A little Health and Nutrition

So this year among everything else that is different in my life I joined the gym! Now while this doesn't sound like much it really is because i'm so lazy! I hate working out and I hate having to watch what I eat! My absolute favorite thing about food is candy! Anyway I decided since I've gained more weight than I wanted to recently, and that I would finally like to do something about it BEFORE Spring Break. So I joined a gym here in Auburn AC Fitness for Women (because I am not so comfortable working out with guys all around) and I'm trying to watch what I eat. As much as I want a personal trainer I cant afford it and my mom says hell no to paying for it for me so I have been looking up exercises to do at the gym online, because I'm the type of person that likes to at least LOOK like I know what i'm doing. :) So I'm gonna try and keep u updated on my progress (my goal is 10 pounds). And anyone with advice on exercises and things of that sort I'd love to hear it!
Also i'm taking nutrition this semester so that is also helping me with my new goals of becoming more fit and healthy. If anyone else shares the interest of becoming more healthy my teacher suggested this web site for better eating habbits and info on what to eat. http://www.menshealth.com/eatthis/best-and-worst/ Its called "Eat This Not That" you may have heard of it, it's also a book. Thats all for now!

A new year!

I'm obviously not good at this whole blogging thing! I'm i'm learning... This new year has brought me many new things! :) I have a new "friend" in my life and new classes this semester of course and not necessarily "new" freinds but good friends becoming great friends.
I couldn't be happier with the direction that my life is going. I don't think I've ever been this happy! I know people say that all the time but... yeah I really mean it :) Anyway for new year's eve my friends and I went down to Destin, Florida. We rented a little town house that was on the bay and it was beautiful. We had the most fun I've had in a while. And I can safely say this because 9 other girls and 2 guys went and there was not the first fight! Now I'm not one to argue about petty little things because I just don't really care haha.. but we all know how girls are! So having said that you should pretty much see where I'm coming from being surprised and ecstatic that there was no drama! Woohoo! Back to the point.. if there is one? It was just a really fun time. We went to several bars in the baytown warf and had a blast! For those of you who haven't been there you should go! And try Fat Tuesday's daquri bar! Yummy!

I also started new classes this semester as do all college students ;) and I have pretty decent classes. I'm taking Marriage and Family in the Global Contex, Global Consumer Culture, Nutrition and Health, and Survey of Life (Biology).. for those who don't know my major is Human Development and Family Studies (Marriage and Family Therepy essentially). I think I'm just excited that I'm finally done with my core classes and on to stuff that actually has something to do with my major. I love the whole disection of marriage and family.. it fascinates me! I really can't wait till I
can out into the real world and do something with it! (3 more years!) Not sure where i was going with this blog but I think i'm gonna end on that note! Thanks for reading!
