Long, long MDW weekend recap

Image
I'm still having withdrawals from a jam-packed half week with my love(s) in Norcal Sat I spy a unicorn! Drove to Norcal then almost immediately the bros took me to Sac Valley shooting range (but not before we grabbed a few tacos from the taco truck :D). I got to shoot with the AK-47 and AR-15. my goodness... I can't believe my manfriend and friend has those guns #murica. It was quite fun to be at the shooting range. Although, I have no idea if I even hit the target with the heavy-duty guns. I think we were just shooting with the guns mainly for the thrill, ha. On the otherhand, I am a good shot (pun hehe) with the handgun. first bullet to the head, second bullet to the chest. pew pew. When we finally left the shooting range, we came upon a saloon in our path. We're in gun country now boys . I think we got 4 amber ales for $10, holy so cheap. And of course country songs were being played, with people shooting pool in the background. The coolest part of the saloo...

1/12 til Hawaii - the weekend

Image
Ok, so I will try not to indulge so much in the next 11 weeks. But this weekend I saw my friends and also my manfriend came to visit me. So here's my last "hurrah" to eating and drinking beers leisurely! Met up with Bellies and had Umenoya ramen, in Torrance. haha their spice is pretty killer, and I only got level 1 T_T. Definitely felt it later.. Then we headed towards  Newport beach and rushed to go watch Furious 7 in Imax! Such a bittersweet movie :(. So many feeeeels~ and I love how the franchise is tying in everything to past movies (namely Toyko Drift ), and also how they alluded to Paul Walker's death and good bye in the movie without killing off his character. continuing on - Right afterwards, we kind of rushed to the Newport beach beer festival . I found the Groupon VIP deal but unfortunately we weren't able to take advantage of the extra hour of beer tasting, and also it was dark by the time we arrived. It would've been wonderful sitting on th...

1/12 til Hawaii - Friday

Image
Week 1 Friday BRB, Nikki Blackketter is my fitspiration. haha and yes I watch her workout movies to motivate me and also to make me get pumped up for my own workout. Drank black coffee out of a hello kitty cup (like a boss) and went to the gym to do a fasted Back workout: wide arm lat pulldowns close grip pulldowns cable rows, rope face pulls bar pushdowns/triceps single lat pulldowns unilateral rows 5 mins of cycling However, afterwards I met with my friend and had a huge cup of taro slushy + egg pudding + boba. I'm fat .. I figured.... I can still treat myself to my cravings for a little bit, but I really need to hone it down furreal for the next 11 weeks HEH. I promise after this weekend? o:) why after this weekend? Because my manfriend is visiting mee <3

Norcal visit & adventures

Image
A couple weeks ago I was able to take a break from work and spend a whole week in Norcal with my manfriend and see all my friends as well! He had work throughout the week but we were able to do normal couple things afterwards like binge-watch tv ( Better Call Saul!) and movies and pig out together. Manfriend always wants to watch scary movies with me, but I absolutely hate scary, so we compromised with the Purge movies. We also got to be a 'buff couple" - well he's buff, I'm really not - and worked out at the gym. However, we also ate so well throughout my visit <3. My heart is in my stomach  hahah Once the weekend commenced we were able to hike, dance with friends, and adventure around San Francisco! In my noobie youtube video, you'll see the Hidden Garden Steps, boba cravings and jenga, and Sunday Funday  housewarming activities. I can't really tell you which day was my favorite. I had so much fun spending time with my loved ones while seeing beautifu...

Monday - 25 days left

Yesterday I checked my mail and finally got this bad boy from Groupon: Jarv NMotion bluetooth earbuds with sports armband. It has changed my life. HAHA jk, but it's super convenient to not have to wear an armband and just have my phone in my bag or on the table. I can't wait to use this at the gym when I don't have to constantly take out my phone from the armband if I want to text or look up something (haha I know I know, I shouldn't be texting so much while doing my workouts, but at least I do it quickly and after a set is done, right?). o:) Imagining how it'd feel to have bewbs melon sized. Isn't this mini watermelon so cute though Last time I was doing a countdown, or more like a countup of workouts to Halloween, but this time I decided to just do a countdown of days til  12/12  since I seemed to lose count of when I worked out or not.. [12/12 is when I get to see Mr. Marshmallow!] Therefore I have almost 4 weeks to keep working on ma body. Usually at...

Well, I was counting days till Halloween. It has passed now

It's only been like 1.25 week since I got my LASIK done. Seems like forever ago! The dry eyes have gotten better and halos around the lights at night is less halo-ish. But I still haven't really worked out except for light fasted cardio and pullups/chinups . I'm still too scared to do pushups and go lift. I think when it has passed 2 weeks I'll finally go to the gym! I actually can't wait. It's crazy how 2 weeks of no lifting really played a number on me. Ok to be honest I did lose weight while doing low carb/keto diet and fasted cardio in the morning. But I need more than that. It probably was mostly water weight and whatever gains I made on my booty. I feel so strong and more confident when I push myself at the gym with weights. I can imagine my muscles shriveling and my body fat enveloping me more currently.. Another thing I am looking forward to is putting on eye makeup. Holy crap... I look tired without makeup but my awesome friends and manfriend t...
