Found this lobang to complete consumer surveys at the London Business School (LBS) and get 10 pounds in return. Yeh! A chance for some money to come in. It's absolutely disgusting to be on a student's budget after spending my way through so much money for the past 4-5 years.
Anyway, walked to Regent's Park where LBS is near, another delightful 7 km walk... I wonder if the net value of weight gain through all the starch and carboh food intake and weight loss through all my walking will be positive or negative?
So interesting! There's a Sherlock Holmes Museum and some shops selling Beatles and Elvis stuff! Wished I had time to go in the last 2 shops but no time. Only had time to browse through the first one - such a delightful shop! Wish I had the guts to ask to take photos with the guard in the old-style uniform. But then again, no one to take photo for me...
After the survey was quickly settled in 15 minutes (yeh, payment in cash!), I had my lunch at Regent's Park. Super windy, weather looked terrible, hope it'd stay ok till I make my way to my campus (4 km) for the evening's Model United Nations (MUN) activity.
The weather held up. But got pretty windy as the evening came along. I had just made it to the bus-stop outside my campus when the rain came in. Phew!
MUN was very interesting! It's like a Toastmasters-Debating Society. Very high level. You are expected to research on a topic, based on a country's view and speak like a UN delegate. Need to be able to answer questions on the spot as well.
Very challenging. Very fun. I wonder if Singapore schools have anything like this. They should. Hong Kong high schools have them!
It was raining heavily after the MUN meeting. But sigh, I insisted on walking back home still. Because of my last scary incident on my way home, I decided to take a longer but brighter and less deserted route home. However, that also means I'm out on the streets for a longer amount of time and it was such bad weather. Especially when I got to the Bridge. Oh man, the wind can almost just blow me away!
But made my way home safe and sound. Didn't fall sick - thank the gods!
