Reverting back to the old ways

This morning, I had cheese, ham and bread for breakfast. This is largely due to the fact that I am just back from Amsterdam and Paris, where I enjoyed eating breakfast like that.

This way of eating is not new to me. I used to do it once in a while to remind myself of the lifestyle I led in Suisse and in Oz. I did tell Spacecake and OLKgal that I do not mind eating bread everyday. I really don't, but coming back home also made me realise that having other choices is good too. That's only because we have been exposed to different types of food.

The fact that the types of Asian food being so reasonably priced made me appreciate it even more. I peered into one "Malaysia Restaurant" in Amsterdam and a dish of Nasi Lemak cost 17.50 Euros!!! Laksa was also around that price. No doubt, one would be served and be sitting in a suitably climatised room (either air-con or heater, depending on season) but the fact that I could eat Nasi Lemak at 10 times cheaper just made me...more humble when it came to eating here now.

The bready part of me though, laments at the lack of finding nice sandwich and salad type foods here, locally. I suppose I can only look to Subway and Delifrance for comfort and a quick fix then.

My preferred Asian style of breakfast will still be fried bee hoon and coffee with evaporated milk, but more often now, I will have more bread readily available at home .

Of all times!

Of all times, my USB port connecting my camera to the PC has malfunctioned. Of all times that I am so super enthusiastic about uploading my pics!

Well, I suppose I will just blog on first and bring the poor fella in for a check-up after my exams are over. My on-site visit is tomorrow and I am nervous like hell but I shall have the Lord by my side and I will conquer it all. Two years of studying and it is finally over. Yet, I am looking at taking up French again and perhaps, perhaps, even Dutch. Got to weigh out the opportunity costs though. Not sure whether I want to learn Dutch due to the fact that I have been there and that my friend is there (i.e. vain lah) or do I really want to learn a new language?

See? That's me. Very...undecided :P

Back!

I'm back from the Netherlands and Paris!!!! I feel so refreshed and inspired to do lots of things. Although I do not know how long my inspirations will last.

There are lots to share and many pictures to upload. As usual, you would have to wait awhile. Got to sort out my exams first (which is on next Monday). Will try to share as quickly as I can though and may even consider opening a flicker or picasa account. Hahaha...I know, I know. Should have done that yonks ago! Better late than never, I say!

Tot ziens!
