An Evening with Curtis Stone

Though I was meant to publish this ..AGES ago.
Oh gosh. Thinking about it still makes me feel so hyper XD lol
but yessss.. ehehe. He makes me blush =p
But really that night was soooooooo goood. Well, though we only got in at 8, though it said to BE THERE at 7. And Curtis only appeared at 8.30, still. Ah~ bliss.
He's SOO cute in real life. And NO rina, he doesn't touch up his face on screen! He looks exactly the sameee..in fact he even looks CUTER in real life come to think about it. But then still same cute face. Same cute smile, same cute body. *Starts to drool*
He demonstrated how to cook crab meat pasta, well it was some type of pasta that was being served with chicken to us for our dinner, and though we didn't get to TRY try what he cooked on the spot; the heavenly smells alone were enough to leave you wanting more (both of him and the food).

Oh!!! And I even got to HUG him! *smiles exuberantly* Sadly, Dad didn't take the photo cos he was looking through his other photos..but yeah! =D made my century.


Me and Mom at the start

Registration/Waiting Area



If only I could take home the backdrop..

The Tantalizing menu which he set out

And now..presenting..Curtis Stonee himself

Curtis and MC Sonia. She makes me want to be a MC myself.

Followed by his demonstration of pasta with crabmeat~

Aren't his hands just so soft and smooth..

(either than him of course)


Curtis dancing away with the saucepan


So up close..yet all I get was his back. And I asked him a question myself, "What's the most embarassing thing you've ever done?" Ehehe. So cheeky. But SADLY, unlike all the OTHER people who asked him questions, he WALKED away from me..to go back to the center of the stage! Broke my heart. He wanted to act out what happened to him and needed the stage area. Sighs. But FIRST step to being noticed accomplished =)

D is for Delicious:

Salad of Grilled Portobello Mushrooms topped with
Ricotta and Semi Dried Tomatoes

Skewered Shrimps Marinated with
Garlic, Olive Oil and Lemon

Homemade Tagliatelle with Tomatoes
and Roasted Chicken Breast

Chocolate Cheese Cake

Come the best part- AUTOGRAPH sessions =D


Anxiously waiting in line





Picture Perfect Polaroid

And look how he autographed others' books! Notice he's NOT smiling as much! Maybe he's tired after writing the same message a hundred+ times, but I like to think otherwise =D and then I noticed, as I approached, suddenly he began hugging-ish everyone! And I was like 'Oooh! He's hinting something!!' XD A girl can only dream right?



A picture's worth a thousand words. His smile's worth a million. One of the nights that's implanted in my memory forever, it truly was a sensational night. One definitely to remember.

Tan Sri Loy Scholarship

SCHOLARSHIP DAY!! =D wheee. RM5,000. whee. Yes Ming, I know you got FULL.. -_-" don't rub it in. but hey. 5k's still a lot. esp when I'm so poor.. =( ahah but anyways. super lame. Stuck inside a MPH from 1-4pm. That's 3 WHOLE hours without being able to escape and always told to "pay attention" to speeches promoting taylor's =_="! thankgoodness they were decent enough to provide tea after. =) but here's the pics emmelinne. Btw. excuse the spelling if it's wrong. I'm super lazy to run to my bed to check the award list..so i'm spelling it by instict ^^"

| Victorious Day |

Guess whatt!! =D My doggie (the stupendous Vicky) [See Vic. It's not exactly same spelling as yours! Yours is "Viccie"!! =p ] is FINALLY eating again. Wonderful miracle. Euthanasia does NOT need to be carried out. PHEW.

Yes she was terminally ill. Well not REALLY. In my opinion she's still strong as hell. But she got a seriously bad ear infection, (one that has been ongoing for 5 years now) which caused her WHOLE left ear to be chopped off ><"! I know. The poor thing..but hey! She's still alive!
And then, her hip bones're apparently giving way, and she can't walk as she did before. In fact now she starts to limp..but then again what would you expect for a dog of 17! Or maybe she's 16. Not too sure actually. Mom insists she's 17, but I still find it hard to believe she's older than me -_-"!
But yes. A victorious day indeed.

Ironically though, we just finished digging up the hole for her burial yesterday.. ^^"
Miracles really do happen =)

The Other Contest

Lol. Well by right I should have wrote this post like last week..but you know me..procrastinate =D but but I entered some random contest online..and I won 2 tickets to Nim's Island XD ya know..I think entering contests is now my hobby! But yes. Should tell the world =D

And thenn!! Mom's name appeared on the Astro website too! =D



Ah yes. And a valuable lesson was learned too. ALWAYS check junk mail XD you never know who might've just sent you mail! =p

Horribly Sick. Ha-Choo.

By the way, right now I'm sitting at home stupendously unbelievably sick. So tired. Yet I'm sick of sleeping. Hard to believe.

Gotta go back for the Euclid Waterloo Canadian Math Competition though. Sighs. Actually starting to regret taking it. I just realised..I'm going to be sitting in that ONE chair looking at the SAME math paper..for 2 1/2 hours. And if I can't do it.. then I'm going to be staring at that ONE QUESTION banging my head and envying those people who are still writing-suggests they know the solution =.="

So..wish me luck y'all. =)

Action. Hair. Cut.

So. As I wrote a whole funny story to rina..(I can't actually remember it now though) I had yet another quite devastating incident at the hairdressers. This is why ever since the age of 10, hairdressers do indeed traumatise me.

So. I go there and they all speak Chinese. sigh. Another hint in life telling me to improve my chinese. So I tell her I want to cut my hair "zein" and I show her where I want my hair to be in frontt..
Then..suddenly she asked me "tein?" and she held up her hair. And btw her hair was big big curly. And super long. And I was thinking...how you going to CUT my hair..and make it as long as yours?! -_-" ...then my senses came to me and i saw she meant CURL. ><" so yes. another canton word learned. "tein"= perm. So action began and the scissors was dangerously taken into action. Cut cut cut snip snip snip..and fyi with my eyesight being so terrible..I couldn't really SEE how much she was cutting. then some of my hair that she cut fell onto the chair next to my hand. I picked it up..and I saw 3 WHOLE BLOODY inches. I only wanted 1inch cut! And in my mind I was like O__________O shit. "Just close your eyes kimberleyy..don't worryy.. you can't tell her to stop now. Then you'd have one side long one side short..." But in the end it actually turned out niceee ya know! XD Rina said I looked cuterr..then then, Kath, Yun Yee, Audrey, and Sherene said I looked better. =D Wheee. Only thing..Shu Xian didn't even notice it was cut -_-" then again. She's Shu Xian. Someone who's actually BLURer than me! lol So here are picss i took right after my haircut on sunday..judge them =P
