hallo again.

havent been blogging lately. must be the unattractive thought from too many photos to sort through... and as someone said before, 'live the moment' rather than taking photos for memory. i begged to differ but i think im slowly living the moment more. maybe i have lived those moments before...so to look at it again is rather repetitive. but some moments are meant to be re-lived again. hmm ok i sound gibberish. ahaha.

ok no link to what i said previously. heres some highlights of my belgium trip 060407-090407 (ups and downs)
brussels:

The old skool waffle van. I wish this was my Yellow School Bus. (:

there must be some magic in this dough. cuz it tastes nothing like the singapore waffles. its like caramelised dough or smt.1.50 euros worth it siah.

toast to madeinbelgium waffles!


this cool creeper that crept nicely onto the wall.

i love looking for tin tin walls(among several other comic walls that comes as a kinder suprise pop out fr nowhere)..this is one of the better ones..with a realy good setting

i want my transport to look this wicked.

old skool smurf from country of origin! la la lalala, lalalala~

the friggin huge bowl of mussels(YAYS!) which i had part of the set course (free rose beer, fries and apple crumble) fr the frigging cheaterbug cheat my money bad service brussels touristy restaurant. Promised 14 euros then later charge at 20euros. somemore manager give lame reason "cuz u take so long to order" what crap. so pissed i threw mussel shells onto the floor. and the napkin too. LOL. Daniel, rem to post their photo on net and warn ppl!

"I'd rather hear a dog bark at a crow than hear a man swears he loves me."
- kopped this from janice. liked the sound of it.


ohmygawd.i made chicken rice!(fr the chicken rice paste i brought fr sg..i mus say i had the forsight ahah) used my ah ma/mummy's homemade chang chu la.. and courtesy of chengwei's mum's chicken rice chilli. Lekker! Sedap! YummY!


This is what they call "Thick fat greasy fries".

after eating all the overpriced frites in belgium, i (had the craving) and decided to make my own frites from dutchkantang!complete with mayo! too bad i scalded my hand with the spattering oil. The price to pay for happy comfort food (:

made one of those singapore childhood/old school tidbit pack for my dutch grpmates and friends for easter(thanks sis for helping me buy n lugging all the way here!)


so far, white rabbit sweet, apollo chocolate wafer, mamee, wang wang potato ball went down well with them.

hawflakes are strangest to them(just like liquorice to me)

qn 1: guess which went down the best with them?


"...it tastes just like chips..."
qn 2: who do you think truly appreciated mamee?

easteratbelgium

back from belgium!
as u can see, im getting too lazy to post any photos or comments about it. (after the last conscientious entries on spain)

i shall attempt to summarise my belgium trip in a(long)sentence.

brussels(too touristy - blahh), brugg(nice but quiet - but can go), ghent(lovely; old and new, my fave), antwerp (good for shopping only) and metros and trams are FREE!

lol.

remind me to complain about our bad dinner experience at brussels!

feels like home

yesterday i heard some grass cutters mowing the field just outside my apartment.
the sound was so familiar.
felt like im back in clementi.
lol.
