Satisfying sushi cravings

After thesis class yesterday, all three of us were craving for sushi, so we decided to have late lunch together today. <3 I missed hanging out with Jamie and Mary. I missed hanging out with girls, period. If anything, even if girls are more complicated than boys (and not just from a guy’s POV), they’re less confusing (for me). Nothing to feel confused over at all.

Despite the horrible weather than rendered my clothing useless against the cold, this lunch made up for it (and, well, among other unpleasant things lately).

my wonderful, fantastic lunch

The amount of rice I normally eat is maybe the same amount a five-year-old eats. Or even less. But this Japanese rice (forgot what it's called) is something I'd eat in whole bowl-servings!

You can see my crocheted sweater. I was wearing a navy blue short dress and my yellow wedges, so you see, it really didn't jive with the heavy rainy weather. Guh.

One of the things I hate about the Philippines is FLOOD. FLOOD AND TRAFFIC AND MORE TRAFFIC. Four hours of my life getting wasted on a supposedly 30-minute ride home. I tried doing our Javascript mini-project in the car but I still couldn’t figure out how to fix it. I’ve been working on it ALL day. Maybe tomorrow I’ll try to finish it — at least the Javascript part. Design is going to be easier and more fun after that obstacle. Maybe I’m ill-equipped with the kind of logic Object Oriented Programming demands hahahaha.

Meanwhile, I need to catch up with production design work for a different thesis. It feels like I’m doing so many theses because of work/freelance/helping with friends.

I forgot July had a 31

I did nothing today but design and code my thesis blog (it’s in HTML5 again, but just the minor features like the font and text-shadows. Because HTML5 is pretty).  I don’t know what drains me anymore because even though that’s all I did, at 9.45 pm I’m already  willing to hit the sack. Except I shouldn’t, because I have 5% of weekend-thesis done, and I’m at 0% progress with my Flash project.

I absolutely had no exercise last week because of the flu and because chips were some of the food I could still taste, I ended up eating a lot of those. :( I guess it doesn’t help that yesterday I ate at Bannapple with friends from my org. Jopy and I ended up doing the smartest and yet still slightly stupidest thing ever. We both ordered a meal each, and then asked them to serve our meals into two, so in the end we get to eat two different dishes in one night. Except, an hour before we had dinner, we also ordered dessert (yes, we ate dessert first) — mine being banoffee pie. It is the best pie in the world but incredibly filling. Therefore, by the end of the meal, both of us just wanted to get rid of everything we ate. Haha. I got home at around 10pm and I still was too full to sleep early.

my order: baked fish

my order: baked fish (Php 165)

Jopy's order: barbecued ribs

It was heaven while eating, and then almost hell after.

Jopy and I ended up sort-of regretting we didn’t go to Makati to party instead of…dinner last night. But oh well. I’m still sick anyway, and drinks and a party might not be the best thing for me this week. I just feel dressing up yesterday was a little waste. I mean, I ended up sliding down on the pavement because of the rain because I wasn’t really dressed for the weather (when am I ever?). I could have been having fun at an open bar instead, haha.

I’m going to a family reunion tomorrow, because my cousin who lives in Ohio is going to leave for the US again. She visited us for a month but I was too busy with school, work, and thesis to spend so much time with her and her kids. Tomorrow will be the last day I’ll see her, and then it’s a countdown to two years after before the next visit. :( I don’t mind spending time with my family but school/work/acads takes half the fun away. I’m going to be there and yet I’ll be stressing out whenever I think of my to-do list and the fact that I AM NOT WORKING.

At the very least I can be proud that I’m still holding up from not installing the Sims on my laptop. It’s going to be a sin if I did and I’m determined not to until this semester is over. WHATUP.
