Future Marathons

Friend of mine Vincent, just ran the Rochester Marathon early September and completed the full marathon within 3 hours. Which was really good for him as first time! Rach, Alex and I was able to go and cheer on him from the beginning and try to catch him at the end.

Now after see all those runners running half and full marathon made me feel out of shape and gave me inspire to wanting to try out for half marathon which is 13.1 miles. I wouldn't mind try out and be able to accomplish that in my lifetime and check that off my bucket list! Vincent said it's not hard to train for and said can train with him since he planning to run another marathon. What a nut!!! haha

Here is few pictures from the marathon (from my camera and website)

 

Ski Expo

Vincent and I went to Ski/Board Expo here in Rochester, they had huge sales on skis, snowboards, poles, boots, coats, snow-pants, and helmets. I was pretty much drooling over for new skis! However, i called my aunt the night before to figure out if worth for me to grab the opportunity due to sales. She did made a good point, that I need to start figure out which Skis I really like since I kept on changing different kids of skis. I know for sure I like K2, Salmon or Volvo so far. Would like one that accommodation for telemark and downhill skiing. Will be testing those out on the down at my home mountain at Copper Mountain, Colorado!- Super excited!!!

Those are my top 2 favorite skis that I really liked!

                 

We'll see what I will end up with this Christmas!

Go Big Red!

GO BIG RED!!

Was able to cheer for the Huskers Football all the way here in New York with my New York friends! Alex, who grew up in Nebraska with me hosted the party, was thank him for that since I do not have Big Ten Network Channel. It was grateful that was able to get together and watch the game and WE WON which totally made my night. Even our friends aren't Husker fan but we about to inject Husker blood into them, they are about to get it into their roots by wearing our Husker t'shirt and cheer with us!! That night was LOT of fun, am telling you!! :)

Hiking Letchworth

Hiking Letchworth State Park was LOT of fun this time! Vincent and I joined a Outgoing Club at RIT. They set up outdoor events on weekends or weekdays and join them whenever we can. It's pretty neat way to get out and meet new people. That day we hiked for at least 4-5 hours around the entire park along with beautiful weather! We both enjoyed our time there.

Enjoy the pictures from the hike!

Back in Rochy...

(Plane back to ROC from ORD)

Here I am back in Rochester... it was pretty insane when I landed.

I had to go direct to get my car from a good friend of mine who took care of it whole time while was in Nebraska. After that got gas then head to get my fingerprinting done for an intern at DePaul, which wasn't successful after the 3th trip i made there!

Arrived home found out am roommate with 4 guys, who are RIT students and hearing, esp for one who is hard of hearing. I had a little concern at first but after awhile i met them it wasn't too bad, just hope they will clean up after themselves! haha

Class and intern had begin, am just taking one class at the Metro and intern class biweekly at the main campus in Brockport. However, not got position for intern yet- which has been driving me crazy but I had to trust God that I will get one at Strong where I want to be at instead of DePual. We see how that goes, once it comes! Pray for Strong please- :)

Otherwise, it's nothing new to be back just wish had more time back in Nebraska. I got to Thank my gig buds and other friends to make me feel comfortable here once again!

Thank the Lord for a safe trip back and wonderful time back home in Nebraska, KC and Iowa. <><

Hurricane Irene

On Sunday Aug 29, 2011 was able to experience hurricane weather for the first time in my life!

It was neat experience but at the same time little scary! Was at a surprise engagement party up at Ontario Lake about 24 minute East of Rochester for Alex and Rach. We were having the party in a shed at the park up there. It was fun since it was SO WINDY up to about 35 mph wind (half of what is at the bull eye). The waves were very high than normal. We played volleyball, swing, watched the waves, and drooling to go surfing with double headers! The party it self was successful and FUN in the hurricane Irene. 

I've attached some video and picture from that day- click on the picture below and enjoy!
