Bento Box

Cliche, but it really seems like only yesterday that I was still living in San Francisco and Millbrae. I barely got to taste what it was like to be a real San Franciscan, be close to my friends, and do random shit on a whim. Either way, I think I would have grown as a person, just in a different direction.

If I stayed in San Francisco, I probably would have become more social and meet new friends through others. However by becoming a Seattlite (or Issaquahian), I’ve completely turned into an active, outdoorsy person. Not to say that I wasn’t active in the Bay Area, but that was mainly just indoor sports and being a gym rat. Since moving here, I’ve been snowboarding, snowshoeing, hiking, biking, playing tennis and in general, just being in the sun more.

Maybe its the friends I’ve made here, or maybe it’s the easy accessibility of all these activities, but I’m surprised I never did this kind of stuff back in the Bay Area.

Now that it’s starting to cool down and rain again, I’ve reverting back into the same wintertime activites of last year: going to the gym, playing videogames, and learning guitar. Maybe I’ll try to play some badminton or racquetball; but it’s really hard finding a partner for that kind of stuff. I’m leaning toward doing anything that’s free though; I’m trying to pinch and many pennies as I can in preparation for maybe/kinda/sorta becoming a homeowner. But I’ll save that for a blog entry some other time.
