That awesome moment, after hitting chest and tris so hard, that you face-plant while foam rolling your quads.
:D
booo.
I have this perfect workout planned… but its going to have to wait. I was in the kitchen (at kitchen on fire) all day prepping food for the study, rushed home to drink a little water, snack a little oats, then head to head to the nonprofit to work. I don’t plan on being out til 9pm. le sigh*
I had to prep 60 Indian lunches and 60 dinners for our study. During that, I told Danielle, “I don’t want rice for the next 2 weeks.”
oops. Gobi aloo rice bowl (except i got a fatty discount) and a tiramisu cupcake because they ran out of salted caramel. All enjoyed in my gorgeous office as i pull a late night here again.
The cupcake: “A ladyfinger crust, espresso soaked cake, topped with mascarpone frosting and chocolate shavings.” - from their website
Beast Mode. On.
Today’s leg workout was killer. I am SO glad it’s summer so I can split up my muscle groups instead of doing 3 full bodies now! :) I LOVE IT!!!
Even better, I got to come home to this yummy shake. I love that bottle SO much. Before my session tonight, I made my vegan mango lassi. It was perfect for this hot weather! :)
Gladiator.
WAS. SOOO. FUN.
Even with the wakeup time of 5:30 am.
We all met up at the hotel to get ready and left! First came packet pick up, then we headed for the start line.
Sam and S let us go ahead, so Danny and I busted. this. shiizzz.
We ran what we could and walked up to each obstacle. WE OWNED IT. The spools were SO easy for us to get over! After we finished, we had time to clean off a little, take pics, then head back to part of the course to cheer everyone else on. I loved the very finish with the fire! It’s like i was hurdling all over again :)
I lost my shades (they matched with my girls!) in one of the first few obstacle courses- the polar bear plunge. And during part of Papa Hamburger Hill, Danny was talking about how he knew he was going to twist his ankle. At that moment, I twisted mine. It’s fat, painful self is getting rest and ice as we speak.
There were mud crawls, rope climbs, hills, tires, everything.
SO FUN.
That and the two beers at the end were pretty amazing too. ;)
Bonus: the founder guy ended up asking for a picture with us. I’ll post that once they post it on their site.
These are courtesy of Sam and Danny. :)
Here’s a baby polar bear getting tickled.
I want to cuddle with it! Baby animals are the cutest!
My third reblog ever (i believe) only because I LOVE POLAR BEARS!! <3 <3
The simplest of joys.
After waking up super early to get to the hospital, coming home for a nap, then working hours upon hours at the non-profit before deciding to call it a day, I went over to my fav boba shop.
And Kenny-boo hooked. it. up.
My cup was half filled with boba, lychee jelly, and mango jelly. Oh man, oh man.
Time to eat really quick before heading back into the office!
Today
I studied for national registry then went on my photoshoot.
It became a photoshoot turned adventure turned, “we need to go on food adventures together sometime.”
When I first heard his voice onthe phone, I thought he sounded “meh.”
When I met him in person, I thought he was insanely gorgeous.
Then we worked together and had so much fun that we are apparently going on a date. hahah
confession: hair was totally pointless once we got on set. The wind messed up my curls!!
I can’t help but love the lipstick colour though. I normally NEVER wear lipstick unless its for a shoot, but i really dig the way it looks on me
I like…

I love how people will be all nice to you when they want something from you.
Then they turn right around and are the biggest douchebags in the world.
Yeah.. I hope you read this and think I’m writing about someone else, because me telling you this straight up is probably going to make you cry again… And I feel bad for making you cry.. :\
