Promise is most given when the least is said.
-George Chapman

after all the craze..i still have a weakness for boba=). mmm. if ever i crave it at work, at least there's little tokyo's senka cafe to fulfill the taste. sooooo good! good flavor for a regular milk tea and the boba is always soft and chewy. i hate when i go to places and the flavor is so bland and too watery and the freaking boba is all hard.

so yay it's friday. the weekend couldn't have come at a nicer time. lots of stuff that i need to catch up on and get to see some familiar faces tomorrow=). should be fun. especially if we're going to make a pit stop at the carlsbad outlets. well not like i can buy anything right now, but always feels nice just walking around and relaxing for a bit.

is it a sign of getting old if my wrists feel so prone to carpal tendonitis right now? my knees still ache after a good run? sometimes my heels hurt in the morning-stupid plantar fasciitis? i started to get lace bite from my running shoes? (which i think i fixed so far). and that my arse got worked by peters canyon this past saturday? no right? okay good=).

man, so lou finally got my lazy ass back to peters canyon on saturday. seeing as how the agoura half is next saturday it's about time i ran the canyon. we used to run it a lot when training for the mud run and it helped out soooooo much during the run bc there's a few trail inclines. i think the highest one is about a 500 ft elevation change, so good training right? yeah, i could barely finish the first incline, let alone the last one. i guess the main motivation is seeing lou run ahead of me so i keep trying to catch up to him. i hate how he can still beat me at those inclines=P.

i was so sore on sunday, it hurt to go up and down stairs! and to think, the agoura run has us going through the canyon trails in the Santa Monica mountains...ahhh with an elevation change of more than 700 ft=/. and of course this occurs mainly during miles 5-8! talk about exhausting, then it's all downhill from there. but man running downhill is such a workout on your thighs! dude what were danielle and i thinking? oh well, it should be interesting. i'm sure you'll get an update from me afterwards. i'm scared.

i have no idea why i'm so particular about certain things. and i have trouble asking people for help. i like to do things on my own, especially when i'm having fun doing them. but i guess when it starts getting to the point that i can't fall asleep bc i keep thinking about things, when i'm taking control of things that i really shouldn't be doing, and i don't get to spend much time with louie boy...then i guess it's time for reinforcements. ahhhhhh.

less than 4 months? crazy.

The most wasted day of all is that during which we have not laughed.

dude i lag. totally though i'd update more this year, but things have been quite hectic these days. i'm so esleepy mang. since work found out i wasn't running the marathon, i got to work it instead. woohoo to 3am shifts=/. and now i'm feeling the effects of working yesterday. heavy head and droopy eyes, sooo tired. i hope that's all it is, can't be getting sick right now. poor louieboy is at home sick with the flu. trying my best to stay healthy=).

i'm eating a pluot right now. what's a pluot you might ask? well according to our wiki friend : It is a complex cross hybrid of plum and apricot, being ¾ plum and ¼ apricot in percentage. Can't really taste so much apricot, but it is sweet. well except the skin part, it's still sour like a plum. pretty good though.

so i've been wanting to blog this forever. just that my dad is soooo funny and cute. here are my two instances:

1) walk over to his cube (yes we work in the same department) and he's on mapquest. you know how when you enter your address, there's a line above it that says Place Name (optional) e.g Airport blah blah? hahaha well when he was typing he wrote out his full name on the Name part, then filled out our address like usual. i was like what're you doing dad, you don't have to put that. and he was so adamant that you do and said he wrote it all the time. ahhhh funny dad.

2) feb. 13. dad calls and tells me to go over to his desk. so i walk there, aww and he gives me a necklace. says he got one for my mom and us 3 sisters. haha i'm like dad you're one day early! he just laughs and says it's okay, early happy valentine's. soooooooo cute. my dad is so goofy that it's funny seeing him all sentimental. he was so proud of himself too when he said he picked it out and everything.

yeah, had to write it. cuz i know when i get in my funk moods w/ my parents, i need to remind myself of the silly things they can do. then it'll cheer me up and realize i'm being a moron and get over it.

why does it feel like there's no time for anything anymore. even just for a simple cup of chai, i feel like i have to drink it fast bc there's something that needs to be done. aww i miss the simple days of being a kid..don't we all? at least we got to spend some time with the fam on saturday. that's always good. hahah especially when it's drama free=P

random post i know.
