Time flies – we’re in the last week of April already.
The past couple of days have been OK – not too eventful, but still enjoyable nonetheless. Had my term test on Thursday and I thought that the test was not completely undoable, but I still think that having a closed-book test is dumb at the postgraduate level.
On Friday I decided that I want to go out of my mind for a while, so I took a walk from office back home – a whole 2 hours’ of walk! The great thing was that the walk wasn’t entirely painful or anything like that, in fact it was quite enjoyable as the weather wasn’t very hot. Though there was a bit of rain (which led me to almost wanting to give up when I reached Kowloon Bay), but the cooling effect that it brought made me continue walking. It was actually quite fun to be walking home, and I think I might do this crazy 2-hour walk every week. When I was walking back, I was having that reminiscence of my year in Shanghai, when I also walked quite a fair bit. And since it took me just one more hour to walk home than to actually take public transport, I thought it was quite worth it!
I went to the Shatin Racecourse with Sis yesterday to watch the races. Well, to be exact, we went there to collect souvenirs as they were giving out this nice little pin for the grand race yesterday. We had a bit of fun betting, and my sister came off with a winning bet that saw her pocket $41! After Racecourse, we went to New Town Plaza and had lunch at Fish and Co. It was heartwarming to see Fish and Co finally opening in Hong Kong, and I really miss the great seafood they serve. The sambal tasted a bit different from what I was used to in Singapore, but it was still nice.
Came back to school in the evening and attended a Christian talk at the AC Hall. I must say that the talk was actually very mind-stimulaing and it prompted me to really think a lot. I guess every once in a while I can do with such mind stimulations.
Feeling quite sleepy, but I still have one afternoon to go.
