Fast food nation
It is an irony that the one time in the semester I should be eating healthy I end up eating quick meals and junk food. My brother used to binge on hot deep fried chicken during exam season, a welcomed treat during bitter cold London winters, aided by the fact that his local chicken and chip shop was just opposite his apartment (hard to turn a blind eye when the bright neon lights from the chicken shop beam straight into your room).
To hell with health the next two weeks.
Comfort food is one of the few things that I look forward to as I drown in academic misery.
KFC for lunch it is!

Seafood Platter from Hawken Drive. Opposite Coles (I think it’s still Coles) and Video Ezy. Next to the bottelo where you can pick up your Cascade Premium Light which will wash the fish and calamari down nicely.

Hmm is this ‘A Salt and Battery’ you are talking about? I had fond memories of that place but was sorely disappointed when I ate there in Feb, the standard has dropped so much. Any other good places to recommend in Bris?

Is that what it’s called? It might be a different joint from the one I’m talking about. If you want good, authentic pizza, have you eaten the one at the Sir Fred Schonell cinema in the campus?
And if you really want to take your mind off school work, just drive down to the RE at Toowong for pub grub and cheap piss. I think it’s $1 a pot of beer in the evenings.

G: That pizza is legendary! Love it! You know, you sound like such a college boy right now. Cheap piss? But, yes, $1 for a pot is ridiculously cheap!
Jo: Allo!! Alamak, I is reaching back late late late Saturday, 2am on Sunday to be exact
But Gill and Pegs are having their housewarming on Sunday? Will you and Shanen be there? I will definitely be there, and since I am going to be a wannabe tai tai (poor student w/o a day job) I will pop by and pay you a visit within the 3 weeks! And collect cake
Yum!

Yes, that pizza is legendary indeed. The trick is to call and order in advance. Man, you’re making me miss Uni/College! I think I can still remember every nook and cranny of the campus. Makes me want to go back!
Speaking of going back, are you coming home? If you have some time, we should catch up!
