i slept at 6am last night watching iron chef America and top chef on food network. the dishes they displayed were phenomenal. it's like who would have thought of burning/scalding the black bass skin with a Bunsen burner before it's being cooked so it'll get the crisp and risen look. now THAT was ultimate.

I'm not proud to be a nocturnal mammal but i can't deny that i am one. I've been up til 4 am for about two weeks now and waking up at noontime. i was roused by the alarm clock, yes, alarm, who sets an alarm during holidays? it was... for an errand to run. i had an appointment with the optometrist, they won't see you if you don't and they're not there all the time. opticians can't do eye exams for you, each eye exam costs $50. each pair of glasses costs $300 at a discounted price. so, tell me, isn't this MADNESS? ha ha, i got my prescription the other day, and the optometrist left out a PD box... for Pupil Distance. Because of that, I couldn't make my glasses, so i returned today with an appointment, but another eye doctor was there, he told me i have to return tomorrow with another appointment to see the SAME optometrist that rendered the prescription to measure my PD. this was of course, no surprise, since blunders as such often occurs in Canada. i just hope i don't have to pay another $50 just for my PD, which HE left out.

though sapped by the sun and frazzled by the limited rest, my bf and i headed off to this warehouse that sells all designer brands, so prices were cut from $249 to $117 and such. I am broke so I didn't get anything even though my fingers were hurting from the restraint. we lumbered our way to Canadian tire where i bought an snug laundry bag and two gigantic storage containers. We bypassed Tristan & America where i tried on some outfits; the sale was bizarre -- from $75 to $10. accessories at $2 and belts at $5. it turned out i didn't buy anything because i didn't like the fit and am not an "accessories" fan. our final stop was Dollarama, yeah, where all the worthy stuff lies, sold way below it's value. a well spent $27 indeed, i got everything i wanted.

came home to check my email and my marks for inorganic chem were finally out. it was an impressive mark i would say. Praise God! i wouldn't have traded it for any lower, duh. i am very satisfied with it. Praise God again!

now, some rest would do me good...
