feeling very full now..from our dinner of shao rou fan!haha i recently discovered this place in maroubra selling duck and char siew and shao rou..never been too big a fan but i think this place is really GOOD. hahah and now my tummy's feeling all warm and i'm feeling rather sleepy.

been working quite abit this week..woke up this morning to the sound of my phone and my boss's voice..asking if i could come in today..haha i think he felt quite bad for waking me up cos he apologised several times throughout the day...but oh well. i'm happy to earn the extra money..especially since i think i got caught the other night running a red light :( boooo. i know i know its not anyone else's fault but mine. but to be fair, i was following my friend's car back home so i didn't want to lose track of him..and the stupid light just happened to change as he crossed the junction. and so i just pressed the accelerator on instinct and suddenly there was a collective "oh no!" from everyone else in my car as the flash of the camera went off. haha honestly, i didn't notice the flash but i think since 3 other people saw it i can safely assume i did get caught. haaai. and i know red light fines here are crazy - my friend told me she got fined at least $100+? haha so the next day at work, i was just thinking that my pay for that day would be going to that stupid fine.

i am enjoying work at least :) everyone's very nice and i at least feel like i'm doing my bit to contribute to society. the last few months have just been about ILP..and somehow its just felt pretty aimless and unmotivating. i love music..but thats just been a side thing i guess..i just don't see the point of dedicating one whole year to research work..not that research isn't important, its just i know i don't want to do this, so why does the faculty have to make us do this? plus i wasn't given much choice in my topic of interest..

anyway, have been seeing many many groups of pilgrims for WYD walking through the city..haha with their colourful flags and banners and clothes..today i walked past this group from spain; they were wearing their national flag as capes and yelling out some song (i assume in spanish)..hahah and curiously i've been approached quite a few times for directions..haha do i look like a local?
