My Saturday lunch

So last Saturday, my bf and I went on a lunch date. We decided to go for Korean, it's been a while since we went to Bonchon. I am not really a fan of Bibimbap, I usually order the one with the shrimp on top of rice and sometimes chicken but this time I tried to spicy chicken Bibimbap and we both ordered Bingsu. I got the chocolate and he got the strawberry cheesecake flavor. For someone who loves and tolerates spicy food, I find the Bibimbap spicy flavor just right. As for the Bingsu, the chocolate flavor is not that sweet which was fine with me while strawberry cheesecake is not that sour. Don't get me wrong, I love strawberries but strawberry flavored foods tend to be on the sour side and I am not a fan of. I am not some foodie but this combo was satisfying.

Loss 1lb

Yeah, I lost 1lb this week! In the past 3 weeks, I've been losing a lb each week and it's getting harder. I decided to eat 2 meals, oatmeal and cereal a day though I stopped after 3 days. I ran a total of 10km and went on one boxing session. I decided to work harder this week and let's see how it goes.

30th birthday Ideas

This is something that I am not really very excited about because I'll be 30. I am old, I feel old, I feel like I have nothing to show for my life. Well, planning a party excites me so I focused on things that make me happy. I was researching on themes and ideas for a 30th bday party and this is what I came up with. It's a little cliche but whatever, it's pink and gold, sparkly and modern, MIMIcentric, flirty 30!!!

It all started 5 years ago...

If my memory serves me right, I started runnning in 2012. I ran with my then boyfriend on a 5km race. I ran for 55 minutes. Today, I ran after being such a loser (I haven't been following my workout schedule, that's why), I ran 5km for 54 minutes. That has never happened before after 2012. I know it's just a minute but the fact that it was so difficult for me to finish 5km in an hour and be able to do it in 54 mins is victory for me.
So, after my break-up with my then boyfriend, running gave me distraction and help me lose weight. Running has a lot of metaphors in life and can really help you get through some tough times. I joined races every 3 months for the next year, I ran 3-4 times a week for 30 minutes. I ate what I want without gaining weight until metabolism hit me hard and I am gaining weight, having difficult with my running until I just ran once or twice a week. In 2016, my boyfriend and I decided to run again. We tried to run for 30 minutes 3-4 times a week but we were not able to. We planned on joining a 10km run before the end of 2016 but again, not able to do it. So in 2017, I made a promise to go back to running. I'll run twice a week. Twice a week, I'll have boxing, once a week, I'll do yoga and once a week, I'll have to work with toning my body. So help me God, in 2017....
