So I’ve been traveling a bit and now I’m in Utica, NY!!!
So I’ve been craving pancakes…yeah I have cravings too. LOL
PANCAKESSSS!!! But yeah I got a normal meal, so pancakes, hash browns, eggs and sausages!
Not much of a post but I still love pancakes, so that’s still a thing. 🙂
Hopefully I’ll have more fun posts now that I’m visiting my friends!!!
P.S sorry for the ugly picture of me, I was tired and excited for food!!
So today was a foodilicious day, and by that I mean I ate out a lot and had a bunch of noms!
It was kind of weird since I started out the morning with dimsum, but I mean hey it’s Sunday, so brunch right???
I went to Dragon city dimsum! Which is the top floor of Dragon city centre!
Dimsum is a type of meal that consists of a bunch of mini dishes, sort of like appetizers as a meal! But I didn’t eat much since I’m not a heavy water in the morning LOL
I had congee and chicken feet. I LOVE THE CHICKEN FEET JUDGE ME!!!! <;3 Yeah as I was saying it's not for everyone by I love it regardless!
Congee is basically boiled rice with water till its turned into a gruel, delicious! Well it is…if you have added condiments to it! I had mine with duck egg and green onions…nom nom nom!
For dessert I had a nice soft tofu thing, yeah it's dessert because ITS SWEETENED OH NOM NOMS!!!
But wait there’s more!
I also went to a pastry shop for lunch! LOL really not much to say besides describing the pastries! ALSO I GOT FREE GREEN TEA WALKING THERE HUZZAH CITY LIFE! Also the pastry shop is called ‘Furama’! 🙂
Top left, an apple raisin pastry!
Top right (kinda) a red bean pastry!
Bottom, a sponge cake!
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST MY FAVORITE!
FRUIT TARTTTTT!
Oh yeah my free green tea drink! 🙂
So this will be another quicky post, so far so good! Two posts in a day…huzzah! I guess!
Well I’m just going to show what an average dinner would look like if you order at a Chinese restaurant. Usually it consists of the soup of the day, then your meat and vegetables (you can order rice on the side, usually $1 per person) and a soup dessert!
But today I ordered a sort of combo, I wanted a quick and small dinner! So I went to ‘People’s Eatery’ and that’s the English name of the store, I’m pretty sure there’s a deeper Chinese name if I could read Chinese. XD
So I had a soup, which consisted of beef chunks, bitter melon (meh) and red bean!
Then I had a rice + beef + black bean sauce as a entre, nom nom nom ❤
Overall it was a decent meal, I mean what else would you expect after all it was only $4.95. 😛
Well while I’ve been in Toronto eating well I figured I would show you some of the noms I’ve happened by!
So maybe the food blog thing will fly since I’m in a city with plenty of food culture. 😀
First we have a normal beef bento box, from my favorite sushi joint ‘Sushi on Bloor’! The bento box also came with some cucumber and salmon maki rolls! And a ice cream at the end, I chose green tea but ate it before I could take a picture. I know I’m a fat ass LOL.
And featuring today’s lunch! Some delicious viet spring rolls!!!! 😀 from across the street LOL yeah this was really a quicky because I had to dash back and plus I didn’t want to eat alone LOL
Dedicated to Neil my first teaser of the blog yet to come 😉
Well this year marks a brand new year for EVERYONE, hopefully no ones dies near december on a certain date. 😉
All jokes aside, I’m frankly impressed there are still readers to my blog! Thank you all for reading, your comments really support me! So I decided to make a decent post. I know I’m lacking as a blogger but hopefully my post will become more frequent, but I highly doubt they will be, but if anything they’ll definitely will be more interesting at least. I plan to hopefully have a very ACTIVE and FUN year but at the same time extremely stressful.
So all those reading my blog for the first time, here’s some information about me, I’m a student at the college of engineering at Boston University, major : Biomedical Engineering. AKA THE HARD LIFE.
But I truly enjoy it, not that I’m a sadistic person by any means, but I enjoy learning, anything new is interesting to me!
Although my first semester wasn’t as great as I’d expect it to be (gpa wise) I know I can do better this semester…in harder classes. LOL
But enough about that, those reading my blog are either interested in; me, boston, boston university, or student life. So I want to grant a quick update to all those above.
Okay first things first, I discovered college water; red bull. LOL
Alright next, Boston University’s daunting ultimate challenge was of course FINALS WEEK DUN DUN DUN, I can seriously hear the cries from hell after going through that week!
Okay, maybe not the cries from hell but it was still extremely stressful especially the 24 hours before an exam I wanted to just throw myself off the Prudential Building and be satisfied with life like that. I especially wanted to throw myself off the very same building after my calc exam, and I all have to say, kiddos even if you talk AP calc (like I did) DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT SKIP 8 weeks of calc lectures XD bad foresight on my part but I passed! It wasn’t an A though, so going to those lectures would’ve helped greatly I assumed. Also unlike most students I am a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE studier, so what I’ve learnt is
THREE IS THE MAGIC NUMBER
With studying at least, if you want to study efficiently study with two others than yourself, no more no less. Here’s the logic here with two people you’ll distract each other, with the third, hopefully someone more serious you’ll be able to study as well. With more than 3 people you get what I got; a party. Instead of potentially studying like good college freshmen we played tetris for HOURS and went out to a sushi buffet (which I will talk more in debt about later, was delicious). It just became a room of fun, although that’s not bad for planned nonstudying fun times, it was really inefficient in studying, aka no studying .
Okay next topic of course would be the opposite of studying, partying!
I’m a bad student. I’ve gotten this thrill from partying, although I by no means endorse drinking in anyway or form, I just want to d-d-danceeeeeee (as said by David Guetta ft. Rihanna – Who’s that Chick)!
Going out on a friday night (and only on friday night’s when I’m not downed by homework) is a excellent way to destress the stress I’ve accumulated over the week, it’s the only time I can be free in a sense, or have crazy fun with friends!
I like the phrase, study hard but party harder, if only for one night at least. I don’t understand those who waste every night going to parties, it’s insane, but trying to find the right balance between fun and studying can be hard too. So as a gift to myself I’ve given friday nights, or early saturday mornings, my fun night. It’s not like I don’t have fun on other days, I frequently go to FREE EARLY PREMIERES OF MOVIES (EKK and YAY!!)
Okay enough of me justifying my partying!
Partying, I’ve now been to two BU frat parties, first the asian frat earlier in the year which I said earlier, sucked. BUT I’ve heard good things about it recently but I’m not willing to check and see for myself since it was such a bad experience in general. The newest experience I’ve had was a friend brought me to a multicultural frat, but really it was an indian frat party. Which kind of shocked me, as my previous indian friends in high school were so innocent in comparison. BUT it was a very good party, I had fun but I had to leave at about 1am because I had sleepover at my friend’s dorm due to some turtles.
But just some good words of advice to those who try to sleepover at a friend’s dorm (if they’re another student in the same college) to avoid embarrassment of having a friend check me in, you just have to go in before 2am and you’ll be in the system but the security don’t really care, unless you come in stumbling drunk like a idiot (you’ll be ambulance right away) or have the misfortune of living in a freshmen dorm (warren towers). But just to avoid some awkward stares, I just make sure I’m able to get in before 2am! Also, ask beforehand to make sure they’re okay with it!
Next up, if you want to exchange christmas gifts before you and your friends all leave for christmas, I suggest secret santa (you can use elfster). Now that you’re a presumably poor college student you can save some money but make each person happy with a secret santa gift!
Some quick New years resolutions are:
Sorry for badgering you all with such a long post, but I hope you find the information useful! I’ll add a food post soon and also a post about a day trips to NYC, and how to plan for such!
Till next time.
Okay here are just some photo upload of food!!! NOM NOM NOM!
Bento boxes are from Fin’s Sushi and the Fried rice is from Kaguya!
Yup, I’m actually updating!
However briefly I believe I should do this before I literally die, from exhaustion and effing chemistry, we’re in a love/hate relationship, she gives me sleepless nights and in the morning even after she abuses me I still think of her. And when I finally understand her I smile, she’s my personal mystery. Pft.
But seriously I’m getting raped by chemistry, it’s mind fuckery. But I think it’s mostly me just being a retard and falling asleep.
But onwards with the blog post, like I promised last time I’m uploading photos on my room! Just a hint my side of the room is where the blue sheets are! Duh, my favorite color is blue! But it’s beautiful!
So that’s my room!
And I’ve been having a week of meeting of famous people,
The director of Harold and Kumar 3:
New heights!
Clara C!
AND FINALLY FALLLLLL ARRIVED IN BOSTON!
Alright, first off this blog might be a tad longer than usual for a few reason;
To list a few:
1. I’m at work and bored
2. I haven’t updated in a while
3. quite insulted ^
Let’s continue the life of a freshmen female in BME living in Danielsen Hall, and going to Boston University.
Beginning with classes of course.
Chem101, I’m being raped in, I gotta study more enough said.
MA123 surprisingly I don’t have a A, have to actually study related rates.
WR100 with Professor Campbell is still awesome!
EK132 is MUCH better, taking wireless networking with linux! (excited nerd!)
and EK100 groups is just me talking to Jasmine and that’s that.
Next up, Work:
Work as an Ingalls monitor is mostly awesome, as you can tell right now, I have free time. A lot of free time apparently, enough to write a blog in fact!
I usually just do homework but today I feel a tad lazy and my hair looks good thus, I blog it on!
Alright so as a ingalls monitor, I clean, monitor, and surf the web, and sometimes camho.
For example:
Next would be Dorm life!
Danielsen Hall as some have come to truly believe is Narnia however like Narnia, after a lot of walking it’s a beautiful dorm after all, I’ll upload a full room picture later when I clean, but here are a few pictures, including the marvelous windows!
Third we have party life:
1. MIT frats are still fun, unless you’re literally the only sober person in the room. And remember to bring friends you’ll have fun with! They’ll make the night much better, and safety in numbers, also if you’re in a large female group they’ll let you in, remember the female to male ratio!
2. Dont’ binge drink.
3. Don’t lose your iphone (I did).
4. Have fun and be safe!
Next would be….FOOD FOOD FOOD FOOD FOOD!
Okay so this blog was meant to be a food blog anyways, so let us begin!!! FOOD!
LOBSTER NIGHT ON MY BDAY! FREE ISH LOBSTER ( I mean I paid for the meal plan anyways…)
Okay these next few photos weren’t taken in boston HOWEVER they were in NYC…so like 4 hours away dude….!
Delicious!
Next would be the rest of the boston food ISH I’ve eaten since I’ve gotten here! 😀
Okay so the last two pictures were from Rockbottom, which is like right next to Tufts which is right next to Chinatown!
Picture with me and the menu!
And This concludes my long ass Blog. I’m going to just post like every saturday instead? ❤
I’m a bad blogger, in fact I didn’t keep my promise of uploading daily, instead let’s do maybe biweekly?
But I’m uploading a new blog post later today!!!
