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.

So say we all

Finally finished watching BSG and I'm sad, sad because I finally found a good sci fi show to watch (i loved DS9, voyager and all those older trek shows, babylon5, firefly, etc) and now i have nothing. I have high hopes for the live action star wars show, really high hopes tbh. I'm also looking forward to the next trek movie, which looks insanely awesome btw.

Anyways, recap on the week: finished my interview w/ the CEO on monday and it went really well. I was able to express my ideas that would work very well w/ their company, maybe too well because he actually wrote them down so if I don't get hired, they may use them, oh the irony. The weirdest thing was him asking if i was smart: umm sure i said, why would i say no haha. He then asked me a trivia question about 3 switches and 3 lightbulbs (u have to figure out which switch belongs to which bulb without going into the light room more than once.) I actually knew the answer as soon as he asked it but i had to play dumb. Well he was impressed and then proceeded to ask me a math question. It was easy, come on, I went up to calculus lol. I should be getting a call back soon so hopefully it looks good for me, otherwise I might have to move back home for a while.

WOW update, 2 pieces away from all purples. Probably my one most desirable goal is to be fully epicced out in all tier gier. Should be soon the way I'm raiding haha. I spend way too much time on the game but I know I wont ever have this opportunity again once I start working so might as well take advantage right?
