Breathing Room

Svelte

Whew! I just got back from the gym like 20 minutes ago and it really feels good to work off stress and burn some calories. I started going regularly about 9 months ago with a friend (which I strongly suggest is the best way to start) and I go at least 3 times a week (I try for at least 4) and I love it! I used to play 3 sports in highschool and I played tennis briefly in college but getting back into serious exercise really does a lot for my ego.

I feel so accomplished coming out of the gym with my gym bag slung over my shoulder, water bottle in hand and earphones hanging out of my ears. Its like being a part of an elite group that most people can join but end up quitting... seriously!

For Memorial Weekend we're going to Virginia Beach with another couple we hang out with often and I literally can NOT wait! I miss the beach so much (being from Cali) and I can't wait to get in the water and run in the sand. I do not just lay on a towel and sun plus that's not so healthy anyway. I bought some new stuff and my swimsuit should arrive Wednesday so cross your fingers that it'll look hot on me and its the right size so I won't have to return or exchange it. I have faith it will I have a good eye for my size.

Ahhhh, I love the Spring and Summer. Soon we'll be buying new bikes and you won't find me anywhere near my apartment because I plan to ride all over this city!

On another note I really need to figure out what I'm going to cook for dinner...its my week to cook and though I'm happy I don't have to wash dishes this week I'm not feeling very creative at the moment.
