When Crunching is Over…

I’m going to go to the gym 2 hours a day, 7 days a week. Work has been feeding me unhealthy crap and I’ve just been sitting around all day. I do try to go to the gym during lunch to get some exercise, but I feel that it’s not enough. The fat around my belly jiggles and I can grab a good chunk of it in my hands. Only two more weeks left. Ganbare~!

Karaoke Skype

So a group of my FFXI friends have been singing over Skype for the last two nights. We’d take turns picking a song and belting out our best (which in reality is probably our worst). I’d google the song lyrics quickly before I start singing. Last night, I had to help a newb (or RMT, I wasn’t sure) get to Jeuno, so I ended up singing Life is Like a Boat by Rie Fu since I knew that song well enough to not need lyrics in front of me… I wonder if we’re going to be singing tonight? …

Matcha Meringue Cookies

I baked some meringue cookies last night. Since I needed to go to bed, I decided to try putting them in the oven that was hotter than what the recipe called for and let them bake in the residual heat. I think it might need a bit more matcha powder to make it taste good as a green tea cookie, otherwise it’s pretty good.

I want to try to make this cookie a few more times before I move on to the next cookie. I’m thinking of a buttery/flakey cookie with an egg yolk gleam on top. Can’t remember what they’re called…

Stupid People Shouldn’t Drive

For my lunch hour, I wanted to go to the Santa Monica Pier to take pictures for Flickr 888 group pool so off I went with 4 of my coworkers. Unfortunately, I got nothing spectacular. :\ And I found out how hot the sand can get on the bare feet. Ouch! >_<

After walking around the Santa Monica Pier, we decided to leave. I bought a star map. >.> It had crimes commited by or involved famous stars. Such a waste of money. :x

As we were leaving the parking lot, a very dumb woman went the wrong way. It took her a minute to figure out that she was going the wrong way. And it also took her a few more minutes to back out. It also didn’t help that there was another driver that got behind the first driver. I honked a few times in an effort to let the 2nd driver know that he’s going the wrong way. It took him a minute to figure out that he was going the wrong way as well… As the first driver was trying to get out, she scraped into the wall. I don’t think she knew how to drive her car backwards. Those types of people shouldn’t be driving. If you can’t read signs, don’t drive. If you can’t drive backwards, don’t drive. So simple.
