm & the ice cream was cold, perfect  combo xD so delicious =p~ We also poured maple syrup.

Overall I like the food (esp the pancake) but not the service on that day. Nyokap sama adek gw ngga pernah mengalami kaya gini so maybe gw lagi kurang beruntung aja ya :p Temen gw langsung ngisi lembaran sarannya, makanannya dikasih good service nya payah. Masa ya… gue minta piring aja lamanya minta ampun! Padahal meja piring itu cuman disebrang meja gw. Sampe gw bentak tuh mas-mas nya. Kalau ga diladenin juga tadinya mau gw ambil sendiri abis diambilin lama…

Semoga yg punya PP baca….  your service on 20 dec 2009 – kelapa gading mall – evening shift = SUCKS!

Waktu gw dateng, mereka udah pada kelilingan Museum Fatahillah, ceritanya bisa dibaca lengkap di blog Veny

Gw langsung telpon Naki karena Kota Tua begitu besar dan rame banget :p Ternyata mereka di dalam museum Fatahillah. Sempet foto2 bentar di depan Sepeda Ontel. Sempet ditawarin sama bapak-bapak nya juga buat kelilingan pakai sepeda ini, but karena time is money *halah* jadi next time aja deh, Pak!

By the way, ini sepeda ontel tuh sepeda jaman dulu yg ngga ada rem nya bukan sih? Rem nya pakai kaki? atau ini udah pake rem? Dulu waktu di Jogja gw pernah nyoba naik ini, tpi karena tinggi banget dan kaki gw ga nyampe jadi serem juga klo di turunan ga bisa rem ) *secara di Jogja dulu mau ke pantai Pangandaran harus naik sepeda rame-rame pinjem sama keluarga asuhnya*

Lalu dari situ, kita jalan ke arah Sungai Ciliwung nya. Tempatnya kotor, ngga terawat dengan baik. Sayang banget, padahal tempatnya sangat amat bagus untuk rekreasi loh. Buat foto-foto juga bagus banget.

sampah dimana-mana

Dari situ, kita jalan lagi menuju ke Chinatown nya Jakarta yaitu Jalan Pancoran. Lumayan jauh jalannya tapi karena cuaca mendukung jalannya jadi ngga terasa capek. Oh iya, ruko ruko di sepanjang Jalan Pancoran ini penuh sama dekorasi warna merah padahal Sincia masih sebulan lebih Pasti tambah rame nih kalo udah mau Sincia.

Di daerah Pancoran sini, keluarga gw suka makan Sate ayam & seafoodnya kalo sore-malam. Ada juga yg jual Rujak Shanghai (rujak kangkung) disini. ya makanan-makanan chinese deh banyak Salah satu tempat wisata kuliner jga nih :p Bagi yg belum pernah makan Rujak Shanghai, rujak ini isinya cumi rebus yg dipotong-potong, teripang, & kangkung lalu disiram sama kuah berwarna merah yg rasanya agak2 sour gitu. Gw sih belum pernah coba karena masih terasa “aneh” ) Itu kan ada kayak kenyal2 gitu ya karena direbus, nah gw agak2 geli gitu makannya. hehehe. Tapi wangi nya enak. Kalau ada yg mau share sama gw boleh deh gw coba

Dari Jalan Pancoran, Veny ngajak kita buat liat klenteng di daerah situ. Klenteng pertama gw lupa namanya, kecil, dan gw ga foto2 disitu. Tunggu postingan Jie aja :p Tempat kedua, Gereja Santa Maria Fatima.

Unik gereja nya karena mirip dengan bentuk Klenteng. Kalau dibandingin sama gereja gw, gereja ini terlihat lebih kecil (^.^; )

Lanjut jalan lagi ke klenteng selanjutnya yaitu Jin De Yuan.

Bagus deh klenteng nya. Trus ya, dari 2 klenteng yg gw kunjungin, semua nya lagi pada berbenah. Dicat ulang, dibersihin, dll. Trus sempet masuk juga ke dalam Klentengnya buat numpang foto (^.^; )

Dari Klenteng, kita balik lagi ke Museum Fatahillah karena Jie harus beres-beres di Hotelnya. Sebelumnya makan mie dulu (lupa namanya) di gang “something” trus baru deh kita pulang

Foto-foto lengkapnya bisa diliat di flickr gw

I got new year’s card from Willy aka Sakura Lady. Also got Christmas Card from Feli. I should send them xmas/new year’s card too this year

Thank you, sakura lady!

Edited the color with Photoshop. Bener ngga kayak gini cara buat bokeh?

I did a lot of shopping at the beginning of this month (December was the season of SALE and Shopping, I’d better prepare for Dec’10 :p) Swipe here, swipe there :p It’s hard to stop shopping and swiping the card, isn’t it. And also when I did  shopping, ZARA was on SALE!! I got 1 t-shirt and 1 jeans legging <3

By the way, now I know why Korean artists have smooth and brighter skin? I learned a secret from a forum that it is because they use BB Cream. BB Cream stands for Blemish Balm Cream. It can be used for daily use (light foundation) and also skin treatment! Isn’t that great? I began my search and found some local online stores that sell BB Cream from Korea. The price is two times cheaper than the store.

But, because I can’t wait anymore to try on the BB Cream, I bought it at Etude House. It was pretty expensive. And the shopkeeper said if I shop for 500k, I can make a membership card which can be used for discount card (10%) and also I’ll get 50% off on my birth month (which is this month!) I will definitely buy that BB Cream again this month

I purchased BB Magic Cream. I’ve been using it now, replacing my daily skin care product from Erha. BB Cream does make my skin face looks brighter and smoother. This is how I apply it : toner – bb cream – powder. I skip Moisturizer because it makes my face looks so oily. It’s good for light make up, can cover my blemish too. It smells so good too And What I don’t like about this BB Cream is there’s not much of color choice That’s it.

I also purchased their cleansing oil. It’s different from my current cleansing oil because it doesn’t make my face so oily and not so dry too. I tried to clean my face before sleep using this cleansing oil, the next morning my face doesn’t look so oily! *keren*

And yes I got my membership card by purchasing these two products. As a reward, I got tons of freebies like that Lee Minho poster, Lee Minho folder, lip gloss, and blue eye shadow. I heard in Singapore they gave you freebies even if you just enter the store! argghhh if I knew that I’d had enter the shop at orchard MRT every time I walked pass it.

And a week after that, I bought their pink nail polish & nail remover The nail remover is great. Doesn’t make my nails dry after applying it. It smells good too!

Next time, I should try Missha bb cream perfect cover.It is more expensive than Etude so I think I’m just gonna order it from online website.
