Not as planned: work overload!!

Day 2 of the Challenges went well... maybe I didn't even have time to think otherwise??? I didn't plan to work much yesterday because I woke up and still feeling exhausted... I thought giving me a day break! But then, I got an email from a person from Federal Reserve Board about a not submitted application for summer intern. I totally forgot about that because I already got an offer to work on Congressional Budget Office this summer. But the problem was that when I asked Carmen to send letter of recommendations for me, she sent it to all places that I asked her (3-4), so she did that. And FRB got a very strong recommendation on my behalf but they never received additional materials from me like CV, cover letter and dissertation proposal. I guess Carmen's letter was really good so they contacted me anyway to see if I've sent them already. Obviously that caught me by total surprise and I had to work on my dissertation proposal to send it right away (deadline for application was April 1st, so he's doing me a big favor by letting me send it now). So, I worked through all day on that until 8 pm! That's about 10 hours!!! Insane for an already exhausted body! But well... I think I had to do it, even though the chance that they pick me is very low since I told them I've already got an offer. But it's always good to stay in good term with those people.
Anyway. before I move into food, let me post this award that I received from Krista and Emily before I forget again! Sorry ladies, I was bad of not having posted it earlier. Both of them honoured me with a spectacular Bloggers Award. Thank you, Krista and Emily!!! I feel so lucky to have so many wonderful bloggers in my life. This community is so inspirational (both spiritually and culinary) & truly amazing.FRIENDS… comes with the following description to be added & passed along: “These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated.” It also says : “Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.”

It's hard to choose 8 people because you are all so amazing!

Now back to food. I was a good girl following challengeS guideline.
Breakfast: A made my first green monster because Krista mentioned that it is helping her on IBS. Simple ingredients since I wanted to have my normal breakfast. So, in the mix: carrots, cucumber, kiwi and spinach.Main breakkie was another bowl of oat bran with pumpkin, coconut milk, egg white with 1 tbsp of Dark Chocolate Dream. And an apple!The BIG feast that hold me until lunch.
Lunch was a salad made with spinach, alfalfa sprouts, mushrooms, orange peppers, baked tofu, tomatoes, sesame seeds and walnuts. Dressing: olive + balsamic.I though that was not cal enough for a meal so I had first 1/2 toasted muffin with 1 tbsp PB. It was so good that I went for the other half 10 min later.PM snack 1: Jelly~~~ No, it's NOT POM jelly!! jajaja...... did I fool you? I know it seems to be POM jelly again, but actually it's made from a berries chai tea!!! yeah~~~ just made tea and add agar powder to it! It was delish~~~PM snack 2: plate of strawberries.Dinner came late and assembled in <15 class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">kabocha + steam green peas and a high-protein scrambled egg with lentils and aduki beans topped with wheatberries.Dessert: black rice porridge with coconut milk! love it~~~ the coconut flavor stood out much more this way than adding to the oatbran. Finally, I ended up my day doing the Dave Farmer's 75 min class recommended by Maggie. (at 11pm) Thank you so much Maggie!!! You know, if it was not because I told you I was going to do it later, I wouldn't have do it. But after I finished, I felt sooooooooo good.... it was so much needed after my long exhausting day of work!! Love the idea of headstand as resting posture! ^_^

Question: Is there anything that you would never give up for your other half (bf or husband)? Or you would give up anything like work, friends, hobbies?

Today's plan:
- day off please!!!
