Trippin': Sydney - Moo Burger

My baby sistar took us to eat at one of her favorite gourmet burger places by her school in sydney. Moo Burger. I love gourmet burgers. And this place was pretty good but i honestly can't remember much. I do remember not having a lot of money but deciding that i really had to have that mango smoothie. Haha. Don't ever put me in charge of the finances. It was a pretty satisfying meal. Prolly on the better end compared to some of the bleh stuff we had so far. I don't think i could have ever done what the baby sistar did by deciding to take classes abroad. Most people wouldn't do it unless they also knew people who were doing it but she jumped into it all on her own. I sometimes like to classify myself as an independent because i don't rely on others to do things or make decisions but she definitely has me beat! I'm proud that she has that characteristic. She's an adventurer and like my mom, i wholeheartedly support it. If it weren't for her i may never have visited all the cities that i have these last two years. Big poppa needs to be pushed at times to travel and to take the time to enjoy life. He can be quite serious about his work and he has good reason to be. One of us has to be the level headed one and that's not me!

Wedding: Phi & Jackie

Another JV wedding. And oh boy do these guys go crazy. I almost feel bad cos they pretty much hijack the wedding. You can't hear or follow anything else that's going on. Luckily i think the bride is pretty cool and wasn't bothered by the guys shenanigans. And i know many of them don't see each other all that much so it's pretty much a big reunion for them. The bride had a beautiful gown. Very princessy. And i actually really liked the suits the groom and his men wore. Looking at that one pic where the bridesmaid has a tattoo just really helped me decide that i need to get rid of my own tat. It just doesn't look right anymore. I'm not a wannabe gangsta anymore! Just wish i had some stupid dragon or something instead of my last name so i wouldn't have to miss it.

Musik Mundi: Phosphorescent

Phosphorescent
Album: Muchacho (2013)
Song: Song for Zula

Not a whole lot going on right now but at the same time it's mentally too much to handle. Lots of friends having babies this year ... more diapers and wipes i gotta buy! Trying to get back into a fitness routine ... middle sistar decided to do the tour de houston bike ride this weekend. She completed 70 miles with absolutely zero amount of training. She had clip on pedals and wore regular tennis shoes. Pretty crazy. She could go far with some training! Pretty amazing feat. This is one of four songs that i have playing on repeat. Dancing outside under a string of lights. Can you see it?!? Just don't think about the lyrics.

Event: USA Fit Half Marathon

Congrats to big poppa for completing his very FIRST half-marathon! I'm so proud of him! I could never do this. Run and run and run. He was all runner-geared out. Tight shirt. Tight pants. Knee thingies. It sucks having to wake up so early. It was awesome that he had people running it with him. Kudos to vinnie for running back to back halfs. And major props to jacques for completing it while ill with barely any training! Geez! I can barely run three miles on a good day even if i had been training for a whole year. I hate running. So hard. Since the marathon though he's barely continued with the running. I feel bad. It's not my fault but i haven't been pushing him to do it either. He was so happy his belly went down and now it's slowly coming back. At least it's coming back SLOWLY. Haha. Their finisher shirt and medals are prolly the ugliest shirts and medals i've ever seen. YUCK! I made this big picture thing of big poppa's face to use a cheering sign. People loved it! I was gonna surprise him with it at first but i was running out of time and it was just easier to let him see it. Of course then he was all being picky and complaining about the picture i chose. So vain this boy is.
