Day 40...another normal day. It was St. Patrick's Day and i was supposed to go with some of the others to Sherlock's (a local pub) but decided to FFK at the last minute. Decided not to go as i didn't seem to be in the mood for it, not to mention that i was feeling a little tired. So, i just went back to the apartment and to my suprise, actually sat down for about an hour and a half doing my CBT (revision using a company program). Crawled into bed just a little before 11pm and slept quite soundly until the next morning.
Today, we continued our training on Geophysics Fundamentals. The next few weeks will also be focused on the data processing. And it looks like we'll be having a little test by Friday. Seems to be quite a few things to balance, between doing the CBT, trying to figure out what to do for the next presentation and trying to revise for the test.
We're finally on our own for lunch starting from this week. We didn't had to worry about lunch the previous weeks as it was provided. As i wasn't really prepared for this transition (due to my empty fridge), i only had 3 bananas, a pear and a cup of hot chocolate for lunch today. Everybody else packed theirs or brought instant noodles. I had already eaten that as part of my dinner yesterday so i didn't want to repeat that. Later after class, we stopped at WalMart for supplies and i got rice, some vege and other stuff needed to cook. It's been 3 years since i last cooked anything apart from instant noodles, the last was during my nearshore job in Ca Mau, Vietnam (where the other guys made me cook since they said i was so free). In any case, i managed to whip up a very, very simple meal for dinner. Never mind that the rice was just a teeny bit wetter than i would have liked it, or the egg was slightly overcooked, it was a good meal...to me at least. Now, i kinda look forward to cooking a bit more in the coming weeks, ha ha.
Simple indeed, but it feels a bit like a milestone of sorts :p
