guess you guys wouldnt be able to see how much ali and baba have grown since phi phi island has changed so much that their hut's no longer there. and it's only been less than a year? ): oh well, it's always nice to receive a call from someone who's far away despite being jealous that i'm not the one who's there, not the one who's happily soaking up the sun/shopping/kayaking/snorkelling/eating delicious thai food etc. GEEZ. i wish i were half as carefree!

BUT!
i've been bad too.
vic and i had some girlie shopping!!! not really actually, we were very much ON TARGET! cause we got her presents settled within, say two hours? (: and even had time for some chokingly-good cream puffs (laughs!) and nonstop photo-taking!!! (:

and to relive those teenage years, we took neo-prints! hurhur


lovely hearts!


blowing kisses


are we attracting stares?

though quite a lot has happened recently and it's hard to lift our heavy heavy hearts, do know that you have me (: i'll be your pillar of strength. now, we need to push each other to do work and help each other scale the pagodas! HURHUR! the next time, it'll be your turn to stay over alrights! love!

here are some pictures from sushi-making class, two weeks back

the breezy morning, a great start!


the sushi tei chefs! (excluding the guy at the extreme right. he's masaki, bel's friend who's jap)


the ingredients ...


with my superb culinary skills... (i wish!)


produced THESE! (:


actually, we were only taught how to wrap the sushi
that's why they still tasted so good!
guess sushi tei wouldnt sell their knowhow so easily
