I'd like everyone reading to note that this is my fourth post this summer. Though to many experienced bloggers, this may not seem particularly fantastic, for me, it represents the growth of my personal blogging tendencies. I have now written twice as many posts as I wrote last summer!
Thus, by my calculations, if I continue this rate of growth, I will be blogging more than Alex Hsu in less than 20 years! (As a caveat to this, my total blog length in words will not exceed his for another 10 years, and my total blog length will exceed his in just over 50 years.)
Just kidding. But Alex Hsu posts a lot.
Highlights of my summer include baking a cake. That may not seem like much, but you didn't try this cake. It had 11 eggs, 5.5 sticks of butter, and 2 lb.s of sugar. It was a beast of a cake. And it was about the same size as a standard cake, so each slice was really filling. After I made it, my family sat down and ate a slice each. Even though it was right before dinner, we couldn't eat for another five hours.
I've also started rowing on an erg (is that right?) machine. So hopefully I'll be as big as Stenard when I get back (yeah right...). I've actually also been incredibly successful at continuing Karate. After three years, my black belt is finally getting embroidered. This is a little sad, because most people get their black belts embroidered after six months. It's also sad because the person who embroiders belts is on vacation, so I won't get my belt back for another three weeks. Which means that in the interim, I will be wearing a white belt. Which is OK. White belts are pretty stylish.
I'll put up my comic for this coming Wednesday soon. Hopefully I submitted it early enough for the paper...
