new game words with friends, you are amazing!
i really wish i were good at running or at least had some good running shoes. but on a better note, my calf muscles look really good :)
i moved into the household and we have no idea how to arrange the furniture in my room. there are just a lot of cabinets..too many for the no wall space that we have :(
i am never home and this whole work during the week and never get a day off is really starting to get to me, i am soo not used to having no freedom to do anything. people are starting to go to the beach and have fun, but now that i think about it maybe i dont belong there just yet so this might be a good thing.
i really enjoy the fact that i get to come to work and be on a set schedule and i come to the gym everyday and i have a routine, i think thats good for me. although i wish i could spend more time with world ventures and actually go on a dreamtrip at some point in my life.
i hope they open disney studios in santa clarita soon, how fun would that be.
this is all just a random collection of my random thoughts...very uninteresting today i think, but i'm bored so i keep typing. i spent this weekend with kelsey and keith michael, i miss spending time with my family, im not going to be able to do as much with them now that i have this new job that stinks kinda. i cant wait til' the crawfish boil i am soooo stoked.
maybe if something interesting happens today i'll add it, but until then...

i got pee on me
#1 yesterday i went to the bathroom at work...on the girls side of the building so i thought everything would be pretty and nice and shiny...{just a side story: "the boys kitchen" as i refer to it has been smelling like urine all week, then i discovered the little mouse bathroom on the second shelf where they keep oatmeal that nobody (except the mouse) eats and water bottles that nobody uses. anyways i kind of cleaned the mouse bathroom and called it a day, this mouse and i have some history, but back to the original story} as i was sitting there using the restroom i noticed that there was some urine on the outside of the toilet...strange how does that even happen? i wonder??? one of the 15 boys that i work with must have used the bathroom on my side of the building... (this is soo not allowed anymore) anyways i continued on with my current task and when i got up to wash my hands i looked back and realized not only was there some pee on the toilet bowl, but it was also on the ground! the exact area of the ground where my shorts had just grazed! ya i was panicked too. in HORROR i reached my hand down to the bottom of my shorts to discover that not only was there pee on my shorts, but it was someone elses pee...and i was grabbing it with my hand!!! eww boys are banded from the girls side of the building from now on!!! luckily it was the end of the day so i got to go home but i changed into my gym pants because i was not about the drive home in pee-pee shorts.
#2 tuesday at church i was in the 2-3 yr old class and i was taking one of the little girls to the bathroom. for some reason kids only feel the need to wipe the back and not the front even if they dont poop. so i said hey wait you have to wipe the front, as i reached across her to get her some more (fresh) toilet paper for her she took the toilet paper that she had used to wipe the back to wipe the front...not only was this unsanitary for her, but it was bad for me as half of the toilet paper that she had used had fallen into the toilet and been soaked with pee/toilet water. and as she flicked to reuse this disgustingly dampened toilet paper, it slapped me in the arm.
pee loves to be on me... especially other peoples pee.

I missed a couple of days here. sorry self.
I have officially decided to read other people's blogs. i really feel like nobody in there right mind would read this, unless extremely bored or i suppose if they love me a lot...in that case thank you reader. therefore since i dont think anybody is actually going to read this, i am far more likely to add details that i might not otherwise add....i figure other people feel the same way so blogs will be interesting
this week i went and worked out 4 days. it went really well. thursday morning i worked out with tabi's friend dani at her apartment in marina del rey. i liked that a lot! it went by really fast because we talked the whole time. i figure if i work out with her on wed and fri (the days after church, when i'm most tired and least likely to want to go to the gym) it'll be best becasue i'll have accountability.
i ran on wed. it was no joke the best workout i have had thus far in my little venture. i drank coffee on my way to the gym because i was really tired..but i think that it turned out to be really helpful. i usually start my workout with a little warm-up walk...even though the slauson gym has a built in warm up as the cardio machines are on the 3rd floor and you have to take a million stairs to get there. but anyways...thats at about a 3.0-3.5, then i jog and walk...about a 5.5-6.4, but i ran on wed. i did 7.4- it was fast...guess i know the difference between running and jogging now. i figured that if im going to get 3 miles in 30 min or less i need to be able to at least maintain an avg of 6.0 for that 30 min...im working my way up.
i left the gym on wed with a huge "i-like-a-boy smile" on my face. i was really proud with how hard i worked and i felt pretty successful. i was sweating even after my shower while i was getting ready, get some extra calories burned :) that day my skinny pants were too big on my waist...i just bought those! feels great that they're too big though.
i met this woman in the gym and we talked while we were getting ready. she told me that when she was making a commute like mine and going to the gym, she was in the best shape of her life, so that gives me hope. i really like having the running goal as opposed to the weight loss goal it makes me want to go to the gym more because i can see the results immediately. i ran my 3 miles in 39:30, which is only 6 seconds off of my previous time, but at least i tried the whole running and not jogging thing.
i started packing to move out. and by packing i mean i started throwing away all my stuff- it needed to be done, and i dont need fat clothes anymore anyway...speaking of fattys...when i was leaving the gym the other day i noticed a piece of sprinkle donut on the door handle...who leaves the gym with a sprinkle donut in their mouth? a fatty!!!

and so it begins
I always think that i want to start a blog because i have a lot of thoughts...then when it actually comes to starting one i have suddenly run out of thoughts. but not this time!
I dont want to get on peoples nerves by constantly posting facebook status changes (whilst hilarious), so this will be my outlet from now on because i do have a lot of thoughts going on in my head and writing them on here will be a great outlet.
to start, i went to the gym this morning and i am currently really really sore. although im not sure if that soreness is from the gym or from running around at work in my heels either way- sore is sore.
i am currently at work sitting and waiting for...ring... alright usually i just sit and wait but sometimes it does actually ring. i like this job. i enjoy the people that i work with and its a pretty fun atmosphere when i actually do get to interact with them- but i do spend a lot of time reading my nook behind my desk by myself. i try to get up and walk around whenever i can, it burns more calories and when i'm wearing my heels i can practice my model walk so that's alway fun.
i truly dont believe that anyone will ever read this and that gives me comfort and freedom. maybe my mom will read this one day if she's bored?
i'm moving into the girls household sometime this week. i'm very scared and excited at the same time. it is for sure going to be life changing and challenging. it will help me build relationships and i'll be able to spend more time with everybody because i'll be closer... including 10 miles closer to my job which is good.
i hate laundry, hate it! and along with that, i dont really like going to the gym that much. i wake up at 430 every morning and grab my gym bag and leave. half asleep i drive 45 minutes to the gym by lax, sit in my car for about 10 minutes and try to convince myself to walk into the gym. after this i go in and work out.august to december i lost 26 lbs-i havent lost any weight since january- i keep going back and forth within the same 5 lbs and its getting really really annoying. soo ive decided i am not trying to lose weight anymore, instead i am going to run a marathon. in my efforts to train for said marathon i hope to lose weight. i have a lot of gym knowledge being that i have done a lot of diet and workout plans...however i never actually stick with them long enough to even get to a plateau, but im pretty sure that is exactly what this is. so i've heard this is the point where you need to change things up- hence marathon plan.
i have had this new job for a month now and with the new job has come a regular eating schedule, regular gym visits and i drink more water before 8 am than i used to drink in an entire day...i think im doing a pretty good job... but totally discouraged, until this morning when i put on my skinny jeans and they were a little lose around the waist :)))
when i started my very exciting marathon training, i bought a book, but in order to use the book, you need to have 3 miles in 30 min or less...i soo do not have that so i ran* (walk/jogged) 3 miles just to see where i was- 43:10 i expected about 45 min so that was right around there and pretty good considering i never run and i hate running just about as much as i hate laundry. so the next day i pushed myself a little more and did 39:36 pretty proud of myself...then i skipped the gym, but here it is tuesday and im back on track- i can totally do this whole running thing. and i think i might even be liking it. not the running itself but the whole goal setting and accomplishing thing.
