There is No Quick Fix
I have had a lot of people lately ask me questions about health in fitness because for all of those who weren't aware my major is physical education exercise science and I am thinking about minoring in nutrition. So when I tell people this, they get this strange gleam in their eye's like they have just found the holy grail and I then get bombarded with questions. Some of which are "What should I be eating?!" "Will you help me workout?!" "Can you make me a workout plan?!" I am always quite willing to help so then I start asking MY questions. "What's your activity level like?" "What do you generally eat on a daily basis?" And the answers are usually I don't workout and I don't eat breakfast then have ramen for lunch then drink a huge soda then eat some candy and then have some cereal and poptarts for dinner. I am not saying that everybody out there eats like this but believe it or not some people do. So then I tell them ok first you have to get rid of the soda and then they freak out and go no I need to have that soda!! Well then I can't help you. So really what the person wanted to know was how can I eat crap and not exercise and look like a total babe. Sure some people can do this because they have awesome genes but for the rest of we have to work really hard. But do people want to work hard and earn success of course not. We want it handed to us just like everything else in our lives. If you do what you have always done you will always look the way you do. So don't expect me to sympathize with you. I will probably just give you a good dose of tough love and nobody wants to see that :)

Why this Week is Awesome
Yesterday was actually warm enough to no wear a jacket just a t-shirt! That was most excellent. I got two coupons from a fellow for two free smoothies and then walking to the gym I found two more of these coupons! I go to the gym everyday and try to push myself really hard or at least be sore. I have been pretty successful in making myself sore lol. I have been eating spinach salad with strawberries in itlike pretty much everyday because for one it's super yummy and for two spinach is REALLY good for you. It has so many vitmains that make your skin and hair look gorgeous and it makes your body feel happy :) unlike eating something huge and greasy and afterwards you feel like complete crap. Also I have imersed myself in reading a bunch of books. I should read more often because it makes me so calm and relaxed yet unlike TV my brain is engaged at the same time and my vocabulary is steadily getting bigger. This is always fun because this one person I know who has a super limited vocabulary tries to make herself feel better by making fun of how I word things and it's like yeah I don't remember you complainig when I was helping you with your English essay last week! Little ingrate... lol and it's only Thursday! Hopefully the rest of the week is just as good! And hopefully the rest of you guys have had a slammin' week so far also :)

Fun Fact
There is something interesting I realized last night. Every single person I have ever gone on a date with or have dated is now going on a mission or is leaving for one soon. I must be such a bad date they have to leave town for 2 years just to get over it haha :) just kidding. I also like pudding and applesauce now and I used to not like it. And yeah well that's pretty much it so have a great day!

First Things First!
Every time I come home from Cedar this is my routine:
1. Run over to the fence and pet my dog and talk to him
2.Come inside and yell i'm home!!!
3. Hug whomever is home
4.Unload all my junk from the car
5. Proceed to destroy the kitchen
6. Watch storage wars
My parents dislike it because a destroyed kitchen is a messy kitchen. And according to them a messy kitchen is a "sad" kitchen. I feel like it's worth it! i produce the most awesome things in this kitchen. For example today I made a two layer chocolate cake with chocolate pudding and strawberries between the layers and on top! Pretty much a masterpiece folks. And now for my nerdy secret. I watch storage wars. if you don't know what this show is I understand. Basically its about grown men who bid on abandoned storage units. They purchase one go through it and see if they can find anything inside they can sell for a profit. I know it sounds super nerdy but this show absolutely FASCINATES me. I just love seeing what kind of crud they find in those lockers lol. I currently have 53 episodes recorded on our DVR and yup I have watched every single one of them. This is a formal confession. Also tomorrow is going to be awesome! I am going shoe shopping with my little brother and i decided we were going to go do baptisms for the dead. He isn't very excited but that's just too bad because we are bonding whether he likes it or not!!! So excited :)

Thanks For the Uncalled For Assumption
Yeah lol uncalled for assumptions. They are awesome. Like when somebody who doesn't know you very well assumes something about you thats pretty normal it's just them trying to figure you out. But it's different when somebody who should know you because they are your best friend makes an off-base assumption about your life. Story time children!! *Cue magical music reading rainbow style* So I was giving my best friend and her parents a tour of SUU yesterday because she is coming here in the fall. So we are walking and talking about something and her dad asks if I work down here and I said no but I have looked for jobs but not a lot fit with my class schedule. And then she pipes up and says yeah her parents probably pay for everything anyway so it doesn't matter. She is always saying little things like that about me too! And it irks me! Like she just assumes I have all this money to throw around and its like why do you worry or care about how much money me or my parents have? It isn't really any of your business anyway. I mean it's not like everytime we hang out I am showing off or making it rain or anything haha! No matter how many times I try to explain to her that I don't it obviously isn't sticking because she still says those types of things. And its annoying. Don't assume things when I have told you otherwise like a MILLION times lol.

The Eff List
Unlike a lot of people I am not from Utah. I can't remember te last time I was in snow before I moved here. And around this time back home its mildly chilly and spring is starting to well spring forth! I like warm weather like a lot so being freezing cold every stupid day for the last oh 4 1/2 monts is making me mildly depessed. I am usually pretty happy so this wild change of attitude brought on by the cold was pretty surprising. It gets worse though all this cold and slush and disgustingness makes me want to...swear! Actual cuss words not the replacements like heck and flippin and shiz. So I have just resigned myself to making a mental list of things that make me really ticked off. I call it the eff list. Thigs that make you think "oh eff" when they happen. Enjoy.
The Eff List
1.The cold
2.Shaving and gettig prickly due to said cold
3.Slipping on the patch of ice that takes weeks to melt in front of our apartment
4.Tons of the keyboards in the library totally suck. Hard.
See wat I mea here people i try to tpe ad ou ee a traslato to decipe it
5.Dishes
6. My math class
7.Being hangry in math class (hangry:being so hungry it makes you angry, symptoms may be caused by low blood sugar)
8.Coin operated dryers that take forever to get your clothes dry thus wasting many quarters
9. Person:Ehrin! Me: What?
Person: Ehrin!! Me: What?
Person: Ehrin!!! Me: WHAT?!?!
Person: Why are you yelling at me?
*strogly resist urge to punch said person in throat*
10. When there is no mail in the mailbox :( it's a bummer.
