skipped church and continued to work on 2209 literature review in the morning, went to cambodia 'compulsory' meeting at 230, then straight to uni to continue working on the assignment. moved from scibry to mcl at around 6... then ended up going home at around 9/10ish. slept at 5am - latest i've ever stayed up for an assignment i think.

woke up at 8ish to get to uni by 9. drank my soup outside science cafe while chris read through my lit review. group meeting from 10am, handed in lit review at 11:45am, assessed lab debate 12pm, home to recover from lack of sleep. watched an awesome ep of criminal minds while painting my nails with some opi, suzie says feng shui.

remembered how much my dog loves smackos. no joke. the commerical doesn't lie. 

jacko goes wacko for smackos.

woke up... watered the plants, started dad's car, played with the dog, fed the dog brekky... off to uni i went, picked up kfc on the way for the bf and myself. waited outside physics for josh to finish class to give him his food, bumped into chris who was on the way to class. went to my stats class, then MCL to work on stats assignment. home for tutoring.

woke up, went to uni, picked up red rooster on the way for the bf and i. met up with him to eat, the straight to MCL to work on assignment again. i hate when MCL is completely booked out - all the computers are not even being USED. i don't know why they don't leave one block free -___-" followed josh to reid for about 15 minutes, until rob called me and said it had unbooked as it had just passed 12pm... worked on assignment, stat class at 2, tute at 3, camped at MCL all night with these two guys that i befriended from my stats class. while one went to pick up some equipment or something, i went to dinner with rob...

it's really confusing because there are three robs i know this semester, two are in my stats class (asian rob and tall rob) with one of them also doing psyc (tall rob), and then there's the other rob whose doing psyc and is in my lab (white rob) and i did the debate with. but yeah, so i have these three robs in my phone address book, and i keep accidently messaging / calling the wrong one.. zzz. 

so anyways, asian rob insisted we went to grilled because he dislike broadway :( and wanted to eat proper food.

the meat pattie thing is quite healthy o___O...

the chips are good!

looking at their production line style reminded me of something we learnt in mgmt about specialisation and when you do the same small thing over and over again (e.g. spread the bun with sauce) it gets boring, repetitive and job satisfaction decreases.

adam joined us back after picking up his thingo and then we camped at MCL til about 1am.

woke up a bit after 11... reached uni at 1ish... called work to ask if i could come in later... went to visit lecturer for assignment help... went to reid to photocopy stuff and bumped into helen who was heading to work and i asked her if she needed a lift since she worked in the same shopping center as i... still had a bit of time so went back to mcl for a while then left to go to work... it was quiet so i asked if i could leave early. went home, cooked rice, showered, packed lunch, fed the dog, made tea, left to uni. camped til just after 2am. went home, slept at 3am

woke up at 9:30... reached uni at 11:10am. went through stats assignment one last time before handing it in, worked on stats lab for that week. went for lunch at 1pm with adam and asian rob. $8.50 asian buffet... not far from uni either. errr food wasn't awesome. but $8.50 buffet? what do you expect?

went back to uni, printed a map of how to get to the airport at eng. called chris who just finished class and was about to head into the city. so figured i'd might as well tag along since i had an hour to kill. waited for him, drove to nb, walked around looking for mooncake [SIGH. surprised it was quite hard to find the type i was looking for]

walked him to k3g for his haircut. picked up this mooncake that i had settled on while walking back to the car.

pretty proud i made it to the airport from the city. considering i've never driven that route before. google maps on your phone is so handy. uber hate traffic though. cars were barely moving on tonkin.

ate some mooncake while waiting for parents at the airport. picked them up.. drove into that "pick up" bay to see my dad's worried/horrified  face at the front/side bit of the car. kinda freaked out thinking i had dented it unknowingly. but it was because the tyre was flat. when we got home dad checked it and it had a nail in it... [PHEW it was the day my parents got back and not while i was driving  home from uni at 2am haha]

anyways. parents are back. YAY for homecooked meals. and new shoes. and no more needing to feed the dog and water the plants. *hugs parents* you really learn to appreciate them when they're not around and you have to fend for yourself.
