Happy 21st to my cousin Warren! We went out for his birthday after our July 4th BBQ with all the cousins = fun! Let's just say we ended up going to a 24hr IHOP on Northern Blvd (near my old job - Best Buy). That was the highlight of that night! - a 24 hour IHOP!!
Tonight we went to Cabanas on 3rd ave, near Hunter, for his birthday dinner. It was dee-lish-us. I had the CoCo Cabana Vegetales. What can I say, apparently I have high cholesterol (the doc says I should exercise more, p.s. i just ran a marathon, if i exercise anymore i think i just might rip all my hairs out), so I must stick with foods with minimal amounts of cholesterol.

After dinner, trekked on the F train back to the Hills - Forest Hills, that is - and picked up my running gear, which basically only consists of wicking capris, mizunos, and spring underarmor! & headed back to my parents house. My cousin Leslie & I made plans to run at our colorful, hopscotch painted elementary schoolyard tonight & met up at 11:30pm. And guess what did??? We ran with a parachute!!! So basically there is a small parachute attached to a black belt. The belt clasps close with the pitchfork tongs like a fanny pack. The parachute is directly behind you and you SPRINT WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT so the parachute stays in the air. You must run fast in order to keep the parachute from scraping the ground! Also, when your running and the parachute is in the air, there is wind resistance that pulls on your waist, so you must push on even stronger, get it? (I know I'm terrible at describing things at times) It was the most fun I've ever had sprinting! We are going parachute sprinting again Wednesday & I will be videotaping it; so STAY TUNED - it's so cool!
Also, I haven't exactly been on top of my running game lately. Only like twice a week, not horrible but definitely not great. I'm thinking of training for another race; No marathon! but ya know...something. Maybe a 10K for time and definitely the Turkey Trot, but that's not til November - Turkey Day - hence, "turkey" trot.

I'm revamping my wardrobe & will be documenting the building of my currently nonexistent style [clothing wise]. I know exactly what style I like and how I want to dress, but I never seem to be able to execute it. Any of you feel that way?? Anyway, once Victor picks up a tripod for me like he said he will, (thanks!) the documentation will commence! (Eek! exciting!)
Sorry there's no picture in this post; I will make it up with a parachute video & the chronicles of my hopeful & evolving attire. wish me luck!

I would love to see your wardrobes/outfits :) I myself need to do some revamping, but its such a...tedious process and the fact that I'm jobless doesnt help either lol
I got news for young lady, if your whole "revamping your wardrobe documentation" depends on that handsome Victor guy ever picking up your tripod than i'm sorry to say, You are so screwed, hahaha (evil laugh) >=] j.k
