It&#8217;s hot. It&#8217;s sunny. But before that, it&#8217;s dark clouds. I hoped for rain, but it didn&#8217;t. Maybe, I have lost all hope? No!<\/p>\n<p>Well, woke up quite early this morning. 8 to be exact. Just had this sushi thing in my mind. Had to make sushi! I bought all the necessary ingredients. Made 3 rolls using 2 cups of rice, and some crab meat and mayo.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe, I should stop wasting food and stop making sushi. No body wants to eat them anyway. But I just enjoy making them. But not all knows how to appreciate how things are done. Most people just put food into their mouth. If it&#8217;s nice, they swallow it. If it&#8217;s not, they spit it out. It&#8217;s that simple. But who will care how things are done? Who will know that, in the early 1980s, those hawkers selling laksa used earthworms (yes, those little things that you can find in the soil) to preserve their gravy?? Who will know that, in order to make certain nice wine, they employed people to mash up the grapes using their legs, or collected their saliva and use it to break down the starch in the grapes?<\/p>\n<p>Sigh&#8230; They just eat, and eat, and eat&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Maybe, the food I prepared is not that nice after all. Not appetizing. Not delicious. But I have improved. Lots. From lousy sushi to standard-looking ones.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5277\" title=\"16012005_img1\" src=\"http:\/\/belief.hazelcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/01\/16012005_img1.jpg\" alt=\"16012005_img1\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/belief.hazelcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/01\/16012005_img1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/belief.hazelcafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2005\/01\/16012005_img1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>Never mind. I shall eat them all! The leftovers? Throw, what else. I really should stop wasting food, but I have no choice.<\/p>\n<p>After bball, Dennis allowed me to drive his car! Wow! Toyota Vios! Just got it 3 days ago! Nice car. Easy to drive too. It took me only gear one to get the hang of things, and those stored information came loading into memory. Signal, lane change, gear change, speed regulation, blind spots, everything, except 1: stop before stop line. Great feeling! Ich danke Dennis! If only I own one&#8230; or my family owns one&#8230; that will be&#8230; great, I guess.<\/p>\n<p>And now, I cannot say that I have not been driving for 1 year! Aw&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>But then, taking the bus isn&#8217;t that bad after all. Sceneries to see, time to sleep, air-con to enjoy, and people to look at. Although it&#8217;s not as fast, it&#8217;s acceptable. I always take my own sweet time to go home, wasting time here and there.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow&#8217;s Monday, another 6am day! But it&#8217;s not that bad actually. If timing&#8217;s right, I get to meet Junwei, my primary school classmate, everyday. He&#8217;s on his way to camp, and I, on my way to school. If I drive to school, I will wake up at 6.30am instead! If I am being driven to school, I will wake up at the same time. But then, having someone to drive you to school does fail sometimes&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I remember stating some theory somewhere, but I have forgotten. Did I?<\/p>\n<p>Never mind.<\/p>\n<p>Right hand aching. Did too much stunts I guess. Ouch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok, went for bball session. It&#8217;s hot.
