My god..it's FREEZING outside!
So..after a hard morning of working out in the gym.. and sweating all the precious Aquafina water that I had been drinking, I have come to one conclusion:
If there was ever a crazy stalker dude chasing me down the alley late at night, I'm sure I will just die before he would get to me.
It takes one good workout to realize how out of shape you really are. I haven't done something vigorous since...the summer? Yes yes...rollerblading down in Prince's Island Park. But I remember in my younger days, I used to be able to run down the UofC track 4 times easy, with a little hard breathing. Now? 3/4 of one track....and I'm a huffin and puffin, face beet red, beads of sweat pouring off my face, clawing myself to the finish line. This is a much embarassing feat for me....since I used to be known as "the girl who played every sport in junior high and high school" and had the endurance to outlast anyone.
Soooo yes. I think from now on I'm gonna have to commit my Thurs mornings to a-runnin at the gym. Of course, this is easier said than done. A little gene named "Procrastination" and "Laziness" often gets in the way of this goal. But alas, it won't hurt to attempt.
I also think I should maybe start playing badminton again. It was the pastime for me. After high school that love of it slowly drifted off. I really forgot what it's like to smash and clear, make the person run, and that crazy competitive edge.
*sigh* I think this damn Chem degree has drained all of my passion and energy out of me.
But yes. After this horrendous workout, everything was so dizzy and blurry, so something must be wrong with me. I figured it was my blood sugar so I drank some orange juice and had a sandwich. So now going up the stairs is not such a problem. See how unfit I am? I feel like a friggin old granny.
Speaking of old granny, those of you in Chem would know a certain Dr. Paul. He was at the gym today, but he came when I left. Thank god. That man would probably run me over on the track.
Anyways, on different side of things, nothing is really new. I passed my Inorganic midtern *yay*, but the hard shit is just coming up. Enviro is so boring, I just sleep all the time. And Comsci is more boring, all I learn are mouses and weird stuff that so irrelelvant to life, that I just drift off. Ohhh the priceless education that UofC delievers....
Come to think of it, I haven't played WoW in such a long time. I think I'll get my fix of it tomorrow night on Friday. My lv 22 Night Elf druid is coming along great..I think. I haven't played my mage in such a long time. Maybe I should? Eh. But I suck as a healer though. It's either I'm so wrapped up about myself that I forget to heal, or I am so worried about my group that I forget to heal myself. Either way, I'm pretty stupid har har! Ahh wells....
On a small note: If you are out there Brian...tell me what to do with your analytical text book!!! I had a dream last night that I was talking to you and you were telling me to sell it...HAHAHAHA...damn I'm weird.....but is this a sign?!
Anyways, I should go..be productive...and not let those 2 special genes get in the way of life. Toodles!

Kareeeen!
Its always tough when you start getting back into the work out routine, but I find that it gets much easier once you keep at it =) I know from experience - I used to not exercise AT ALL and would huff and puff after 5 minutes on the ellipticals, but then I became a workout nut and could stay on ellipticals for over an hour! But find something that you like engaging in so that you wouldn't see it as some sort of chore - otherwise, the need to procrastinate often reigns supreme ;)
Also, thanks for the support girly - I really appreciate it =)

Ooh yeah - I might have to train myself to exercising again since I haven't really done any physical activity since school ended!!
And the dog on the box most resembled Simon, so I thought you might like it =)

My text book....hm.....what to do with it....?
I guess you don't have the space to hold the book anymore, then I think you might as well sell it in the used bookstore. Keeping it would be a desirable option, but selling is would also be ok.
Life is boring as usual, model building these days. Playing WoW is not too good right now, everyone is dealing with the critical problem with warriors and rogues. Try to play priest, they are insane when they go shadow. I am slaughting those poor ogres again in alterec mountain. Poor....
