Lesson learned: Never ask Umi berapa banyak kunyit nak letak..

9th March 2025,

it's Rachel's birthday today, member tengah syok tidur aku pulerk tengah bersantai lepas balun Koko krunch, and masak lauk sahur.


Macam awkward to write after so long I didn't write here, but I think I need a comeback, Raihana has been missing for so so long 😵‍💫! But to tell I've been living my life quite fullest la juga; I learned, I worked, I cooked, I explored places with my family and dated most of my closest friends from university since I graduated. It's already puasa day 8 dah,, and proudly nak flex aku kot yang masak buka skang, bkan mak aku HAHAHAHAH 😎 nasib je la tak snap hari2 sebab tahu2 dah licin but I cooked sizzling, macaroni cheese, sardin kuah tomato cili api, spaghetti masak lemak cili apii kahkah 


Currently it's 1:39 am and I just cooked some lauk bersahur. I think the recipe is quite simple that I want to keep it for my husband later hahahaha. 


Udang Kertas Goreng Kunyit



Sorry la ni snap masa berasap-asap dalam kuali hshshs sekian. 


So first, defrost your udang kertas dulu, perhaps rendam dalam air so it cud mempercepatkan proses untuk the udang to cair. Lepas dah cair, just basuh beberapa kali, orang Jawa kata 'unyel-unyel' dengan tangan, then letak like (1) half tablespoon of kunyit, and (2) 2 teaspoon of salt. Gaulkan. 


Sebenarnya we tadi mak aku cakap 1 tablespoon kunyit turned out benda ni rasa kunyit sangat weh mungkin udang aku yang tak banyak like cuma 1 pinggan klasik Daia je so aku roger korang untuk letak half je okie 😌. Konfiden je Umi. 


Lepas dah gaul tadi udang2 tu dengan kunyit & garam, you take out your chopping board and prep your saute regime; (3) slice halus half bawang merah size besar, 3 ulas bawang putih & 2 hiris halia saiz ibu jari korang dengan like 3mm thick. - so bila ada 2 hiris, means ada 2 kepingan halia yang lebar mcm lebih kurang ibu jari, panjang pun lebih kurang ibu jari and the thickness is 3mm each equivalent 6mm la untuk both tebal. 

Biarkan bawang merah tadi as it is and tumbukkan bawang putih & halia dalam lesung batu. 


Then nak tumis, trust me I'm a good cook, aku anak sulong kot - tuang minyak masak dalam 3 sudu besar (jangan banyak2!). Lepastu, masa nak saute/ tumis tu, masukkan bawang merah dulu sebab bawang merah ni lambat hangus, and sepanjang dia chill dalam minyak masak yang dah panas tu, dia akan keluarkan rasa manissss. So agak2 dia dah ada dua tiga helai dah caramelized (kaler chocolate nak hangus),, baru masukkan bawang putih dengan halia dah tumbuk tadi. 


Gaul sampai naik bau, masukkan udang korang and gaul sampai dia masak! Siap!

 Saturday,  I have 2 sketches to be done before Monday, pop presentation as always. 1 A3 climate sketch for Land, Site & Survey (LSS) and a few quick sketches for Design, because Dr Sufian is longing for our presentation I guess, hence he decided to have a pinboard presentation this Monday. :) As for LSS, let me tell you; I don't understand even a thing of what I need to do. We have foreigners in our group thus everyone is speaking to make the students feel welcomed- and I don't blame anyone for that. The only problem it's just they are not using a very proper English, so I'm quite in confusion :') The more I read the messages, the stupider I become. I think I need to do a bit of research myself so my group mates won't notice my existence if I come up to ask them silly questions.   I'm home everyone, eventhough next week will be the last week of lecture before the mid sem break starts. We had tomyam for dinner, and this is once in a blue moon event; I do...

Chapter 1:

 2nd May 2023, Tuesday.  It was class time and I had to go to the toilet. I suddenly noticed my best friend's text while I was doing my job in the boring and mundane cubicle, asking me to help her create a letter for her lecturers due to her absence. Her grandmother was very ill that she needed to extend her stay in Singapore.  I am that one who loves to disappear during class time. Not because I don't like certain classes, but because I am easily get distracted. I need fresh air and some sunlight to recharge my focus so I could pass this hell-journey course. So I was planning to sit somewhere, KAED level 2 corridor might sounds good as it is facing the courtyard, the height somehow brings me to nature in a comfortable distance, with the morning ray casted and filtered by 2 levels above - makes the temperature at the corridor is as cozy to be stayed for a quite of time.  To the corridor I went and seated, crossing my leg and started to think of formal words to be wri...

As reckless as I could.

 26 October 2022, padre's birthday. \\ It's vital for you to turn on Peterpan's Mungkin Nanti before indulging into this entry// Currently having my time, though I have tons to be think of; 1. Heritage, since I am one of the group leaders. It's never sounds easy to handle 25 people to go oversea ya know. 2. Design, I did some research about our upcoming furniture project for RnR before asr today and cant wait to vomit the idea on butter paper trrow. And 1 last thing is the stupid folder I need to prepare for Journalism Club (clap hands everyone) for we'll be having a workshop soon this Saturday but I'm planning to ask the program manager trrow night, REHEARSAL.  I know I often prioritize my schedule but there's always reason why things were so better back then., maybe because I wrote a lot. So indeed I am here because I am in need of this, I have to write this story.  From my previous post where I spilled there was this one guy who likes me, now let me tell ...
