Roast Pork Belly

Videocalled with my niece for almost 2 hours today cos my parents babysit while my bro n sis-in-law went to visit my cousin in hosp. So nice to see my parents and niece enjoying one another's company..really is grandparents' bonding moment lor! She was in a good mood today but didn't call me when I appeared. Cheeky girl!

Anyway this am my boss whatsapp to prompt me to send passport page to HR..she prob told me cos saw her email to me...so I replied after I switched on my laptop. So it should be confirmed that she'll get it for me. Quite a relief la! Then heard that another colleague in my team will be going to London (Uxbridge)..same as PF on 30 Aug! That's sooo soon! Anyway it was cos she wanted to handover a team she has been heading to me (as suggested by my 2nd boss). This is the team that I was not part of and suddenly ask me to take over...and I agreed to help while this colleague is away for studies...so intending to return the role to her after she's back! Shall see how! And then also got email telling counter and outpt to open my outpatient work rehab slots on 2 half days from Oct!! Scary lah!! Means I've to plan my leave well in advance cos now is 2 half days instead of previous 1 half day.

Didn't do much today..had wanted to bake brownies but realised I didn't have enough eggs and besides I was quite lazy. This morning also chatted with my aunt over whatsapp..will hv to "scold" my ah ma when I call her soon..hahaha! Oh, I probably didn't mention..I "overslept" today..only woke up at 9+am..L also woke up ard that time cos she usually works late on Thurs. It was also pouring outside..then sunshine..then hailed then poured and now sunny. S and I decided to meet for fish and chips next week instead cos weather really unpredictable..will just rain suddenly.

Marinated my pork belly in the afternoon and then realised that my bottle of olive oil is no longer in the pull-out rack of seasonings. I put it there last time (common area) cos the bottle was too tall for my shelf and I dare not put it lying down. So maybe later if I see L at night I'll ask her. Last night she only came back close to 12mn..but heng she was quite quiet when she came back.

This morning asked L about the potential tenant..then she didn't sound v keen to have her too..but I just told her that my tentative date is 7 Sept..then she told me don't feel rushed. I mentioned cos she said the girl who came to see the room yday said she has to move out of her current temp accommodation by 1 Sept. But anyway, seems that the girl asked her where's the desk in my room..then asked again when she can talk to her..like interact...quite funny la..the girl claims that she hopes to stay with a host family to improve her English..so v keen to interact. Then L was saying the girl didn't seem to understand English well though she can speak. And L said she looks like 15yo..hahaa! But she told me over hp that day that she's 22 or 24..

Tmr gg to Coventry till late afternoon with S. Weather should be good in the morning then light rain shower expected in the afternoon.

At Episode 17 of Angel Eyes. 20 episodes in total. Getting exciting..

*Added: My roast pork didn't turn out as crackling as I thought it will be! But still edible..think cos I didn't dry the skin before I roasted and also I think it's too lean..oops!! Anyway it shrank quite a lot after it cooked! Ate half of it and kept other half in freezer cos not sure when will be the next time I cook dinner. After cooking I wiped the kitchen floor also..cos when I wore slippers, it kept making the sound like the floor is sticky or oily..



**Added again: I hear a man's voice and his footsteps...don't tell me he's back?!?!?!?!?!? OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
