Hello! It’s a beautiful and sunny day in Santa Barbara and my day so far has been so nice. As usual, I woke up pretty early at 6:30 a.m. I like being a morning person for the most part, but sometimes I wish I could just sleep in a bit. Good thing I love naps ;).
I was starving today but didn’t have many options for breakfast left. I ended up having half a bagel with cream cheese and some See’s Candy (super balanced, I know). Since I turn into a hangry monster, Kyle and I decided to grab an early lunch at 11. We decided to get Vietnamese food since we are creatures of habit and walk the 25 minutes there since it’s so nice out.
Kyle got a beef dish and I got my usual fried rice with pork, beef, shrimp, and pineapple. The give you a copious amount of food, which is obviously just a challenge. Pshh, 5 lbs of rice? No problem. (Okay, Kyle helped… a lot). Like always, it was delicious and went perfectly with a Thai Iced Tea. I swear it’s impossible to not guzzle that sweet thang down in one gulp. It takes some serious willpower!
It was nice to stretch out our legs. Yesterday’s lifting workout really kicked my ass and I’m a bundle of sore. A hot shower will definitely help, along with some yoga that I’m planning on doing later! If I’m in the mood, I’m also going to try to go for a short run when the weather cools down.
Other than that, my day is just going to involve writing a French essay, Chemistry homework, and going to my friend’s acapella concert, which should be fun!
I hope you’re having a brilliant day!
xoxo Christine
