Going to uni made me feel better

Yesterday I done nothing. Absolutely NOTHING! Yesterday I was still moping about placement.

 

Today at 7:10am I forced myself out of bed. But did tasks slowly. Ended up being JUST in time for a lecture.. which I forgot was just watching a movie lol! Ehh.. the movie was interesting.

 

Saw a friend who I used to work with last semester and we talked about placement. Didn't really tell him what I did hehe. I was more interested in hearing his story of his placement. Omg love how he tells his stories. Cos e turns something freaky into something funny!! XD lol I felt better cos his case was 100 times worse than mine!!

 

Today was one of those annoying days where we get 1 hour break, then lecture, then one hour break again =.=

 

The second one hour break, I didn't want to buy lunch at the café cos the prices went up!! I normally buy lasagna and the price is up by almost a dollar!! My $8 pho meal is cheaper than 1lasagna and a small soup at the café… so I decided to go out to the shops to buy some seaweed cos my nephew wanted more. There was a new thai/jap shop that opened. My main intention was to see if they sell soba.. but a majority of the small shop was thai but oh well.. it's the only shop that sells pocky!

 

So I bought my seaweed, happy that I bought snacks for my next 10 min break between lectures. A tad disappointed that the bakery didn't have the bread I wanted for lunch. My fav pho restaurant is closed for renovation. And a table with several pieces of paper stuck on the edge mentioning churros.

 

Churros??? There's churros in St Albans??????

 

And I looked at the shop and it was a vegetarian viet restaurant.

 

….this is new… I never seen this @.@ but the location of that restaurant means I never see it anyway lol! Hmm.. *see the guy on the other side of the window putting icing sugar on the thin doughsticks* I'll try those churros for lunch!!

 

So I walked in, stuck my head through the door as the previous customers walked out and the guy saw me and cheerfully said "you want some churros!!!????" and he immediately snip a sample off a stick and offers it to me before I could say anything!!

 

I quite liked it, so I asked for more churros ^^. And they were made fresh in front of me. and while he was cooking, he strike up a convo saying that this is a vegetarian restaurant. I observed the room and I noticed a few baskets of flowers and red ribbon, meaning that this place is new.

 

Hmm.. since my fav place is closed and won't open for a while, it won't hurt to try here. Now…. Where is the menu… *looks around more*

 

Dammit that guy cooking my churros must have been a mindreader cos while he was multitasking helping other customers, he pulled out a menu and a business card!

 

Guy: have you had churros before??

Me: yeah, but I don't usually eat them often…

Guy: where do you get your churros?

Me: the closest one I know is on the one in Glen Waverley which is.. *waves her arm away*

Guy: ahh… you from the other side of town?

Me: yes…I'm wanted to buy your churros so I realise I don't have lunch today

Guy: ahhh ok!

Me: um.. is this place new?

Guy: yeah, we opened.. the Saturday before.. Saturday! *puts icing suger on my churros* oh and here is a menu. I haven't put them up on the menu cos I don't have enough copies, but do let your friends know about this place! And here is out business card.

Me: SURE!! I'll come here one day and try the food out~ *even tho its 50 cents more, wouldn't mind vegetarian food*

 

I was in a relatively good mood compared to the past 2 days. Had another 20 mins until the next lecture. So I just sat there and slowly ate my churros. But then I was kinda full cos I ate other food already x.x and I saw another friend and we talked about placement. The word "placement" was a pretty popular gossip today. And she asked what cases I had. Even though Sunday was really quiet that I sat at the branch and did nothing for 2 hours…I told her my cases in detail. But not too much detail that it breaches the guidelines. And she could tell what I was concerned about yesterday. But I didn't had time to tell her another factor of this case.. if I did she'll prob slap me and tell me to stop whining. But I'm kinda glad I get to talk about placement within uni. And in our clinical lecture where we get to hear more placement stories, it was good that someone got something a bit more interesting.
