I recently bought a crockpot for $30 CDN at Walmart, and it has been a Godsend for making meals during the week. This recipe is from <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Slow-Cooker-Cilantro-Lime-Chicken/Detail.aspx?evt19=1" target="_blank">Allrecipes</a>, the original recipe called for Cilantro, but I didn't have that on hand. </div>

<br />
I was in Halifax, Nova Scotia for an academic conference. Its my first time in the Maritimes, and really the first time outside of Ontario (except for Montreal, Quebec, but thats so close to Ontario it almost doesn't count). For the most part I did travel alone, and although I had some reservations about this I actually really enjoyed it! I travelled at my own pace and did the things I wanted to do without obligation to stick to someone's schedule.<br />
<br />
I was staying at an Airbnb by the downtown Halifax harbourfront and its beautiful here. The owner is an architect and has fantastic taste in home decor as I've slowly been taking my own little notes here and there for ideas on my own place.<br />
<br />
My host gave me a quick tour of Halifax after picking me up from the airport, we drove through Darmouth, which he dubbed "the Dark Side" and he said its much like the "Scarborough" of Toronto. This area is not as affluent as downtown Halifax and tends to be considered a bit more sketchy by the locals. We crossed the McDonald toll bridge (lo and behold, a toll bridge).<br />
<br />
Here are my photos from the trip:<br />

While browsing Pinterest I came across a <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/256986722462368335/">DIY Minion Tutorial</a> that I really liked. So I decided, since I've been piecing together some past cosplays, why not make my own Halloween costume?<br />

<b>Option 2: GET THE LOGO CUSTOM PRINTED: </b>Get it printed a custom t-shirt store. I found a really decently priced place in Toronto (Baked Tees) that can do it same day. I decided to go with a custom logo print since I plan on using this shirt in the future (cons? halloween parties?).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.blogto.com/toronto/the_best_custom_t-shirts_in_toronto/" target="_blank">In Toronto, there are several custom t-shirt stores</a> that are good, affordable options.<br />
<br />
Ensure you go in with resolution: 300 dpi, I saved the file on a USB and set the image settings to 10 inches by 10 inches. Here are my photoshop settings:<br />

I always thought happiness was a destination, that once reached life would be immediately better. That perhaps after reaching a goal ______[weight, making a certain amount of money, finishing school, buying that new tech piece, clothing item, vacation] that would be it, I would have finally <i>achieved</i> happiness, life would be perfect and smooth sailing. How I ever came to that conclusion, I don't know. No one has ever explicitly explained it to me.<br />
<br />
In the past, during those pursuits of said goals ______ [weight, getting a job, finishing school, buying that new tech piece, clothing item, vacation] I focused SOLELY on just reaching that destination at whatever mental, physical, spiritual cost that came along. Once I achieved that goal, guess what? I felt EXACTLY the same as I did as before. The only thing I really felt was surprised, unfulfilled, and all I could think of to myself was "is that it? thats what I worked for? And I don't feel any different.. any happier?"<br />
<br />
<b>What happiness is not: </b><br />
<ul>
<li><b><i>It isn't about the acquisition of material possessions or monetary wealth </i></b>(as media and businesses would have you believe).<br /><br />One pervasive example of the effect of money on happiness - lottery winners have an elevated level of happiness that lasts about two weeks before that level goes back to what it was before they ever won the money. Although that amount of money makes life considerably easier in terms of living expenses, they are still the same people, with the issues and self-limiting beliefs. <a name='more'></a><br /><br />I know that when I indulge on a "want" after a rather expensive shopping trip, I do get a superficial, temporary feeling of happiness that lists up until the novelty of having it wears off. Then I'm back to baseline, and perhaps wondering what I need to acquire next to feel better (what gadget? what brand name clothing).</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<ul>
<li><b><i>Happiness is not the pursuit of "pleasure" </i></b>- Pleasurable activities are not necessarily productive activities that help us improve or be better people. They usually compromise of things that make us feel "good" in the moment, which can be things as innocent as getting a day at the spa, watching a funny movie, or more self-destructive behaviours that involve overindulging on food, drugs, promiscuity, gambling. Happiness in this case is extrinsic and dependent on the next time you can obtain or experience said 'pleasure'. Often these 'pleasures' are also not true sources of happiness, but rather quick fixes and means of distracting us from problems we work so hard to avoid and face (feelings of inadequacy, worthlessness, hopelessness and despair).</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><b><i>Happiness is not keeping up with the Joneses.</i></b> Comparing ourselves to our neighbours, peers, friends, prominent figures in the media. It's easy for anyone to hide their struggles, and often we only see those perfect Instagram photos, or experiences on our newsfeed about amazing travels and experiences that others have had. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
<b>What happiness is:</b><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><b><i>The pursuit of different goals and activities</i></b> that are aligned with our ideal selves and values. If we think about whats important to us - family, generosity, charity, compassion, justice, creative expression, faith, adventurousness, self care (emotional, physical/fitness, spirituality), temperance, and strength and the moments in our lives when felt those values expressed - its often in the context of a creative pursuits (dance, art, music, classes, writing, photography, etc.), a difficult challenge we had to endure, a shared experience with a loved one. <br /><br />Activities that reinforce these values are activities that help us self-actualize - to live out our values, and improve upon and challenge ourselves. <br /><br />For me personally, I work in the medical field. I help people and that fulfills me in many ways: it helps me build compassion, cultivate patience, and also helps me build generosity with my time, energy and attention I give to the people I try to help. However, I have found that there isn't much room for creativity and freedom of expression - understandably as I'm about helping others, not myself in that position. <br /><br />Something I've found immensely cathartic is pursuit of creative endeavors - more recently dance, art, graphic/web design, baking, photography. Anything where I'm curating and creating I feel challenged, joy, proud, and that I'm growing in many different areas - even if I'm not particularly good or get frustrated at the pace at which I'm progressing (I'm a beginner for the majority, if not all of those creative endeavors).</li>
<li><b><i>Indulging in experiences and building meaningful relationships, not the acquisition of things: </i></b>The moments that have had me consistently happy are experiences and heart to heart conversations I've had with good friends, and the memories from those experiences sustain me when times do get tough. </li>
</ul>

I've been working on a Despicable Me Minion Costume and decided to DIY this year instead of purchasing a costume (partly inspired by DIY cosplays for conventions I've started to attend this year). I was inspired by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9slzmz6n64" target="_blank">Bethany Mota's Minion Tutorial on Youtube</a> and decided to try my hand at it.</div>
<div style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div style="clear: both;">
I'll be blogging shortly about the outfit I'm putting together for the costume. </div>
<h2 style="clear: both;">
Materials</h2>
<div style="font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">
<b><u>Minion Goggles</u></b></div>
<ul style="font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">
<li><b>PVC Piping</b> Ends 2 or 3 inches in diameter (95 cents each at Home Depot)</li>
<li><b>Silver/Glitter Spray Paint </b>($12.95 at Home Depot). <i>I chose one specifically for crafts</i></li>
<li><b>6 small nuts (</b>from my dad, can get them from Home Depot)</li>
<li><b>Glue Gun</b> ($3 from the Dollar Store) with Glue Gun Fillers ($1.50 from Dollar Store)</li>

<h2>
Macarons</h2>
<div>
<div>
<div>
<b><u>INGREDIENTS</u></b></div>
<div>
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div>
<b><u>Basic Macaron Ingredients </u></b><br />
<ul>
<li>115 g of almond flour </li>
<li>230 g of icing sugar </li>
<li>72 g of sugar </li>
<li>144g of egg whites </li>
<li>2 tsp vanilla extract </li>
<li>1/2 tsp salt </li>
</ul>
<br />
<b><u>Spice Flavouring/Colour </u></b><br />
<ul>
<li>1 drop golden yellow or Orange Food Colouring </li>
<li>1/2 teaspoon cinnamon </li>
<li>1/2 teaspoon ground allspice </li>
</ul>
<div>
<b><u>DIRECTIONS:</u></b></div>
</div>
<ol>
<li>Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. </li>
<li>Measure out almond flour, icing sugar. Put in food processor, and pulse on high until while ground (~15 times). Sift TWICE into bowl that you will set aside.</li>
<li>Mix egg whites, sugar using an hand/standing electric mixer with a whisk attachment - and time yourself for this next part: 3 minutes on low speed, 3 minutes on medium, then 3 minutes on high. </li>
<li>Now, add the salt, vanilla extract, food colouring, cinnamon, and allspice, and bump the speed up to maximum for 1 minute (time yourself!). </li>
<li>Your meringue should be very stiff. It should NOT be runny, and should clump in the middle of the whisk. If it doesn't, beat for another minute or keep beating until it clumps in the middle of the whisk.</li>
<li>Now add the almond flour/icing sugar mixture, and using a spatula FOLD the ingredients, which should take approximately 25 "folds" turns. </li>
<li>Pipe 1 inch onto baking sheet. Then bang the baking tray hard against the counter surface to dislodge air bubbles. Do this two more times. </li>
<li>Bake for 18 minutes, turn the baking sheet around after 9 minutes. </li>
<li>Remove from oven. Allow to cool completely - and be patient! Gently slide them off the parchment paper. If they are still sticking, put in freezer for 1 minute.</li>
</ol>
<h2>
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Buttercream </h2>
</div>
<div>
<b><u>INGREDIENTS:</u></b><br />
<ul>
<li>3 tbsp canned Pumpkin Puree </li>
<li>1/2 package cream cheese, room temperature</li>
<li>1/2 cup (1 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature</li>
<li>1/4 tsp vanilla extract</li>
<li>3 cups icing sugar, sifted</li>
</ul>
<div>
<b><u>DIRECTIONS</u></b></div>
<div>
<ul></ul>
<div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<ol>
<li>Beat butter and pumpkin puree together until smooth (20 seconds).</li>
<li>Add cream cheese & vanilla</li>
<li>Add icing sugar gradually and beat until well combined</li>
</ol>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>This was my third attempt at macarons. </b>Needless to say there are some things I learned this time around:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><b>Allow Macarons to Cool: </b>Allow macarons to cool <i>completely </i>before attempting to take them off. I just let them cool for 20-30 minutes. When I became impatient, I ended up tearing some of the macarons before they were ready to be taken off. </li>
<li><b>Over-mixing: </b>I think I may be over-mixing the batter, instead of folding almond flour/icing sugar into egg white mixture 25 times (an arbitrary number) I think I'll do it until it is absorbed in the fewest strokes possible. </li>
<li><b>Importance of sifting:</b> My sifter broke on me at <a href="http://www.sparrow.nu/2014/10/chocolate-french-macarons.html" target="_blank">my last attempt</a>, and the macarons were a bit lumpy. This time I sifted three times - and food processed any left over bits to ensure they were well grounded! The macarons held well together. </li>
<li><b>Banging the tray against the counter: </b>Sounds strange, but once I piped the macarons on the counter, I banged the tray against the kitchen counter 2-3 times to get the air bubbles out. Result? The macarons didn't crack after baking! It was a great tip I read on <a href="http://bravetart.com/recipes/Macarons" target="_blank">Bravetart</a>. </li>
<li><b>More reading/research:</b> I need to read up more on technique to see where I can improve upon. </li>
</ul>
<b>These baked goods are super stubborn to get right, but luckily, so am I! </b><br />
<ul>
</ul>

<h2>
Ingredients</h2>
<ul>
<li>1 can (15 ounces, 1 3/4 cup) canned pumpkin puree</li>
<li>1 can (14 ounces, 414 mL) Sweet Condensed Milk</li>
<li>2 large eggs</li>
<li>3/4 tsp ground cinnamon</li>
<li>1/2 tsp vanilla</li>
<li>1/2 tsp ground nutmeg</li>
<li>1/2 tsp ground cloves</li>
<li>1 unbaked pie crust - <i>I used a frozen deep pie crust, which required thawing for 15 minutes before pouring contents into pie dish.</i></li>
</ul>
<h2>
Directions</h2>
<div>
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. </div>
<div>
<ol>
<li>Heat canned pumpkin puree, spices and salt over low heat for 8-10 minutes. Stir frequently. Heating the puree removes the "canny" taste.</li>
<li>Remove mixture from heat and pour into bowl. Add condensed milk, vanilla and eggs. Whisk together until well combined. </li>
<li>Pour pumpkin filling mixture into crust. </li>
<li>Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.</li>
<li>Reduce oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 35-45 minutes until cake taster comes out clean. </li>
<li>To prevent cracking of crust, allow the pie to cool gradually in the oven. </li>
</ol>

<b>"You can learn new things at any time in your life if you're willing to be a beginner. </b><br />
<b>If you actually learn to like being a beginner, the whole world opens up to you." -Barbara Sher</b></div>
<br />
I've been dancing salsa pretty regularly for the past year (actually, just over a year) and I've built some confidence in my skills and abilities. I can follow pretty well and dance in a social setting.<br />
<br />
The idea of feeling bad at something is very uncomfortable for me. I like the idea of being competent and decently skilled at any particular activity. So as someone that has finished school, and have been doing a very familiar set of hobbies/activities for a long time, I haven't had that feeling of "being a beginner" for a while.<br />
<br />
Anytime you learn a new skill - riding a bike, playing a new sport, playing a new instrument - its inevitable, you're going to suck at it - like be really really embarrassingly bad. "Sucking", at least initially, is a necessary step to eventual mastery of a skill. Embracing this attitude humbles us, and forces us to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. And that if we continue working persistently at it with deliberate practice, we can get a level where we don't suck as much - we might even become good, or great at what we do.<br />
<br />
For me the activity I "suck at" is urban dance. I've attempted hip hop before, bad at it. I decided to take up breakdancing after trying out one class and really enjoying the class, teacher, and moves we were learning (top rock, down rock and freezes - beginner class doesn't cover power moves like windmills).<br />
<br />

<br />
If someone shows me a set of choreography, I'm relatively okay at replicating it. For the first few classes we did a "monkey see monkey do" routine. The instructor showed us some moves and we copied it. Very straight forward, very non-threatening and comfortable.<br />
<br />
What REALLY pushed me outside of my comfort zone was when we tried applying what we learned in freestyle. Our instructor introduced us to breakdancing "cyphers" aka a dance circle. We play the bboy music and take turns trying out different moves we learned together. All of us are beginners (albeit 1 or 2 I'm PRETTY sure had bboyed before) but we encouraged each other, cheering or saying "good job good job" if one of us messed up. When it was my turn, I went into the circle and did my thing, and I was HORRIBLE at it. I felt eembarrassed self-conscious... all really unfamiliar, uncomfortable feelings. However in spite of this, I was absolutely delighted and excited - for the first time (in a long time) I felt challenged. I went home thinking about how much practice I needed before I would enter the dance circle again.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
My mind was just teeming with possibilities, all the things I could learn. I didn't really care that I probably looked really bad at it, I was genuinely enjoying myself. I left each class feeling I had learned so much, and I was just eager to learn and practice more. It helped that my classmates were super friendly and teacher was very open and helped us learn at a relatively quick pace.<br />
<br />
What I also really enjoyed about the class was how athletic breakdancing actually is. It requires a lot of core strength, flexibility and balance. Someone referred to it as the "martial arts" of urban dance. I can see why - some moves that our instructor demo'ed were gravity defying.<br />

There are different variations of Poutine, including a pulled pork, "Canadian Bacon" and "loaded Nacho-like" versions of Poutine. I decided to make this recipe when my younger brother had asked for healthy poutine. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I had previously made poutine using low-sodium McCain fries. Upon telling my coworkers they convinced me to try making my own fries and so I did :)</div>

This recipe adapted from <a href="http://bravetart.com/recipes/Macarons" target="_blank">Delicious Everyday</a>, <a href="http://www.eatlivetravelwrite.com/2011/04/how-to-make-macarons-whats-working-for-me-right-now/" target="_blank">Eat Live Travel Write</a> and Stella from <a href="http://bravetart.com/recipes/Macarons" target="_blank">Bravetart</a> - who has been making macarons using a tried, tested and true method. This is my second EVER attempt. Unfortunately my sifter broke half way, and I don't think I quite had the texture I needed. I'll continue to do more digging on good macaron-making techniques. It was a good attempt and I think I have the method (steps) down pat. </div>

<b>Makes: 20 Macarons</b><br />
<h2>
Ingredients</h2>
<br />
<div>
<b><u>Macaron</u>:</b></div>
<ul>
<li>57 g of almond flour</li>
<li>115 g of icing sugar</li>
<li>1 tbsp of cocoa powder</li>
<li>36 g sugar</li>
<li>72g of egg whites</li>
<li>1 tsp vanilla extract</li>
<li>1/4 tsp salt</li>
</ul>
<br />
<i>* Its important that your ingredients are measured precisely.</i><br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.sparrow.nu/2013/12/cream-cheese-frosting.html" target="_blank">Cream Cheese Buttercream</a> used from a previous recipe. </b><br />
<br />
<h2>
Directions</h2>
<br />
<div>
Preheat oven to 230 degrees Fahrenheit. </div>
<ol>
<li>Measure out almond flour, icing sugar and cocoa powder. Put in food processor, and pulse on high until while ground (~15 times). Sift TWICE into bowl that you will set aside.</li>
<li>Mix egg whites, sugar using an hand/standing electric mixer with a <b>whisk</b> attachment - and time yourself for this next part: 3 minutes on low speed, 3 minutes on medium, then 3 minutes on high. </li>
<li>Now, add the salt and vanilla extract (at this point you would add food colouring or flavours, but we do not do that for this recipe) and bump the speed up to maximum for 1 minute (time yourself!). </li>
<li>Your meringue should be very stiff. It should NOT be runny, and should clump in the middle of the whisk. If it doesn't, beat for another minute or keep beating until it clumps in the middle of the whisk.</li>
<li style="margin: 0px 0px 0.25em; padding: 0px;">Add the salt, vanilla extract, food colouring, cinnamon, tumeric, and allspice.</li>
<li>Now add the dry ingredients, and using a spatula FOLD the ingredients, which should take approximately 25 "folds" turns. </li>
<li>Pipe 1 inch onto baking sheet.</li>
<li>Bake for 12 minutes, turn the baking sheet around after 6 minutes. </li>
<li>Remove from oven. Allow to cool complete, then gently slide them off the parchment paper. If they are still sticking, put in freezer for 1 minute. </li>

Yet another recipe <a href="http://www.canadianliving.com/food/apple_spice_cupcakes.php" target="_blank">adapted from Canadian Living</a>. I baked this for my boss's birthday. This was a perfect Thanksgiving/fall recipe and the aroma while baking was AMAZING. My brother's verdict who is a taco-bites with occasional desserts kind-of-person was: "This is surprisingly good!". Sharing this at work, I got a lot of feedback that this actually wasn't too sweet, and smelt very good!</div>

Hong Kong waffle is made from an egg-based batter, and the pattern is simplye: waffles with spherical "egg" like shapes. I've seen it made in asian markets like Pacific Mall and Chinatown in downtown Toronto. Its a very common street food. </div>

<br />
I am now six weeks into Beach Body's T25 workout. This is actually the first time I've been able to stick with an exercise regiment schedule consistently for a month. When I examine why I am bent on getting fit, its really hard to pinpoint. I think life is pretty chaotic and unpredictable as is. My health is something I know I can control, and if I can have mastery over the habits and routines that I set about my body, this keystone habit affects other things: energy level, concentration, confidence, you name it.<br />
<br />
In the past I've tried p90x, I had to stop after 3 weeks due to exercise burnout (actually advised by my family physician at this time when I started to feel fatigued, saw decrease in performance, etc.); and Jillian Michaels Body Revolution, I completed, but the 90-day exercise program took me 6 months since I only completed it sporadically rather than following a set schedule.<br />
<br />
<b>So what was different this time?</b> Well, I actually made the effort to establish a "habit" of exercise. I found it really difficult to exercise consistently just based on motivation only. Sometimes I don't always have the willpower to exercise. So I set out to do a couple of things:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><b>Switched my exercise routines to the morning</b>: This freed up my evenings, and I no longer spent the entire day dreading my exercise routine once I got home, and was tired from work and my commute. I just got up and exercised, and this routine became so automatic I didn't have to think about or "talk" myself into it. I've done this consistently for the past 6 weeks (x36 days), usually after a month of doing something everyday, its pretty solidified as a habit.</li>
<li><b>Tracked my food intake using a calorie-tracking app: </b>Simple, but calorie-tracking also forces me to be conscious of what I eat. I remember seeing a fitspo quote on Instagram about how its easy to exercise for 30 minutes a day, whats harder is controlling what goes into your mouth the other 23.5 hours. I actually find both very hard. </li>
<li><b>Eating less quantity, more quality: </b>I've only recently started calorie tracking (two weeks ago) and I've noticed that I'm eating less quantity, but more quality, nutrient-rich foods. I'm opting for healthier alternatives for junk foods. If I find myself craving something sugary, I stop by the grocery store and pick up 1 pint of fresh raspberries, and just munch on those like chips. A healthy alternative that doesn't make you feel as sluggish.</li>
<li><b>I've budgeted in a "cheat day": </b>My contingency plan for days I go out with friends, or if I go to a family reunion and there's a lot of "Food pushing" that happens, is that I have a "cheat day". Now I don't consciously go out and seek bad food. I allow myself one day a week where I might eat more than I normally budget for during the week. And thats okay, 6 out of 7 days a week I'm eating healthy anyway. No guilt. <a name='more'></a></li>
</ul>

They are so easy to make, and require very little preparation time. The term "deviled" comes from spicy of "zesty" food with egg yolk prepared with mustard, pepper stuffed in a yolk cavity -<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deviled_egg" target="_blank">Wk</a> (sounds appetizing doesn't it?).<br />

<br />
It takes me an hour to commute to work from home on the train; and during that time I bring my laptop with me and work on a couple of things: whether its working on extra-curriculars, listening to podcasts or music, or taking a course.<br />
<br />
I've started with this simple 10 day online course that is to help jump start habits. The three habits I chose to work on were:<br />
<ol>
<li>Cooking healthy homemade meals daily. </li>
<li>Keeping my home organized.</li>
<li>Exercising daily. </li>
</ol>
<div>
I know I could have chosen more worthy goals to try (e.g. "become a better person" or "volunteer more time to charitable causes"), but to be honest, these really <i>simple</i> everyday tasks are habits I really do struggle to find time to do <i>consistently. </i>I felt like if I can focus on getting these down, I could focus on bigger and better things. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I realized the three goals I outlined were actually a bigger problem of <b>managing my time. </b> I often feel I'm flying by the seat of my pants and getting to cooking healthy, keeping my place clean and exercising daily become impossible as well as juggling all the activities and side projects I take on. It's too much, and after some reflection following a burnout earlier this year, I decided that enough was enough.<br />
<br />
A couple of mindsets holding me back:<br />
<br />
<b>"Being a 'yes' person":</b> I said "yes" to a lot of things because I was afraid of missing out. Missing out on social opportunities, missing out on new experiences. Another thing is also the guilt associated with saying "no" to people. I know I certainly get peer pressured into a lot of things: taking up an activity, staying out late, changing my schedule to accommodate others. And yeah, it sucks to say 'no' to people, I hate the idea of disappointing people that are close or important to me. However, doing this more often is perhaps one of the best things I've done. And the people I've said "no" to on occasion; they've stuck around :)<br />
<br />
<b>Jack of all trades, master of none - </b>High performers generally choose one or two things to focus on, and do so with deep focus. If I ever wanted to get good at anything, I can't do that while juggling 4 or 5 other activities.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<b>What it means to "prioritize":</b> I thought picking up these activities would make me a better person. I ended up really stressed out, sleep deprived, and unhappy. I couldn't really appreciate my relationships anymore, I wasn't spending as much time with family, and I wasn't really taking care of myself very well.<br />
<br />
<b>Lofty Goals - </b>I think society teaches us to always go after really lofty goals. I feel vulnerable admitting this, but in the past seeing Facebook posts about world travel, going to the beach, rock climbing, axe throwing, driving nice cars, having unique hobbies, eating out all the time, music festivals... made me feel very ordinary and uninteresting. Perhaps saying "yes" to different activities would make me a more interesting person. However after this enlightening year, all of that is out the window for me.<br />
<br />
<b>Going back to basics - </b>My coworker mentioned her goals right now were to focus on her relationships with her family - her husband, brother, and mother. For her, those relationships are very fulfilling and give her a deep sense of purpose and pride. She's very happy.<br />
<br />
I took a step back and looked at everything I was juggling: are these really activities that add value to my life? To be honest, not really - other than being able to say that I did those things; not very much. I came out tired, exhausted, stressed, and... unhappy.<br />
<br />
The last couple of weeks I've been slowly removing myself I'm actually quitting a couple of activities and trying to determine what 1 or 2 things I'd like to focus on. I'd rather do 1 or 2 things really well, than juggle 5 or 6 activities and not feel like I'm getting anywhere. Perhaps one day if I become more evolved (read: more resourceful and mature) I can start handling more activities without it taking away from other areas of my life.<br />

Panel with Ian Somerhalder</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I dragged Stephen to the event and he was a good sport about it. I didn't realize Ian was formerly part of the "Lost" cast. He definitely played to his audience, flirtatious, and funny. What we were both surprised about was all the philanthropy he's doing through "ISF" where he rescues animals. He's also very passionate about education, the environment. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One of my favourite questions from the audience, "If you were a mythological creature what would you be?"</div>

Whats great about Mario and Luigi is that its so universally recognized. Small children would often point at us, and say "Look mom and dad Mario and Luigi!". The parents would ask for us to take pics with the kids. We were more than happy to do it. </div>

It was my fault for not booking the day off work ahead of time; so I was only able to catch the tail end. My friend Stephen got to meet Veronica Taylor, who has done the voice acting for Ash Ketchum.<br />

Meeting Veronica Taylor</h2>
<div>
Veronica Taylor (along with her daughter) answered some questions during Fan Expo's panel on Day 2. I've grown up watching Pokemon (I was about 12 when I started?) so it was very nostalgic to hear her answer questions about the show; and even do some voice acting then and there. </div>

Fan Expo is taking place in Toronto and covers vendors, events, panels for five genres including comics, sci-fi, horror, anime, and gaming. A great perk? The cosplay! I rushed over after work to line up and get my tickets. </div>

<h2>
Before T25</h2>
<b>It was p90x - </b>I really enjoyed the results I had with p90x, although I personally found it difficult to keep up with because the workouts were often too long and I didn't have as much motivation. Within the two weeks that I had kept up with the 90 day program I saw the biggest transformations: better energy, I lost inches off my waist line, toned out everywhere and I felt athletic - keeping up with the "strong guys" during team sports exercises like beach volleyball. It was liberating and empowering.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Why I stopped p90x - </b>I fell off the p90x bandwagon pretty quickly, and it <i>actually</i> was not related to motivation. Three weeks into p90x I went to my family doc complaining of fatigue, sleeplessness, inability to concentrate in class. I actually found it harder to keep up with p90x with time, despite sticking with the regiment.<br />
<br />
The diagnosis? <b><i>Overtraining</i></b>, "physical, behavioral, and emotional condition that occurs when the volume and intensity of an individual's exercise exceeds their recovery capacity. They cease making progress, and can even begin to lose strength and fitness" - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtraining" target="_blank">Wk</a> Bummer. I think a big contributing factor was that I didn't adjust my diet to fit with the new exercise regiment. So my body burntout pretty quickly.<br />
<br />
Since then I've been dabbling in different exercise programs - Body Revolution by Jillian Michaels, hitting up my local gym, etc.<br />
<br />
<h2>
Low weight, higher BMI: </h2>
One of the <a href="http://instagram.com/leahbeahig" target="_blank">fitness trainers that I follow on Instagram</a> posted progress pictures of before and after Shaun T's Focus T25 program. She talks about a term called "skinnyfat" where you may not be overweight; but you have a higher percentage of body fat.<br />
<br />
Apart from the impressive "tonage" I saw on the progress pictures, I decided it was worth the try.<br />

<h2>
Starting T25</h2>
<b>When I first heard of T25 exercise program, I was intimidated. </b>I was worried it was “too hard” to keep up with based on reviews I was reading online. The program is only 25 minutes long and has three phases: alpha, beta, and gamma; with each phase getting progressively harder.<br />
<br />
<b>First day was the hardest - </b>When I started and completed “cardio”, the very first workout, I could not believe how heavy my limbs felt. It was frustrating to not be able to move my body at the speed and form the way that I wanted to. Now, I am into week two of the program and I just finished my 9th workout. I can now get through cardio in a breeze.<br />
<br />
<b>The "physical" aspect of working out wasn't the hard part - </b>The physical pains and aches are temporary. The biggest In the first week, every time I was trying to get myself to commit to a workout, I couldn’t believe the number of excuses or reasons why I shouldn’t workout came up. The most common excuse I made? “I don’t have enough time.”<br />
<br />
So I decided to try something different. For the first time since I started working out at age 19, I decided to move my workout to my morning. Normally I spend 25 minutes just hitting the snooze button my alarm. This is no exaggeration, I actually snooze it 6-or 7 times before I wake up, which has been shown to actually enhance sleep inertia and leads to daytime sleepiness. There are also many successful entrepreneurs whose most productive time of the day is in the morning. I’ve adjusted to sleeping earlier so I can wake up earlier to do the workouts.<br />

What positive changes have I noticed? By implementing this, my mood has improved, I’m actually getting MORE sleep because I make the conscious effort to do what I can to wake up early. I have more alertness and energy in the morning, my mood has improved and I have a more rigid routine.<br />
<br />
<b>Next Steps - </b>The next thing I have to work on: diet. I have been eating my regular (unhealthy) diet while doing T25. I still feel that “salt/processed sugar” bloat, and admittedly am indulging in bad foods. A lot of this comes excuses like, “I don’t have time to make dinner”. Again, TIME.<br />
<br />
Hopefully I can give an update in a few weeks.<br />
