this past weekend was interesting...
friday night...sis and i went to cheri's birthday dinner. it had too much going on. it was in beverly hills at the barefoot restaurant. the place was definitely upper class. once we get settled down, the waiter was incredibly rude; the bread was cold and there was an ant crawling across the table. looks are definitely deceiving. one of cheri's friends kept complaining so much that the restaurant gave us free shots. i didn't take any since i don't drink. i couldn't believe it. that visit had to be my worst restaurant experience. afterwards, everyone went to the club that night, but i decided to head back since i had a race in the morning.
saturday... i raced in the morning. it was so unorganized, but at least i got that out of the way. i haven't raced since my undergrad years. it went alright considering that 80% of the course was uphill. my time was slower than i wanted, but that is alright. my college times are within reach. i now know what areas i need to improve. afterwards, i went on a date. we went to the movies and then to lunch at an italian restaurant in torrance. he has good qualities like the fact that he can hold his own with an eclectic set of topics. i literally tested him. i'm impressed with his responses to the hard core issues i was throwing down. at this time, the sun just set and we parted ways. later on that night, i went to dinner with casten, krisin, iven, and his friends. it was a cool night with good company. i haven't seen kristin since we were 12 years old. she just moved back here from pennsylvania.
sunday...coach took me on an 8 mile run. he brought angelina with him who is a marathon runner for guatamala. it was grueling, but i needed it. i need more and more distance. he took me out to palos verdes which has alot of hills. that run tore me up. once i got home, i got ready to go to work out in hollywood as a pianist. i was so tired that i slept in church for like a second. god understands that i was tired. from hollywood, i went to a recital rehearsal in palos verdes. once that was over, i went on another date with the same guy from saturday. we ended up going to a japanese restaurant. it was nice. i like small restaurants. they make the best food. while we were eating, we were playing chess. at the end of the night, we were tied. i need a rematch. i don't like ties...
