Cooking on Weekend

Cooking used to be one of the most efficient ways to take my pressure off. I used to be a good cook and used to cook a lot. The last time that I really cooked something decent was about two months ago. I have been stressed out recently… and very busy. A friend of mine suggested that I should cook myself something extravagant. I agree that I need to take my mind off things that bother me. So, I walked to the Publix next door and here I am… cooking. It was raining kind hard while I was walking to the store. Got myself wet even though I was having umbrella. But it was a fun 5 minutes walking.

Find Beauties in People

Finally got my new camera. Love taking picture of people. They are so beautiful; I can always find beauties in them. You don’t have to be a model. Just be yourself; and you are the most beautiful thing in the world.

2011 Short Curly Hairstyle for Men

Most men choose not to wear many accessories, like earrings and necklace. Hair and beard are the nature accessories for men. Hairstyle for men is as important as for women.  I would highly suggest men to try different hairstyles, long, short and medium length. If you don’t try, you cannot really say which style fits you the best or which one you like the best. Let’s touch base on short and curly/wavy hairstyle today since it is the most common hair Americans have.

The great option for curly/wavy hair is short sides and back with a slightly longer top that leaves the curly wave. Short curly hairstyles are easy to manage and are very in style. It is possible to have both a straight look and a curly look if know how to use gel on your curly hair style.

Wall Climbing at Stone Summit

Woke up around 8:30 this morning. Oh, man! It’s so early. But couldn’t sleep anymore. So, here I am, blogging :)

My fingers, my arms, my shoulders , and my “six pack” are so sour. And, my arms are swollen. Not that much, but I can feel it. Went to wall climbing with my friend yesterday at Stone Summit. It was a lot fun. Everything looks so easy for him. He is tall with long arms and long legs. I am……. Well, I don’t wanna talk about it J He hurt his finger. I wish everything is ok now. But, I had a lot of fun. Thank you, AR.

Stone Summit is the Disney World of climbing. They are both cheap imitations of the real thing, but no one can deny their appeal. At only 12 bucks a person, I recommend that anyone in the Southeast make at least one trip to see this thing. This place isn't big. It is not even huge. It is massive. Stone Summit features a route that requires a 70 meter rope. Not only does the main wall top 60 feet at its highest point, but there is a second story above the lobby featuring multiple 30 foot walls.

Wall climbing, why do I like wall climbing? First of all, I recently got a lot of free time in my hands. Second of all, I need to work out. The last but the most important one is that wall climbing is very goal oriented. I want to keep myself positive and happy J

Cheers~~~~~~~

The Moster Bug

So, I was sitting on my bed and working on my report half hour ago. Too much work and I don’t have a comfortable chair to sit and work on my desk yet. I noticed something dark moving on my hardwood floor from my corner of my eye while I was concentrating on my report. I kinda know on the back of my mind what that is but I was so scared to look. But I did I look. And there is the bug the monster bug showed up in my apartment two days ago. Still alive and walking around in my apartment. I dont have much to eat in my apartment, I dont understand how can he/she survive. And... and, what the hell with the pest control thing? I knew they spray my who apt. How come it is still alive? I was and I am still freaking out. Anybody would come over and kill it for me??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!! My apartment complex is not a dump at all. It is really nice and I do pay a good amount for my little studio. Please help me understand the monster bug thing.

I am sure I cannot sleep well tonight.

My Awsome Day~~~

My day started at 12:30 this morning.  I was ready to go to sleep. I have a habit that I have to drink some water before I go to bed. I walked to the kitchen. Suddenly, I saw something on the floor… moving… omg, it’s a bug. It’s the kind of bug that is about 2 inches long with a lot of legs. I freaked out and ran away from my kitchen. I literally ran to my bed. PS, I am basically afraid of anything that has more than 4 legs.

Maybe I was to “excited” to see that thing in my kitchen; I won’t be able to sleep till 2am in the morning. My alarm went on around 7:20 am. But I didn’t wake up till 8. I was so late. Ran into shower but no time for blowing dry my hair. Luckily, the traffic was not so bad this morning. I was only 10 minutes late.

I called my apartment’s staff for pest control. But they told me they only do pest control on Tuesday, which is tomorrow. What am I gonna do with that thing possibly still in my apartment? I am not going into my kitchen for sure tonight. I guess I need to buy some dinner.

I have a leather couch. I was thinking of buying some leather cleaner/conditioner to make my sofa shinny again. I called around so many stores, finally found out that Lowe’s has that product. I stuck in traffic for a good 40 minutes then I was in Lowe’s parking lot. Yeah, I found the leather conditioner in the store. When I reached the checkout counter, you know what happened, I didn’t have my wallet with me. AGAIN. I’ve been driving the whole day without ID AGAIN. And now, I only have 27 cent on me. I was very disappointed. Since I already spent 40 minutes in the traffic, I didn’t want to waste my time. So I was thinking of calling my friends to see if anybody is around this area. I got so lucky…..My phone was out of battery and my car charger is in my apartment where the bug maybe still wandering around.

I was so close to take the leather conditioner and run away from Lowe’s… so close L Since I didn’t want to spend my night in jail, I decided to drive home. I got on the highway, but got off at the wrong exit. I got off the highway at the wrong exit on the way to my HOME. Can you believe it!!!!

I finally got home….without food……
