Been a long week

elusivekHonestly, i kept thinking a day ahead. I didn't have a day off, I didn't have a particularly busy day, but kept thinking it was the day after. So yesterday (Wednesday) I kept thinking it was Thursday, despite knowing for a fact that Wednesday was class day and I had class that day. And today I kept thinking today is Friday, when in fact it is Thursday.
Maybe it's this cough that I tried to subdue late last week, but even with medicine, biology has won, and it's now developed into a full proper cough. I've given up on western medicine and been to a Chinese medicine doctor. I was expecting a terribly bitter tea but honestly, this concoction wasn't really that bad.
My habit for lunch nowadays is to go down to the staff canteen for lunch - grab some salad, grab an apple, and a bit of protein dish (be it beef/pork/chicken) of the day and that's a lunch. But. Chinese doctor says "no cold things" so salad and god forbid, fruits, not allowed. So I'm finally going to the actual restaurants for my privilege lunch. This is the ceiling of one such restaurant. Totally instagrammable. But honestly, way too pink LOL.
It would seem the people at HP either have an incredible sense of humor or a limited knowledge of English slang. It's a printing technology. Why? Why PaperCut? And I know you want to say MultiFunction, but I'm sorry, this PaperCut MF sh*t will just be PaperCut MotherF*cker for me.
Colleague-friend is too kind to bring a souvenir gift from her vacation.
So before my cough, I managed to go on a run on a nice sunset day. My car goes over this bridge every day going home from work.
I'm going to revisit the doctor tomorrow for more yucky tea and then mad dash to China for a long-needed manicure. My nails are too long for my pottery stuff. I plan to do something different this week too! Fingers-crossed I manage to make something useful!
