Vroom vroom

Hiiii guys! My lovely compelled readership of 4 :) The half-marathon was splendidly disastrous haha I felt like a Titanic survivor afterwards!! They wrapped these foil things around everyone, so that's like the blankets ya know, and then they gave us water and these [gross] honey cakes (doesn't that sound so good though?? I was super excited!until I bit into it >.<) aka provisions, and thennn, everyone, or at least >I< felt like I had gone through a traumatizing experience. I was so tired the whole way! I wanted to stop!! Except for the couple kilometers when I was eating a banana that came before km12 I think. :D (most people only got like a 4th but I was able to snatch an entire one ^___^). Ya so..no warmup (I waited too long in line to use the porter potty, aka toi toi here, lol.at least there was toilet paper!) + I am not a morning runner = SLOWWW! Finished in barely under 10min/mi which is rather shameful buttt, I finished yaaay!!!!!!

Today I ate at least 10 mini-plates of pasta from a "career brunch" event, along with at least one of each of these little assorted trays of cookies/chocolate-covered biscuit type thing you know what I'm talking about, where there's either 3 or 4 each and there's form-fitting cubbies for each type. I also talked to representatives from ABinBev (beer company), L'Oreal, ING, and Ernst&Young. They were all nice! It was really nice because I have nothing to lose from this like if I had spilled pasta all over someone then it would have been fine eventually right? I also got a free coffee mug which you can write on with chalk (orange chalk included), a tiny vial of perfume, a 5-color hi-lighter, and a bottle opener with a built-in...USB drive! (didn't see that coming, didja) Now can you match each item to the respective company? (It's very easy if you know anything at all about each...)

Also really exciting, I bought olive oil today! And, Melange de France! Which is a mix of herbs! Which means by default there's gotta be a lot of healthy little bits in there right? Yeeeah.

Hm lots of parenthesis in this post. I guess today is just a side-note kinda night. :) In the past few days I have killed 2 blood-filled mosquitos! Bahaha my poor roomie has a bite on her nose! But I think she accidentally left the window open at some point so it's prob her fault? =P She left to spend the night with her mama 2 days ago and that's when I was bitten. T-T Otherwise, she is very good insect repellent! :D (from my point of view at least hehe)

Tonight I biked to swim practice, even though I left my bike at one of my classes, and I borrowed a bike from this redhead on my hall without noticing that she is more than several inches taller than me so it was rather hard but I managed!

What else, please note: making tiramisu does not require use of an oven! I've made it 3 times (or participated in the making of it) and still, I forgot this the other day lol. Okay well that is all, byeee!
