Bang Bang

I went to the Lotte Shooting Range at Jamsil yesterday to go shooting. I went with a coworker, someone who'd never shot a gun but was interested and willing.

I've been there twice before, not to mention the couple of times I've gone to the shooting range back home with my dad. It's kind of expensive to go, but since guns are not a common thing in Korea and this is the only place I've seen where you can shoot real guns, I guess they can afford to be expensive.

They make you wear a vest and ear protection. They quickly show you how to hold the gun, let you do a quick test shot without the clip, and then you start.

10 bullets, with a 45 (not sure the actual gun model).

Ooh, let's see a close-up of the grouping.

Ok, they said I got 97%, though they may have been a little generous, since there's clearly two shots right on the 9/10 line and a questionable shot on the 8/9 line. But maybe I'm just nitpicking.

And because I wanted to take a picture, they insisted I also take a picture standing in front of a screen, wearing a silly looking camo helmet and holding a fake gun.

Good times....aiming (haha, pun intended) for 100% next time.

You Tube is my Kryptonite

I cannot get away from it.

I watch it all the time, because it's so convenient for me. I'm constantly checking for new videos from my subscriptions, and if there are no new ones, then I go searching for random makeup collection and haul videos.

I even seriously thought about trying my hand at filming, but decided not to after 5 failed attempts. I also figure that I have a short attention span when it comes to following through with things, so I'd probably have few videos and the time between them would be enormous, or I'd just give up after awhile because it takes so much time.

I need to stop. It's killing my free time. It's also making me spend more money, because I see more things that I want. *_*

New Goal: Updated

So a couple of posts ago, I mentioned how I had a goal for the majority of May. The idea was that I would not eat out unless it was another birthday or special event or spend money on frivolous items from the 1st until my birthday, the 25th. What I didn't know at the time was that everyone's birthday was in May, so I ended up going out every weekend to celebrate with a birthday dinner. However, other than that, I was pretty good, and did save a noticeable amount of money.

I kind of lost it at the very end, and literally two days before my birthday I broke and ended up spending money, on makeup, I think. *sigh*

My new goal for the rest of July is to exercise more and spend less. Starting Monday, July 12 (because that's when I get paid), I will do the following:
1. Do cardio at least 3 times a week, for at least 30 minutes each time.
2. Stretch every day.
3. Drink more water, and no soda or coffee.
4. Start cooking at home more.
5. Do not spend money (except on MAC's In the Groove collection when it comes out, which I don't think it has here yet).

I'm going to keep it to 5 for now, and I haven't eliminated going out, but have increased eating at home more. I'm really hoping this will make eating generally healthier while saving some money.
