iChef Journal [10.19.2001 Friday] I turned 22 today. It's kind of weird being 22. I remember being 16 for so long, and now I'm in my 20's. Today was pretty fun though. Steph, Mike and Matt threw a "surprise" party for me and Vince Wong (we share the same birthdate). I got some pretty cool stuff: an Oakland A's construction cap from Matt, Steph, and Mike, and also some Black Panther ball bearings (for my skateboard) from Dave. It was nice to be appreciated. On another note, I've noticed that I don't really take long showers anymore. I used to take long showers: 15 -30 minutes, but now, my showers end being around 5 minutes. I don't really understand why I don't enjoy sitting in the nice hot water. After I shampoo, soap and rinse, I just jump out. One theory is that it our apartment (in San Diego) is never really cold, so I'm not really enticed to stay in the warm water for a long time. Back at home, I'd take these really long showers in the winter time because it was so cold. It also could be that I haven't been exercising as much as I used to. In high school I had track / cross-country / soccer practice and the past 4 years I've had ultimate frisbee practice. Showers feel really good when you're sore and tired, and I really haven't felt that for a while. Maybe that's it. I don't know, just something I noticed. ___________________________________________ | previous | journal (i need a good name) | next |
