About Me
I am a nerd. Well, a nice nerd. Some say I'm a cute nerd. Sometimes I'm a happy nerd. Sometimes I'm a sad nerd. I can be a perky nerd. Or an emotional nerd. Sometimes the raddest nerd ever. But nonetheless, a nerd. Previous Posts

Everyone should try Spam Musubi!
So I've been taking my new bike out for rides while Louis skates along, and it's been fun! Last Thursday I did 15 miles which included going up Sand Hill. It was the first time I did hills that weren't just short hills and man that was tough. My legs were totally burning, although with my new bike, I was at least able to move and make progress. On my old bike, I would have it on the easiest gear and like barely be able to peddle. Today I biked throughout Berkeley but mostly among the waterfront, so it wasn't too hilly, but it did get so windy at places it was difficult to move ahead. My goal was to do 30 miles and I did! I did like 31 or 32. The last part, we went through Campus so we could go to Top Dog and eat totally delicious hot dogs, and man, having to do some of this hills on Campus after about 29 miles was definitely not easy. My next goal is to do either 30 miles with hills or 40 miles without. I think throughout the week, I'm going to ride either my old bike to work or skate to work because it's much more of a work out than riding my new bike. I'm totally starting to see and feel a lot of definition in my thighs and calves which makes me so happy! Oh and my bike now has TWO water bottle holders which is amazing because my old one had NONE since they didn't really fit. I also have a cute little thing in the front which is called a bento box which is so funny because every time I see it, I totally want delicious Japanese food! I don't know if anyone has had Spam Musubi, which is popular in Hawaii and essentially comprises of rice and spam with seaweed on the outside. It looks like this.
 Anyway, it totally reminds me of the food that anime characters eat, and it looks like it would totally fit so well inside my little bento box! Then once I learn to ride my bike with no handle bars, with no handle bars, with no handle bars (sorry, I actually don't really like the song, although it does get stuck in my head), I could eat my Spam Musubi to keep me energized for my long rides! Yay! Now I must to back to working on presentations since I somehow managed to sign myself up for TWO different journal club presentations for the same week without thinking about it! So now, I suppose I should go actually read the papers and try to pretend that I'll know more than the other people in the class. Blah. | |
