The Daily Prompt – No. 164
Which aspects do you think makes a person unique?
What makes a person unique? Obviously we can use physical qualities but let’s try to get a little bit deeper. I believe that a person’s philosophy (or worldview) and personality are what makes them unique. In other words: it’s what they think, the filter that they use to process the info from thinking, and the way they express how they think.

Nene’s Taqueria – Food Review
Lately, my friends have been sending me posts on Instagram of various people doing food reviews at food shops and restaurants. One of these places that caught my eye was one of Nene’s Taqueria in Brooklyn. IAM and I took a trip there last night.
We got there around 8 p.m. The place was packed with customers waiting for their orders and those consuming their selections. Also, since it was early spring, the weather was nice but wasn’t warm enough to dine outside.
Nene’s is known for their variety of birria dishes. We decided to get the birria pizza and ramen. They were able to translate the typical birria cuisine and flavor into an unorthodox presentation like the “pizza” which really is a big quesadilla, and into a noodle soup with a rich broth.
“Pizza” 
Ramen Our selections from Nene’s On a scale of “1” to “5”, with whole integers and “3” out of the question, I would give Nene’s Taqueria a 4. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for the next one.

When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?
To be honest, I don’t remember much when I was five. I can give some vague details about that year in my life; however, not this fact. I remember being cognizant of my surroundings and letting it impact my memory at the age of six.

New Achievement
Soul Scout Badge I took my 25th ride at Soul Cycle yesterday and I got this neat badge from the app.
(Shout out to IAM. She put me onto the franchise and she loves it. She has taken 125 classes.)
Spin is a great alternative to running for cardio workouts. It’s a bit pricey for a single class, but you get a discounted price for first time purchasers. Also the more classes one purchases at once, the cost per class lowers.
Also IAM is able to find various discounts for the classes so that makes a difference. You should go to her blog to check out her other tips for saving money!

How has technology changed your job?
In my previous job I was working on a computer. It involved working a lot with the programs in Microsoft Office suite (e.g., Word, Excel, PowerPoint). However, 4 years ago, the “pandemic” happened so we were relegated from a in-office position to working from home. (I was one of the last ones to actually stop working in the office.)
It was great having a remote job because I didn’t have to worry about transportation into the office. It was a good experience. But all good things must come to an end. Now it’s onto the next best thing, wherever that might be.
