Pan-seared steak


Cooked up some pan seared steak today, and it turned out well. The way i made it is to first put an iron skillet in a 500 degree oven, I seasoned it, than seared both sides. Finished it off by sticking the steak back in the oven so the inside would cook. It tasted delicious with a crispy flaky outer layer and a moist inner layer.

Dolphin Adventure Ride

Pretty awesome day. Went to the sea life reserve near diamond head, swam with some sting rays and sharks their, I was nervous, but excited. The sting ray's basically were like under water cats, they would swim up to you and caress your leg as a cat would then lay around and sleep all day. swimming near a shark wasn't as bad as i thought. She was quite chill and kept to her own.

My Dolphin experience was a first time for me. smooth intellectual creatures they are. I had a blast so did my family. I felt like aqua man riding the belly of a dolphin, having that feeling like i am king of the sea. I could see myself holding a trident with a chariot of dolphins ruling the ocean with my powerful hands. haha. I learned a lot about dolphin hierarchy and communication there. Dolphins have scratches on there backs like tattoos as a sign of where they are at in the ladder of their group and the scratches come from their fellow dolphins jagged teeth.

I ended the day off with dinner at a shrimp shack and hit the hay for my next adventure tomorrow.

UFC 101

My boy anderson silva came through for me in true anderson silva fashion. He is pound for pound the greatest fighter that ever lived. His movement is just effortless and his striking is so sharp. He is truly a one of a kind fighter. He knocks out Forest Griffen while backing up with his hands down. His striking evokes confidence and his swagger is that of a professional, some of the qualities i strive for as a fighter. Someday i will hope to attain that level of greatness in my life.

it's been 3 months.

Let's see it's been three months since i last posted. well maybe i should start again. i am currently recovering from my knee surgery. it's been 3 weeks so far that means 5 more months till i could test my knee out and all together a year till i get back into fighting. i want to start doing triathlons since i can't fight. That would be amazing rehabilitation to get back into fighting shape. let's see things i gotta do apply for my classes, get a loan out of the bank, and start getting my ass back into the gym. ive gained like 15 pounds so far and i feel terribly unhealthy. I got beat up by a 98 pound ferocious little girl for God's sake. i really need to get my act together and finish what i started. If i don't i feel that my life will start spiraling downward into a dark abyss. well im praying i could do better for myself. there's a lot of things that must be done.

Skipped Class and Went to the Beach

Went to Santa Cruz today with my friends Lara and Amy. We decided to go out of impulse while we where chillen at the sjsu pool. So we packed our stuff and left.

When we got there we went sunbathing and swimming, ate some soft served ice cream and blew bubbles to make the world a better place.
