    "It's a sport, but the bottom line is money. The bikes are lighter, but not that much so. Sure, the training has been refined but there's no substitute for doing the miles. - Ken Laidlaw - First Scottish cyclist to race the Tour de France."

    Test / Pass / Salsa

    Today I woke up early and drove into town to sit one of the 7 exams that I need to pass to become a licensed Architect. The first part of the exam was 1hr spent drawing an interior layout, then after a 15min break I had 4hrs to figure out an overall building layout. The first part went reasonably well but I ran out of time to place all the furniture. Probably not a huge problem. The second part went a lot better. I had my solution nailed and checked about ten times within 2.5hrs and left early. Fingers crossed that I've passed!

    After the exam, I checked my mail at home and got a PASS letter from the Site Planning & Design exam that I took back on December 2nd.

    Phew!

    Tonight, I decide to have a go at making my own salsa...

    I think it turned out alright... 3 tomato's, 1/2 red onion, juice from 1 lime, 1 jalapeno pepper (I don't want to burn off my taste buds just yet), some cilantro, salt, and pepper. Tastes alright.
