Sanji

First thing when I saw this version of Sanji cosplayed by Kaname in Anime Festival Asia (AFA) 2011 in Singapore I was like....

 "I wanna see him getting nosebleed!" Ahahaha! I guess once in awhile it's good to see Kaname nosebleed rather than the other way around right? :D

New World One Piece: Nami (by Usagi) and Sanji (by Kaname). Both of them look awesome!
Photo taken from ValeforHo, please go to her site!


YesH, I wanna see him like tat! :3 Sanji got nosebleed just from looking at Nami!

Wish I can cosplay with Kaname and Usagi one day... it's every cosplayers' dream! :X (aiks, I'm only speaking for myself, please don't hit me)

FYI, I didn't go to AFA, I'm stuck with a mission in Oxford at the moment. Currently facing a tough battle with a creature that looks like a horrible assignment right now ^^"

Ultimate Pocky Day 11.11.11

It's 11.11.11~! A special calendar year, it'll  never occur again! (at least not in my lifetime ;p)

So how did I celebrate it? With FOOD of coz~! It is the Ultimate Pocky Day~! This requires a massive eating of pockies~!!!! I cant find pocky here so I'll make do with MIKADO instead. Ok I confess, I had been eating mikado for supper a day earlier.   

Pocky feast! 

Today, the first thing I did when I woke up is - munch on a pocky! bcoz the leftover from last night is just bside my bed... so unhealthy :X

That's not enough to fill my stomach of course, so I prepared a proper breakfast before going for classes. 

TaDa~~~~

Pockies again! With bread, hotdogs and cheese~! Yum yum! 
I'll call this 'Triple 11.11.11' breakfast lunch~!!!! *i woke up late*
  

Yes I ate the pockies with bread. It was delicious~!!!!!



 My new recipe~! YAY!

 Then the hotdogs should be eaten like this.

Hotdogwich :D

Moena's facts~ 
1) Pocky was branded as Mikado here, but they're both from glico. 
2) November 11th is also known as 'Remembrance Day' or 'Poppy Day', sounds like Pocky right? 
3) Google obviously celebrate Remembrance Day instead of Pocky Day: 


I see people wear this poppy flower on their chest as a sign of remembrance of the official ending of World War I, 'to remember the members of their armed forces who have died in the line of duty.' - (Wikipedia). 
People are more solemn today, I feel guilty being so cheerful (as always) while eating my pocky today >.<

Here's some amazing ads of pocky / mikado :D

Edgar showed me this one 

They make eating pocky seems so cool! 

わかいね~!  



hetalia version O.O

あなたも私もポッキー!!!!

Everybody! POCKY!!!!

Tribute To Tinkerbella

My hamster passed away...2 days ago
(i just found out now from my sis >.<)


Kush Kush.... did you come to oxford to visit me before you go up to heaven? I miss you... I thought i can still make it back in time to see u in Christmas, i guess it's time.

It's been 2 yrs,

I love you, even though I am not your first owner, but the time I spent with you had made you so special in my heart...You are so smart and so adventurous, I love it when u're being so cute in your own unique way. You always got me worried whenever you escape from your cage and eventually came back looking for me after a few days, you know where i would be waiting, I like how you tug my toes to tell me you're hungry. I know you love chinese pork buns. I always shared some of them with you. I hope these 2 years you had fun with me and my family too. I'm so sorry I'm not there for you during the transition.





The fun times and naughty times


You're an awesome ham ham to me... I miss u kush kush....

Goodbye Tinkerbella Lipman Liew. Wait for me in Heaven!

~With Love~

Stay Happy (Life is...Music?)

Two hours ago I was standing in the night streets of Oxford, freezing, tired and alone. I really wanted someone to talk to, to make me feel warm. I tried to call someone but I was rejected because of time zone, someone was still sleeping on the other side. I was sad of course! 

10pm felt really dark during an autumn night. I was waiting for my bus to go home which is will be here only after 30 mins. It was quite dark around the bus stop. I tilted my head up to look at those old buildings, wondering to myself if there are any Gargoyles or Vampires in this aged city. 

Gargoyles can easily mask themselves on top of buildings around Oxford!

Not exactly scary coz he sparkles! 

I was really sad and lonely. But Moena have to grow up soon enough, I must learn how to be independent...
*gulps*

So MUSIC flowed into my mind, it played to cheer me up. Sounds of the crowds cheering and voices of young artists singing on stage. I felt no longer that emotional or sad. I shall try to learn more about music, and why it's so important to the person who rejected my call earlier =.=

Anyways, this shall mark my new interest in knowing music a bit more.


- Music Inspired -

Now I if you pardon me, I still have 2 pages of assignment to write @_@" 
I'm not sleeping again tonight... how come I feel like I'm the vampire?! :D

おやすみ!

+ Happy Halloween Everyone +


This year? My course mates were all not in the mood of celebrating due to our scary presentation this coming Tues and our very packed study schedule ate up most of our time. Many things for me to do too! So, this is how I'm celebrating my Halloween - At Halloween Town~! 

On my arrival, I noticed my appearance were slightly altered. I had a weird hair accessory, a pair of wings, and some razor sharp teeth!!! RAWR! Let me suck your blood! XD

I met up with Zero and Donald, they joined my party immediately~ We went around exploring and made friends with some Heartless! They said it's Halloween, their very special day so please don't whack them on this day~! 

Aww... alright then, I'll pass the message to Sora and Goofy! 

Well, what shall we do then? Oh yeah, let go trick-or-treat at Jack & Sally's House!

Let's hope there's some pumpkin soup there~! I'm starving~!

- - - - - - - -

Treats I got from my Japanese friend Kanan~! They're all so delicious! Especially the mochi with peanut coated layer! Yum yum! Arigatou!

C'ya guys~! Hope you had fun during Halloween too!

~ Worm Attacking Facebook ~

Oh no! Worms seem to be invading Facebook!!! 

Help! My friends were turned into worms!!!!

I can't believe this!!! O.O

So colourful eh?

I found it kinda cute.... but worms aren't supposed to be cute! :P

They should be scary!!! Like this >v<

My Matryoshka Anago!
There is a reason for this colour :)

I've been wormed too! Have you?

___________________________________________
P.S. These wormies should bee called eel instead because 'anago' means salt-water eels ^^" 
Oh, you wanna create your own anago? But don't know how? Here's the link to anago maker: http://anago.crap.jp/ 

I wonder how long will we be infected? Someone please cast CURE!

ღ Cooking Time ღ Pesto Pasta & Mashed Potatoes

I have never cook pesto pasta before so I don't really know the correct method. BUT! I have youtube as my Sensei! XD 

Here's how I do it, the lazy way! XD

Pesto Pasta:
  1. Cook spaghetti and rinse away the water.
  2. Cook the pesto sauce (chopped garlic, green pepper, ready mix tesco pesto sauce, mashed potato, 2 slices of cheese, black pepper, salt, vinegar, a little sugar).
  3. Rinse the pasta, then add olive oil to prevent it from sticking.
  4. When the sauce is ready, put the pasta onto the sauce in the pan to stir+fry a bit. 
  5. Serve on raw lettuce. Done!
I actually mixed the ingredients from a few videos and also cheated by using ready made pesto sauce :P

WalA~

Bon apetite~! I already ate halfway before I remember to take any pic :X

Oh yea, forgot to put my mashed potato recipe. Here it is:

Mashed Potatoes:
  1. Peel potatoes (lots of them!)
  2. Cut into small size, about 1.5cm X 2cm X 2cm (don't need to be exact)
  3. Boil them for 15-20 mins~ until they are all very very soft!
  4. Rinse the water, then smashed them properly. Use beater if you have one. I don't, so I wasted my 20 mins smashing it with a fork.
  5. Put them back into the pot, add a bit of the rinsed water to cook it smoother. 
  6. Add butter, about 3 big spoons (depends on how many potatoes you have, I had about 700g potatoes)
  7. Add Sour Cream. I bought it for £1 at Saintsbury's. You can use normal cream if you don't like sour stuffs. Cook with low to medium flame
  8. Add 2 slices of cheddar cheese. Parmesan cheese would do too.
  9. Add salt.
  10. Add chicken/vegetable stock, 1/4 cube would do. Keep stirring and adding water to make sure it's smooth. Done!!!  

I cooked a lot of mashed potatoes and pesto pasta to keep in the fridge. I can eat it anytime or just bring as bento to sch~ The mashed potatoes can be eaten cold, I'm having it as dessert sometimes, just like any ice-cream! 

Have fun Cooking~! (-^∀°-)
