It’s summer time and I made zero plans to accomplish anything. So that’s what I’m going to do now. Let’s brainstorm. What’s that? Oh right. That’s not how a blog post works. Sorry, it’s been a while.
Here’s what I’m thinking in terms of goals:
-
Learn to cook -In the 6 and a half years that Pho An Vietnamese Cuisine has been open, I’ve worked as a server the entire time, and never actually learned how to cook. I’ve been told that girls love Jamie Oliver, and it’s clearly not because of his face. In an attempt to gain some skills to woo the ladies, I’ve asked to work full time in the kitchen. So far training is going well. It’s hot as hell, fast paced, and intense, but time flies like it ain’t no thang.
-
Gain some weight- As everyone knows, I’m a skinny kid. Soaking wet, and holding a large duck, I’m probably weighing in at a modest 140. Why am I holding a duck? Screw you, that’s why. I hope to gain 30 pounds by the end of the summer. I see you laughing at that ridiculousness. Why 30 lbs? Two reasons: a)I feel that George St Pierre is unchallenged as welterweight champion and I think I have what it takes to dethrone him. b) Even though I say 30 lbs, I’ll probably only gain 10 max. I have the metabolism of a hummingbird. I am also the most unhealthy eater. The other week, all I ate in a day was nachos, an old piece of cake in the freezer, 25 New England mussels, and cheese. It didn’t turn out well. Let’s just say I got the anus equivalent of verbal diarrhea. I don’t work out that often either. I’d say that I work once a blue moon, but I don’t know how long that is, but I’m pretty sure it’s more than that much time.
-
Spend more times with my friends-This school year has been crazy. I’ve barely seen anyone as I was reduced to being a shut-in several times in the year. So this summer, you name it, I’m down. Let’s go camping. Let’s watch shitty movies. Let’s go do karaoke. BBQs, biking, beers, beets, Battlestar Galacta. Do not hesitate to call/ text me to hang out. Let’s have an awesome summer.
