It's been a while since I last blogged. I actually just didn't feel good enough to blog these last few days, and I really needed my sleep. I'm feeling MUCH better now than I was before, so I'm taking this opportunity to blog again :)
I did go out to the pub with our friends and it was really nice seeing our friends who we haven't seen since they left for Japan. One of them is an actual resident, and the other is a teacher, teaching English. I still wasn't feeling well that day so I ended up just sharing a buffalo chicken wrap and fries with my boyfriend, and I also had some cranberry juice in hopes that it would calm my stomach. It definitely didn't upset it, and the meal was really good! I was surprised how I was able to have an appetite for it, let alone actually finish some of it. XD I felt a bit icky afterwards, but it was good to spend time with our friends. We ended up leaving after 10 I think, and headed home where I spent more time sleeping.
On New Years Eve, I went shopping and finally had the stomach to go out and get some BOGO at Starbucks for their holiday drinks. :) I got to use my card, and I'm happy to say that I am just five stars away from the gold card... I'm not sure why getting the gold card is such a big deal to me, perhaps it's because I get a shiny new gold card with my name on it that appeals to me... After Starbucks, I headed home and played with my new laptop. It uses Windows 8, which I find is hard to get used to... it's like having half a tablet and half a computer in one... if I had a touchscreen that would probably make it more useful to me. For now, it's not so bad. I can run things in the background in the "Start" part of Windows 8, and not have to worry about bringing things down when I'm working on my "Desktop" which is the actual computer portion... o_o Afer that, my boyfriend and I decided to attend the annual New Years Eve Bash downtown. We got there after 11pm, since we didn't want to stand outside for three hours to wait for the countdown. By the time we got there, we had to find parking about 20 minutes walking distance from the event. It was cold that night but we had a good workout walking the distance! There were lots of people there, music, and then two fireworks... literally, to ring in the new year. Ah, it was interesting.
Yesterday I just played some LoL and then attempted to use Cinema4D... it's harder than it seems. 3D modelling is something I definitely want to learn, but I need to start with some beginner tutorials/exercises. o_o
Today we went to Earl's for a super late lunch/early dinner. XD We wanted to use a groupon for The Auburn Lounge, but we kept walking around and really couldn't find the location... gave up, and just ended up going to Earl's. I got a Grilled Chicken and Baked Brie sandwich (my favourite!) and my boyfriend got the Buttermilk Fried Chicken burger, which was also really good. We ended up getting fries for sides, and also got a gingerbread cake with icecream and caramel apples for dessert. We were pretty full after, and then did a bit of groccery shopping. Played some Miracle Mask, and watched a bit of the first episode in season 2 of The Walking Dead. I also worked on my cover letter for a job I'm applying for, and drank some green tea. :)
Tomorrow I am back to work, so I need to sleep soon. It's 2AM O_o.
