Swanston Hospitality

Its 12.40am and i am up contemplating if i should have nutella with bread. It is such an existential decision because it shall determine when i will go to sleep. Haha. I found out that i am hungry almost every other hour after meals so its really something i will have to get used to. Gotta get more snacks man. Brrr.

On a sidenote, i was home on wed so i decided to try out my instant jasmine rice which i adventurously (stupidly) bought for a price.

AUD$2.55. a total ripoff and tasteless piece of *$@^%#(

I haven’t bought rice cooker thats why. I rather cook pasta if this counts as rice. blargh, the taste horror still lingers.

So i’ve decided to cook korma with chicken and some leftover vegetable. All in all the instant korma sauce was salty which i hate but the chicken held together pretty well. The lesson is that i need to go grocery shopping again so i can stop eating all these salty and tasteless instant-ish food.

tastes nice in small portions. makes u thirsty if eaten lots!

Anyway, im glad i get opportunities to make mistakes and experiment. Only time stands between me and tasty creations. I think. hahaha.

Dinner last night was interesting too. Not because of my cooking but because debs cooked! Its really nice to hang out here with friends and drink tea and chat. Its amazing how nearly 8 years later, we still kept in touch and in her words, “and in Melbourne somemore” (debs, 2008).

It was quite a spread. Mostly pork, but i love pig. Love fatty pigs. The lack of food pictures is because i was too engrossed with eating to be snapping, which is always a good sign, but i did catch a glimpse of her hard at work. Its for the recognition. =)

hard at work

But still she found time to pose.

not so hard at work

We had a good dinner and chatted about a lot of things. Debs does Anthropology and one of the major things we agreed upon is that Aussies are more forgiving when it comes to the artsy stuff. The thing that came to my mind is the million dollar qns that swakoo SG ppl surely ask her once they find out she’s studying anthropology.

Swakoo SG boy/girl: Hi Debs.

Debs: Hi i am Debs.

Swakoo SG boy/girl: U do what course ah?

Debs: Oh i am reading anthropology.

Swakoo SG boy/girl: Errr wad that?

Debs: Oh its the study of cultures and people groups around the world. Its very cool and funky. I love it.

Swakoo SG boy/girl: ooooh, can earn $$$$ meh?!

Met her housemate Michelle too and its just the way with Christians i feel, we hit it off well and it was fun hanging as SG just strumming the guitar, drinking EB tea and chilling. Michelle is hitting the snow today and thats really cool. Makes me feel that i should try how it would feel like too.

I kinda miss my bike, the feeling of punishing myself on slopes and then taking a leisure cruise down it. Very excellent feel.

Alright, time to sleep. But before that:

love the shadows

somehow, i feel a strong obsession for well shaped flares
