Cheesy Quinoa Bites →
I was at my friend’s place yesterday, and she made these. I don’t usually eat quinoa (even though I know it’s good for me), but my mind has changed after snacking on these. I have yet to make these myself…very yummy! :)

My Running Progress So Far
I’ve just completed Week 6 Day 2 of my Couch to 5K program. Basically, I walk for 5 minutes, jog for 10 minutes, walk for 3 minutes, jog for another 10 minutes, then walk for 5 minutes to cool down. I’ve been very happy with the running, in that I keep pushing myself, even though there are times I want to quit.
I finally got a chance to run outside this morning because it’s...

Passed!
I went early this morning to my local DriveTest to get a new G1 licence. I’ve been studying the handbook for awhile, plus I did some practice tests online, so I knew I was going to be okay.

I have a G1 licence (learner’s permit) that will expire this Friday, so I’m studying my driver’s handbook in order to pass the written test that I need to get a new G1. If I pass, it will be my third one.
I’m 32 and I don’t have a driver’s licence. Sounds pathetic, I know, but I’m so anxious to start driving a car. I have passed the written tests, so...

From iPhone to Android
After almost 4 years and 2 iPhones, I received my new Samsung Galaxy Nexus today. It’s a pretty cool phone, slightly larger in size than the iPhone 4, but at the same time lighter in mass.
Now since I’ve been using Apple products for awhile, it was somewhat difficult syncing music, contacts and other information to my Galaxy Nexus. I had to install a software on MacBook to aid in the...
