PAiN in tHe A**...

on wednesday, it was a rather routine day for me... doing my research stuff at home and then ard 5pm, got a call from michelle and prisy asking if i want to join them for dinner and movie... i was like hesitant cos it was getting late and the movie was like at 9pm... but somehow, i got persuaded to go anyway... we drove to the city and had dinner at this rather posh place called Alio... where apparently, they have hand-made pasta... and in the car, michelle was like telling us how nice and yummy the food there was... at the place, i had a look at the menu and could not understand what it was talking about... anyway, the food were all given some very fancy names... so prisy recommended that i order the gnocchi... which is like some potato thing stuffed with cheese, i think... i did not really like it in the end, cos there was a strange taste which michelle said was the cheese... anyway, i was so full after cos i had a late lunch that day...

after dinner, went to watch iron man at the ritz... which is like this olden days movie theatre, where we went to watch beowulf that time... but the theatre that we went to was really nice... felt like i was going to watch a concert rather than a movie... and the movie was nice than i thought... really cool technology... and it was funny as well... i would give it 8/10...

anyway, break time over... back to boring stuff again... i was browsing through this article talking about doing research and something said in the article really had a deep impression on me... it went something like doing research can be hard work at times, even though you are doing something not related to your research or trying to relax... you always have the research at the back of your head... no matter what you do, it is like a cloud hanging over, so you can't truly relax and not think abt it...
which i thought is so true of what is going on for me now... even though say i am watching tv or doing something else, there is always the thought of the research at the back of my head... and it's already may, and i still have not started data collection... how...
