AUTUMN WHERE DID YOU GO?

Just yesterday it was a swelteringly hot 30 degrees and today the temperature plummetted down to 18 degrees. Autumn totally disappeared! But nah. It'll come back the next few days haha. But today was really like hell. My hands froze (couldn't write notes properly), nose blocked (every breath I took was piercing pain) and I dared not put on my ankle wrap 'cos I don't want it to get wet and all.

Yep, I'm using an ankle wrap at the moment. Didn't sprain my ankle but it is kinda injured a little. Probably due to all the random dancing I've been doing at home. Not to mention how I usually love to play around with my ankle. Sounds weird but I don't know how to explain better. It's a little better now but I'll still put the wrap on while I'm at home just in case.

ANYWAYS! Daddy got me a new laptop in Singapore! My current laptop (with its external fan) feels like it's just gonna explode any moment. I've upgraded it to its maximum ram and it's obviously not enough.

THIS IS THE LAPTOP! It HAS to be red. Yep. Haha. My uncle went with Daddy to buy the laptop for me so he kinda did the necessary stuff as well. Like, upgraded the ram to 3GB, installed all the anti-virus stuff (hopefully NOT AVG) and did all the other necessary upgrades. So the laptop, originally at S$1999, cost S$2226. Cheaper and better than my current laptop.

This is also partially why I'm blogging now haha. I'm damn scared my internet doesn't recognise my new laptop. I hope there won't be such problems! My internet gave me a lot of problems when I did the installations and stuff. Argh. Okok I should start at where I left off previously.

Last Tuesday, after school ended at 5pm, I drove down to Murdoch area and picked HY up at around 8pm. What for? STEP UP 2, YO! Drove back up to Innaloo again haha. I really gotta thank HY. If not for her, I wouldn't have been able to finish the last 2 hours of my 25 hours so easily since dance practices had ended.

We watched Step Up 2 with Jamie's cell. THE MOVIE WAS SO HAWT! If you're looking for a good storyline, GO HOME. I have to admit the storyline is barely there but THE DANCE WAS TOO GOOD TO REFUSE! The whole time I was controlling myself from exploding! I would really want to dance in the rain one day, whatever dance it is.

Sent HY home after the movie. Down and up again. 25 hours done! Woohoo! But I realised I didn't take any photos with HY =(. Another time k!

Wednesday was pretty crap. It was the start of my period of tough time. Online tests, a demanding friend from Singapore, tutorial questions (for 4 units) to be done that week, misunderstandings, upgrading of microsoft office (which failed THREE times). I went to bed crying to God for help. It wasn't easy. Really.

Thursday, after school ended at 12noon and after sending Baby off to work at the bus stop, I walked back to Broadway to meet Mummy. Got my log book signed by a pharmacist and bought lunch back.My stewed beef noodles. Not bad! Mummy had beef bee hoon =D. After lunch, we drove down to the licensing centre at around 2.30pm to get my Hazard Perception Test (HPT) done. My parallel parking hasn't rusted! Thank goodness haha. I even had to reverse upslope but it went smoothly. Praise the Lord!

The queueing and the paper work and the test and everything took one hour. Only because it was crowded. AND I PASSED! I'm on P now! Oh yeah! =D Looking forward to my driver's license card. Hopefully it'll come within this week.

After the test, Mummy and I decided to take a walk around Harvey Norman (the other side of City West, where the licensing centre was at) to check out laptop prices. We had not decided whether or not we wanted to get a new laptop then. But after walking around, we were super hot we decided to drop by a cafe for coffee. ICED coffee.Mummy had iced chocolated in the end haha. Hers is the one with whipped cream. I had iced coffee. Mine with ice cream. Oooooh shiok!

That night was still pretty crappy although I felt a tinsy bit better since the misunderstanding was cleared. I still felt really drained. But I knew God will pull me through. I just needed time.

Friday morning, after lecture, after handing in my business stats tutorial questions, I met Baby in school. He went to school to do the transfer of money for his car. Baby drove Mummy and I to Subi in his boss' magna.

Had lunch at the market again. Had nachos again. We ought to go somewhere else the next time. Did our usual marketing (in the market and in Woolworths). I bought stuff for refreshments for cell later in the night.

Washed Hammie in the afternoon. I spent at least a good whole half an hour on all 4 wheels. All because I don't have a proper brush to scrub them with. Argh. I'm in desperate need of a wiper too.

Cooked for cell, some people came over earlier, cell started around 7.45pm.
After cell, I decided not to go for Mambo 'cos I was too lazy heh. Oh and the rest of the pictures are here.

Baby came over to my place after cell to get the pasta I packed for him. Then we went out to surprise Max 'cos it was his birthday the next day on Saturday. Took quite a bit of photos but nope, they're not ready. Went home after hanging around for about 45 minutes.

Only slept at 4am. Heh. 'Cos I wasn't ushering the next day and I totally didn't realise it was that late already.

Saturday. Church. Dress code: black and white. I finally managed to sit in the whole service. Managed to humble myself one level down that day. Was really tough. The tears I tried to hold back, my feet almost refusing to listen. But I managed to surrender everything to God. What the speaker spoke totally related to how I have been feeling the past few days.

After service, I was supposed to go for the dance dinner but Rachel and Wilson were not going and I didn't want to drive down alone so I decided to just join my zone for dinner. At. Uncle Billy's. AGAIN. Freak.

After dinner, after bubble tea, I sent Shawn, Rebecca, Lydia and Weiping back. Stalled 4 times. Twice at CCP at the barrier (THAT STUPID HUMP!), once along Roe St 'cos I entered into the wrong gear (HAHA) and the last time after sending Rebecca back, reversing up a slope. Oh wells. Practice is what I need. Heh.

Talked to Baby for a while on the phone, then sms-ed him a bit before going to sleep.

Sunday was Karen's birthday BBQ and I'll blog about that another time! With pictures too =).

AAAAARGH!

I really need more time. Dance practices may be over but my time just never seem to be enough. Nvm. I'm here to blog about what I wanted to blog almost a week ago haha.

Last Wednesday there was Zion Leader's Meeting (ZLM) again because we wanted to be prepared for Easter Service. After the meeting, there was supposed to be a dance practice for the stage people BUT only 4 of the 7 of us were there and only 3 of the 4 of us practised because Karen had to talk to some people. So in the end we only marked through the counts and that was it.

On Thursday, after having lectures and tutorials from 8-12, Wei Xian was supposed to help me with my stats lab but I couldn't sign in to the sch's computer and I really couldn't stand it anymore so we ended up having lunch together instead haha!

We took away from Broadway. When we got our food, I went to buy stuff from IGA 'cos I was gonna bake that afternoon.Wei Xian had lunch with me at my place. He had stewed beef noodles while I had beef bee hoon. When we were done he went back and I started baking. I was tight with time so I only managed to do the base. Heh.

There was dance practice as usual that night. Really. Tiring.

Friday. Good Friday? Yep. With dance practice at 9am. Haha. I have to say just the dance practice is really fun. But the before and the after were really crap. It just felt like I was about to just collapse any moment. No joke. Not to mention late night studyings. Hmmm.

Dance practice ended on time that day 'cos lotsa people had to leave for cell outings. My cell? Nah. No outing no nothing. Haha. In the afternoon I just continued baking. I did the cheese part. Then night time was cell!

Rest of the pictures here. As usual, I zonked out that night. Gah.

Saturday, went down to Curtin for practice at around 12.30pm. Danced for about and hour and all the dancers (and Mummy) went to Karawara to buy lunch back to Zion Centre to eat. The moment I got into the shopping centre, I saw this.

Hahaha. DAMN CUTE! Omgosh. I cannot imagine any guy wearing any of my leotards. So if you happen to read my blog, and happen to be a guy, and happen to take any of my leotards by mistake, please DON'T try them on. Don't wanna own any stretched leotards hahaha.

Anyways, dance practice lasted till about 4pm. Craziness. Oh wells. Got back, wanted to crash but ended up just using the computer. Oh wells. Haha!

Sunday was the day! Easter service! We were supposed to reach by 7.30am but we were late due to some last minute hic-ups. Good thing most of us have done our make ups and just needed to touch up a little here and there.

Each performance was given about 1-2 tries on stage only. Pictures were taken before the dance. Man, the memories. =(

Service was really great. The dance went on well! As you can tell, I wasn't the best haha. Lotsa hard work has to be done on my style and technique. It's still too ballet-ish. Hahaha.

After service, Baby and I just walked around the carnival. Both of us had char siew rice while Mummy had nasi lemak (she said it wasn't that great). I also had candy floss! It's been a while! Ok, no. Maybe half a year. Heh. But still! I loved it ^^.

Baby kept trying to drag me into a lot of the games. ALL, in fact. But obviously I didn't play any heh. I knew I could've gone into the water dunking machine but I didn't want to =P.

The rest of the day was spent at Baby's place. He was supposed to go for service at St. Thomas Moore at 5.45pm but both of us were too tired. We slept our whole afternoon away lol. Before we knew it, it was about 8.30pm already. Went Tiamo's for dinner.

The Tiamo's pictures are still with Baby so don't blame me for the lack of photos haha. We had seafood misto. It was enough to feed THREE people. So we obviously couldn't finish heh. We also had a cup of wine each. Chardonnay. Perfect with the seafood.

After dinner, we went back to Currie Hall and watched soccer with the other Currie Hall people. MAN U WON! 3-0! Awesome awesome awesome to the max! Baby wanted to take the Supra and send me home after the match but in the end his friend, Ron (I think), took us for a drive around King's Park instead.

I. Tell. You. The Supra's engine was REALLY POWERFUL. Now I know why Baby's been so tempted by it. But I can imagine the fuel consumption. Haha. It's really up to him la. He's the one who's gonna drive his car most of the time anyways =D.

So Baby lent me his sweater and walked me home. That night was really freezing. It was already about 1.30am by the time I got home. Baby got back to Currie Hall pretty fast to watch the Arsenal vs Chelsea match haha! I wasn't really interested in that match =P.

My Monday started pretty late into the morning. Went to deliver cheesecakes haha. Yep, I finished baking it. I finished it on Saturday, in fact. Saturday was only the topping. I delivered them to quite a few people. I really hope the cheesecake's good. Heh.

Surprised Baby with his cheesecake and card in the evening. Was hiding in Jame's room for close to an hour =P. I felt really bad taking up so much of his time. But ya. Baby asked what if he didn't get back that night. HAHA I'll just walk back before sunset.

Tuesday school started. Will blog about Tuesday onwards another time. Till then!

Don't ask.

So much to do, so little time. Misunderstandings and things not happening as planned.

And you know when I don't have a proper title/sign-off, something's not right.

But no, it's not about Baby. Baby's been a darling.

HAPPY EASTER '08!

I'm not late ok! It's Easter Monday today and we've got no school! How cool! Just before you complain you guys in Singapore don't have Easter Monday holiday, think twice. Good Friday and Easter Monday are the only two public holidays we actually get off from school. All the other public holidays (which are quite a lot to speak of) listed on Australian calenders do not count as holidays for us people in the university. But then again, all our study breaks add up to almost 6 months (2 x 1 week study break each semester, 1 month winter break, close to 3 months summer break) so I'm not complaining ^^.

Easter's the reason why I've been so tight with time and tired for the past 2-3 weeks. But it was a good Easter Sunday. Will blog about the service another time. I'm just glad Baby was there =). And also thanks for the cupcake, Letitia, Eunice and Gary! It was awesome and greatly appreciated =).

This year's Easter's so different. There's actually a stage, intelligent lightings, spectecular performances and a stronger presence of God. Last of all, Baby was there, encouraging me before the service started. Can't stand loving him!

TIME.

I need more time.

I need more time to study. Although I've been studying more than usual, it's still not enough to achieve what I'm aiming for.

I need more time to sleep. Other than Tuesday nights, I usually sleep between 4-5 hours a day.

I need more time to bake/cook. Haven't cooked/baked anything nice although something's in the process now.

I need more time to keep myself sane. I'm so tight with time I feel like breaking down. Especially last night.

I need more time with Baby. I really do =(.

LAST WEEKEND (SORT OF).

Was supposed to meet Mishi for coffee at 3pm on Thursday but I was studying till I forgot about my lunch so Mishi picked me up at 2pm instead to make sure I ate my lunch haha. 6 Clicks West's a damn great place for coffee and lunch and breakfast. Best of all, their breakfast is all-day. Hence I managed to get a breakfast tart. I LOVED the kidney beans in it. Eggs were made to perfection as well. AWESOME! Did I mention the coffee was STRONG and SMOOTH?

Dance practice that night was as usual. Pretty tiring for me, actually, 'cos I hadn't been sleeping well. So by the end of the practice, when all the adrenaline had drained away, I was like a zombie. Literally. No joke.

Friday morning, after my 10-11am lecture, I drove Baby, Mummy and Aunty Lucy down to Subiaco for marketing. On the way there was easy. Note: ON THE WAY THERE. But parking was a bit of a hoo-haa. Heh. Not gonna say why.

The ladies bought fruits, Baby bought a bit of vegetables here and there for his steamboat that night. We then had lunch. Baby and I had a spicy mince gozleme and a piperade with cheese crepe. I ate about two-thirds of everything 'cos I was terribly hungry 'cos of dance the previous night and Baby wasn't all that hungry.

We also walked around Woolworths, as usual. Mummy said she saw Frances but I couldn't find her! She couldn't find me either haha! Ok and I tell you on the way back, up on the slope, there was a mini jam. SICK! I stalled once. Sent Baby back to Currie Hall, then Aunty Lucy to her house, then home.

Studied a bit before some of my cell members came over for worship practice at around 6pm I think. Cell started at 7.30pm.As usual, the rest of the photos are here. Didn't take much photos that night 'cos I was really tired. After all the food, I just sat down on my bean-bag and stoned. Brain totally shut down.

Saturday was church day. I ushered again, third week in a row. That was when I found out I was switched into Derell's team. I enjoy serving under Derell AND Mavis so I didn't have much of an issue as to whose team I was actually in.

Good thing I managed to sit through the whole service. Mark was a terribly good speaker. Not forgetting he looks like a younger version of Dr. House. Ok, go ahead, ooooo, aaaaaaaa, omgooooosh! Lol. He IS that great. Probably even better than Dr. House, anytime. But nothing, no one, rather, beats Michael Battersby. Michael Battersby's like the oven and I'm like the cheese. Haha.

After service, joined the zone for dinner. Didn't go for dance practice 'cos Mummy demanded me to rest. Had Uncle Billy's (Like. AGAIN.). AND THEN EASYWAY FOR BUBBLE TEA. Mummy wants me to cut down on my in take of bubble tea. She thinks I'm drinking too much and that that's the reason why my body system's acting very weirdly. Crap.

Crashed once I got home that night.

Sunday was Creative Arts Ministry (CAM) Vision Day at Curtin. I drove down, with Mummy beside me, of course. Oh and Wei Ping, Eunice and Henry at the back. I miss the passanger seats =(. They look really comfy to me.

ANYWAYS I joined FuZion Dance after we broke into our groups and I dragged Henry in haha! We learnt the Freshies' dance, which was also the previous Easter's dance and so I knew the dance already. A few of the new people kinda like...had muscle aches and cramps. Heh.

After CAM, the dancers went down to Zion Centre for dance practice. I had not eaten a single thing that day so I walked over to Karawara (after parking my car at Zion Centre haha) to get bubble tea. Cafe latte ice blended was DAMN SHIOK! But still. Easyway's pearls are still better. Sorry. Haha.

Dance practice ended at around 6pm plus. Went home and cooked dinner.Pork and cheese omelette. I so wasn't given enough pork to cook it with. But the cheese was awesome. The liquid-y milky looking stuff is the cheese. The egg was totally cooked. I NEEDED MORE PORK. Oh and I forgot my seasoning. HAH I was too hungry so I just cooked it as fast as possible and gobbled it down.

Had a freakin' 8-9am lecture on Monday (yesterday), as usual, afterwhich I went home to nap, then back to school at noon for my Microeconomics tutorial. Met WerX at around 1pm for lunch. Brought him to 6 Clicks West.No pattern =(.

WerX's moroccan chicken salad.

My chicken with zucchini and I-forgot-what turkish bread. THE SAUCE (on top of the sandwich in the picture) WAS DAMN GENG! I bet they made it themselves. Coffee was as great as before!

Dance practices have lasted from 2 hours to 3 hours lately. Mainly 'cos I'm doing both parts of the dance (Yep, there're two parts. Ok, enough information.). Pretty tiring but I made sure I have enough sleep so that I won't die haha. I'm so looking forward to Easter!
A random picture of some flowers outside Zion Centre. I thought they were really pretty hence I took a picture =P.

Restaurant: 6 Clicks West
Location: Somewhere along Hampden Road, Nedlands, WA 6009. Very near Jester's.
Beverages: Coffee's really great. Not sure if they serve other drinks.
Appetizers: Didn't check them out.

Notes:
Overall Rating: 7.5/10. MUST TRY for coffee lovers. DIE DIE MUST TRY if you're a coffee AND sandwich lover.

SO, AGE?

Was having a chat with a few of the other dancers during a break about age and I was going on and on (as usual) about how people normally guess I'm 21-23. The youngest they'll guess will be 20 unless they have sufficient information to guess I'm 19. And this was what happened:

Hannah: So how old are you actually?
De Xin: Haha! I'm. Erm. Wait. You guess?
Hannah: Uh twentyyyyyyy *pause* one?
De Xin: SEEEEE!

Saw it coming. Don't worry, I'm used to it.

YAY!

Just previously I was talking about wanting to get that The Essential Pasta Cookbook and I GOT IT! Many thanks to Borders, I got it for only A$19.77! It was already selling a wee bit cheaper at A$32.95, and then I got another 40% off 'cos of a voucher I got. Yayers! Didn't need to save that much ^^.

SINCE LAST WEEKEND.

Here's another super long post. And, after being adviced by a friend, I shall first warn you that this post is gonna be another post with pictures of food. Not all pictures will be of food of course but there'll be a few here and there that'll make you hungry =).

Last Friday Baby followed Mummy and I down to Subiaco. We took a bus down because Aunty Lucy's car (Dimas' car, actually) couldn't fit all of us 'cos Faith, Yihui and Ivan were also going. By the time we got there it was already close to 12 so we ate first.I had some pupusam (I think that's what it's called), Baby had burritos and Mummy had chicken and mushroom crepe.

After lunch we did our marketing at the Subi market itself and Woolworths. We then took a bus back and Baby slacked around the house for a while before I walked him out to the bus stop for him to take a bus down to work. I wasn't left with anything to do so I just lazed around the whole afternoon until Janice, Sarah and Wan Ming came over for worship practice a few hours before cell started at 7.30 at my place.More pictures here! Trust me, these are just a few of the many pictures I took haha.

Saturday was church day. Ushered again that week. At that time I was told I was in Mavis' time. Ok from that you can tell I'm no longer in Mavis' team haha for the convenience of one of the members so I took her place in Derell's team.=).

Was in charge of refreshments again so I didn't manage to catch the whole sermon again. Oh wells. All for God. After service we went Saigon for dinner. Had a cup of avocado milkshake (WOAH GENG I TELL YOU!) and rice vermicilli with lemon grass and beef. SHIOK! But I finished my milkshake before my food came so by the time my food came, I was so full I only had half of it.

When we were done with Saigon, being me, I went over to Easyway with Marianne and Faith to get our bubble tea. I drank so fast I finished it before I got to Baby's place. Faith's mum sent me there =) thanks!

Watched a soccer match with Baby and his hall mates at one of the common rooms. Man U lost =(. Crap. I hung around Baby's room for a while more before he walked me back. Had to wear Baby's slippers back haha 'cos I couldn't survive on my heels. I accompanied him on the phone again when he walked back home.

Went for service again on Sunday morning 'cos it was a different guest speaker. Finally I managed to sit through one whole service. After service we went Happy Meal for lunch before Max dropped me off at Zion Centre for my dance practice. Thanks, Max!

Dance practice last for about 2.5 hours. Probably a bit more. Mark sent me and Rachel home. I showered and got ready to go meet baby 'cos it was our first month =).

Baby called when he was at the bus stop in the city waiting for his bus so I started walking out to Currie Hall. On the way, I got pretty scared so I decided to walk along Broadway in the end. It didn't help a lot but it was definitely better than Fairway. But guess what! I bumped into Jon Chia. He offered to send me to Currie Hall.

As if not paiseh enough, he offered to pick Baby up from the city since I still had to wait for Kenneth at Currie Hall. Baby was also super paiseh la! Thanks so much man, Jon.

So when we got back to Baby's place, Baby took a shower and put on nice clothes! We were all hyped up about going to Northbridge for our dinner. So we took a (last) bus down to Northbridge at around 9.15pm. I knew something was not right so when we reached Wellington bus station, we went over to the stands to see what time was the last bus gonna leave. 9.40pm. Lagi best. So both of us happily took a free ride back to Nedlands area again haha!

We walked down Hampden Road only to find the street totally dead. Like. D-E-A-D, dead, y'know, DEAD. In the end we ordered Broadway Pizza, had them delivered, and ate them at his place's kitchen. Meat lovers and portofino. I SUPER LOVE THE PORTOFINO! I hope I spelt it right.

Spent a while at Baby's room before he walked me back, again. He was so super dead tired that night 'cos of soccer =\. I felt so bad, I tell you. Really. And all I could do was to accompany him on the phone again when he walked back. =(

MONDAY MONDAY MONDAY! So excited ok! After my freakin' 8-9am lecture, I went home and crashed 'cos the previous night I only had 3.5 hours of sleep. But I woke up in time to meet Mummy at Broadway Fair at noon after her line dancing. We took a bus down to the city to get a bank cheque, searched around a bit for a new card reader (thank goodness it's working now) and took a bus down to VICTORIA PARK!

Okok, you guys should know why I was all so excited haha but nope, not yet. We didn't know where to get off the bus so we randomly got off along Shepperton Road (parallel to Vic Park), and walked into Albany Highway and walked all the way up to Makan Makan for lunch. We wanted to go Catalino's at first but we wanted to try something new. Or rather, Mummy wanted to try something new haha. So we climbed up the slope and got to Makan Makan.

When we finally reached, we were so exhausted by the heat we quickly ordered our food AND DRINKS and set down.Mummy had iced nescafe (She paid A$3 for that?! I can make that for you everyday, Mummy! And I can just charge you A$1.50, how's that? Half price leh!) while I had teh tarik. Woah shiok. The closest I can get to teh peng. And what about food?I had TOM YAM! Looks spicy? The spiciness was just bare minimum. I wanna try the clear totally clear tom yam. See how long I can stand =D.

Mummy had hor fun goreng. Haha it sounded funny to me. Hor fun is like hokkien I think. Goreng is malay. No offence, really, but it sounded funny together. But it really tasted good. Two thumbs up!

When we were done with our lunch, we walked down slope (MUCH easier) back to John Hughes and I collected Hammie! Test drove it around for a while before I sent Patrick (the car dealer)back to John Hughes and drove Hammie back home. Patrick actually gave me a bottle of white wine from Margaret River and flowers for Mummy. So nice of him! This what I call good service, people. Learn!

Didn't do much that afternoon. Baby came over in the evening after his work (and after he showered) to study. He also brought over Subway sandwiches from his work place! One for himself and one for me! But I wasn't hungry so I kept it for the next day.

Baby wanted to finish studying by 10.30 so that we can go for a spin in Hammie but by the time he was done, it was close to midnight haha and we went over to Weijun's/Max's place for Weijun's birthday surprise.

When we got back, both of us were really tired but Baby still went to watch tv. I ended up dozing off a little on his lap haha. Then we crashed in my room (him on my bed and me on Mummy's ex-bed) where I repeatedly asked him to remove his contacts but he repeatedly say he'll walk back and in the end he slept over till next morning HAHA!

Next morning, Baby walked me to school then he went home (it was on the way). Was supposed to have coffee with Mishi at around 1pm that day during both Baby's and my break but Mishi couldn't make it so both of us crashed at Baby's place. Trust me, both of us were dead tired.

Woke up just in time for both of us to rush down for our 3pm lectures. When my lecture was done, I rushed to the library to grab a savoury muffin (my first bite of the day), only managed to eat half, and rushed for my tutorial. When my tutorial ended, I went home first (Baby only ended at 6 =\). Had the super CHEEEEESY love sandwich Baby made for me the previous day.It's steak and cheese sandwich actually, except that Baby added SUPER A LOT of cheese. Like all the cheeses available. You can see the different colours and shapes haha!

Left home at 6pm to pick people up for dance practice.

Picked Rachel up first, then went to pick Wilson up. Got lost along Shepperton Road, Mummy took over, picked Wilson, got lost picking Joey up, but still picked her up, went to Usha's place to pick up Zion Centre's keys, reached Zion Centre 20 minutes late and dance practice started.

When practice ended, I was so tired Mummy had to drive. Crashed almost immediately when I got home.

Didn't do much on Wednesday. Just met up with Baby for lunch in the guild before my 3-5pm Management Accounting lecture. Had dance practice again that night. Yep, I was terribly tired. Haha. But all for the glory of God.

Overall Rating: 7.5/10. Would have given an 8 if not for the service. But it's still a must try. Somewhere you are willing to go back again and again despite the terrible service.
