112008-112208: pre-employment test, air filters and six miles

on thursday, i went in to take my pre-employment test. it was pretty easy. now there's a phone interview on monday.

yesterday, the cabin air filters and the engine air filter that i ordered came in the mail. so i replaced them both in my car. it was pretty easy, the cabin air filters were inside my glove box and the engine air filter was inside the hood. no screws or tools needed. i can't believe jiffylube would have charged me more than a 100 bucks for the service, when i paid 40 bucks for the parts and did it myself. btw, the cabin air filters were especially grody.. i plan on changing them again in 15k miles. i found out that doing car work by yourself is incredibly fulfilling. i noticed a difference straight away both in both engine performance and the air quality inside my car. perhaps next week i will change the oil, because jiffylube put in shitty oil.

oh and yesterday i biked around 6.5 miles with daniel bay. his leisurely pace translated into heaving breaths, spasm-y legs and a funny waddle for me. still, it was good exercise and i slept extremely well yesterday. although part of me thinks i overslept because i ate a 2/3rds of a frozen cpk pizza and some ice cream. talk about negation.. anyway, i might even get a 24 hr fitness membership because we passed by one on our ride. 2.5 mile bike warm-up would be pretty nice.. i didn't do any biking today, but starting tomorrow.. i shall do it.. semi-regularly..

okay, two more sections and then gonna try to get to bed.
