Yesterday I took the two trains and the bus...

Last weekend was pretty uneventful. On Saturday we watched the Opening Ceremonies at the Olympics and were THRILLED when that one American athlete yelled a big "BABA BOOEY!!" to the camera as he passed in the parade!! People like him are part of what makes America great ( Read more... )

On Saturday I did a yoga workshop called "Deeper and deeper hip alignment." I actually did this workshop once before, at the Yoga Festa last October, and I didn't like it. But I thought I'd try again... maybe I'd like it more now that I have more experience and a deeper understanding of hip alignment yoga ( Read more... )

So I attempted those Cooking Navi oatmeal raisin cookies again. This time I put in less baking powder, and, like abbajen suggested, mixed the hard flour with the ordinary flour. The finished product was still unlike any cookie I've ever eaten. D: Ryuuji thought cooking them more would make them better, but that simply made them harder ( Read more... )

I've been training real hard recently! Yesterday in kumite I busted out my snazzy back kick.. I don't know what it's called, but basically I spin around and attempt to put my heel in my partner's ribs. It doesn't always work.

But yesterday it worked beautifully, to the point that my opponent (a very strong, muscular man) was on the ground and ( Read more... )

Using my DS game I whipped up dinner just now. I made the Balsamic Vinegar Salad with Salmon and Avocado again, and I also made something new, Goya Champloo. I followed all the steps and the goya champloo would have been really yummy.... if it didn't have goya in it. :P YUCK. Goya is one thing that is definitely not suitable for human consumption.

Hay guy, what up. Today I would have only had two classes, but Irene went back to Canadia for a friend's wedding so I had to cover one of hers. But still, only three classes is a super easy day at my school. Unfortunately the day dragged cos I was bored and I've been feeling pretty under the weather lately, emotionally and physically. Emotionally, ( Read more... )

Karate was so awesome today, cos only three people besides me decided to show up. As the lowest belt there, I got lots of personal attention from Fujimoto-sensei! yay! I fucked up the waza, boo! Later he partnered me up with the mysterious Aoki-san to practice punching combos, and Sensei said my punches have gotten a lot stronger. Yay!! But now ( Read more... )

Spent the afternoon watching Bridget Jones' Diary: The Edge of Reason, which wasn't nearly as good as the first one. I mean, the cast did their best but the script was just awful. Still not a bad way to spend two hours though. :/ Also, Colin Firth is hot but he only has one facial expression. Why is this ( Read more... )
