Night out on the town

Out with the homies checkin out the nightlife. It has been awhile since I checked out the scene. Let's see what crazy things I see tonight!

Friday Night

This was such a long day... The end.

The Susan

Ever since Susan Boyle got on Youtube, I have been playing that song over and over and over again during work to get me through my day. She has such a lovely voice. She is the quintessential example of how not to judge someone by their looks, because she made all those people who doubted her look real stupid! I really do not have much to write about tonight. It was a long work day, 2 workout sessions, and choir practice. I need some sleep. Good night!

SUSHI!!!

Today, I went to the Sushi place near the Southpoint area... and THAT SUSHI was ON POINT! OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!! I am definitely going back again! The Sushi was pretty much the highlight of my day. I dont know why I went there, I just did. I asked a fellow from Church to join me, and so we went. It is good to socialize. I have not been doing too much of that as of lately with anyone. I am trying to change that, but I am just so caught up in other things, good things that I need to have focus on.

Great things lie ahead. My future has not been written. Would you like to know more? Turn the page!

Another Busy Day

Nothing much here. worked out twice, went to work twice, tutored once, and went salsa dancing. Yea, I have not danced in quite a while, but it is nice to know that I still have some of the technique down. Once some other issues clear up, I will be able to return to salsa full time. good night

Intermediate Workout Blues

So this week begins my first full week in my intermediate weight training series. Most of my exercises in general are the same for each body group, with the substitution of some with 'new' exercises. With Lent and Holy Week over, I can finally go back to not only my 2-a-day workout routine, but eating several (healthy) meals a day. On Mondays, I work my shoulders, triceps, biceps, and forearms. What is different from the beginner series is the fact that now, I have to do 3 sets instead of 1. Even when I was doing one set, I was seeing quite a bit of gain, and as I kept track of my workouts, I was noticing that I was increasing the weight every workout. But when I started doing three sets of my new list of exercises for this particular week, it was a nightmare. the workout plan I am following suggests doing 3 sets of 6 reps per exercise at a weight you feel comfortable with. I (barely) made my 6 reps/set quota on all of my exercises. So this means I am at the right weight to build off of. The worst exercise was the wrist roller. That thing will work your forearms to death and I felt friggin murdered after doing 3 reps on my WARM UP set. Wrist roller is no joke!

I can only imagine what Wednesday (legs) will bring in terms of the extended set weight training. I wonder if I will be able to walk.

Going to bed now, gotta get up early!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone!

So today, I donned the mint-green Nautica, the striped tie, and the Kenneth Cole slacks! Facial hair gone, contacts on, GQing it up! LOLOL. Anyways, in terms of the message, there was no real assertive difference between the homily I heard from the vigil mass and today's mass. Basically because if people can not make the Sunday service, they go to the Saturday one, to get the same message. But it is good for me to hear the same thing twice. Most of the time I have to hear things twice to 'get it' once. I know, I am slow, but I am getting much better, and I am farther along than where I used to be years ago. I think the most hilarious thing was the fact that at the Vigil mass, the church was at near capacity and the gospel choir did its thing! Everyone was on point, especially, for once in my choir career, me! Today, the church was jam-packed with people, but the traditional choir sang (the one that normally sings on Saturday). Something told me then, that they were expecting the gospel choir. But when they saw some of us in the pews, especially me, well... So yea, I thought that-that was interesting. The traditional choir sang beautifully. Trust me on this one, I know! I am glad that the Lenten season is over, and that Holy Week is finally behind me.

It was a time of focused self-discovery and soul searching. And even now, I continue my soul-searching and my self-discovery. Where the road of my life takes me only the Lord knows. But I do look forward to returning to my two-a-day exercise routine, eating several meals a day, and going to work early and leaving early. So much to do in the coming days, and so little time. Right now, I rest. See you tomorrow morning!
