Masterchef

My sister is addicted to Masterchef, and as a result, I am too! It’s an interesting cooking competition where you can actually sabotage the other opponents and winning certain challenges really gives you an advantage the following rounds. My sister’s gone through three seasons in about three days and I’ve been tagging along and watching on the side. It’s such a nice night when we order in food and watch television together!

We also watched the two new episodes of Video Game High School. Video Game High School is a series that was created by a bunch of YouTube stars. The first season is now a movie on Netflix and I’ve watched it several times over. Now, with Kickstarter funding their second season, they’re releasing new episodes and they are just as hilarious as before. If you haven’t checked out the series, I highly recommend it! It’s amazing how amateur YouTube videographers can make these high quality videos! I mean, I don’t think they’re even amateurs anymore in my book!

Sister time is the best time (no mummies alowed).

And So Starts the Single Living

My family left this morning and left me to fend for myself. I’m only going to be alone for two days and then I’m off to Baltimore to visit my sister for a few days. I went to Trader Joe’s to pick up a few groceries and make myself some lunch. My kitchen is much smaller than the one I had while living in my college apartment and there are a few miscellaneous workarounds I have to do deal with but I think it made it work.

I made a chicken breast with mushrooms and Brussels sprouts on the side. Because my sink is smaller than I’m used to and I only have a hot water tap, I had to be a little more efficient and clean up without leaving anything in the sink and the scalding hot water. No matter though, it worked out in the end and I had a lovely lunch and enough for dinner too!
I also booked my shuttle to the airport so I feel pretty accomplished for today. I want to go for a quick run too but I’m feeling a bit lethargic after lunch. But I do need to work towards that 100 mile goal. Tomorrow, I’ll going on the endeavors of coin Laundromats and maybe a little packing for the East Coast. Stay tuned for the adventures of single living!
