The first week of uni was quite okay. The first biology practical class was a bit challenging because I had to learn how to use high tech apparatus. New kind of pippettes and the other one I forgot what its name. They said these are more accurate and easier to use, but it's always hard for the first time. The lab was big and we were divided into 6 groups ( about 20 people per group). Each group had a demonstrater to teach us. They even have a few types of dustbins for different types of rubbish like normal rubbish, harzardous waste, contaminated objects and waste solutions. Pengsan...
Went to Preston market this morning. Auntie took me to the cheapest meat stall. Next moment, I was thinking "oops... how much do I need?" To be on the safe side, I tried 0.5kg first. So I bought chicken breast and drumstick 0.5kg each. Then we went to a chinese grocery store. I was so happy to see the light blue Ayam Brand tuna, which I always eat at home, so I bought 4 of them. The $0.99 tuna wasn't very nice as there's only tuna chucks and I had to add mayonaise myself.
I bought a $2 whole cabbage. I accidentally gave $1 coin to the lady. So malu... Must remember $2 is the smallest one. Haven't get used to the Aussie money yet. Poppy said some things like tomato and potatoe cost only $1 after 12pm, but I didn't buy it because don't know how to cook them.
Tonight's menu: Tomato Fried Meehoon. The product was satisfying, just that put too much water and so not enough tomato taste. I was stunned when I saw "mix with 1/2 bowl of water". What kind of bowl? @@ I was always guided whenever I cooked. Siew Li taught me how to smack the garlic and auntie boiled the meehoon for me, which I'd forgotten that I need to do that. So tiring when frying the meehoon.
I didn't expect it to be mountain size. This can tahan for 3 dinners again. Hehe.... Auntie saw me cooked until so successful, she gave me 2 lemon chicken wings as a reward. The fried thing there is made by Poppy. It tasted the same as the Malay version.
Big accomplishment.
