1 and 2 and 3 and 4, get those sit ups right and...


So update: I did go to Six Flags water park with one of my friends for about two hours in the water park. It was an absolute blast, but because I was in the water park I didn't want to carry around my Camera. So no photos really and the ones I did take are lame. So What have I been doing with all my free time? You would want to know huh? I've been off for two weeks now and I was sure Id be killing myself by now, but I'm actually loving the relaxation. However, I have turned my attention to something...Fitness. I have hit another one of those motivation waves my friend. If you were 180 lbs or are, I don't know how you can not be motivated. I don't want to become the fat ugly wife which is a comingly rampant occurrence. No. Im 24 and I feel there is no reason I shouldn't look my best. i started a weight loss plan in Korea and was actually quite successful but, I didn't keep up with bloggin it, and right before I did. All my pictures, actually everything was wiped from my computer via a virus. I won't mention how it got on there in the first place. Ahem. anyhoo. In Korea I had lost 20lbs. As soon, as I came back though, I put it all back on quicker than you can spell FAT! So my goal is not only to lose the weight, which, thank God comes somewhat easily to me, but to get in the best shape of my life. i want abs, sexy arms, just sexiness. I started a month ago cutting my calories down to 1500 a day. Of course I didn't lose anything but It was a transition. This past week I cut down to 1360 calories a day, and worked out 5 days a week! Even though it was light weight home videos and hula hooping. This upcoming week Im cutting down 10 1300 calories and aiming to hit the gym 5/6 days a week. The goal is to lose at least a pound a week so that I can be 175/176 by October first. Small goals. The main goal is to be back in "just returned from Korea" shape by Decemeber when we go to Jamaica. I wanted to worout as a couple but there is just really no time. So, I guess I'm going this one alone. i also joined sparkpeople.com , which is a great site that counts up all your calories so you can really know what you're eating. So ... that's that. Until next time...

Fresh As Im Is!!

The title is inspired by Bow Wow's song " Fresh as I'm is".After my year long stretch of wearing wigs to achieve an image of beauty I had to cut my hair. My real hair underneath was destroyed and broken. i've worn my hair like this many times before, but I've never been feeling it quite as much as I am now. I've never worn it with so much confidence. Im considering dreads next but, I like it like this too. It's so funny to me but, my hair changes are always in line with major life changes. i had my husband cutg my hair a few days aftger we were married and it wasn't even intentional. so now for the debut...

Happier days


So after that little depressing blog entry I decided that I should post something on the days that I'm overjoyed to be married. Granted it is literally like week 3 but, since that last post I have been on cloud 9. I think laying everything out, even if it is just a website no one reads, is great for the soul. I've always believed life is what you make it. So why then didn't I apply that to y life here in MA. I don't know but, I've decided to change all that. I have to make an effort to be a little more social but I have a plan to do something fun every month. I have high hopes that this could turn out to be better than living elsewhere even. So i always lay out my dilemmas in a two choice option, like a book I read once.The book had 151 different endings according to what life option you chose for the main character. It was pretty cool actually. So option B is stay here, since we have a nice apt, good jobs, and family here but potentially be bored to death or make it great, or Option B which is move the following year, take a lower paying job in a major city, and see where that takes us. since we're working and have little time anyway I say we'll try option A first. Im excited to post about the potential excitement on the horizon. Next week starts September activities: Six Flags New England!!! I'll you keep whomever posted!
