What's up world ?
I'd made a note to chat here on my cakeday and managed to just miss it in my time zone. What's everybody up to ?

Hey there! I'm not doing too bad tbh, just preparing to move to uni in the next couple of days. What's your favourite cake btw?
1
Hi ! That's great to hear ! The move to uni is a fun and interesting time. I always feel like it's never truly college until you move out.
I like chocolate cakes, but I'm soft on a nice lemon cheesecake, especially when my friends make it !
What about you ?
1
Mmm, I love lemon cheesecake. My favourite cake is hot chocolate fudge cake, with soft vanilla ice cream on the side.
1
Mm. I'd take that, and then slap a brownie on top of it and put it on a sizzling plate. Hot chocolate and cold ice is probably one of the best culinary combinations since wine and cheese !
1
Hot chocolate and cold ice, can't say I've ever tried that. One of my favourite combinations is probably gammon and pineapple.

I went to my first meeting at my school's chess club. I played 3 times and won twice, so i feel pretty good
1
Hehe wow. I think the last time I played chess properly was with my dad when I was probably 8. He beat me solid in 3 moves straight and I never felt keen after that :P.

Well happy cake day, at least you sort of remembered then. Pretty sure I forgot about mine
1
Why thank you. I'll be sure to find you on your cake day and send you a message :) !

My only class today is cancelled, so I have the day off! Just went out for lunch, now heading home to get some studying in.
1
Ooh. Whatcha have for lunch ? And what're you studying ?
2
Teriyaki chicken donburi and prawn tempura. I'm going to start with business valuation, then business ethics.
1
Ah ! Fun fun ! I love donburi and tempura ! It's such a filling meal and so so good ! I'm a huge fan of katsudons and curry rice myself. It's one of the dishes I'm trying to practice cooking in my free time !
1
Oh I love those too! Our favourite Japanese place recently closed down, so I've been looking for another place with tonkatsu as good as theirs.
1
Kind of the typical: work, workout, shower, and plopped my happy ass on the bed with CSI on the Telly. On here, too. Typical Thursday as the weekend typically keeps me busy doing something.
1
Sounds like a fun day ! Have a great weekend !
1
You,too!

Not much, I accidentally drank too strong coffee and my heart is beating SO fast
1
Ah. That's a bummer. How'd that accidentally happen though ?
2
This is actually really dumb but I used to drink this really mild coffee my dad brought from Sweden, with a little hot water, but black.
Today, I drank coffee that was leftover at home, but without even a little water. Just strong decoction.
It's not a problem any one should have had, but I'm not very bright.
Thanks for asking though, I just got back from college and am all alright : )
1
Ooh. I know what that feels like. I had a similar experience but with probably the effect of four espressos together. I couldn't sleep for an entire day. We all have these little incidents that make for nice stories :). Thanks for sharing !

I see a little cakey, so happy cake day~!!! :)
Aw, well thank you 🙂. How's your day going so far ?
Well, I have some career envy right now that you're a doctor and I'm an accountant. Your life must be very exciting!
I'm bored out of my mind and neglecting my work responsibilities by playing around here, ha. So, overall, not too bad. What about you?
Hehe, well, my life and career has its ups and downs, but most of the excitement tends to really come from my downtime when I'm up to all sorts of things.
I've got a lot of respect for accountants though. The numbers may seem mundane, but man, boy are people like you needed in order to actually get things done. I struggle to split the bill evenly when a dinner outing starts to go haywire. How y'all fathom all those heavy economic terms is beyond me !
Right now, I can't sleep much. Happy to be at home with the fam, so feeling oddly content for once. Hoping it continues into the future !
What do you like to do in your downtime ? On and off Reddit ?
Well that's like verbal teasing -- what are the exciting things you are up to during your downtime?
Ha, it's so embarrassing to admit but a lot of us in this field can't do basic math. Calculators have destroyed us. I'm in auditing so I mostly just get to be nosey and dig through people's work.
Fams are the best! :) Glad you're getting to spend time with them.
I'm not usually on reddit this much, it comes in spurts. I usually read, play video games, waste my life away. I'm trying to make the gym a "hobby" and would like to pick up hiking.
