Easy 3 miles cos they were run on the elliptical.

Training: 3 miles
Training: Strength + Stretching
Notes:
The 1/2 marathon training begins with some stretching and strength (resistance training). So, I did some resistance training with 7lbs weights… 2 sets of about 10 reps each. Easy! *wink*
I lost my voice.
After intense cheering, jeering, and chanting last night I have officially lost my voice and am now speaking with a pitch that I have never used before… il tenore! Anyway, the Chelsea FC-fun week is over. I return to work on Monday with hardly a voice, sunburn and wonderful memories that will last me… until the new Premiership term begins anyway! ^_^
Come on the Chels!
p.s., Photos to follow soon. I took LOADS of them and will be putting it up in my gallery.
HPDH and the Chels!
Got it last night. Haven't read past a few sentences. I think I'm going to wait for my "English" version to arrive before I really get into it — that and I'm preoccupado with my Super Chelsea FC.
Speaking of which — I've pretty much had a fantastic Blues week. A match on Tuesday evening, watching the Chels practise @ UCLA on Thursday afternoon, a 7-a-side footy match between the supporters on Friday afternoon, a "meet-and-greet" with Chelsea's Frank Leboeuf — yes, of the French national (World-Cup-winning) team of 1998.
In-between, the parents arrived via Schipol, Holland and as posted a few paragraphs up, picked up my HP book last night @ the Marina del Rey Barnes and Noble…
G2G — more Chels in like, 2 hours! ^_^
HP redux
Saw Harry Potter again today with Andreas and Herman; second time round was just as pleasant. It was neat cos I was able to catch any dialogue missed due to those noises “premiere” audiences made…
Anyway, I will most likely see this film again and the 3rd time seeing it will probably be for “critiquing purposes” — heh according to my li'l brudder anyway.
Oh… I got to see Herman's iPhone and demo'd it…. Darn u Herman and your bloody (wonderful) mobile!! ^_^
p.s. took me 10 mins to enter this via my NDS browser >_<
Spoons.
Just got back from the cinema — yep, it's about 3AM Pacific. Yes, I went to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (aka Harry Potter 5) with four fabulous gals and one anonymous li'l brudder.
The film was GREAT. I can't wait to see it again (on Friday… right Herman?)
We were (only) in the queue for three and a half hours? Probably less. Anyway, we hardly got bored cos for the first part of waiting, we played "name that tune" with my mobile whilst Maybeth looked up Harry Potter trivia questions on her Blackberry. When Sheryl's friend, Christine, arrived, we played spoons — lol and this is where the fun began. Sadly, we were only able to play four rounds of it before we were ushered into the cinema.
Anyway, more about this tomorroz! Kudos and cheers to Sheryl for planning this adventure! ^_^
HP: OOP film!
Going to the cinemas tonight with Sheryl, Maybeth, Jo Nisha, and li'l brudder for a midnight viewing of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. YAY!
Today, next week, I'll be watching my beloved Blues (Chelsea Football Club) play at the Home Depot Center! But before that, I have to pick up my parents from LAX. Wheeee. That's going to be a busy day.
Summer breeze.
After days of record temperature (to me anyway), some cool and light breezes are making their way to my room. Soooo happy. It feels like autumn.
Oh yah, belated happy 4th of July!
On an unrelated note, the parental units (e.g., mum and dad) are arriving in 2 weeks and… my room is still a mess! LOL. On the same day that they arrive, my sis and I are going to watch the Blues (aka Chelsea FC) play against Korea's Bluewings. It should be a nice hectic day. Actually, it should be a nice hectic week!
Herman — Harry Potter on the 11th. I'm watching it on Tuesday the 10th at midnight @ the Rolling Hills cinemas. LMK if you wanna come (going with 3 other gals). I promise I won't embarrass you and dress up like Cho Chang in Quidditch attire. lolz.
