Foosa-la-goop-a-goop

When your accounting tutorial is maddening, when your studying efforts seem to be making little progress, and when you're starting to worry that two weeks won't be enough to cover everything, what do you do?
Have a chocolate chip cookie. Dipped in a mug of cold milk.

Have another one. And another. Have three.

Have half a packet.

And when that fails to abate your worrying and the gloominess related to the unfinished tute remains, have an apple.

And when you're stuffed to the brim in an unpleasant way, regret it. And tell yourself: "an over-full stomach does not make things better".

But those cookies dunked in milk were pretty damn good.

Just now, in an effort to cram all my reading (reading, who'd think I'd still be doing essay questions in engineering!), I decided to stay up past 1 am.

So I had 2 rounds of pasta, and a strong cup of coffee.At about 3-ish, I decided to turn in, and then only the caffeine starts kicking, so I thrashed and turned in the covers for an hour or so.

Now its 4.16am, and I'm here. Gotta love coffee.

I'll just wait until Subuh then.

Exam starts Thursday! Yikes!

aman:betul2. chocolate and milk make one of the best combinations.

nak makan cookies lagi skarang. tapi dah habis :(

Eh,eh. I'm happy for you for the recent turn of events in your life! (just because I don't comment doesn't mean i'm not blog-stalking you either).

fatin:HAHAHAHAHAHA.not bad, not bad. but what you ate sounds delicious! mee kari and nasi lemak! MMMMM(buat suara macam homer simpson nak donut). one math problem yang tak boleh diselesaikan can make anyone have a 3 course meal,hahaha.

aijud:an all-nighter,woot! I trust you managed to finish you reading? bagus2. the effects of coffee are strange. when I want it to keep me awake, it doesn't. when I want to sleep, barulah nak force me to be all wide-eyed and blinking.

oooh, pasta sounds good at a time like this. I'm thinking of trying to make fried macaroni tomorrow.

GOOD.LUCK.UNTUK.EXAM. so lucky you finish earlier. eh!eh!when do you finish and are you going back straight away?aaah. nak balik awal jugak.

nani:jangankan kasi you half a packet, i'd bake you a batch myself if you were here!(disclaimer: tastiness of home-made cookies are not guaranteed. but it's the effort that counts!).

When in doubt, pendek kate find any food. can be cookies. can be pati burger ayam.

afnan:haha, yummest indeed. betul2, the miserable feeling that comes after a night of unproductive studying and overeating sucks. Bile bangun pagi I feel like 'dah lah tak pandai, dah lebih gemuk pulak tu'. heh. tapi I still do it over and over again.

Atiqah said...

hot chocolate and ice cream AND a chocolate bar melted in? How delightfully sinful,haha. it sounds gorgeous, I must try that someday.
