Day 3: Steak Night!
I betcha when you saw that title you thought I went off being vegetarian now, didn’t you? Sorry to disappoint you, but I’m still a vegetarian on day 3 of the ’sympathy diet’.
Woke up at 4am today, ate a can of baked beans and a bowl of cereal at 5ish am, went back to sleep at 6am, woke up again at 8am, went to uni and did the oral exam, did the group meetings and did the presentations back to back. All this while eating an apple for breakfast at 8am and not eating again till after everything was done, which was around about 4ish pm. I’m proud of myself I must say. I just had a very small portion of cauliflower, potato and cheese bake for dinner and resisted eating the steak.
Strangely enough, being vegetarian isn’t so bad after all. It feels good not to be stuffed full after a meal and I must say the loss of appetite is can most likely be attributed to stress from everything.
So it is a relief to finish everything for the semester, just have the exams to go. Tonight’s rest from studying is well earned I must say. I’m going to shower, remove my contacts and go curl up in my bed and read a book after this.
Oh, great news! Our applied research presentation got a good mark for the effort we put in and my splint critique went better than I thought. So all in all, a good end to the day
Just yesterday on the bus home, I felt so overwhelmed with everything until I saw a bunch of dolphins playing in the river while the bus was on Mounts Bay Road. It felt so good to see these docile creatures play so near civilization. Anyway, the load is off my shoulders now and I can breathe a little better after everything.
Just a random thought: I should have become a statistician. For the biostats assessment 2, I got much higher than expected so maybe interpreting data isn’t so bad after all. On the plus side, I can have a fling with my calculator ![]()
