Then O msged me to ask how I am..and then we kinda chatted where we are with our theses. Apparently he had sent the 1st 3 chapters to our dissertation supervisor (we have the same sup) but has not heard from her. Then I realised maybe I should too. I had been contemplating if to send cos I'll be gg away for hols and don't want to be disturbed during that or rather can't reply fast. Then I thought maybe ok la..since the sup will take time to read and reply. Kinda asked O for help with identifying study design also cos I've asked El and PF of their opinion. All cos authors of the studies didn't state clearly what their study design is! Now continuing to pick out impt info from all studies I've read to put into point form so it will be easier when I do up my discussion part. I am still a bit blur about the results bit..haha! Anyway realised O will be back in Brum when I'm away..so prob won't get to meet the clique till July.
So I have to get something for breakfast for the next few days. Went out to buy some stuff then passed by the fruit and vege stall in Harborne. They were selling avocadoes 6 for 60p!!! I was sooo tempted to get but not sure if will ripen in time before I go. Didn't get in the end. Went to Home Bargains cos wanna see if have the poppadums but they didn't have..so might buy from Tesco on our trip since it's on offer till mid June. Went to Bearwood in the end. The Tesco express there didn't have the Scottish oats so went to Aldi to get. I was thinking I can't get muesli or granola cos then I'll have to open milk and I won't be able to finish by Tue. So oats is a better choice! I cooked it with water and is also quite thick. Hope this Aldi one is ok too!
Bought chicken leg quarters. Plan to bake them since I have sweet potatoes and the medium-sized pot is not cleared of oil yet so can't use. Bought a bag of frozen broccoli, cauliflower and carrot mix so that will be my vege for tonight. Went to Heron Foods and saw Haagen Dazs..they have new flavour now! Marc de Champagne truffle!!! Sounds sooo good! Was contemplating if to buy first n keep when parents are here but thot if put in freezer then dun offer like not nice (though I've already shifted my stuff to the bottom shelf to differentiate!). In the end decided that I shall get it when my parents are here. If no more then then too bad la..hahaha...
Came home and marinated the chicken leg quarters. Bought 2 packs..now they sell in 2s. They used to sell in 4s. Anyway marinated 2 with the usual "mummy's recipe" and another 2 with mustard, curry powder and paprika. Probably will bake all and freeze 2 up. Remaining 2, eat one today and another one tomorrow. Quite looking forward to it! Checked weather for the road trip and Europe. Realised that Europe will be warmer than here generally! Then saw that temp in Bham will be 23-24°C on the week of 7-13th June! Time to wear my sun dress when we are back here..hahahaha! Anyway roughly got an idea what to pack for Europe. Bringing 2 thin long sleeved tops and will pack other short sleeves that my parents will be bringing over. First few days will be about 17-19°C and rainy..then when we get back to London is above 20°C.
Oh ya, found out that one of my colleagues (currently taking over my ATL role) may be gg to Brunel (London) to study this Sept. So quiet and even when I asked in whatsapp group also no reply till PF told me. But this colleague also all along quite confident so didn't ask PF and I abt the interview or stuff. She only asked PF abt application process for her uni..that's how PF knew. Anyway it was cos they were planning for working Sats roster. So was asking among the TL/ATLs how it should be planned given manpower changes for Sept/Oct. So for sure I'll be back in my team..and may be still given the ATL role =X
*Added: here's my dinner..and for days I don't feel like cooking!
