I straight it but it still looks very ... like volume
Hello guys
Welcome to Minnie's channel

And don't forget to press the bell icon as well
So I actually have something to share with you guys. You know I'm a very positive person right...
so...
Today I'm actually feeling a little bit down
I have to be honest. I don't want to be fake in front of the camera
So I will always tell you guys more or less what's going on
On Saturday I filmed a video
And it was my best vlog EVER
And I know you guys would've enjoyed this a lot but unfortunately at the end of Saturday
When I got home and I wanted to put my SD card into my laptop to edit my video
My files were corrupted
it's so frustrating!!! :(
I'm still very sad about it, honestly
This vlog was so much effort (worth it though)
I went to 3 different places to show you guys things
And I can never get the same footage ever again because there were 2 surprises that I did not expect in this video
I was so excited to post this vlog as well, usually when I film something
Oh by the way, please ignore the mess on my bed
It's just like 2 jackets and a sweater, I still have to put it in my closet
Anyway, back to the point. I was so excited to post this vlog
I got home and immediately I wanted to edit
Usually I film a vlog and then the next day I will edit just to give myself some time you know? and to relax
But for this one I couldn't wait. I was so excited so I just wanted to edit
So then I just put my SD card into my laptop as I usually would and... suddenly, none of it's working :/ ?
So I just kind of freaked out
Definitely, because I knew I only had 2 days to edit
Because I work in the day so I can only edit at night
So I don't have a lot of time to edit that's why it usually takes me about 3, 4 days to edit
It depends on the video. If it's a vlog, usually it takes me like 3 days
So I was like WOW now I have to post something else and I'm scared that I don't post in time and I don't want you guys to wait!
But I knew that you guys would understand if I say it. So here I am telling you guys exactly what happened
So right now/this morning I went into a computer shop
And I gave them the SD card and I told them here you go. Please fix it. I'm hoping that they can fix it
Because it is there (just corrupted). But I will see at the end of this day if I get it back
Also if I make my next vlog you guys will know if I got it back or not
Even though i'm a little sad that I couldn't post the vlog yet.... or maybe EVER
I'm still gonna make the best out of this video
And I really wanna show you guys my cooking "skills"
I'm not like a chef or anything but I do want to show you guys how I try to make some Indonesian food
Please don't have high hopes for this
I'm just gonna try. OK, I will get you guys in the kitchen
OK I'm in the kitchen. It's time to cook
first we're going to get some rice
I never know how much rice to take. I always make too much rice
Light, it, up!
I prefer a gas stove over an* electric stove
Because I just think it works better you know, especially in South Africa
Because we have so much load shedding. If you have a gas stove, you can cook at any time even if you don't have any electricity
Now that i'm looking at it. I don't know if this is enough rice
But I'm a tiny person
So... I think a tiny amount will be enough for a tiny person right?
So while I'm waiting for my rice, I am going to take my frozen (vegetables)
It's chopped onions and some green pepper
Gonna add some salt to the rice
So the onions and the green peppers are in the pan and I just realized they're not chopped very fine
Like they're quite big but...
There's nothing I can do about it now
Did I even say what I'm cooking
I don't know how to pronounce it so I'm first going to check how to pronounce.
Nasi Goreng (Indonesian)
Nasi Goreng
OK OK I just wanted to make sure that I'm pronouncing it correctly
I'm realizing now as I'm cooking I'm actually feeling a lot happier all of a sudden
And I'm pretty sure it's because I'm cooking nasi goreng RIGHT!?
That can be the only reason why I'm happy. it's because i'm cooking Indonesian food
And it's just helping me to get my mind off of everything
I don't know why the rice is taking so long
So in the recipe I saw online for Nasi Goreng They put ummm, I think prawn paste (I meant to say shrimp paste lol)
And I don't like that So I am going to use a lot of substitutions
Which is why I have my recipe written down here. Just because I prefer to follow my own taste
I'm not gonna put something in my food that I don't like
But first we need tomato paste, sugar, chutney
Worcestershire sauce
YAY! tadaaaa!
I got the sweet chili guys. (my fav)
There's a cupboard and my camera is inside the cupboard. And I forgot to take this out before the time
The reason why I'm adding sweet chili to this is because I don't like CHILI
I like spicy food but I don't like too spicy
So if it's sweet chili it's like the perfect mixture of sweetness and spice
So first i'm gonna add a table spoon of tomato paste (about that much)
Into the pan
WOW! Why is it making so much noise
Aaaah!
Chill!
It's till on my finger guys
ouch ;)
*adding all the ingredients. I added the sweet chili AFTER*
*mix*
*garlic*
*adding rice with sauce*
*mix*
*adding 1 egg*
*scramble*
*salt*
*pepper*
*adding green peppers and onion*
dish out my leftovers
*egg number 2*
I also have some veggies on the side
*DONE*
first time South African trying Indonesian Nasi Goreng
so much flavor!
But I need to take another bite
mmm
look at that
The yellow is inside of the rice now because I poked it
Another bite of the yellow part
I'm really proud of myself, I cannot stop eating guys
It's really good
No joking .... SO GOOD
I don't even think I need my vegetables anymore
If I have to rate this out of 10. I would probably give it like, 9.5
It's almost 10 out of 10
And I don't really think it's only my cooking skills I think it's the ingredients that I used
It's so much flavor. Like so much
And I actually wanted to add some of this
as well at the end but I decided not to because I knew that there was already a lot of flavor in there
and it's literally perfect
Got a new lens cap. The order arrived
Here it is. They give this big box for this tiny thing
That is it for today's video guys. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING
I know I was sad at the beginning of this video but
I really think the cooking and the food made me a lot happier
I'm still hoping to get my vlog footage back
and if I don't then life goes on and life continues. I cannot be sad forever
I have to get over it right
So I hope you guys enjoyed this. Here's my Instagram if you want to go "stalk" me
See you next time.
All the best God bless. BYE :)
