Last night I put up my bucket list that I’ve kept for years now and am now sharing it with the world. I’ve achieved only 30 or so of the things on that list and hope this will keep me accountable to crossing off more.
I actually went and looked up 5k races coming up but:
Ah, yes. Excuses. Thinking you will fail is one step closer to failing. Running a 5k is on my bucket list so I will be signing up for one in the future.
“Eat in moderation. Exercise in moderation. Everything in moderation.” That’s pretty much my motto now because I’ve graduated from C25K! Whoop!
I ran even faster than last time but had to slow it down again at 15 minutes from the pain in the side of my hip. It’s okay though because I have succeeded!
For the first time in my life, I am able to cover more distance running and hold my ground on running for a longer period of time. It might take a few days to rest so my hip can heal but my goal now is to faster my time.
Maybe one day I will sign up for a 5K. Maybe one day before the year ends. Here’s to wishful hoping.
After the run, I treated myself to a delicious smoothie and watched Beastly, a classic take on Beauty and the Beast and with humans instead of animation. Having Alex Pettyfer onscreen wasn’t bad at all if he wasn’t the beast because … hello.
Now it’s just catching up with blogs and Grey’s Anatomy. Good night everyone!
Last night I met up with Amanda to celebrate my super belated birthday. So after work I went home to do my usual home things, I headed into traffic.

They had Garlic Bread | free. Amanda already had some because of my tardiness.
I wasn’t a big fan of the bread. It was burnt on the other side and a little on the chewy, hard side.
Amanda said she liked it but I think she was just hungry waiting for me.
Our meal came with a very simple Salad. Always need to get my veggies in. I just wished they gave us more onions.
Beef Cannelloni [rolled pasta sheets stuffed with a mixture of ground beef and vegetables and topped with Marinara Sauce & Mozzarella Cheese then baked in the oven] | $9.99.
I’ve never had this before because I usually stick to what I know but we all gotta live so I took the chance. When they first served it I was thinking … what did I order?! But when I took my first bite … OH MY GOODNESS! It was so good! I want to recreate this at home!
Amanda wanted me to pick the dessert but since she’s a sweets lover unlike me, I let her chose and ended up with the Chocolate Mousse | $9.99.
It was soooo good!! The icing was very chocolatey, almost dark chocolate like. For a non-sweets fan myself, I ate my fair share.
Amanda
This is the first time putting up a picture of someone other than me so hopefully, she doesn’t get angry when she finds her face plastered on here. But meet Amanda. Isn’t she cute?! She was a sweetheart and paid for my meal. Thanks, girlie!
Anyway, we talked a lot. We were there for over 2 hours even after we were done eating. We caught up with what has been going on with one another since May and what we see coming up this year. We are looking forward to a fun, fun year. Here’s to hoping!!
I had a really good time with her and am so happy I got to see her and catch up.
Mother Nature sure is amazing. The view I saw as I was driving home. There was a lot of clouds but the sun shining through is unreal.
Then it started to rain while the sun was still shining brightly. What is going on Mother Nature? Couldn’t make up your mind?!
