The Benefits to Pain - No pain No Gain

I feel amazing, yet simultaneously, like death.

In the past 24 hours i have had more exercise than in the past month!

Last night, on account of it being my first Tuesday home since September, i spent the evening in the gym. Then following my 35 minute run on the elliptical, i joined my fellow dormies in an intense game of volleyball for over an hour.

Today, owing to the extreme temperature, Krysta and i decided to go on a rollerblading excursion (due to the amount of time it had been since either of us had last bladed). It was then that i realized just how completely out of shape i am!

Oh how sore i was after that, yet Amanda still managed to drag me out on a walk. And what an amazing walk it was, past a number of houses people and (much to Manda's disgust) dogs.

We also 'met' the family who lives in the 'ugly house' on the corner! (from the front it is not as hideous as i had first anticipated)
It was a good time, yet i feel i will most definitely regret it tomorrow. My leg and butt muscles are already yelling at me to slow down (which at the moment is somewhat impossible due to my motionless position on this computer chair).
If my new habit of exercise continues however, it will benefit me greatly, especially if we are truly to join the swimming team next year.



-it has all begun to improve for i have just received chocolate cheese cake front he girl down the hall!-


Manda, what if we remain in this situation all through our university experience?

We will most definitely not remain in our present state all throughout university. If we do however, we'll pick an animal, and be the crazy girls with a lot of them.

hehehe no one understands except us.

It was more of a nervousness than disgust;)
