I somehow fixed the astigmatism in my right eye. I'm wondering if it has to do with my running. I tend to favor one eye over the other when I run. I probably look like a pirate when I run

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Okay I guess I'm getting into visible chest blood vessels territory. 6 years of consistent diet and exercise was all it took.

I run without a shirt on because it's hot, so I've been getting quite the tan. I've also lost quite a lot of belly fat, enough that my belly button is flatter. But there is some skin on the inner part that's apparently never seen the light of day because it is quite white.

Tried my hand at making French onion carbonara ramen. Screwed the carbonara part so just ended up with french onion ramen. Someone should seriously consider making a French onion ramen

I think it's been 6 years since I started running. Still don't like it. P.S. I almost got run over again today by a driver not paying attention while going through a crosswalk

[Edward Kim @taesup]

When you're sick and your joints ache, but you decide to go for a run anyway because you don't let a silly little thing like illness keep you from the gym. You end up walking like a T-Rex everywhere afterward because your knees and hips won't bend past a certain angle.

I ended up filleting my finger at the start of the year. It was bleeding a lot so the cut itself was deep. But thanks to how callused my finger are, the cut itself was quite small, the rest was actually just my callused skin. I was wondering why a deep cut wasn't painful at all.

So Instagram has auto translate on reels. But it's not that great. It tried to translate, "나는 말야", but it translated it to "I am a horse." Which would technically be correct, but I'm pretty sure the song I was listening to wasn't about a person trying to be a horse.

Mexican street corn, Korean BBQ, Greek chicken,homemade mayo, Butter Chicken, Chinese roast pork ... I cooked a lot of international dishes over this Xmas break. I'll finally be done cooking tomorrow and I don't think I'll feel the need to cook for quite a while.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Went for a walk and didn't realize I didn't take my keys till I got back. I got home by using the call up box in front to buzz myself in. Then, realized I had to walk up the stairs to my floor. Good thing today is legs day... I'm spent.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Things I've learned on my cooking experiment today: homemade mayo is amazing. Also, burnt corn smells like coffee, and eventually burnt coffee.

I love taking my contacts off after chopping up a bunch of peppers. Spicy eyes.

Nothing gives you a flat stomach like passing out for 24 hours and not eating or drinking anything because the membrane between your brain and the rest of your body is inflamed due to some viral infection.

I'm currently at a wedding and due to my background in the nightclub scene ... I can't help but sit here ... and silently judge the wedding DJ. I'm sorry but some of the transitions were atrocious.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

I know which cars are not paying attention because I stare at every driver in every car coming into the intersection when I run. If we don't make eye contact, I'm just gonna give you the bird and if you come close to me, I'll kick your car.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

More running horror stories: was almost hit three times in a two block radius. 1st time I ran up to the window with my hands up, by the third car I gave up and just gave everyone the bird. PAY ATTENTION WHEN YOU DRIVE.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Today I cooked:
3 lbs of chicken
3 lbs of ground beef and veggies
1 lb of homemade salsa
6 eggs

This meal prepping is getting out of hand.

This is after working out for 3 hours, showering twice, vacuuming, and going grocery shopping.

It's been a busy day.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

I'm convinced that no matter how much you work out, a cast iron pan will always be heavy. It's like it knows you got stronger and magically got heavier just to annoy you.

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Running horror SOTD: went for a run, noticed lots of bugs. They were literally all up in my grill. I've been running with no shirt lately. Finished my run and looked down to see a literal sea of dead beds on my chest. I now know what it feels like to be a car front bumper

[Edward Kim @taesup]

Another day where I find myself at the gym at 2 in the morning. At least there's no one here and I can sing and dance in between sets.
