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.

Tomorrow
Tomorrow, I'll be flying to the furthest place I've been in 10+ years.
It's a bit exciting, but not too much.
I've met most friends I wanted to meet already. There's still two I wanted to meet but did not. But it's okay. Through these friendly gatherings, I confirmed what I thought was true, that I wasn't very close to them, or at least, was no longer able to berbual-bual happily with them. It's sad, but life's like that I suppose. I'm happy that a few of the rapports are still quite alright or better.
There was a silent moment during a meet-up, as I pondered in silence about what was said. And I guess looked at my friend, who went "awkward moment". Then it became from quiet moment to awkward moment. - It was a bit funny for it wasn't really awkward. Can't there be more conversations where there's some silence in between? But I guess playing a game that affords those silent moments would make my friend feel less awkward. Haha.
Anyway, home is good. I think I enjoyed home enough this break. Three pariah dogs definitely took a nice portion of it. ;)
Hoping to enjoy tomorrow and the days ahead, with as much diligence and discipline as I had in sec 4, or more. After all, as Julia Child said, it takes discipline to have fun. And hard routines become easy after a while.
Oh! I just realized I forgot to post dinner recipes here.
Ah. But I still remember them, so it's ok. Otherwise, I'll ask a friend. At worst, I'll check youtube. Heh.
Nitez.

Men's and Women's Brains
Hahaha. A friend just shared this youtube video. It's good for defending that men's brains aren't better than women's, and vice versa.
If you, like me, do not have good internet connection / cannot load videos, i found this page for the deaf that has the funny script (video is still better as he explains with his funny tone).
