"Unofficial ritual"

It's official. Driving out for a good dinner after a long tough exam has become our unofficial ritual to treat ourselves for the hardship we went through. Well...it's only our second time. The first time was after IFM in which we drove out to Kenilworth, looking for a nice pub for dinner. The second time was yesterday when we drove out to Coventry to have some persian food. Now we are ready for a third outing, immediately after the final paper on 15 May.

These outings represent the only time I can get away from my room for more than a km. For 7 days, the furthest I had been away from my room was the kitchen which is a door away. I shall repeat this same pattern for the next 4 days and I am certainly not looking forward to it. This will also mean I have not been grocery shopping for more than 2 weeks. How did I survive? Mainly on frozen food and instant noodles. In between, I found some angels, who offers me fresh cooked food and who buys me grocery. I am truly grateful for their help. Without them, I would not have the energy to carry on. Mom must have been praying real hard for someone to ensure that her daughter does not return thinner than she was.


If working is hazardous, try doing a master.
