4 things

| | Comments (6)

Saw this "4 things" list on Crazyauntpurl.com and thought I'd do it since I'm out of things to blog about right now.

Four jobs I’ve had:

* Waitress
* Fund raiser for college
* data entry clerk
* Publicist

Four movies I can watch over and over:

* 10 things I hate about you (my numero Uno teenage movie)
* Love Actually
* The Emperor's New Groove & Elf tie here.
* Tha Gyan Moe (Thingyan Moe?) - the Burmese government used to show this every year in Burma around Thingyan and I really enjoy watching it. And it is the only Burmese movie that sticks in my head - I honestly can't name any other Burmese movies.

Four places I have lived:

* Yangon, Burma
* Jurong East, Singapore
* San Pedro, California
* Berkeley, California

Four television shows I love to watch:

* Prison Break
* CSI (all of them, but especially CSI Las Vegas - Grissom knows everything, y'all. I like CSI: NY less, a lot less, but then they try so hard, I feel bad, lol)
* Grey's Anatomy
* LOST

Four places I have been on vacation:

* London, England
* Disneyland at Anaheim, California
* Ngapali Beach, Burma
* Boston, Massachusetts

Four of my favorite dishes:

* Chin Paung Kyaw - a Burmese dish - fried Roselle with bamboo shoots, prawms, etc. (oh gosh, I haven't had it in a few weeks, I need to get me some)
* Sushi. How can an island nation like Singapore have bad sushi everywhere? I just don't understand.
* In-n-Out burger and fries with a large diet coke (same as Aunt Purl)
* Burmese tofu (tohoo) salad

Four websites I visit daily:

* news.google.com
* www.pinkisthenewblog.com (it's an addiction overlapping from the old days of having worked in gossip filled Hollywood)
* After those 2, I usually browse all the blogs I read and too many to list here.

Four places I would rather be right now:

* Playing around on the beach in Malibu, or Santa Monica, California.
* In Paris, visiting all the museums I never got to see, drinking strong espressos and eating crepes
* In my old house in ahlone, yangon - back in the old days when things were safe and innocent or so I thought.
* In a movie theatre, watching a funny movie.

Four bloggers I am tagging:

* The one who reads this post is tagged!
*yeah that means you.

oh my goodness,, you were in burma and you forgot to eat all those things?

the first day or 2 that I'm in YGN, i go to bo gyoke zay and i buy like 1 of everything at the snack stalls and eat them, lol.

I understand how that must be. for 7 years, i never had tohoo thote either, it was really hard! lol

that's the good thing about living in singapore, i guess.. you can get all the burmese food here. I'm gonna miss that.

Yep, everytime I go back, I was eating other stuffs - Kyay Oo, Dan Pout, Moet Hingar and home made foods but totally forgot to eat To Huu thote... I am out of MM for just 4 yrs but forgot to eat To Huu thote years before that... I just remember it when you mentioned it... this will be on my list in Xmas holiday trip back to MM...

You 'r gonna miss that? Moving out of S'pore? Back to the states?

actually, u know I didn't have tohoo thote too much either, before I left. neither did i have la phet thote a lot (But then I was a kid, when I was in burma, so my tastes were kinda different). but now i eat them all the time.
u can get dan pout in england right, all the Indian shops must have them?

moet hin ghar... mom makes it like almost every weekend. i'm so spoiled with all the Burmese food here. I don't know how I lived in california without them. Oh yeah, there were other good food there, lol.

buy back those dry packets of mon hinghar from burma. that's most of what we use here. they are really good. just add more fish, if you want, u know.

moving out of s'pore? that's such a riddle right now. I keep making plans and they keep falling apart, so I'm not telling plans till I'm somewhere and then 'll blog from there. lol. but i'm here for a while, anyway.

mmBlues said:

Well yeah, I can get Dan Pout or Indian food in stores like Tesco or Sainsbury. But the flavor is really light. Getting back the food is hard in Heathrow because of bird flu... now it's worse because of the terror plans...

Anyway; good luck whatever you do or whatever your plan is.. :)
