Eggs or Bunnies?

This has been one crazy week, rushing everything out for ECHO youth service! So much stuff to do! Had to spend the whole week doing out everything! And i realized that i'm a workaholic, I always say yes to everything that come my way..... perfectionist + workaholic do not go together! But I always like to challenge myself and reach for the moon because if everything don't work out, at least you fall on the stars~ Oh and i finally decided on a company to work in! So excited to start work in May! And i baked vegan cookies but they tasted quite~~~~ 

What i have been up to

Other than being super busy with FYP, i did a freelance work for a magazine. Yay this will be my first published work. It's all for a mens' lifestyle magazine. First day of dip show was quite exciting, but a little tiring. Looking forward to meeting new people, next week will be a hectic week. I'll start cooking and baking soon. And i miss running! ok next week i shall start my running routine again. Oh portfolio updated.

Oh 2011! the new year starts officially on march!

I have been so flooded by FYP that 2011 does not feel like a new year at all.
I like blogging but i'll be on hiatus until march! Hopefully i'll feel more like a human then.
I want to sleep, run and eat like normal.

Oh gosh thank you iris!!!!!!!! You are too sweet!!!!

*break due to overload of memory and need to transfer to hard disk, if not i won't be blogging*

VeganMoFo till next year~

Sadly this time round i didn't get to post as much as i wanted to:( I'm just too busy with school work and stress. But I really thank God for giving me a chance to meet fellow MoFoe-ers, they make me feel that being vegan is not weird at all. A whole bunch of vegans are out there and they are really sweet and fun people( well, at least on their blogs!). They are really great cooks too! I'm really thankful to all the international readers whose comments are so encouraging:) Seriously Singapore still has a loooong way to go before we become a more understanding and environmentally-friendly society. Most people here don't even know what vegan means or the difference between vegetarian and vegans:( How i wish i have friends like these! One of my favorite vegan blogger(maybe because she is asian too!), she has a bunch of sweet friends who actually bother making vegan food for her! nice~~

Thunder Tea Rice

Even though it is a little late but last food to introduce to Vegan MoFo- Thunder tea rice! I had a really horrible day yesterday, i just couldn't post anything~~ Just buy the thunder tea rice without the ikan bilis and i think it should be vegan! Yum! I really wish i know how to make this~ It is absolutely fantastic! Normally comes with rice and 5-7 kinds of veggies, peanuts and tofu in a tea soup! yes tea soup! It makes the whole thing green in colour! I love this dish! My sisters bought it back for me yesterday and it was good:) I'm sure i can find better ones in Singapore, but this is one dish i'm not picky about! I love it! And it is healthy too!

Well despite the most horrible day of the year- yesterday, it was cheered up by thunder tea rice and the sweet little girlie below! Well ending off with a sweet bye bye~

cute little cousin:)

Wacko!!! There is no turning back!

Oh ho very good! Very successful people! I am upset and don't want to be a vegetarian now. I don't want to be because 95% of the people around me are against me/don't understand me/hate me. How i sincerely wish time will turn back and I did not do the IP project for vegetarian society of singapore which lead me to read Eating Animals which led me to Veganism which lead me to this big headache/upset. Too bad I know what is going on now and I cannot turn back time and if anyone force me to eat an animal's corpse i'll just vomit and die.(maybe not but i'll run away to hide in a hole...) The point s i cannot don't want to be a vegan/vegetarian because i CAN'T!!!!! I have to do it!!! I cannot eat with so much cruelty and hack-care about the earth! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Why can people do it???? I don't get it either! Oh gosh angst teenage girl! Oh but i'm 20 already! So i have to be matured and nice to people who love destroying their health and the world! :D

Today i taught 15 kids that we should love sharks and protect them:) I spent time researching and found a fantastic guide online to educate kids on protecting sea creatures! I felt for a little while i was doing something meaningful in the world. The kids kinda got what i was teaching them. I feel that it is so possible to change the way people live if they are educated at a young age.

What you should all know about sharks:
-they have been around for 400 million years
-they are the protectors of our oceans! (they keep the food chain balance:)
-There are only less than 100 sharks attack in a year with very few fatal cases
-Human are the reason they are facing extinction
-Human kill them by the 100 millions
-Sharks fins have zero benefits(yeah! Stop Stop Stop crazy people!)
-Many many sharks are left to die after their fins get cut off...

Is it worth for such an amazing species of animal o die just for your STUPID SHARK FIN SOUP??? Gosh humans are really selfish huh... During lessons today what most of the first stuff the kids know about sharks....shark fin soup! gosh:( Why can humans do it anyway. Be cruel, cause animals to be extinct and grow fat-_-" Even after my lesson there is still one kid who said that he wants to kill sharks and drink shark fin soup.(Well it is no coincidence that he is overweight, no offense but you are what you eat) Even though all the up and downs i still face today as a vegan wannabe I felt that at least i made a small difference in the kids life today. They learnt that sharks are not evil, not made to kill humans and humans are the one killing them. I thought they won't get it, but i could tell a few of them got it. I was so touched when this girl went out and told her mum/maid(sorry not clear which) that she learnt that we should not kill sharks! Sweet:) (heart melts!) My dearest friend if you still intend to serve shark fin on you wedding, then just don't invite me k? I don't want to fight with you or hold a 'parang' against your chest to warn you against it! (not joking!)

The sharks are made of reused materials!(newspaper, old art paper, cupboard etc)

Singapore is so backward in terms of environmental awareness, it is simply amazing. We are such a developed and fast pace country yet shark consumption is legal?!! gosh! I know how some non-singaporeans may feel, ridiculous right?! I love my country, my friends and relatives, but shark fin soup?! *faint faint* too cruel!!!!!!!

hmmm maybe i should try to be less passionate or enthusiastic about things i believe in?! I need to sound less wacky right~ But this is my blog, not yours!

VeganMoFo-Eugene's Style

Just a VeganMofo by my dearest Eugene! I'm secretly so proud of eu darling! These are his first few attempts so far at salad making! His not a full fledge vegan yet but give this guy some credits! From our crazy quarrel days over animal consumption (and secret eating of Big Macs! EWWW!) to eating fresh fruits and salads everyday and making them all on his own in his university dorm. I think he has made vast improvements since i came back! Last last week he didn't even know he had to wash his vegetables before cutting! So blur but so cute! Haha. He made such big improvement in his diet and i'm really really happy! He is probably the healthiest NTU student now! He only eats fresh fruits and veggies and nuts and oats! I want to eat like him too! Salad everyday~~ But i still have my sisters to think about and of course organic salad greens are not that cheap for a family of 6:(

Well i'm going to start work soon in a few months time! The only perk of starting work is more money to buy organic veggies, save up for a food processor and dehydrator! Yay!
