GERMAN BBQ RAWKS (too bad for those who did not turn up)

Yoyo... finally I got the chance to blog finally. the German BBQ on last Saturday was simply SUPERB? :)

i wanted to actually arrive early at the school so that i can like, submit my late report. Just a misnomer: Offices are closed on Weekends. Screw that right?

Well, the rendezvous with Udo und Marlene was not too bad, considering we had like, er, quite a detour kind of walk to reach the carpark. on the way we were discussing about the BBQ later on and how .... Strange we would become meeting up with pure Germans. We waited and waited, but Marlene said that we won't be meeting Frau Lian in School, so we squatted along the kerb and waited for the bus to ARRIVE. it began to rain lightly --> HEAVILY till we boarded up the bus. We guessed what the outcome of the BBQ is going to look like, :)

I got my 1st culture shock when i saw groups of blonds for the 1st time conjugating together. Then when we boarded up the bus, we had to INTRODUCE OURSELF for the 1st time!

I was glad Marlene shouted for us on the bus:
"I'm Marlene and he's Moritz, and he is Udo. ... ... ..."

Man, I can't forget how retarded we looked at the rear seats facing the rest of them... soooooo awkard...

Then when we reached the park @ Pasir Ris, rain stopped, but it was still wet everywhere. LOLs how are we going to set up a fire in the pit? Marlene was then acting like a possessed woman; she kept playing the annoying [I can give you Gatsby] advertisement song.... man Udo was like sooooooooo irritated then. We then proceeded to the beach to catch few puffs of fresh crisp air, but then this infestation of male mosquitoes came hovering above the shore. We observed minute hermits mating on the lone rock on the sands [so small its like no larger than a grain of sand] when they crawled over each other and stayed still for what seemed like a LOOOOOOOOng time. When the male mozzies infestation became so bad that they kept flying into us, we freaked out and ran to 'safety'. i told Marlene the mosquitoes are harmless, and they do not bite at all, but she still went on to apply medicated oil over her legs etc... Udo was like:

''I'm very hungry already... is the food ready... have they started?"

I told him that he was impatient.

rock on the sands with minerals in it

THOSE BLACKISH LUMPS ARE THE HERMITS











Can You believe this is a sedimentationf flowing towards the sea?








then the games started playing WACKO in small groups...Marlene und Udo wanted to come with me together as a group, but we were ''caught in the act'' and so we remained separated... :(
I remambered a few Names, mainly Anna, Joanna, Patrick, Felix, Laura, Simmon, Wilson, Carolyn und Friedrich... it was quite fun although i was being WACKED a few times and sabo-ed when i did not react fast enough.

After that, some people came and then started the fire for us... i believe they are hired to help us start the fire since they look neither like students nor tutors. i hand in to them as they are able to make a VERY HEARTY fire. after that we were SNATCHING THE FOOD.... joking...haha we were eating happily, and there were:
1. Franfurter Wurstchen [JUICY]
2. Kartoffeln mit Apfel salat [APPETIZING]
3. Rindersteak [which we did not eat at all]
4.Bratfisch [very flvourful]
5. Obst [we only ate the Apfel before they were snatched up]
6. Otah [palatable]
7. Rice with raisins and veggies in it
8. Satay & Ketupat [the usual oriental]
9. Hanchen wings
10. Maize


Even though we only ate afew types of food that day , we were quite happy as it is like... with Frau Lian that met us in the Park. She brought her baby daughter to show off, and we were sure she looked SchÖn. Another friendly gathering. then Marlene wanted to take a SCANDAL PHOTO with me. I freaked out when she suddenly touched my face [I got the shruggy-feeling]... and did the ... you know, the Anime type pose... i was then Emotionally scarred for the very 1st time! she was still like, craving for MOREMOREMORE.... i guess i am too cute... :)







I AM SOO GOING TO SWENSENS'

After that we went to MacDonalds's after they dropped us off the NYP carparks. we ate Strawberry sundae together and ...... I PERSUADED MARLENE TO BUT MADONNA'S HARD CANDY ALBUM [$17.90]!!!!!!!! YES! she said that the music was not below her expectation of MADONNA..... i wonder when the next compilation come out... I'll DEFINITELY buy it...

abit disappointed as i was overly confident...
anyway i had lot of fun during the post exam period...

1. MAKING ICE CREAM... our group was the lucky one as we used double amount of ingredients and egg yolk and of course... the ultimate mechanical ice cream machine!!!
I can tell you the ice cream tastes soooooooo nice, just like those soft serve ice cream you find in some places... [other group usd hand method to beat the mixture into ice cream...]... Wilson soo sorry, you missed the fun. :) but the post eveluation i'm sure you enjoyed the ice cream!! :)

2. Still laming whenever i can with my NYP family... still being 'abused' by the misses and sir. ma'am at least kindhearted only offer verbal abuse only... [i got alot of kicks from missy2 under my foot, and scratches. i think i am about to marry a 'hairy boyfriend' i met with my friends Siti, Nana and Lolita in Lucky Plaza. he's soooooooooooooooo... hairy. LOL :) Ma'am, must make a grand affair ok? I want all my indo-friends to join me in the wedding... especially 'Fitri'. Ma'am, i think you must teach your 2nd Nu-er to be WENROU... she is like... got PMS. :):):):) no offence arrrrrrr, Missy2.
missy1, don't keep saying your phrase:"shaddup lar..."... very funi when i heard it.

Missy2: i have something to say to you: "ya, whateva... anything!"

3. Evaluation of MEAT: Sooooooooooooooooooo intersting...
1st we took out a piece of raw steak...
then we POUNDED it, then we measure area and weight.
then we FRY it...
OMG the aroma makes me feel blessed in the lab as we fried both sides for 3min each.
then we calc. the % wt loss and shrinkage in size. o.O

Ok here comes the best part... we used two pieces of lean pork to measure the texture and fibrous structure. 1st, the meats was cooked in boiling water for awhile. then taken out. then we evaluated it, then we tried it. Celeste was like, she clearly does not want to pop the piece of fiber in her mouth. Yi Ting as well. only me & Wilsorn dared. the taste was norm, but the piece without tenderizer was like, yucks. still raw and BLOODY. wonder if i could get Salmonella in my tummy or not. :)
The next meaty thing we did was to make a meaty patty from minced pork/ beef i also dun know. after going in the oven being salted by 5G of salt [ooops its supposed to be a must in our group experiments, but at least better than adding pineapple chunks], thw whole thing came out wonderfully juicy and ... SALTY. Even though, we still enjoyed the meat galore that day... :)

4. BUSY DLing my Godmother's HD pictures on the net...

5. BEGIN to use my hard-earned money hahahahaha...

6. Just a day before i posted this, i nearly caused my NYP family to die from choking on food. Missy2 was like ... laughing with the food in her mouth [mind you, her food was full of oily stuff]. Missy1 also, see me do anything weird, she will ignite off with the laughing bomb. really if Mariam was mot here the whole NYP family will be like. . . funeral parlour like that.

7. I am so going to continue my german... i simply love it so much its soo challenging and unique. though i do not wish to go Germany [the stuff there is $$$$ than Singapore by 2X!! high standard of living!]
"Ich liebe Deutsch, und du? Aber ich nicht bin interessant wohne im Deutschland... Ich findet zu teuer lebe in Deutschland!"
Ha how's my german?? I did not use any translation thingys when i typed that i swear ok...

8. Madonna's driving me crazy. I'm so going to buy her Deluxe edition of Hard Candy... [FYI i have her Confessions on a Dancefloor Deluxe edition as well. :) ] then i saw the LP thingy of Hard Candy as well. $59.90! but anyway i dun have tt DJ thing to play it, so .... too bad. I just want the candy inside the album... mmmm the 'sticky and sweet' album.... candy galore...
awwwwwwwwww..... her STICKY & SWEET TOUR is only touring in Europe... not SINGAPORE!!!! if she did... she would surely have boosted the ecnomy of Singapore by tourism means.... lols i am talking illogical for something iam wishing to happen... If you by chance seen this message M-Dolla, i tell you... "PLEASE GIVE YOUR FANS IN S'PORE THEIR WISHES!!!" haha no offence meant :)
