DAY 63

Nov 3

1) Today was a very light day for me in terms of studies. Just three lessons and we were done! As usual, woke up and got ready for class before 8 a.m. Mind you, I slept at 3.00 a.m. plus on the same day, so it is no mean feat haha.

2) After the first lecture was an hour break. Took the opportunity to grab a really hearty breakfast at AK. Henry's. After that, it was two consecutive lectures, before we got to go home! The only reason today was sooooo lax is because we have our second mid-term quiz tomorrow! So we have three mid-term quizzes, before the finals on the first week of December.

3) Went to Dicey's for lunch with my friends. I had the battered cod today and it was great as usual. Really crispy batter and soft, flaky fish - unlike the usual mushy type that is the bane of many fish shops I've sampled. So with lunch settled, I came home to start studying.

4) Soon, it was dinner time. Went down to cook rice as usual, but with a different type of sauce: madras curry sauce! Tasted very, very good in my (unbiased) opinion hehe. Then it was back to the books, for the remainder of the night. Tomorrow is another quiz, and also another feather in my cap. Goodnight, and thanks for reading!

 A full Irish today, but that's because

I didn't have anything to eat since my lunch yesterday!!

Cooking has become less of a chore, 

and more of an avenue to express my culinary creativity XD

DAY 41

Oct 12

1) Today was a normal day. Went to RCSI for our first lecture, before heading to AK. Henry's to do revision, since the next lecture was in an hour. Bad idea, since the aroma of food was so enticing, I got myself a full Irish breakfast. Tasted absolutely fabulous though!

2) After the next lecture, it was time for lunch. Me and my mates went to Dicey's Garden for our €5.00 student meal. I tried the cajun salmon today, with all the sides. The fish was tender and flaky, while the sauce really seasoning just tied everything together. At the rate I'm going, I could start commenting on cooking shows haha.

3) Came back to the apartment, and lo and behold, I had a tummyache. I'm quite sure it was because I overate, but I have no regrets. It was a fine lunch. Idled about for a while at the computer, before the last lecture for today, which was a small group tutorial for biomedicine.

4) An hour later, and we were done! Returned once more back home, before cooking dinner. I had rice as well as a small curry pie. With no more stomach pangs, I came back to study and continue revising for my upcoming exams. That was how my day went, and hopefully all of you reading this had a lovely day as well. Goodnight!
