Cute!

Looks like my form class finally discovered my real nickname. I actually prefer it to teddy bear; which was my nick before mashimaro. The latter somehow sticks better.

Here's Wenya's masterpiece:

Cute! HAHA!

Here's Ryan's from two years ago:

Chicken Nuggets, popcorn chicken...

This is mainly for my form class.

This is a recipe for chicken nuggets. But if you cut the chicken down to a smaller size, it will become popcorn chicken. The good thing about it is that it does not involve any frying.

Ingredients:
- Chicken fillets
- Biscuits / crackers / bread crumbs
- Plain Yoghurt
- Pepper, salt, chilli and coriander power

Step 1:
- Cut the chicken into small bits
- That's just 4 pieces of the chicken fillets

Step 2
- Prepare the marinate
- Mix the yoghurt, salt, pepper, spices together

Step 4:
- Crush the biscuits
- Mix the chicken pieces into the marinate
- Prepare the tray

Step 5:
- Coat the chicken pieces with the crumbs

Step 6:
- Bake on very high heat for 20 minutes

This is the end result. That's good for 3 or 4 servings. One tray of chicken should make a solid 12 servings at the least. It is far cheaper than buying pre-cooked stuff.

Above All

The anonymous spammer thinks I don't update often enough. Well, will try do so a little more now, since I am a little bit more time now.

Anyway, this is one of the best videos I've seen on Youtube. I'm still amazed each time I see it.

The calm before the storm

It the nice calm before the storm, a storm of marking that is! It is interesting to sit on this side of the examination after being on the other for a good portion of my life. I have to say, teachers get stressed during this period just as much as students. Some signs of stress:

1) Dreamt that the neck of my Taylor broke and the bridge was torn off (more like a nightmare)
2) Dreamt that my Cornerstone's top broke in mid-construction :(
3) Dreamt that I managed to sell my Ibanez and Maestro, only to wake up to find that haven't been sold yet :(
4) Dreamt of "someone". Honestly, it was a little disturbing... cos rottan class...
5) Didn't dream on some nights... those were pleasant.

Signs of stress in the common room... convo between Mr A and Mr E:

Mr E: Mr A, you reminded to remind you early this morning about something.

Me A: Please remind me about what I reminded you to remind me this morning. (Sounds like Jack Sparrow isn't it?)

Mr E: I forgot.

Anyway, I thought the show "Fan Chan" (My girl) was pretty good, even though it was in Thai. I was smiling through quite a number of parts of the movie, really sweet. Honestly, the whole story reminded me of something (or someone rather) in my past. Like what the protagonist in the story said at the end, that he will always remember the girl in a certain way, I don't think I will forget those pink plastic specs (hahahaha...). I wonder where she is now.
