Market research

Yeh! I mentioned before how the London Business School pay people here to take surveys right?

Got another today - on decision making in auctions and negotiations. How interesting. This one only took me about 15-20 minutes to finish it. But not as simple as the last survey. Had to write more about feelings and emotions in this one. But nonetheless, good money! Hope there will continue to be more of such surveys in the near future!

Then walked down to Leicester Square to check out the restaurants available for dinner. This Jap girl I got to know in my hostel recommended this Misato restaurant - budget and huge servings. Definitely a place to bring the guys to makan when they come at the end of the year. But then again, quite stupid to pay so much when you can get cheaper and better Jap food in Singapore.

Walked up to this other Thai restaurant that had good reviews. But I'm craving for Jap. So can keep that for another time.

Then proceeded to Leicester Square Park to do my reading. Found a nice bench and did my reading. Until this stupid guy sat on the next bench and started smoking some foul smelling cigarette. Urgh!


Too timid to tell him to move away - easier that I find somewhere else to sit. Besides, I was kinda getting bored and cold...


Iggy messaged about watching a play over at Barbican but we'd still meet at Leicester Square for dinner, so I found myself another bench and continued with my reading.

Started getting distracted and bored after a while and I took out my camera to take photos... Sian of taking photos, continued with my reading...


Finally, Iggy arrived and we went for dinner. Interesting that he mentioned I chose the noisiest park to study in. The most quiet place is the noisiest place and the noisiest is the most quiet. Guess that's me - bipolar.


Anyway, proceeded to Misato for dinner. Slight queue but not that long. Ordered tempura udon when I saw their huge servings of rice. Wanted to have Jap curry actually, but NO WAY was I going to be able to finish the HUGE mountain rice that they serve. Maybe the next time. After I starve myself for 24 hours... Iggy had a bento set with a variety of sushi and other small items.


After dinner, the play at the Barbican was really strange. Indescribable...
