Breakfast at home with Patrick: scrambled eggs with cheddar, shredded hash browns with ketchup, english muffin with butter, hot tea with milk and honey. Walked and rode Muni to UCSF Laurel Heights. Sprint standup with Eric via Google Hangouts. More CPT project followup. UCSF shuttle from Laurel Heights to Parnassus. Met with Joel and Rick about course agreements. Rick is leaving us in a month to move to Vancouver, B.C. Late lunch to go from Panda Express, ate in front of Kalmanovitz Library. Panda Bowl with chow mein and mushroom chicken. My fortune: Avoid unchallenging occupations—they waste your talents. Spent the rest of the day working from the library. Rode Uber Pool to the Mission. Met Patrick at Alamo Drafthouse for dinner and the opening night showing of Crazy Rich Asians. We had purchased our tickets a bit late and were stuck with seats in the fourth row at the far left of theatre 1. Not the best angle or sound, but we survived. I think due to the angle I had trouble hearing some words clearly. Despite these issues, we thoroughly enjoyed the film. Alamo Drafthouse had a special menu for the showing. I had an orchard road cocktail. Patrick had a singapore sling. We ordered chicken satay, dumplings, mahjong cookies, popcorn. For some strange reason we failed to receive the dumplings and the popcorn which were comped in the end. $48.28 after an $8 tip. (We didn't know what to tip because we didn't know who was at fault.) Our server was Camila.
