floor polishing

Laurent decided to have the floor polished in the living room and corridor. As a result, I can't access to my bedroom.

The guys came yesterday, they did the smoothing and first coating of the wooden floor in the living room and the corridor. On Sunday night, Laurent and I moved out all the furnitures from living room.

Since I couldn't access to the bedroom, I slept in my office. Sleeping on a spare mattress on the office floor is not that comfortable.

In Buddy's Eyes @ Wisteria Lane

Last week on Wisteria Lane, it was about churches. Lynette went to Bree's Presbyterian church and had a lot of questions. Bree was being Bree, she told Lynette that the church was not the place for asking questions. The next day, Lynette went to Catholics instead. Bree later apologised. Carlos admitted that he's blind. Susan's Tim had sex with Katherine, and they had sex before 12 years ago when Tim was 16. Tim later told Susan that he witnessed her and a man arguing, and then saw her hit the guy with a heavy candlestick. He had a feeling that he was Katherine's ex-husband.

Mary Alice Young quote: “Faith is a belief in something that cannot be proven, so we trust in the words of the only father we've ever known. We believe the promises of the woman who shares our bed. We rely on the example of dear friends who help us to be better people. Yes, we all want to believe in those we are closest to, but where there is doubt, our faith begins to vanish... and fear rushes in to take its place.”

A cyclone hit Burma caused huge damage and many deaths. Olympic champion Grant Hackett returned home. Here's the weekly The Week It Was. As usual, the clip is available in the usual H.264 format. Why do I use H.264 format? See this QuickTime codec comparison page and judge yourself.

A cyclone hit Burma caused huge damage and many deaths. The government there still do not allow easy access to the region from foreign aids. Olympic champion Grant Hackett arrived home, declaring he's fit not fat. (Photos of Hackett showing his fat stomach after being disqualified for Bijing Olympics 10km open water swim.) The 50th annual Logie Award was held last Sunday. Channel Seven won the most awards, followed by ABC.

unusual meat and I cut my finger

Laurent's cooking school was busy today, and he needed a kitchen hand to assist him, I offered him my help.

He had a team building for Tracy's Big Day Out. They chose Native Australian food for the menu. What does that mean? After hours of working in Laurent's kitchen, I have crocodile fillet and kangaroo meat to eat. Crocodile meat tastes a bit like chicken but very light in flavour, and the kangaroo tastes like light flavoured beef by itself.

Then in the evening, I had lamb brain. The name sounds a bit scary, and the brain taste like silky tofu (by itself).

Firstly, sorry for the poor photo quality. It was taken by my outdated Sony Ericsson K750i mobile phone.

This photo simply won't go onto the arrogant native English speakers' favourite Engrish.com website, a website dedicated to poke fun and make a big fuss on some Asian's non-perfect English. And the above photo was taken in an Australian green grocers which is not by Asians. Had a similar photo taken (with similar English grammar issues).

Haven't spotted the English/Engrish issue? Please keep reading.
