My facebook is disabled

My facebook kena disabled!!!

I've been reporting my faker for more than a year already (I think) and she was never gone. In the end I'm the one who kena first!

What kind of account status evaluation is that. Hello, isn't it obvious that I'm the real deal instead of that persistant faker?? Actually very easy to see if an account is real or not. How is it possible that if it's a fake account, so many friends tag me in their photos and allow me to tag them? How is it possible that I'm able to have real conversations with so many people??

Miyake told me that she kena disabled before too, and the reason is because our profile names do not match our real names!! How does facebook know that I'm born Esther Chia and not Esther Xie ah? Anyway, Xie is the chinese pronounciation of Chia, so I don't see why I cannot use Xie!

Plus, people knew me as Esther Xie for afew years already. Miyake said that it's a long process to getting back our account and they'll reinstate it with the real name, and won't allow for edits to the name. Wtf? Then if I use Esther Chia, so many people won't be able to find me cos they don't even know that I'm Chia!

Plus got so many people out there using "xxMichxx" or "KittyLove97" or "LuvBaobei1314", this kind how come never kena disabled!!!!

I'm doing the verification thingy now. It's very irritating cos I submitted twice already (once when I just found out and once this morning), and both times they say "You should receive an email response shortly. You may need to respond to it before we can assist you further." ~~~ Hello Facebook, I DID NOT RECEIVE THE EMAILS. What should I do now??? Where else can I find you if you don't send me an email although you say you would, TWICE????????

Super sian now cos it's so inconvenient that my facebook acc is not around anymore. When I need to find a particular picture I usually search for it on my FB as it's easier. Now I have to go through pages and pages of my blog just to find something. I'm not a heavy user for FB but now I cannot even RSVP to fidelis' bday party that is coming this saturday!!!! Lucky I have access to SX's account. I use it to do my stalking of other people for now. Hahaha.

I need a holiday!

I think I this year not fated to get out of the country -_-

Earlier this year, there was this $3 genting accommodation offer at one of the group deal websites. I saw that the hours to deal close is still 10 hours+, so I waited till I got home to tell my parents regarding it. In the end my father say okay go buy, THE DEAL IS SOLD OUT. T_T

My mum was always strict about me staying out overnight, even overnight camp also cannot. I only had one 1-night camp at school in Poly so far. And, she has already strictly emphasized a big NO to any overseas trips that I want to go with friends. All my trips to malaysia thus far, was with the family. Then, I had a chance to go Bintan with some of my friends. I tried my luck and asked her if I could go, and surprisingly, she said OKAY. I was like super happy. And then in the end the trip was cancelled due to some ticket mix-up... zzzzzz..

Then, my mum had wanted to go to Genting with my grandparents and actually asked if I want to go. Of course I said I want! In the end she changed her mind and say better for me not to go. WAHLAO :(

So that day, my mum asked me to go search see got what affordable holidays we can go as a family this year. There are alot of cheap phuket, bintan, bali kind of trips but mum says beach is boring and don't want to go. So in the end after much effort I finally convinced her to go Hong Kong instead of same old genting. And so, we planned to go there in September this year. Just afew days ago, she read the news and say that Hong Kong got new disease spreading around, cannot go already. AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Now that Malaysia's custom is so messed up, I don't think we can even go Kuala Lumpur too.

I remember that still got afew almost-can-go-oversea-trip encounters but can't remember exactly what. Hmmph. I WANT TO GO HOLIDAYYYYYYYYYY.

My new domain

As you can see, I now have a .com blog!

www.estherxie.com

Didn't know whether to use my real name Esther Chia or use my blogging name EstherXie, in which Xie is the chinese pronounciation of my surname Chia. Didn't like Chia cos it doesn't sound nice when pronounced and "Esther Chia" just looks like a plain boring girl. Ok, I somehow fit into that description compared to most of the other bloggers around, but behind the facade of my sweet calm little blog, I think my life is a messy drama - not necessarily a good thing. My dramas are the very bitter and damn suay type, not the exciting romantic kind. In other words, I'm the poor girl in period dramas where she gets thrown hurdles after hurdles non-stop, and not the lucky girl in idol dramas that get to float through complications smoothly with lots of luck and help and ending up with handsome male leads pouring her with lots of love. -_-

Oh well. What can I do right. If only my life can be made into a drama serial. At least I would be comforted by the fact that all these will be good substance for the script, quite worth it.

I used to display my raw emotions on my blog because it is a kind of release for me. But in recent years I don't like to pour my personal feelings out on this public platform anymore. There's just too much explaining involved and it complicates matters. Sometimes I still reveal a bit of feelings on my blog but it is kept to a minimum.

So anyway. I'm going through quite a tough period of time now and all I wish to do is just lay around and stare into space. But that will just bring me to another level of negativity so I'm trying to distract myself by going out with friends more. But this kind of happiness is temporary afterall. Hope I recover soon!

I want to move on from the current state I'm stuck in. I want to do the things I enjoy and I want to have the opportunities to do so (okay yada yada I think I ranted this many times before). Of course there are obstacles blocking my way currently and I do not have the ability nor know how to overcome them yet. Wish me luck! I just feel that currently almost all areas of my life is at its low points.

On to better topics, I'm in the midst of changing my blogskin! Like, finally. Still deciding what picture to use. That's something to look forward to I guess.

Alright, shall end here.

Now that my domain is estherxie.com and not the-miracle-season.blogspot.com anymore, I hope that people will stop calling me miracleseason outside and at events. Haha.

Cooking together

Let's Play Cooking!

It was a bright...... and rainy day.


HelloKitty top from TheBlogShop!

Tried walking to Loyang Point from home but it wasn't easy walking in the rain. Ended up flagging a cab. Hahaha ended up the mall seem quite far from home. I thought it was near, cos I remember walking there frequently when I was a kid! SX was super relieved lol!


Sourcing for the cheapest brands at Sheng Shiong. Lol.


Ended up we couldn't find all the items we need, so we went back to the supermarket at my neighbourhood to buy the rest.

His house got these 7 dwarfs figurines. When I saw it, he asked me: "You know where is Snow White?" then he pointed to me and said "There~~". Lol.


SX is the main chef of the day!


Cooking crabs for the first time.





Coat with flour~~


Deep Fry~


I am kitchen helper! I help to cut onion lol.






We bought pre-made black pepper sauce to fry. Haha play cheat one!


Final dish! The sauce was super good, me like!


We also prepared afew other dishes for steamboat. Me wrap wanton :D


Wrapping wanton is fun! I get to decide how much meat I want to give. Haha.


We bought 3 different types of veggies. There were so many choices, we anyhow choose!


I wrapped taopok with meat too.


Clams. His favourite, plus make the soup taste sweeter.


Hotdogs and luncheon meat are cheap steamboat items.


Mushrooms.


Sliced Pork.


Meat balls and fishballs.


Quail eggs and button mushrooms.


Chicken.


Tofu.


Udon.


Fish, sotong and prawn. Nicely shelled by SX! Haha. Actually he did most of the unfun preparations.


This was the readymade-soup we used! Just pour it into the steamboat and boil.



Fed 6 people. Total expenditure was around $70+ $80+ I think! Lots of leftover in the end though, nextime should buy lesser.

Anyway, cooking together is not as romantic as I thought it would be. Those drama bluff people one!! I think next time he cook, I wait and eat better hehehe.
