I’ve been taking things a little slower these couple of days. Just watched the first episode of BBC’s Planet Earth documentary. At first I was quite skeptical, thinking what’s so great about a documentary – aren’t they more or less the same? After watching it, I know what’s the hype over it – it’s really a very good production. Seemed that no expense was spared to produce this, and the filming and music was excellent.

There’s not much of a Chinese New Year atmosphere here on campus, despite there being plenty of Chinese people. The most obvious hint of the festival was that a significant number of students didn’t turn up for wine class today.

Dinner for today was baked chicken, potato wedges and boiled broccoli. I can’t seem to get enough of those potatoes… I’ve been eating them almost daily this week. Yummy.

I went to McDonald’s late at night to have supper with a couple of friends. I had an apple pie, a raspberry pie and a cup of hot chocolate. Everything was soooo sweet. Well, sweet is kinda subjective and I know my threshold for sweetness is a bit low… so maybe what seems as too sweet for me might just be normal for many others… but I guess it’s always good to take less sugar. The apple pie was pretty good anyway, I like that the pie crust here is soft, compared to back home where its crispy.
