A pot of perfectness


I'm really getting sick of halls breakfasts.

So today, I went out for breakfast with Marine and Berlin, to Flat White. It was quite an early morning, cos I had class at 10, but I really wanted something different for breakfast! I had banana bread and coffee. Honestly it wasn't that great. I thought the banana bread tasted a bit funny, and the coffee was too strong. I'm still buzzing. I think I need to ask for a weak.


I also inadvertantly missed class. Woops. I did plan on going to that 10 o'clock class, but the traffic on the way to breakfast was baaaad, so I was late to breakfast and it was rude to leave early to go to class, so I just didn't go to class.

When I got home I bought yoghurt and (more) muesli from Sainsbury's. I've gotten so used to watery, super sweet yoghurt from the dining hall that this creamy-ness was AMAZING. 
The yoghurt was really cheap as well! It was a 4 pack for £2.19, or two 4 packs for £2. 
Like combined. Not each. So THAT was a no-brainer. 
So when I settled in my room with Berlin, I had yoghurt, muesli and some canned mandarin segments. Perfect. (The first photo is the pot of yoghurt with muesli on top, I couldn't fit the mandarins in so I had to eat a bit first. And yes, muesli flakes did go everywhere)

On another note, I'm quite proud of myself for not letting things bother me today. I forgot my wallet. Which was a problem, considering I was planning on going shopping, and also my phone credit expired today and I bought a voucher from Sainsbury's the other day, and I was planning on topping it up on the bus today (which is when I noticed that I'd left my wallet at home). So I effectively had no money, AND no phone. Which also meant no map to get to Flat White. I knew where Milk Bar was and remembered that on the back of their loyalty card they had a map of them in relation to Flat White, so we popped in and got one. WIN.

And Berlin was an awesome friend and lent me money. And with it I was able to have breakfast, go to Hamleys to get a Christmas present for my little cousin in Singapore, and buy glue and a paintbrush from an art store. You know how yesterday I wanted to make something? Yeah I wasn't kidding. I really was itching to do something creative.

I made a right mess of my desk (/room).

No, I haven't been buying papers, the Europe Wall Street Journal is free outside the Management office.

And..this is the final product!


This was made out of a tube map in a newspaper and an old Cadbury's hot chocolate powder container.

In other news, the internet is fast again! *grateful*

And the weather was really nice today! Even though it started getting dark at 4.

Aaaaaand, I'm just about to start studying for the day.
That's okay. I finished my second of five essays yesterday (or the first of the four essays that I blogged about a few days ago).

Happy. Blessed
