It was shaping up to be a pretty bad weekend last week, the day after gaga, I started to get sick :( come Friday; I skipped my morning classes but did manage to make it to 2 hours in the afternoon. Spent the weekend drinking tea…lots of tea, eating toast and sleeping a lot :( drug of choice was panadol (only one I have in the house, which reminds me I should stock up on something stronger) which staved off the stomach cramps for a bit. Was able to stomach some pasta on Sunday night and fortunately, it was gone by Monday morning so my afternoon lab was undergone without much trouble. Dinner on Monday night was roast pork ribs with rice and fried vegies. Haven’t had roast pork in ages, it was so good!
I’ve also been packing lunches for uni as well lately, which is an unusual thing for me. I live on campus so I usually just go home for lunch but this week, have been lunching (with my ham and cheese sandwiches) at uni which is a nice change and much more social. Come to think of it, I’ve never had lunch with my housemates…we’re never home for lunch on the same days lol.
I found this remarkable story on Wednesday; about a boy with 31 fingers and toes, whoa! the article is titled Chinese boy has 31 Fingers, toes. I haven’t found a follow up story on it yet. Shall go searching for it later if I remember. Also in the news, the weather around Australia has been extremely lately, from hail in Melbourne to storms in Perth. Also, Cyclone Ului hit Mackay as well. I wonder what happened to the 5 cyclones between Olga and Ului… (they are named alphabetically and male, female etc … eg cyclone Neville(male) was before Olga (female)) so from Olga to Ului there should’ve been 5 . It’s hard to keep track, especially of the cyclones that don’t amass to anything as I’m down south in NSW and the cyclones hit up north so I won’t hear about them unless they actually hit.
Last night I went to a ‘mystery dinner’ with my housemate. You sign up as either a host or a diner and are randomly allocated to someone’s place for dinner. It is run by my housemate’s church. All up, there were 9 people at the one we went to including the hosts and it was a very enjoyable night. :) We had; bruschetta, chorizo and mushroom pasta with cream and strawberry and blueberry trifle. No photos as I didn’t want to freak out some of the people I’d only just met with my photo-whoring ways and as we were eating outside, the lighting was too poor to produce a decent photo anyway.
The weekend is back, it’s almost mid semester and the workload is just piling up! I’m trying to be good and study during semester so I don’t need to cram, (*chants* I will not need to cram at the end of semester, I will not need to cram at the end of semester) We’re having a fire drill this afternoon at about 2:30 as well so I shall make myself scarce before then lol. If there ever is a fire, I know where to go anyway as there is a map on my door, besides, I’ve gone to a fire drill before. That’s my excuse XD
