His Salmon My Pork Knuckle, cabbage and Rosti German Beer! They were nice! We met up for dinner yesterday. I was so exhausted by evening as I had two meetings in the afternoon, things to do in the morning, and poor sleep the night before. I felt like I could just fall asleep sitting on the bus.  But it was arranged, plus I wanted to see him la. Also, maybe I wanted to try to be like Williamnyk, so to many things in one day haha.  Good that he was thinking of having a hair cut, so he didn't have to wait for me doing nothing.  He suggested German, as he had this voucher and said that he's been and the food was quite good.  I think I had never had German previously??  I was expecting like a fine-dining European setting, but it was actually like an everyday cafe, except that it's serving German food. Business was good. Crowd was mostly Whites.  Germans are famous for their beer, and they had a long list of beers for us to...

5 more days to home

Spotted @ Kinokuniya Sydney  5 more days to home!!  Had lunch with some ex-uni mates today in the City. Had Teriyaki Fish with rice (with two slices of Salmon sashimi, piece of radish, bowl of miso soup, and salad) for $13.80. The teriyaki fish was quite nice, tasted fresh.  Walked around the city afterwards. There's less people in Sydney compared to last week which is a good thing.  Before I went home, I went to pee and two guys, one on each end of the row of urinals, were playing with their dicks! I knew things like this were happening but rarely so obvious. I stood next to one of them, quickly finished my business and left.  With 5 more days to home, the feeling is mixed.  I miss seeing my family, miss spending time with them. I haven't been in my new house for more than 3 months (cumulatively). And my bedroom is still very new.  But at the same time, I am worried that I will be worried.  I have got...

Home Testing

Picked up this leaflet last week at the sexual health clinic. Leaflet _ Home testing trial Leaflet _ Home testing trial They are now recruiting study participants to trial HIV testing at home. There's even a website, so if you are interested in knowing more you can have a look there.  The test that's used in this study is the Oraquick test. It involves taking swabs from your mouth (not your saliva but tissue/lining inside your mouth. And it is an antibody-only test, unlike Alere Determine (involves pricking your finger for a few drops of blood) that tests for both antigen and antibody and it's also a rapid test. Having said that, it's still better than nothing right?  The nurse told me that they are having difficulty getting people to sign up for this study. I would like to sign up because I think there's no harm in doing so  and I know it's only a procedural thing for them to have this study to get it approved here in A...

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...
