Hair in my face. Ack!

Fancy on a budget

I made a batch that would serve 4-6 people. Costed me just under $15.

Why do we even eat out?!

P.s. In the middle of a ginormous 3 hour gap I have at uni, but I'm falling asleep. Had a chicken and mushroom pide from uni bros = oh gad, this will be the end of me. 1.5 hours to bring my game face to my next tute (class participation, great).

Chur Burger

I first heard about Chur Burger from Z. He said some they was a new burger joint that opened up and we should go check it out when it's less busy.

Man, can I just say, there's so much hype.

I feel like everyone's gone to eat there, but me. I've been waiting for Z to get back to Sydney, and today, we finally made it. His flight touched down this morning, and by lunch, we were happily munching on our burgers.

It is good.

Why?

A few reasons. Please note that I'm biased. I feel like this burger was made for me.

1. I love pulled pork. When I had a quick scan of the menu, this caught my attention. Didn't need to read any further.

2. Juicy burgers. There's nothing worse than a dry burger. This little beaut had me licking my fingers, hands and almost my elbows as the delicious combo of slow cooked meat juice and sauce trickled down my arms.

3. Hot Samoan Boys?! I never used to eat with hot sauce. I occasionally reached for the Tabasco, but wow, this chilli sauce works really well on the pork. I didn't eat chilli in the past, but I guess my taste has changed. After all, some like it hot! :P

4. It's all in the buns. Brioche buns. Need I say more?

Yes I do.

5. Fries. Hand cut? Tick. Sweet potato? Tick. Delicious flavour? BOOMTICK! I can't put my finger on the taste. The menu says it is just dressed with garlic and lime, but I thought I could taste other herbs too. Regardless, it was tasty and soft on the inside, and crispy on the edges. MmMmmm.

So overall, I'm super happy with my visit. It was pretty busy today (Friday) around lunch. Oh definitely come again.

Happiness

Still trying to figure out what makes me happy.

I have no idea.

Currently exploring the colourful world of juicing. I've been having fresh juice for about a week now. I actually have more energy, sleep better at night and overall, I feel well.

This is carrot and kumquat (with the skin on). I've experimented with spinach, kale, celery, apple, pear and grapes.

When summer swings by, I'm gonna get a nutribullet/magic bullet and actually make smoothies and stuff on-the-go. Having to clean up the juice fountain is a bit of a bitch ahaha and I feel a bit sad to toss away all the pulpy goodness (all dat fibre!!!)

Sleep resolution (going to bed before 12) is not going well. SIGH. Workload is insanely crazy, but the content is rather enjoyable. Who knew I would ever appreciate academic journals about corporate governance and business ethics?

Life changing

This semester I picked subjects I thought were more suited to my personality.

It's only week 3, but I feel like the way that I perceive things has changed.

I've even started to analyse my daily thoughts/situations with theories that I've read in academic papers.

This is what an education should feel like.

It's mind boggling to think that I'm only experiencing this in my last semester of uni...

Why didn't I take this path earlier? I should have listened to myself and followed my "dreams". Parents do want the best for you, but you should know yourself better than anyone else.

In saying this, I am still too scared to tell D that I've dropped a major in my final semester. Oh god. I'm already the disappointing child of the family -_-
