blog post ahoy!

today i shall post in reverse order what i've been doing because its 8am in the morning and i uploaded the pics in reverse. XD

first up, i've been making cute little cupcake ornaments!!
i used old xmas balls collected from mary,and left some plain because i think it looked nicer that way since its quite sparkly on its own. then i added japanese whipped cream clay ( abit expensive, for my taste, but the alternatives were either more expensive, too heavy, or havent been found here).
i think they look like a cupcake only if topped with a cherry like thingy, which is a red faux pearl bead i bought off eBay dirt cheap. hooray for free shipping XD when i showed alex the results his first comment was 'looks like christmas ornaments'

they ARE xmas ornaments! at least, this batch is. i have to find something like plaster of paris or expanding foam to fill in a cupcake base if i want to make anything else, because that would prevent the cupcake liners from crumpling in. i decorated the cream with little rhinestones meant for my nail art XD nice way to use them since they're $0.99 for a thousands bits?

randomly in a store one day, i saw this on sale. the angry bird merchandise has been in norway for awhile, but i have no idea how well it sells.
i also finally got my gym membership card, which is used to open the door to the gym. checks are conducted at random, which i was highly annoyed by because i was barely 5 mins on the treadmill when the guy came over. irritation got expressed by 'do i HAVE to get it NOW?'

XD i really dont like being interrupted. but the guy said i could get it later muhaha. i'm not that mean to make him wait till i was done though, so i got off to get it a few mins later.

the treadmill is highly similar to one i've used in Singapore, in Chinese Swimming Club i think? maybe its exactly the same, except the fan here worked XD i LOVE the fan blowing in my face while i jogged!!

ya its blurry because i was jogging and taking a pic. gym card is in the lower right corner, the white and blue thingy with no name, just number XD.

managed to get a shot of most of the gym before we left. its a nice sized gym, and not too many people when you go at 10pm. i noticed the people in there were regular gym users (as noted by mostly or very muscular bodies)

one thing i noticed about norwegians and gymming. its quite a popular thing to do for people of most ages, and they seem to get all the needed accessories and wear for it. or jogging. or bicyling. and its not cheap either, jogging pants sell for 400-500nkr. and i just scream inside whats wrong with a pair of shorts?! they even have workout SHIRTS.

whats wrong with a normal t shirt?! maybe its one of those 'i'm so cool i blablabla' thing. even normal bicyclers here use helmets, something we singaporeans do not see unless at cycling at the beach. i know alex is adamant i use a helmet if we bicycle, but cant talk back to that because this speed demon crashed before his eyes once ;D

after gymming, we + joco (he gyms there too) wemt back home, where i made a big pot of japanese curry! joco scares me when he ate because i was barely done with 4 mouths of curry and rice and his plate was already empty and back on the table. for a guy who eats for two, he sure is pretty damn slim.

anyway.. moving on... this was my meal before gym. XD

Tina's motto: i exercise so i can eat whatever the beep i want.

which would also includes this.mac n cheeeeeeeezzzzeee!

XD its not that good if you eat too much of that, but i forgot to add some ham to it which helps hmm... make it taste better i guess so you can eat more hohoho

tomorrow is monday and we're going to the gym again. and we're going to have MAKI ROLLS!!! YUM!! tempura prawn maki, i love you. and for dessert, chocolate fondue with fruits! gotta make use of that wonderful xmas present X)

thats all for today :)
