I got an award!
I went winter camping with a scout troop a few weekends ago. Some of the kids slept out in snow shelters to complete their winter survival training. I built my own shelter and slept out with them just to see if I could handle the cold. I’m proud to say that I survived in comfort.
When the kids were awarded their winter camping patches the scoutmaster also awarded me an honorary patch. The best part was my son’s reaction: he had a big smile on his face and clapped hard for me when I accepted the patch.
Passed my microbiology finals just now! Can’t wait to get back home and just chill out.
I released my very first song on Apple Music and the other major music streaming platforms. It’s live on Apple Music rn. I don’t care if it is never found or listened to. It’s just so cool knowing that anyone could listen to it. I’ve another track lined up for release and have music videos for both. This is a dream of mine, and I actually followed through on something!
I’m in the beginning stages of Spring Festival. I’ve had three feasts in five days, plus the immediate family feast (which we could better control the contents of).
I think I’ve gained about 15kg. But in the good way!
What is this delicious-sounding festival of which you speak?
You’d call it Chinese New Year.
There’s a whole lot of food involved. SO MUCH FOOD! 😱
Oh yeah, I would. There’s a big Chinese population in my area, so it’s kind of a big deal. Last year, I made the mistake of trying to buy a lobster when it was coincidentally Chinese New Year. I had the option of these little bitty things or monsters six plus pounds.
I had not known that their red color after being cooked makes them popular during the new year.
I’ve just had bacon, eggs, baked beans, and hash browns for lunch so it’s going pretty well right now.
