Day 4 and 5: work, eats and dressing up! ^_^

Hi my lovely blog friends!!! How are you doing???? I'm doing GREAT!!!! Enjoying the company, munching on great food, working hard and dressing up properly!~ ^_^Quick recap of the yummiest, finest, more beautiful food that I've been munching these days!
Sunday dinner was in a friend's home..... she prepared us a lot of great Chinese food!
I began to work on my research on Monday. I went to Star's office since his office is in the top floor (24) with river view.ME trying to work after the fabulous weekendUnfortunately I was not productive at all in this fabulous office. Too fabulous to focus on work!
It made me wonder if what I am doing is what I want. Since people without a Ph.D degree are having better work condition that I do... Why do I like to torture myself and live miserably????
Anyway, move onto Monday's lunch at my fav vegetarian restaurant again (I go there almost everyday for lunch) A gigantic salad with pumpkin sauce and plain tofuI went home to work... it was a frustrating day of work. Luckily I had Star took me to a nice restaurant for dinner. I munched on this basket of fresh bread (I can eat them as meal! )I order salmon and Star ordered lomo steak and then we switch the plate and I had two piece of the lomooh..... this is sooooo good... so tender and juicy... I've never enjoyed so much Argentinian meat before. how was it possible to not like meat living in the country with the best meat in the world?
Dessert was ice creamTuesday. we went to another coffee for breakfast: the usual, me toast with cheese and jams and Star had croissant. I worked at home and had lunch in the veg restaurant. I had a small salad (actually it was big enough for a meal I think) and two soy-spinach burger with tomato and pumpkin sauce. It was the best burger ever!!!!!
For dinner we went to a very romantic restaurant with river view with a couple. I had Star besides me and looking stars in the sky.

How FUN!!!! : )

That Chinese food looks like Chinese food I'd LOVE to eat (rather than the fake Chinese buffets around here, lol).

I don't think I could work in that wonderful office, either!

(Ha, and don't worry, your pictures spoke for themselves;)

Looks like you are enjoying yourself! Don't stress out too much about the research. Sometimes I wonder why I chose to get a graduate degree, too...but in the end I think it will be worth it. :-)

Love all your eats! And I'm so glad you can spend time with Star!

All that food looks so delish! It's okay I work by myself a lot of times and I even catch myself having SUPER unproductive days :)

if i lived in argentina i would eat meat... i just don't approve of the way that meat is sold here in the u.s. the industry is so corrupt and cruel :(
