Cooking journey: After the sinigang, i made southwest chicken with a black bean sauce and pico di gallo, then i made my mom's famous Lou's chicken, after that i made fried banana spring rolls (yummy), and yesterday, i made tomatillo chicken stew. Whhhew, this resolution has been a journey, but is probably the best resolution i have ever made.
Last year my resolution was to put my shopping cart back where i got it. Too easy.
So what have i been up to... Last weekend i made a trip out to LA for my good friend Bonnie's 23rd birthday. We got a suite at the Westin and we went to this place called j-lounge. Super nice and very Hollywood. That Sunday i went night snowboarding. I used my new snowboard for the first time and broke down crying on the ski lift feeling like a failure for being so bad :( snow and tears do not mix.This past weekend I spent time with my classmates. I saw my friend's hair for the first time and I couldn't even recognize her! She has always worn a hijab because there are guys in our class. Therefore, she could never show me her hair. I was introduced to Palestinian culture too. I met her 16 year old cousin who was engaged and her 25 year old sister who already had 4 kids! Having many kids is considered a huge blessing in their religion. She comes from a family of twelve. And i thought Jon and Kate plus eight had it bad.
Anyways, other life news is that I just finished my interview at western U for PA school. I don't find out till march, but if i don't get in I'll be officially heart broken. :( Even though i know i cant do anything about it now, I'm stressing and I'm constantly thinking about it (like now).
Anyways.. pray/wish me luck.
