New month! Happy China Day!? 5,000 years of history but today is China Day.
Liked today’s hotel breakfast! Will it last? They had ham at breakfast this morning, and goodie bags for kids! (They gave me one). Gotta be careful how much I eat because then I’m just lethargic after!
Workouts in! First kilometer was in 8.39, restarted the watch ,next 6.15km was in 33.34. Kilometer 5 was run in 5 minutes, so had a good pace going. Afternoon was into the weight room for legs, chest, and some accessories.
Finished Week 2 assignment! Building a “human-like” AI agent, which really just taught me how to build my own MCP and that Google offers its search API through Serp API (250 searches per month).
Finally finished Season 3 of Billions! Been watching clips of Sopranos (haven’t finished yet), working through House of Cards Season 6. And… watching gaming videos on Youtube!
And new video up on the language vlog!
