Listening to : Benny Benassi - I Love My Sex
Feelin : insomniac
Tossin' & Turnin'
So much for returning to my sleep cycles - i even hit the sack early tonight ( hey 12.30's friggin early) only to wake up completely sleepless - but not all that refreshed - at 3.30 in the morning. Thats it - no more naps and breaks until midnight tonight. The most irritating thing was that its like....its not like i'm obsessively worried about anything ( at least thats what im tellin myself) or under THAT much stress......just goddamned broken goddamned sleep cycles.rrRRghhh!!
En Garde! **slip/thud**
First fencing session today since the end of last term - now its all the way on the main campus cos Westwood sports' hall is being used for some of the early exams. Well at least its a nice warm up jog. Man everyone was soo out of form - but i think i kinda topped out the list of weird moves when i slipped on my heels during a balestra and i fell, simultanously badly twisting it and banging my other knee hard on the floor as well...the ankle stung like hell, but had to cover that for the rest of the session. Kontrol!!
Thoughts on the 'mill
Been doing a helluva lot more cardio recently at the gym - stickin to a 20 min run, 20 min row followed by a 20 min crosstrainer or cycling. Yup thats a lot of time to listen to music, or just let your mind wander .... about...well macam macam la....like the fact that some things i definitely like to do alone and alone only , like gymming ( no one can motivate me better than myself) and shopping ( i like my time to choose - fussy fussy fussy). The other thoughts? Tak yah tau la...
Oral/Aural delights
Okay that was a cheap shot. Anyhoo, anyone up to eat at Ell Bulli ( Barcelona, Spain) in, say...2010? 2011? It's supposedly THE best culinary experience on earth ( a steal at about 155 euros a head as compared to some places in London and even back home) - It's only open for 6 months during the 'summer season' , and closed for the remaining 6 while the head chef ( 3 starred Adrian Ferra) experiments and creates a brand new 27 course ( tiny, tiny courses) menu that covers all interactions of texture and flavour. With gems like Strawberry sorbet stuffed with queso fresco with campari and orange confit, jellified melon and passion fruit caviar pips , orange and mandarin foam on olive jelly.....**amar loses focus and starts drooling**. But yeah you gotta book years ( 5 is good) in advance, and the odds of getting any seat on any given day it 200 to 1( probably higher now - they had a piece on it in the Times today - but dah lama dah i tau tempat ni....), but it is like a pilgrimage for foodies. Must go. If i don't i'll probably eventually kill myself trying out his nitrious oxide 'flavour foam' method.
Also, my Shure in-ear headphones came in today - got a good deal on 'em on eBay. Excellent replacement for my sadly deceased Sony in-ears. Dunno what all the kefuffle online was about when it came to it being really hard to get a good fit on them. They weren't kidding about the headphones revealing details. On "Sephia" you can actually hear the backup singers whispering over the first few verses.
Well i might as well get some work done while i'm waiting for sleepiness to sink back in.
