baguette goodness

Woke up at 8am today but still felt tired! Anyway went downstairs for bfast and saw the 2 luggages they used for their trip by the door. My initial thought was "is he gg?" then thought no signs..probably bringing back to his storage space. But I don't know. He rented car recently. Yday I commented to L that I thought a new neighbour moved in when I saw the car then realised is C's rented car. Then she also didn't say anything so I also didn't ask why he rented car. Oh well, the luggages are still there and it's the evening now. Yday found my door open after I went up after dinner..L must have gone to do some packing in the toilet cos my bottles of new shower gel and the empty bottle I left to dry were put on the sink area. Then this morning again went to my rm while I was having bfast to take some men's business shirts out. Usually she will ask before going into my room. She said sorry when after she came down from the toilet, I was sitting on my bed. Anyway today tried the donuts L and they tasted like bread..ate half of the 2 whole pieces and threw. I know very cek ak..but not my money..hahaha!!

Went to ASDA today as planned cos I wanted to get pasta and spaghetti, yoghurt and ginger. End up getting frozen chicken, potatoes cos I plan to cook curry tomorrow (hopefully the pot will be cleared of oil by tmr) and cream cheese and half baguette. Was actually attracted by the olive ciabattas sold in 2s and they were selling for 3 for £1.50..but I will have to freeze them cos can't eat that fast. Then I saw half baguette so bought it..thought of having it with curry..but shall see cos it's also quite tempted to make kaya baguettes or bruschetta with it..haha

On my way back dropped by the fruit and veg stall along Harborne and bought a pack of nectarines. Came home and cut 2 slices of the baguette cos it smelled so good when I was bringing it home! Had it with the cream cheese I bought. It's really vv good!! Crusty and soft inside..wonder why I haven't eaten such nice texture back in SG!

Continued with my research and happen to discuss with El and Sil...then I felt quite discouraged cos it seems that I'm not v clear in my aims and try to achieve too many things..and focus wrongly on SG context when it's an additional discussion point. But I'm also not sure...cos my tutor had given positive feedback so far. Probably will have to discuss further with my tutor on my included studies and results. I'm still awaiting for her reply on what time to meet on Thu.

Weather was nice today..about 19°C and sunny..so was out in short sleeves and slippers. Warming up tomorrow till end of the week. Plan to go Botanic Garden on Wed since it's sunny intervals and 22°C. And most importantly, the flowers are blooming..the type of flowers blooming now is different from spring ones..now seems to have roses and fuschia and lavender..some ppl's gardens look v pretty! Probably can send pics realtime also since I'll still have data plan then. It ends on Thur. After Thu then see when I need then buy one last time before I leave but I probably won't get it for attachment on 9th July so I'll be uncontactable via wifi/mobile data apps.

Just when I was worrying that I'll have to walk to most places and limit my days out after my travelcard expires on 22 July, I went to find alternatives and was calculating if it's worth to get the 4 week adult travelcard or just pay as and when I use the bus. And then, I saw that there's this summer sale..8th July to 6th Sept for £69! I calculated..it will be worth if I go out more than twice a week on average cos I'll only be using it for 6 weeks...but still cheaper than the adult one. It goes on sale tmr..so shall think about it..most prob will get that so I don't have to worry about having enough coins or worry about travelling too often.
