Growing fat

On Wednesday, there was an easter outreach. I had 5 chocolatey muffins and 3 easter egg chocolates.

On Friday, I had no mood to cook lunch so I had some a custard tart and a muffin in the civic. Then there was the Chinese dinner with the seniors. There were like a lot of dishes: chicken soup, vegetable, sweet sour pork, braised lamb, crispy chicken with skin, tofu, and a vege+meehun-like thing. Was really full. And was really happy to get that much of Chinese food at an ok price of 17 dollars.

Then on Saturday, there was a malaysians' picnic day. We had chicken rendang with rice, and chocolates and snacks. And later in the evening, we had caramel tart (as a birthday cake thing) and hot cross buns and bacon with bread.

And on Sunday, I ate the chocolates that were given free on Saturday while studying: Turkish Delight, Snickers, some crispy chocolate thing. And then there was pot luck dinner. A huge amount of baked rice (made with the white pasta sauce) and vege and fish and green bean soup.
And then at night there was free hot chocolate/tea/coffee (i only had hot choc) as well as tim tams.

I am so overloaded with high-fat food.

I don't think the twice a week exercise is enough.
Must abstain from free food!

Or wake up early on another weekday for exercise.

Essay Completion Happiness

I'm soooo satisfied that I'm done with the essay. I think it is of at least decent quality given that I've put in at least 18 hours into it.

First essay, and research-like work done in a long time.
Hopefully it is better than the last one.

Now I've to get back to school work.

Cow Milk

So here in Australia, milk is really cheap.
The price of the cheapest meal here (half-foot Subway) is like AUD3.50.
The price of the cheapest meal in Msia is probably something like roti telur which is about MYR 2.00?

The price of the milk here is AUD2.00/2L to AUD2.30/1L = AUD1.00 - 2.30 per litre == MYR3-6.30
The price of milk in Msia is MYR7.00-9.00 per litre.

And so, I've been eating cereal frequently. Because it's a cheap and nice breakfast.

However, after reading this, and recollecting my aunt's advice against drinking milk, I think I'll buy less milk.

Yeah, drinking hormones with the milk isn't a good thing.

Wear your ACS

I didn't see anyone wearing it. :(

However, apparently some wore an ACS tie, which probably wouldn't be noticeable from afar.
And I found out a fellow resident in my hall went to the same church as me for two years. Haha.
