Harry POTTER!!!

I was looking at the movie time for Transformers for tomorrow as no one wants to watch it with me or they have already watched it with someone.... I found a friend who haven't watch it... Then... I saw HARRY POTTER IS COMING ONSCREEN ON WEDNESDAY!! I was soooo excited... And started to 'drag' everyone to go with me.. ^^ I wanted to watch the premiere~~ But the first premiere would b at 9.30am... I don't wanna struggle from keeping my eyes open and my excitement to wake up that early for the movie.... And I wanted to watch it on the 25 metre cinema.... 12++pm would be the 2nd one.... 3.40 would be the third... As I love to share my excitement with many many friends..... I chose the 3.40 one as all of them would be out of school and work by that time... ^^ I am soooo happy~~ I am gonna watch twice like all others!!!


Without hesitating, I bought all 6 tickets for everyone..... Muahaha~ Why I love Southbank Cinema? Cause its cheap and it has a huge 25 metre screeen~ ^^

Sharon... This would be the first Harry Potter we wouldn't be watching together....... >.<

Homemade Chocoball

Me and Vicki bought this chocolate from the supermarket.. Kinda like Toblerone... But too sweet for us..
So when I was in front of my computer don't remember doing what.. Vicki made this chocolate... Fudge? No.. Dunno what to call it... Kinda like Chocolate Delight.. K lar.. Call it chocolate delight... Dame nice.. Vicki said its for the Chinese Valentines day which was a day ago.. Then we ate them while watching Olympic opening... Haha~ Yes.. This happened last month... After eating them.. Realised its dame nice and I have a whole packet left.. So asked Vicki to teach me how to make them... Since I was going to Ekka with Xiao Yun and Shaun after work the next day...

Ingredients:
Chocolate.. Preferably those type so it would be chewy..
Pure Cream
Rum (I love rum so added that and it taste nicer than Vicki's non-rum ones.. Haha~)
Butter
Chocolate powder

Firstly, heat the 2 pans.. 1 with water and 1 without.. The one without water should be smaller that the one with water.. After pan without water heated up, take it off the fire and put in the chocolates and some chocolate powder..
Then put that pan on top on the one with water.. Like the photo below.. MAKE SURE THE WATER WONT GET INTO YOUR CHOCOLATES!! And DO NOT boil chocolate without having water below unless you wanna burn your kitchen.. =p
Then put a tablespoon of butter into the melted chocolate
Next, put in my favourite flavouring essence... Rum... Just put a bit is good enough.. Maybe half tablespoon? ^^
Then.. Put in some pure cream.. Follow your feeling while you pour it.. But dont pour too much lar~ Haha~ Bit by bit is the safest..
Then stir the mixture until the whole thing wont look like biji biji of sh*ts... But looked like liquid sh*t... Not too liquid 0o! ^^" Okie.. Shouldn't make it sound so awful..
Line a piece of baking paper on your baking tray.. Preferably squared.. Then pour the mixture onto the baking paper..
The whole later shudn't be too thick... Just thin layer will be nice.. ^^ Then put it into the fridge until it hardens.. Not freezer ya.... Be patient...
Once it harden.. Take it out from the fridge.. Sprinkle lots of chocolate powder on top of it.... And start shakin~ Yeap... Shaking.... Shake the tray and your body if you wanna have some exercise.. Make sure the bottom part also filled with the powder... Then, make it into desired shapes.. Cut them into square and make sure your cut pieces are also powdered with powder.. You wanna make it into balls? Just do it like how you play with playing dough when you were kids.. Roll them in your palms, then powder them with the powder...
Tadaaa~ Your own homemade chocolate delight~ Nice valentines gift hor? ^^"

Chocolate Festival

Okie.. Let me start on my Chocolate Festival... Hehe~ Yeah~ Mine~ Cause I organised it~ LoL~ No larr~ Just because I love chocolate I no such 'call-e' to organise such interesting event.. LoL~ Xiao Yun, Shaun and I 'dated' to go to the chocolate festival ages ago and its here~ So we decided to go on Saturday... Okie.. Went there.. Nothing.. =.=" Just some Jazz music performance... LoL~ We were so pissed... But I did get to take lotsa nice photos on our way back in the Citycat.. Nice mou???

Okie.. Don't expect too much.. Its phone quality... Should praise me for such nice photos with a handphone.. :P

We had such a beh-song day so we decided to have a good meal in WAH.. A korean restaurant.. Unfortunately I didn't really enjoy the meal there cause they had actually changed chef and owner.. =.=" Prefer the old stingy owner.. Food tasted better..

The kimchi fried rice and seafood fried rice didn't taste right.. Rice was too sticky... Felt that my home made kimchi fried rice tasted better... LoL~ Okie.. I am too bossy.. :P

LoL~ At the end, we went again to the festival on Sunday.. For a chocolate lover like me.. Cant just give up on the chocolates right? ^^ We took the bus there like Saturday.. And on our way to the festival.. There were HUGE, GIGANTIC, ENORMOUS, LARGE pelicans around the jetty.. FYI.. We were walking along Brisbane river to the festival venue..That... Down there... Xiao Yun holding is mashmellow dipped with chili chocolate.. No.. I didn't taste it.. Cause I know it will taste weird and I wont like it and I don't even like to eat chili.. LoL~ Shaun fell into our trap though.. LoL~ There were LOTSSS of pretty decorations of chocolate gifts in this stall.. But I took this photo curi-ly.. They didn't welcome photographers like me.. LoL~ Scared we will steal their idea maybe?
Yesss..... This is the chocolate fondue that all chocolate lovers would surely adoreeee... ^^ And it was 50cents per strawberry... Oh my.. How I wish I could just lick from the fondue.. LoL~ Yeah.. We bought 12 stawberries... 4 for each of us.. Haha~ 2 whites, 3 milk and 8 darks... LoL~ They accidentally gave us 1 more~ ^^" Well.. At the end.. We couldnt finish them.. But thanks to Xiao Yun and Shaun on trying to clear em up~ LoL~Chocolate fudge store~ I bought one rum and raisin dark chocolate fudge.. But it didn't taste as nice as the one I had in Adelaide last year.. Sigh.. Missed it so much... Ying.. Please bring some for me~~Okie.. We are definitely having a happy, chocolaty, fattening and satisfying Sunday... Well... Its worth it~ You could see it from our happy and satisfied faces.. (Although Shaun looks kinda like a stranger who shouldn't be in the photo..) LoL~

After chocs, we went to Indoorooo and watched Mama Mia.. LoL~ Was too early for dinner... But after the movie.. It was kinda too late..

After movie, it was already about 8.30pm.. We went to Mindoro for dinner.. Because it will close down for good the next day.. We rushed there to have our last meal in Mindoro.. Xiao Yun never been to this Philipino-Spanish Restaurant before even though she had been passing by Mindoro for few years.. Haha~ And she regretted.. Cause the food was dameeeeeeeeee delicious~ Haha~ I had been there few times.. But of course.. No regrets even though too rush.. LoL~

Drove 500++km in 1 Day? (Part 3)

18 July 2008 (Part III)

Okie.. This is the interesting part that some of you are more interested in.. The icebar... It's called Minus Five Degree Ice Lounge.. Okie.. I just call it -5 degree... =.=" So ma fan to call the whole name.. LoL~ Its called minus five degree cause its really negative five degree inside.. Didn't really feel that its that cold though.. LoL~ But it is a very very interesting experience... Everything in there is made of ice... Even the sculpture and the glasses~ We met one angmoh who actually ate the iced glass.. LoL~ And we were dame lucky that their camera was not functioning so we were able to camwhore inside.. Normally you can't do that.. Normally we had to use their camera and taking 3 photos would cost you I think AUD5? =.=" That's not enough for a blogger and a cam-freak like me... LoL~ Plus.. The entrance fee is already AUD30 per head.. Unless you don't have a head la... Then it would be free I guess.. ^^ AUD30 includes the jacket, gloves and uggboots..
I super love this photo taken by Jess... I look naughteii... And cheekeii... LoL~
Me and the Angmoh who ate the ice glass
The threesome with me holding cam..Taken curi-ly.. LoL~ That time haven't been informed about their 'corrupted' cam..
Me and my iced glass of vodka.. =.=" I think they put 1% of vodka only... No alcohol taste..
Our group photo plus the gwei lou bartender.. LoL~
Me and Jess.. Inside too cold have to hug together.. LoL~ And I love this photo~
Me and the dunno what.. I think its some type of bird..
Me and the wishing well sculture.. Really got money inside tuhh!
Ian, Joseph and me with the devil liked ice sculpture..

Pretty wall aquarium~
At last one proper group photo without kelefe... ^^
