Man, how time flies. My godson/nephew is 14 years old today. I still remember the day I had to take my sister to the hospital because her water broke in the middle of the night. I was telling her that it was false alarm and to go back to sleep.
Because Jay is born a day before mine, he is actually partially named after me. Jay’s real name is Joelle Jeffrey (hence J.J. for short). Because my sister wanted to pronounce “Joel” the filipino way as “Joe-well”, she decided to spell it Joelle.
Happy Birthday Jay Jay
Have you tried “24 Lift” class at 24 hour fitness? If you haven’t, give it a try. It is very intense. My friend Alpesh highly recommended it the other day. So me, Mike and Alpesh met up at the 24 hour fitness by South Coast Plaza and man, did I get my butt kicked… I couldn’t keep up with the class. Even with low weights, with the repetition my body was aching. Mike and I jogged before the class so at the end of our gym workout we were beat.
After gym, I decided to tag along with Mike and Christine for dinner. Our choices were either Shabu Shabu or Taiwanese food. We ended up going to Taiwanese restaurant in Artesia called Canaan since it has more variety than the Shabu Shabu place. The food is good and price is reasonable. Each dish averages about $8.
Dish on left is Taiwanese pancake (port and scallions I think) and right are watercress, fish, chicken and vegie hot pot
