As promised

Hi :).

God the week b4 an exam like physics is stressful, especially given its importance (im kinda hoping I DONT fail the foundation year and have to go back to riyadh :’)). Its not even the hardest or most important exam, the other two fully fledged exams are LEAGUES harder and are a bigger percent of their respective modules, but I also have a lot more time to study for them (AND I WILL). Im really happy its over for now though, the days since wednesday have been a lot less stressful.

Also passed by eid, so Eid Mubarak to anyone who I havent said it to yet :). Bit late but better than nothing.

Anyways, BUTTER CHICKEN.

I MADE IT. I CAN DO ANYTHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING >:).

Honestly its such a tossup though. Cooking feels like such a goddamn superpower when it works, my brain sorta just turns off for a couple of hours when I cook labour intensive recipes like the from-scratch chillidogz or the butter chicken, and it feels like a fully regain consciousness with a full tub of food that’ll last me days.

ITS GREAT :D(And feels like im using magic) but when it fails, IT FUCKING FAIIIIIILLLLLS. I cant stand to waste food, so usually I just scarf it down too, like the noodles I made an hour ago (I mixed two flavour packets with microwaved sour cream, I DID NOT think it through) or the rice I put way too much seasoning in and had to eat for like a week because I thought itd be smart to make 4 CUPS OF RICE THAT DAY. Still though, its totally worth it.

Im probably gonna make chicken strips next, wish me luck :0.

I do also wanna make cookies, but there’s only one small issue with that (its not really in the way but it bothers me and id be making things worse if I continued ignoring it). THE OVEN TRAY IS FILTHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. LOOK

I got some stuff to try and clean it, since I didnt do my due diligence and deep clean it after I made the chilli, but you wanna know what bothers me the most about this?

THIS IS AFTER I CLEANED IT. AFTER.

HOW??? >:(. HOW IS IT STILL SO DIRTY??????????????????????????

For reference, I used vinegar and baking soda and left it for half an hour, and then some boiling water for 10 minutes. Rinsed it (had to throw two sponges with how dirty they got) for like 20 minutes after that and somehow it still looks like its been rusting for years.

And I know, i’d just be using a seperate tray for the cookies anyways, but given the fact that cooking with the tray like this would make things worse, ill have to hold that thought till this is fixed.

I at least have two more things in mind right now to try and clean it since the first combination didnt work. Im gonna leave it in some boiling hot water and washing liquid overnight, and hopefully ill be able to scrub things off by tomorrow. If that doesnt work though just pray to god that theres some sort of solution I can buy while im out tomorrow to fix this because DAMN is it gross.

Gross oven tray aside, I would genuinely be braindead if I didnt mention the fact that deltarune chapter 3 and 4 are finally out.

and also chapter 5 is next year and not in the next 4 to 5 years??????? Saying that now sounds insane but im really happy to hear it :p.

I did do myself a bit of a disservice and watched most of it instead of playing it, but honestly I just dont have it in me to play it right now, Ill probably do it all from chapter one onwards once chapter 5 is closer to releasing.

The game itself though? Holy shit. The lore, the new sprites, the new characters, I love it all so much. Chapter 4 goes especially hard, because as much as I loved tenna and his antics, the knights antics and the titan that spawned in chapter 4 were AWESOMEEE, so was gerson :). My goat boy ralsei also went through A LOT, hate to see it given the fact that people STILL THINK HES UNTRUSTWORTHY, HUH??????? You guys are crazy, just the release of chapters 3 and 4 wiped out 99.99% of ralsei disbelievers and the fact that any at all still exist is BAFFLING.

I wish 1000 years of solitude and thoughtful reflection upon all of you for doubting such a cute goat kid, Like this post to affirm
