I will having final examinations on next week. Because of Winter Solstice and Yung Hui's birthday on next two weeks and we all will go back to hometown, we decided to have a birthday celebration for him with his Lunar Birthday.
At 11 a.m, Rachel. Hui Sieng and I cycled to Tesco which in Eastlake, Kampar. We bought the ingredients needed for Tang Yuans and eggs for Yung Hui. After that, we went back to our hostel which in Westlake, Kampar. On the way back to Westlake, I broke two of 30 eggs because didn't know the way to take the eggs without broken it. But, finally I got it and brought the eggs back safely.
We rest a while, and after that we started our works. Firstly, Hui Sieng was peeling the potato skins for making mashed potato. She is very good in peel off all the potato skins with a small knife. After that, Rachel cooked the potato with rice cooker.

After finished all the works, our friends also came to my hostel. Yung Hui didn't realize that we had a birthday celebration for him. We mixed the "surprise" into the Tang Yuans for him. After he ate it, he realized that the "surprise" was Tang Yuan with chili inside it. Then, they were watching a movie and we brought the cake out for him.
