Half watching the Pommel horse men's finals on the Olympics as I type this. Absolutely love watching gymnastics.

Anyway, it's Sunday night! Which means, another week to conquer :( But it's already August, which means I'm down to the last two months of internship! Can't believe that four months are over already.

Been able to clock in another two runs this week, which I'm happy to say of course! Trying to keep up with at least 2 runs a week and then I shall see whether I can push to 3 times a week! Anyway on Friday night I was at Javier's and we were making protein bars! Made with ingredients high in protein and as healthy (as we could find), these things taste really good!

Final product! My pictures look like shit cos they're all from my iPhone 4 unfortunately.

You start off with some oats for the dry ingredients

And some protein powder! hehe

Pour them together and mix them up!

As for the wet ingredients: peanut butter, milk, manuka honey

As well as dark chocolate

Vanilla essence, and coffee powder!

The wet ingredients are tossed into the microwave for it to melt and get mixed together, before pouring everything into a large mixing bowl and stirring it until it becomes this batter which is thick and sticky. Lay it on waxed paper over a pan or something! And we froze it for 30 minutes in the freezer and it was done! Easy aye ;)

Then on Saturday, had dinner with Javier's family because it was his dad's advanced birthday dinner! Buffet at Sheraton Towers in Newton, here's a photo of Javier, Joel, Rachel and I! Future in-laws, hopefully. Hehehe.

Have a good week ahead everybody! :)

Running day #2!

Decided to run again yesterday! Initial plans were to run with Lj, but so much shit happened before I even got home. See, I usually go home by taking 89E from Loyang to Sengkang, then hop on the trains after that. takes me about an hour to get back.

But yesterday, I missed the first 89E the moment I stepped out of the office. Decided to wait for the next, and ended up missing that too because it was far too full to pick up anymore passengers. Gave up and took a bus to Tampines instead, and told Lj To go ahead without me because by the te I reach home it'll be 8 or so already. So plans cancelled, decided to call my mom and meet her for dinner instead. But as soon as I got to Bishan, Javier texted me and told me to go join him and Ashwind at the gym. Since I already had plans to run, decided to go for it! True enough it's really much easier to run on the treadmill. Clocked in a slightly better time/distance than the day before, thankfully! :)

No more procrastination!

Finally got out of my laziness streak and went for a run today!! Truth be told I haven't ran in months, or maybe even a year now. But since I turned 19 I totally had an epiphany to start exercising. Although I think it partially has to do with the insane amount of good food I had that week. No complains, of course, and I'm actually quite excited to embrace this new lifestyle to be healthy! Have always been supporting Javier when he goes to the gym or does other sports because I'm happy that he wants to be healthy. But for now, I need the same kind of support! And honestly people around me have been really nice! Making promises to me that they will accompany me to run as well. Let's just hope that all of these wouldn't just diminish with decreasing attention span. I really do want to make it work!
