In the Life Log - Day 54 in My Musings

Today was a REALLY good day. If I may say, the best I’ve had since I started writing again 53 days ago. None of the following were experienced today: weird dreams, wave of sadness, and panic attacks. It also helped, maybe, that today was the last day of class.

Earlier, the different groups presented their slides with regard to the Privacy Impact Assessment case study that they chose. Being the 3rd group, we initially expected to be the last. As fate would’ve had it, however, the facilitator chose to begin from us. I did the presentation and was thankfully able to pull through. We were commended by our assessor for being comprehensive in the details, which made us happy. After the presentations were over, we had an exam brief of sorts i.e., the details on how we would proceed with the actual certification exam (Friday next week). Since that was the only agenda for the day, we ended before lunch time and the rest of the day was idle for me.

At around 5 pm, I went to this Chinese restaurant at a commercial center near my area that had a dimsum-all-you-can promo. The queue was very long, as expected, and it took about 2 hours to be seated. The food was still stellar, although the wait in-between serving time was quite frustrating. Their flagship dumplings, for example, had a processing time of about an hour while the rest of the dishes in the promo were in the lines of 20-30 minutes. Since this is not the restaurant’s first time in conducting the promo, I would’ve expected for them to be ready for the crowds; but it seems they were not. I finished about past 8:30 p.m., which could’ve been cut shorter.

As I already trained late in the gym earlier, it was not as packed. I trained legs and got a really good pump. Squats left me gassed out, however, even if the tonnage I used was my usual warm-up weight. Cardio was ok too; while it felt a bit tedious in the first 20 minutes, the pace suddenly picked up after that.

It’s finally the weekend. Finally looking forward to getting some quality sleep and go back to my old body clock.

Overall rating for the day: 9/10
