Jelly

This morning was a good lesson in weight lifting. T showed me a variety of exercises to target my bicep and tricep muscles. Boy, did I feel the burn!!
My arms are going to feel like jelly tomorrow.. I can already tell :) All throughout my strength training workout, I felt like I had ants in my pants. I was itching to do some cardio so I ran for 30 minutes afterwards.

Lunch:
We stopped at a Korean restaurant for lunch. You'll find this seafood pancake appetizer (Pajun) at most Korean restaurants. When done right, it is slightly crispy on the edges and warm on the inside with shrimp, clams, squid, and green onions.  It comes with a soy sauce dipping sauce. Drool!!

Main dish:  Soon du bu chigae but I forgot to take a picture of it due to my over eagerness! Here is what it looked like:
It's a spicy stew with tofu, seafood (usually clams, shrimp, sometime mussels), and an egg that usually cooks on top because it is SUPER hot! My favorite Korean comfort food.

Dessert:

It's a bank holiday in London this weekend. No work on Monday!!

Fitness First

I'm trekking into the city to go to the gym with T today. He'll be teaching me how to do different exercises for my arms. Take me to the gun show please!!
I thought I'd be a traitor and sport a Fitness First bag- sorry Virgin Active!! Besides, I have too much darn stuff to carry for my usual sporty pink gym bag.
Cute though huh? Must have right accessories for the gym to make the experience more pleasant :)
 1.) Towel
2.) Shoes
3.) Clothes
4.) Make-up
5.) Lotion, etc..

It's another rainy day here in London. T.G.I.F?? Blergh.
