Life as an exchange student Part1

Something happened today which inspired me to start this topic.....

Living aboard in a foreign country means that you got to be independent and be willing to try out new things. Take for example, cooking.

Cooking is a love-hate affair. I have never cooked on my life, so this few week has been the experimentation period. I would said i have more or less perfected my rice (ps:i am not using a rice cooker). And i tried cooking fried noodles even though my mom have not taught me before. Curry pork was my boldest experiment. Although i bought the ready made powder from ICA (supermart), i tried to vary the taste by coming out with a sweet and also a sour verison. Well, perhaps the curry pork didnt turn out to suit everyone's taste, but i thought the sour version was nice. It resembles Malay Asam. Anyway, while i am writing this entry, i am actually boiling porridge for supper. Hopefully it turns out well. Its my first time.

And i shall tell you why i am inspired to write this entry...

Washing cloth was not new to me, since i stayed in the hall for 3 years. And this machine in my apartment has a program for wool clothings. Although i knew wool cloth should be dry cleaned, i decided to trust the machine. So i happily threw in my S$56 100% wool sweater into the washing machine on sunday.

I was feeling cold just now and i decided to pile emyself up. And to my horror, my S size sweater has shrinked to XXS.

What a costly experiement! And goodbye to my sweater. I dun wan to be seen with my belly button.

And now off to see my porridge.....
