4 Weddings (1 down), 3 trips (1 down)and my journey to the perfect job still continues.
Games:
Took a break from wow, been playing my xbox more: street fighter, ghost busters and will start playing COD4 again for practice when Modern Warfare2 hits. With all that playing tho, my xbox red ringed and eventually died on me. What sucks more is that its past the 3 year extended warranty and would cost 100 to fix so what did I do? bought a new one =( haha. Figure i could do it with the money i got from texas.
Dancing:
Flo-master kicked my ass but it was awesome. The dance is making more sense to me each day and hearing what he had to say made it that much easier. I got his number too so whenever I go home, I will definitely call him up.
Everything else:
Lyn and I survived 5 years together. wee.
ugh im too tired to write anything else, will continue another time

New dish
I call it Mike's Tuna surprise. The surprise part is you cant tell that there's tuna.
Ingredients:
1 small can of tuna, squeeze out the water.
1 egg.
1 slice reduced fat swiss cheese.
onion (red is preferred)
pepper
olive oil.
I used to just heat up the tuna w/ pepper in some olive oil and eat that with rice. If I wanted to go fancy I'd add some mayo. This version is healthy and you get way more vitamins. Tuna itself is already 20g protein, add the egg and cheese and you're good to go.
Simple dish, cook some onion with the oil, then add tuna w/ pepper. After it gets a little brown, add the egg, scrambled first. Once the egg's cooked and mixed in, add some cheese. Cook till desired and there you go. Serve with rice, brown rice obviously.

Back to being fit
A couple of weeks ago I weighed myself in and was pretty sad to find that I've gained roughly 15 1bs from the past year after I had first lost all that weight. Of course, it didn't really look it since Ive still been hitting the gym 3x a week and dancing on the weekend, but still, not a good sight to see.
Sooo, being summer coming up I decided to go back to my original diet - eat 5x a day, no junk except for 1 day and eat tons of veggies, whole grains, almonds and fruit. Started running again on my off days and yes, I started to see results again. But just not as fast as before.
So this week I had extreme goals that worked w/ each other.
1- I need to get extremely good at dancing, to the point where its undeniable that I should be advancing forward in battles.
2 - Lose weight faster than 1 1b a week.
So what did I do? Danced more. I dance every single day now but not just drilling some moves, I'm working on everything to the point of exhaustion and I see sweat dripping down my face. Otherwise there's no point, I'm not working hard enough and the results show: This week alone I've lost about 4 lbs already and its only thursday. Conclusion, no more stupid running, just dance hard.

Having fun on interviews
Had another interview today and was asked "whats you're favorite movie?"
No i didn't apply to blockbuster, the hiring manager and i just got along pretty well so questions were pretty casual and he just wanted to know me.
Anyways, I wasn't thrown off on the question, I immediately said "Star Wars," he responded "a new hope?" I nodded yes, and then he asked Why? I said "because its awesome." Then he was kinda suprised and said 'wow, you said that with no hesitation' hahahahaha! needless to say, he was impressed and I wouldn't change what I said.
