you need to love them.


imperfections. people always point out there flaws about themselves, even i do.. and i need to work on that. WE all need to work on that. your going to live with these for the rest of your life... so instead of being ashamed of them, you need to start trying to love them.

imperfections.
> i complain- a lot
> i'm concerned about my acne, and hate when people stare at my face.. makes me feel like they are looking right at my acne
> i worry about what people think about me
> i give people attitude a lot
> i think everyone hates me, due to bullying from last year
> i am very sensitive
> i can't choose what to do in life, friends house, etc.
> i get frustrated very easily
> i loose my temper too... but i think we all have these moments
> i struggle to find the positive in everything that i do
> i over react//over think things
> i always think i'm going to end up getting trouble
> i have stains on my teeth that will not go away

these are not all of my imperfections, i do have more- trust me. i have made a goal to love all of them, and to also work on them. it's life and we need to accept ourselves... and to also love our imperfections.

fitness time.

it is time for the fitness post. yay. i am not going to be doing my summer fitness routine, because i don't have one. to me i believe that you should enjoy yourself during the summer... so i'm going to be doing my winter//fall work out routine. since i go to a performing arts school, they kick our butts with hard work outs that will make you sore for days. not even kidding. it's totally worth it though, because now i have a great amount of muscle. i also believe i got all this muscle from drill team, and just because i'm a dancer. 

drill work out//killer sandwich: 
run one mile every day
10 jumping jacks
50 sit ups
25 crunches
50 push ups
30 second plank
25 burpees
20 high knees

the killer sandwich? well the killer sandwich is when we would do all those things, as many times as we could for 30 minutes. (besides the one mile run) we would do the killer sandwich once a week, and oh my gosh it was a painful experience. {maybe that's why i have such a hard stomach..?} we weren't supposed to have sugar the whole entire year... but i sort of cheated. 

school work out:
25 jumping jacks
25 high knees
25 triceps pushups
25 push ups
50 crunches
2 minute plank

we would also do pushups across the floor and yoga at the end of each month. the school work out isn't as bad as drill team... but it did make me sore from doing it EVERY SINGLE DAY. last summer i would do 300 sit ups every day... woah. i know that is a lot, but i really wanted a strong stomach- also a six pack. :) 

drinks:
DONT DRINK SODA. 
i don't drink any soda, and i haven't for probably.... well let's just say it's been a LONG time since i have had soda. i personally don't like soda, so it's easy to stay away from that. you should drink at least 8 cups of water every day... and i hardly ever drink water. i don't know why, but i never come across my mind to drink water. 

drill work out drink: a.k.a the worst drink alive.
2 cups of spinich
2 cups of water
1 cup of whey protein
a squeeze of lemon juice
now blend that baby up! 

our coach made us drink that every single day. it is supposed to cleanse you when you drink it..? honestly i almost threw up the first time i had it. then i decided to put some strawberries and bananas in there, and it tasted like heaven drinking it. 


i hope this was at least sorta helpful and got some tips.  i do like working out, but not during the summer. have a great monday!

that moment.

you know that moment when you say "i'm going to start eating healthy", and then five minutes later you start eating crap food. well this has happened to me so many times. it's a challenge trying to eat healthy. i have told myself millions of times i would stop eating junk food... but of course that never happens. i end up sitting on the couch, watching re-runs of say yes to the dress and eat a whole bag of chocolate chips before the show is over. gross? yes i know it is, but i have a terrible sweet tooth. that sweet tooth should just disappear, then i could eat healthy for once. i can't help myself, the crap junk food is staring at me into my soul saying "eat me"..... oh it's completely awful i tell ya. soda- i hate soda, so drinking water is totally fine for me. when it comes to candy//chocolate... that's another story. 


//do you ever have that moment?
