Sunday lunch and dinner

Sleep was barely ok last night. Anyway, tried to live happy, it was a new day anyway.

Got myself a Banana,Oat &Blackberry muffin and flat white (no photo taken). 

After breakfast, went up to the balcony for some sun. Took the shirt off, allowed my back to face the sun for 10mins then turned to face the sun then turned back again. Trying to BBQ myself. But no visible tan in the end. 

As I couldn't find anyone for lunch, I decided to not wait anymore and went to this cafe nearby my place. 

I had tried the Iced Mocha here and it was super nice. They must have used espresso rather than fake coffee syrup, so it was very 'full-bodied'. When it comes to Iced coffee drinks, I always check with the barista to make sure that it's not fake coffee syrup that they are selling to me. What's the point right? I want my coffeee!!!

They also topped the Iced Mocha with a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream, making it more creamy and smooth! (more calories also)

The fried chicken burger was ok la, nice but nothing too special. But I like the generous amount of salad they served. 

Also, for such a long time in Sydney, I finally felt like I was in a foreign, exotic land while I was dining there this afternoon. 

There was a couple singing in front of the cafe. The auntie (she's not young) had a really nice voice. She sang in a foreign language, maybe Italian? Spanish? I don't know but it felt exotic and the whole atmosphere was really good. She also sang some christmas songs.

Again, for dinner, I couldn't get anyone to have dinner with me. KK's in Ho Chi Minh when I contacted him! And the others got plans! Sigh...

So I made my way to the city alone. Walked for a while as I couldn't decide what to eat. 

Ended up going to this Thai restaurant which I had been to a few months ago. 

Tonight, I had something different. For a change right? Anyway my life has been dull, so i thought no harm trying something new. 

The duck noodle looked similar to the duck noodles I had in malaysia. But it tasted different!

The sauce is sweet and slightly sour. I think there was plum sauce in it. The texture of the noodles was similar to the Gan-Lau-Mian in Malaysia, the yellowish, thin egg noodles. 

I wouldn't recommend it though...

My Progress So Far

In my previous post, I made a list of the things that I wanted to do, in order for me to start thinking and feeling positively. I have moved into this brand new studio apartment. I have also been cooking up a storm. I could now simply heat up my food when I get home from work, without having to rely on expensive take-away meals. However, I haven't been able to tick off items 3-5 yet. The apartment could be tidier. I have no one to invite over for meals. And lastly, item number 5, I don't think it will ever happen. Couple of weeks ago, after moving in, I texted Jay. I asked if it was possible to have a conversation. I told him I wasn't being emotional, I simply wanted to talk. He declined. And my last text to him was: "I have given you 10 months". Recently, on Facebook, I discovered videos made by a lady called Xandra Ooi which I found highly helpful and inspirational. She would end each video with ".... be happy, always". Her ideas made tota...

Life Too Gay

Secret Santa. Christmas gift 2013 to one of my housemates.  Had a test yesterday.  Went to the nearby Myer department store to look for a gift for the Secret Santa event at my accommodation. Budget was $10. Saw a lot of cute little inventions, most of them averaged around $20. Could have gotten something within budget but it wouldn't be as interesting so I decided to get this little duckling infuser. It's sightly over budget ($15) but it's worth the while because I think he likes it! (I think he still doesn't know that it's from me, he's also gay by the way) Gay much?  I got a box of chocolates, an assortment of mini mars bars, milky way, M&Ms, etc. To be honest, I didn't like it! I have been trying to avoid chocolates, so that I don't have to take in unnecessary calories. My chocolate quota is reserved for really down moments, when I really need to up my mood. But I still put up a smile la, my secret santa must be looking at me when I unw...

Are you the ONE?

One thing being a gay and single is that, I tend to screen for prospective Bf, every single day, every single time a man, in the right age range walks past me. (Though the age range criteria has been relaxed most of the time) It wasn't this 'serious' in the past, my brain wasn't working like this... Now, it's getting a bit excessive sometimes. Stealing glances at random guys on the bus, in the park, around the neighbourhood, in the gym...And these glances are getting more and more 'advanced'. I know perfectly, where to scan, the legs, the butts, the triceps, the forearm, etc. I know the timing. I know where to sit on the bus so that I can have an easy access to the view. And most importantly, I acted as if I didn't care, with the cool face, acted as if I'm the least possible person to steal glances at random guys. Am I perverted? weird? desperate? Maybe it's the desperateness. With guys that I haven't met, I find myself having all the...
