Tip of the Post:
The Student Union Building (better known as the SUB) has a basement. Did you know this? I was not aware until I visited The Pendulum for breakfast today with a friend. A surprisingly large sit-down restaurant, it offers many unique dishes including a delicious eggs benedict (or so I am told). I enjoyed a scrambled egg dish with spinach, peppers, roasted garlic, and feta cheese. Completed with a side of perfectly fried potatoes and pre-buttered whole wheat toast, the meal was well worth the $6.00 and astonishingly short wait. Go.
Some of you may remember an earlier entry requesting your advice as to whether I should break up with Tae Kwon Do – for a time, at least. If not, those of you that did take the time to answer me dissented and advised me to “stick it out”. So, naturally, I did the exact opposite.
I’ve now signed up for Vinyasa Yoga at the SRC. I fully loved the two free shopping week classes and the feeling of relaxation after the class was done. Plus I’ve always wanted to try Yoga. Let’s say it was a resolution.
Oh! I have a class review too: Physics 101. If you’re a science student (like me!) this class is a must. It has already applied to Chemistry 121 and EOSC 112, making the lectures that confused everyone else in the seminar a breeze for me. Trust me: you want to learn about energy, waves, buoyancy, and pressure. I won’t lie to you and say that it was the most invigorating course I’ve taken, but it has been incredibly useful in the tiny period of time since its completion. And if you’re lucky enough to have Javed Iqbal as your prof, you may even become the slightest bit interested in the subject matter. His passion for his craft is really inspiring and is something which contrasts “good” teachers from “outstanding” ones.
Presently, I have some interesting entries in the making. Drafts. For some reason I’ve been suffering from writer’s block since coming back from holidays. Let’s hope it backs down soon.
But I’m back. Love,
Lindsay

I can’t believe you didn’t know about the SUB Basement!! I ♥ brekkie at the Pendulum! I also recommend Sprouts.
Also, I completely agree with your opinion of Javed. Dr. Iqbal was hands down the best physics professor I’ve encountered.
Also check out Sprouts, just down the hall from The Pendulum — good, cheap, healthy lunches from 11-2!
Yes, I LOVE the Pendulum’s breakfasts! I went so often last term the guy at the cashier remembered my name. …oops!
Sometimes I eat their breakfast for my lunch — by getting there at ten to 11 and ordering before they switch menus! 😀
Yes 😀 The Pendulum also has Vegen food 😀
PS: That’s the first positive I’ve heard about PHYS 101.
