10 million calories - 3:51 PM
Why.... whyyyy... why do all things unkind happen to me? I finally gathered up enough energy to get my ass off the chair, poke my contact lenses into my eyes, changed my bra, wore my socks, and actually REALLY intended to go to the gym.. but whyyy why must they be closed today?! By the way, I think my effort deserves some applause though. Lets not forget that it is, after all... a weary Saturday afternoon.Anyway, I have reached another milestone... I BOUGHT MYSELF A TOASTER OVEN AND A RICE COOKER! Wahhah...you all will be surprised how many appliances my tiny room holds. And I read the instructions on the manual that came with the rice cooker, and it reads: One part Rice, 2 parts Water... WAH, thank god I mastered the art of rice cooking over the summer, or else if I follow their instructions ah, all I'm getting out of it will be watery porridge. -phew-
But then I realised that, oh ok... now I have a ricecooker...BUT I DON'T HAVE RICE LEH?! So my exercise for the day will be walking over to the Oriental Mart (its quite a walk away la, like everything around here), and lugging back rice. Ok la... the word 'lug' is too over the top, since I'm only gonna buy a small packet.
Football season has started, and today, the Spartans play the Idaho something (POTATOs, maybe?). But thats besides the point..just thought you might be the least interested
Oh yes, something worth a cause for celebration... I BOOKED MY AIR TICKETS HOME! I'll be leaving Lansing on 15th Dec (cos my exams are ending late.. AGAIN!), and returning 3 weeks later, on the 9th of Jan. Kinda sad that its only 3 weeks but hey... what am I supposed to do? I'm not gungho enuff to miss 1 week of classes!
Tentatively, I'm booked till Wed the 20th... haha... and no, I am not kidding. Shiyun and I are already pouring thru food blogs to see where are the places we can actually afford to eat at. This rawks. I can do it whole day long! 3 and a half months to go... 25 days... 10 million calories... be afraid... be VERY afraid.
