Health and Fitness


Right, As i have a year off now I’m going to spend my time working out and getting myself into shape.

I’ll be blogging around the same time every week stating my weight and how much I’ve lost… even gained (>_<)

Hopefully this will cause me to be more motivated to get up off my ass and work hard.

Anyways, I’m going away this week.. actually tomorrow. I’ll be doing lots of walking, so I will watch what I eat too..

My aim is to be a size 10 or 8 before Uni ^o^

Starting Weight: 12st 4lb (172lbs)

I was walking home from my newly instituted afternoon walk and I found a penny on the ground. It was the perfect color of a somewhat brassed copper penny – that deep burnt orange color – and it was heads up. It made me think of my nickel, Phillip, that I lost, and it was heads up ( meaning the luck wasn’t yet all used up ) so I picked it up. I’m naming that penny Abe.

After I flipped him, he landed heads up, I twirled him down the road and almost lost him in the tall grass where he could’ve been shocked to death by a Raichu.

But I recovered him! Yay!

And I put him back for someone else to find. When I put him down initially he went heads down, which means his good luck was all used up on me, but I turned him back over so someone else could get the benefit of Abe’s good luck =)

Someone in England or anywhere else should send me a pet coin.

Meh, I’m almost out of time ( I have a minute left ) and I could’ve run to get home in time for my forty minute walk, but I’m pretty sure I’m okay with it being a forty-two minutes walk cuz, well, I don’t feel like running.

My new afternoon walks are an attempt to:
1. Get Tanner and,
2. Get Thinner.
Don’t know yet if either will work.

Home now, and two minutes late.

[ P.S. I decided that I'm going to check on Abe every day that I go out walking that way. I'll see how he's doing and make sure he's still there. He'll be my Penny-Buddy. =) ]

I’M SO SICK OF HEARING ABOUT SWINE FLU!!!!

Oh my gosh. It’s not some über disease of death that is going to wipe out the human race. “Many scientists were reaching a consensus that the epidemic was so far ‘relatively mild,’” – this is what Wiki has to say. It’s not like it’s bird flu which really did equal severe and über death.

It’s now about the end of the nation-wide freak-out. The powers that be forced the schools open again ( although it’s still excused absences so lots of people don’t care and just aren’t going back to school. ) and everyone has stopped spraying half a can of Lysol every time someone coughs.

It was still about the stupidest thing I’ve heard in five years. ( The one before Swine Flu was “Re-elect Bush!” )

So, I survived. I’m sure this blog would have been a lot more interesting had I posted it when this was happening ( ie – a week ago, when I couldn’t go see Wolverine because Krista was going to die from Swine Flu because it only affects non-LDS kids in movie-theatres after ten o’clock at night when they’re watching Wolverine. And they can only transmit it to fragile orchid-like students who are fulfilling their duties as friends. Hm. Right. ) but I was sort of… I don’t know. I don’t feel good. I don’t feel good at all.

But!

Good news = I don’t have Swine Flu, I didn’t die, the world is OKAY.

Did you notice we’ve had at least 60 views since yesterday? :)   That’s pretty exciting.

Okay, so I pretty much just sneezed the biggest sneeze ever!  I mean it was huge!  I got a whiff of the dust (lol, I think of you in this moment, Kiara) behind my computer and started having convulsions, almost!  I mean, it was like ah…ah… AH-CHOOOOOOOOEY!  KPHLABT!  You know how my sneezes are, Dru, but this one was worse.  It was so big my padre heard it from outside!  He came in and was like, “Did you just scream?”  “No, Dad, I sneezed.” 0.O  Man, it was so big and momentous that Britny called me.  “Did you just sneeze, Krista?  I think I heard it.”  I mean it was HUGE!

Okay.  So Dad couldn’t actually hear it oustide.  And Britny didn’t call me.  But I did make those sounds and I totally sneezed REALLY big.  Haha. :)

Oooooh and I’m five pounds closer to my goal.  Woohoo!

:Batman:

‘Cuz I know that excites you guys.

What do I hate more than being sick? Being contageous and being sick!

i have strep throat. arghgrhghhrh.

And we wouldn’tve known this if we hadn’t gone to a walk-in clinic today because OUR stupid new doctor guy was apparently busy in dallas and couldn’t see me. :[ he was nice and everything but blah.

The doctor we saw today was funny though.

My phone:

Phoneee

is breaking a little. It's a flip-phone, and the flip part of it doesn't flip so much anymore as it flops. (sorry it's just a link. too tired to figure out how to embed it.)

Anyway, the doctor picked it up and said "Is this a micro-phone or something? No pun intended. :D "

Mom, because I couldn't talk much, said "No, but it is broken a little.", and I picked it up and showed him how floppy the poor little phone is.

He laughed and said "Aw, looks like it needs some phone-viagra. D:"

it is soooo much of a bonus to me if my doctor is funny. well for me it's a bonus if everyone around me is funny, but anyway.

so yeah. I'm sick. won't be better until saturday at the earliest.

ffffffffffffffffffffff.

*¡Kiara!*

Went to my first yoga class today.  It was… interesting.  I don’t know if I liked it or not, the jury’s still out on that one.

It probably would’ve helped if I hadn’t eaten right before.  I kept getting light headed, and all the blood rushing to my head…  Blegh.

I guess I’ll give it one more try.  After that I’m taking that class where you step up on the step and then back down again.  And then you dance on it.  And all that jazz.

Oh no, now I’m going to be singing Chicago!  Agh!  And all that jazz!!

See, I sprained part of the ligament section in the back of my right knee, so I can’t play soccer until this summer.  Which SUCKS because my senior year, and I finally made it on the varsity team!  But can I play?  Nooo!  Then again, they’ve been losing HORRIBLY.  I sort of miss it, but I like having enough time to do my homework.  I mean, I even have a little time to do what I want (like blogging)!  But anyway, now my exercising options are limited.  They’re basically lifting weights, yoga, or swimming.  Lifting weights is boring as heck, so I’m checking into my other options.  Any other suggestions?  My only limitations are not cutting (like, sweeping quickly from side to side, or swift movements changing directions) and not sprinting.  GREAT, huh?  And it takes a lot to hold my interest.

Dru, Gaby, and Sister Hall said they’d all go with me next week!  Maybe that’ll make it better.  Being by myself was… egh…  Maybe then I’ll have fun, because I can laugh at the teacher with someone else rather than just with myself.  “Inhale…exhale…sweep the flowers, sweep the flowers!…And REACH!  Oh, touch that cloud, that one right there!…Don’t forget to breathe…”  Oh my.  “Now wag that tail!”  Uh… no.  No thanks.

Oh, your first time is free.

Picture of the day:

No girls allowed... You sure about that?

I have a flickr now. :D I like it, very smooth uploading.

http://www.flickr.com/people/keytothetreasure/

All I have right now is a bunch of pictures of my sister’s cats, two random naturey pictures and me in a bandit cowboy getup or something. So it’s not very interesting.

I might upload some older pictures, but I dunno, I think I’d like to keep my newer stuff on Flickr. A “new beginnings” type thing.

That or I’m just too lazy to hunt down my older pictures that I could put up there. Probably a mix of both.

Although, I dunno how many of us actually blog about it, but here’s a thought, Dru, maybe we should have a Flickr tag? I mean, we have facebook, Gaia, and things like that, but no Flickr. Although that could just double for ‘photography’… ah well, just a thought.

BTW, update on my leg. It turns out I actually broke a bone, but a very small one. And I didn’t actually crack it or scratch it or anything, but it’s still medically refered to as a fracture. When it got hit when I slipped it sorta crumbled a little, like a bruise but on bone instead of flesh. It’s not bad, I just have to not do anything strenuous for the next few weeks. Walking and standing are good, running, bowling, jumping, dancing, stuff like that I shouldn’t be doing.

Doctorman also thinks that I probably broke it in the way that I did due to a Vitamin D deficiency, so I’m taking Vitamin D pills now.  8D they taste nastay. but better than that antibiotic I was taking for something or another last year. They smelled like poop and tasted like bad broccoli. augh ew.

and on the note of poop and rotted broccoli, I leave you.

*¡Kiara!*

Peoples must think that i’m giving my self a quick, AWESOME makeover.
For example, Last Friday i had my eyebrows done proffesionally. Yesterday i had a tooth done and my eyelashes tinted. (they’re amazing, hehe i dont have to wear mascara if i don’t want to ^^) Today i’m having another tooth done >.< Then tomorrow i’m getting my hair done haha

In the words of the alpaca…. WHEYYYYYYYYY!!!

Lu’s trying a whole new happy healthy thing.

Christmas soon… i may have to upload a pic of my tree, just as dru has done… except mine isn’t naked. I decorated it good :D

Lu xx

I was given antibiotics because i have a really really bad cough, BUT now that i’ve finished taking them I can see that they haven’t made it better at all, if anything they’ve made it worse >.< Sorry to those i kept awake on Monday night.

I have a few other things to rant about, but i think i will keep them to myself this time. I don’t really feel like publically shaming haha (Even though i would not do that… just so you know)

I’ve recently started using IMVU again so yay~~!!! I’ve had an account there for like 3 years now, so if anyone has an account, add me or whatever, my user is KawaiiBlossom

I don’t know… I really don’t. *looks at title and sighs*

Well, I seem to have a fascination with school bathrooms ( which is quite disturbing! ) and as I was just there I thought I’d share some disquieting observations. And some good ones.

Remember how a little while ago I went all loopy over how soft the toilet paper is? Well, it still is that soft, which I think is excellent. And kind of gross that I’m telling you about it…

The disquieting is that there was a child excreting when I went into the bathroom and I was in my stall longer than strictly necessary ( I was txting Jon about the TAKS that I just took. Very muchly easier than I was expecting, but then I was expecting college algebra… ) and the girl finished and went to the sink, ran her hands under the water for less than five seconds and left. EWWW!!! I will probably touch a surface that her hands have touched sometime today.

No wonder schools are breeding grounds for disgusting diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis and dysentery! And the common cold!

lol, I don’t know. She may have been very busy or needing to go do something, so I’m not judging her. I’m just pointing out that I now know where all of the high school plagues come from. That and the fact that parents want us to come to school even when we’re dying sick.

I think we should have 4 day work weeks. That would rock. Because then we’d have a day for work, a day for play and a day for Heavenly Father.

*sigh* I guess I’m just lazy.
