Gloomy Sunday.

Today is one of those lazy days that I am in. I don’t feel lazy but there is just something wrong with me. Because I am going to see sunrise today, I slept early yesterday night and Jake woke me up. As I was on the bus with him, I felt there is something wrong with me. My head was heavy, I felt tired, having headache which slowly became migraine. (It is horrible), no appetite to eat good food but only chewing WheatBix at this moment. My body feels cold. I don’t want to wear a jacket because I am doing my assignment and etc, feel that my brain is not synchronizing with my body, As we were walking towards the cliff. I really felt funny but I pressed on. When we reached to highest point, the pain was unbearable. I did not want to tell Jake to go home for we just reach and besides when he woke me up, he said it is okay if I want to continue sleeping but I said no. As Jake was taking the hammer to carve  my name and his, He asked me if  it is nice. Actually the carve is deep but it will last forever knowing that I may one day fade away. But I could not say it with a happy expression as my migraine and headache was tormenting me inside. I was in pain inside but still holding on outside. He was done carving my name so he continued his. When he had another 3 more alphabet to finish, I told him that I needed to go home for I can no longer stand it. We walked to the bus stop and waited for a bus. While waiting for the bus, I swallowed 2 tablets of Paracetamol. At last, the bus came. The bus ride from Bondi to City is about 20 minutes but at that moment, I felt it was an eternity ride to my comfy bed, quilt and pillow. I fall into a deep sleep at Woolharra suburb to the city. Jake woke me up and I was, okay we are now in the city. At time, I feel like nauseating. When we were walking pass George Street, I could easily throw up because of a weird smell. Once we crossed passed George Street, we were suppose to walk towards Liverpool Street but as I was saying my brain could not synchronize with my reflex that I was walking pass Skyview Shopping Center that lead me to Kent Street and then Liverpool Street. If after crossing George Street, it is Liverpool Street. Jake told me off. I knew I made him mad. I listen and moved on. Once the unit door was unlocked, I wished him goodnight and I doze off. I woke up feeling better but after 20 minutes, some of the migraine is in my head and I swallowed a single migraine tablet – Imigran. I just feel cloudy, ghostly, wishy washy and lack of energy level within me. If only I could clone myself. I do not know whether was it the cheese on top of the pasta that is causing me to be this way. My mum has migraine but she is very sensitive to cheese. As to my knowing, I am not that very sensitive to cheese. I love eating cheese cake but was it because i exceeded my dosage. I do not know eating cheese at what level is triggering my migraine. Having migraine is like going to hell. Infinity words to describe it.I just feel like a jerk today. Don’t feel like doing anything but keep listening to Coldplay repeatedly.  Failed to seize the day.

Czech day

Today was a Czech day for me. I did not sleep on Friday at all. I slept on Saturday morning but after breakfast. I had a really good breakfast. It was a Traditional Czech Breakfast. We went to an European grocer which was suppose to be selling Czech groceries but instead selling more German, Holland and other European Country groceries. I am glad that I went there. I was so curious. I was literally inspecting most of the items. Looking from the aspect of what is it, where is made from, the price, expiry date. Due to the fact that I had no European blood within me, I find some of the goods there reasonable without converting it to Malaysian Ringgit. I told Jake that it is not that expensive but he said it is very expensive if to compare it with Czech. Before coming to this European grocer, Jake said so much about the Czech bread especially the 2 sides of the bread loaf, (taste really good if it is baked and eaten hot fresh from the oven. And he also commented on the sausage. I must say it is one of the best sausages I have ever eaten, Most of the sausages that is commonly know is usually plastic that wraps the sausage meat together. But this was not plastic. It was Ileum. The sausage was so tender and moist. I guess I am making you hungry. I am always tempting you so you better have self – control. I had 3 long sausages measuring about 25 cm each and 3 slices of toasted Czech bread.After that we were thinking to go to Bondi Junction for there lies a Czech Baker. We did not go because the both of us did not have sleep and Jake does not want to fall sleep in a 2o minutes bus ride.We decide to go there the next time when we we watch sunrise. Because I was so taken in with the Czech meal. I was googling google to see if there is a Czech grocer or Czech restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. Unfortunately there isn’t. What was worse, I did not take the picture of my breakfast as a remembrance. Ahh. . sigh . .!

I don’t know what took Jake to make today a Czech day by eating Czech food. Yesterday night he said he wanted to cook pasta for today’s dinner. I was relatively shock. The previous time, he cooked chicken or bacon with it but yesterday he said he wanted to put sausages and that was what made me eating Czech breakfast and Czech meal for today. As I was browsing all the international food directories in Kuala Lumpur. My nearest option for eating something similar to Czech food is Austrian Food. Czech and Austria and close from the world map. Today is my second time eating European meal. It is so good. Now I am thinking that the breakfast that eat would be good if there was a fried egg. I love eating fried egg. And that was breakfast.

My Czech lunch was so simple. Hardy any oil, carb and lots or fiber and drown with yogurt and chocolate powder. It was one of the healthiest meal for a health cautious people like me. It all started by me wanting to eat yogurt and I asked him if he would like to eat some. I don’ mind if he wants and then he came out with the spontaneous idea fo lunch. It was a bowl of yogurt with cut peaches inside and broken fiber biscuit. It takes less then 10 minutes to do it but it is healthy. I kept the balance of it for my tea. I realize European food as a whole is not that only and that is also another reason why I love Europe !

My Czech dinner could not be classify as Czech. It happen to be Czech because the person who did it is a Czech. It taste good. The pasta is called ‘Spaghetti Ala Jakub’ . It taste good. Normally people would definetely eat it with fork and spoon. In my ultimate lameness, I ate it with chopstick. Jake was ‘ No way’ and I was ‘ Yeah, I am going to do it’. Indeed I did it but I did not find it that difficult. Partly I am an Asian who has been using chopstick for about 20 years and still counting. Because he cooked, I did the dishes. It did not take me long.

As a whole, I think I seize the day well and it was good food. I still do not have the pictures of what I am eating as remembrance.
