Jalan-Jalan Cari Makan

Oh yes. Since I've moved to a private house, I've to cook for myself. No more catered food like last year, which I'd complained so much about. The catered halls have the most stupid dinner time ever. EVER. Dinner starts at 5 and ends at 6.30. WTF? When it is around 10pm you will start hearing grumbling and then its time for you to make decision. What kind of decision?

1) To spend more money on some unhealthy Pakistani-made 2 for 5pounds 10 inch pizza or,
2) Save your money and die.

Hard time.

Lunch is much flexible. I was given a meal card and everyday it is uploaded with 6.48 pounds. Yeah i know the amount is random. Nobody know why is it like that. With that 6.48 pounds you can go to any cafeteria or takeaway outlet in the university and choose whatever you want. Normally I'll just get a sandwich, which costs 2pounds=RM12 and the rest I'll just spend on snacks like crisps(potato chips in UK, confusing yeh?) and maybe some chocolate bars so that I can refill my tummy whenever i'm hibernating in my room at night. I hate sunday lunch. If you miss it, that means you are gonna starve til dinner. I woke up late once and realise that after 2 every cafeteria is closed and you wont get any sort of nutrition unless u take a 1.50pound bus to the city to get FOOD. =.=

Dinner in halls is like Rhuban. When it is good, it is acceptable. When it comes bad, it really sucks to the max. But all the time, it sucks. And black. (LOL SRY RUBY! CANT THINK OF BETTER ANALOGY) They boil everything. Veg, potato, rice. Boil rice man. Sometimes i just felt like walking into the kitchen and give the chef a big tight slap for humiliating our main source of CHO. Normally dinner is like this. You get to choose a main course which is either a meat dish or veg. then u get to have side dishes like potatoes, potatoes and potatoes. All sort of diff potatoes. Mash, boil with skin, boil without skin, fried, thick chips, medium chips, slim sexy chips. and a dessert. most of the time the dessert sucks.

Anyway i need to explain my title. I have to walk to get my food. 20 minutes one way everytime. That is the nearest gorcery store (Sainsbury's) that i can find unless i spend 1.50pound =RM9 on single way bus again. Anyway so far my cooking is edible hehehe. I just spent 26quid today. Bought a sea bream and cooked it right away when i reach home. FRESH MEAT TASTES SOOO GOOOD! Then some pointed cabbage, TERUNG/EGGPLANT/AUBERGINE/WHATEVER YOU CALL IT AND IT IS STILL MY FAV FOOD, potatoes, chilli, minced pork, chicken, and some canned stuff.

OH I WANTED TO TELL U ALL THIS. I bought 2 500ml tub of HAAGEN DAAZ icecream!! they got promotion and each costs 2.50pound ONLY!!! OMG OMG i m gonna finish them now and buy them again tmr.

Oh yeah tmr its Nottingham Malaysian Games. Think i've mentioned it in my earlier post. Malaysians frm all over UK will come over to compete in sports. One of the biggest Malaysian student organised event in UK apparently. Time to check out some chicks. Pessimistically, most of the chiques who will be coming are to support their boyfriend playing in the games anyway zzzzzzzzzzzz.

To look at the bright side, this will be an event which u can get to see your friends who studies in some other places in UK! Stupid Joel FFK me say wanna come but now busy having secks...
