Hello everyone, now that I've finished exams I can officially slack without feeling guilty. And maybe start getting my butt back into shape. First day post-exams has been rather purposeless. I woke up, telling myself that I will:
1. Get to Stanford to find myself a proper guidebook for Spain and start planning
2. Go to Ralph Lauren to exchange my gift from dear maria
3. Visit Tash at work
4. Visit Oisin at work
Only did number 4 (sorry Tash ;_;) because I crashed and died in my bed after breakfast wtf. It's only 22:43 right now but I am feeling absolutely knackered.
So yes, met Oisin at work (because his phone ran out of battery and he dropped me a panic message) and we had Wagamama (i.e. shit overpriced Asian food but then it wasn't too bad; at least I felt sated after our meal).
Well not really sated because I'd never be really really sated, but I was full enough not to complain about being hungry. (Poor boyfriend, I know right?)
Sorry for the shit photos; I usually would not even bother to take photos of such meals but I was taking them for our dear Andrew Wijaya who came to London to party and meet his girlfriend, while forgetting all about his friend of many years over here >:(
Andd we got free tickets to watch Arrietty which was one of the most absolutely adorable movies. The ending was so sad that I was crying my eyes out hoping that my boyfriend wouldn't find out because the cinema's just so fucking dark but obviously he did. Like really, how embarrassing can I actually get.
It was a really sweet show though :) and I guess I was just really unlucky - that the Japanese movie month fell in May. in line with the premiere of The Wind Rises, which was amazing but really really sad too. If not I'd be spending all my money at cinemas :P
Went to Notes at Covent Garden afterwards because I felt too sinful to have any more drinks (but then decided coffee was acceptable because I am biased like that). I've always wanted to go there (given how I am at Covent Garden all the time) but like many things in life, you don't actually really bother :P
The coffee was alright? I guess at the end of the day, I am just really really biased towards Monmouth and I am not gonna lie. Trying to persuade my boss to start using Monmouth's roasts but he says that it is too old fashioned. All these hipsters.
They had amazing Pannacotta though. It was like smooth, creamy, silky... tofu :P (no photos though, because I was so excited I just went omnomnomnom)
I guess that's it really. Hope to have more interesting things to post after I get my life up and going again, and I hope I will not end up crashing in bed like I did today. I hate it when I do things like that - find it a waste of my time. Labels: daily, days of summer, food, movie
