I Might Die...

I have taken on an impossible task.  I have decided to take on P90X like it's nothing.  LIke I'm a pro athlete. Like I'm going to the olympics or something! I think I might die!

In all honesty, I'm two days in and I'm a little sore.  I think I'm dying while I'm actually doing the work outs but when I'm done and covered in sweat I feel so accomplished! Being sore the next day is like a present saying, "HOORAY! You did it! Now suck it up and do it again!" I haven't started doing the ab ripper yet though so we will see how that goes... (My abs hurt already and I haven't even done the ab ripper yet?! I'm going to die.)

Anyway, I'll keep kind of a journal type thing on here which will consist of my whining a lot and wishing I could stop and trying to keep motivated.

Wish me luck!!!

Holy Ostrich!

This has to be the best "Item of the Day" I've seen on hellogiggles.com in a long time! Seriously, this is crazy awesome. I can't think of anything else I would want during class; especially with 8ams every morning.  Anyway, here is the ostrich...

PS: I know I haven't been posting frequently, or much at all really, however that will change because I have many crafty things to post.  Seriously, get your hot glue gun ready!

Grades? Nobody said anything about grades!

Well.  It's been six days since I was last on here, so I figured it was time to put my awesome thoughts on paper (or computer screen) again for anyone who cares. i.e. my dad.  Let's face it, he's the only one who reads these, but that's not going to stop me from writing as if a whole, lets say, two people were reading this.  Or maybe more, who knows?

Anyway let's get to the point.  Forewarning, I'm going to ramble a lot in this here post.  Ok, well, I do that in every post so you're used to it.  I'm going to be rambling a lot about grades and how annoying it is that our professors don't post them on the website they are supposed to post them on.  That is the very purpose of the freaking website!! Drive's me nuts!  Why have the thing there and running if nobody is going to use it?  I WANT TO KNOW WHAT MY GRADES ARE! Is that too much to ask for?  I think not!  I mean I'm half way through my first semester of college, I just had my first midterm this past thursday, and I have no freaking clue as to what my grades look like! ANNOYING! FRUSTRATING! And any other moderate to severe pissed off word that could be used as a one word hashtag on twitter!

Ok, I think I'm done because I have homework and all this rambling isn't going to get that done, which won't help my grades, no matter how bad or good they may be.  Ok let's face it, they are probably pretty good because lets face it... I'm freaking genius!

Life Starring Me

Ever feel like you're starring in your own movie?  I have.  Especially since I've been here at the Treat.

I was walking to class this morning listening to my iPod and got the feeling I was just the character in a movie on the big screen.  I don't know why, but I just felt like life wasn't real at the moment.  It must have been the stillness I felt walking through campus at that moment.  Or maybe the realization that dreams come true when you least expect them to.

I was thinking about this realization while I was walking back to my dorm from my math class a few minutes ago.  I'm still amazed that I'm where I am right now.  I mean, this place (college, not necessarily Montreat) has been a dream of mine for the past several years and now I'm living it.  I'm astonished everyday that I'm lucky enough to be here, especially on a volleyball scholarship, which also happens to be a dream come true for me.

Maybe this absence of reality is just the pure joy I feel everyday when I wake up,  even if the alarm is screaming at 7am.  I found myself smiling uncontrollably as I walked through campus this morning for no reason.  For all I know it could have just been the song playing at the moment (Maybe by Everly), which is playing as I'm writing this.  But, me being me I have to believe that it was just a good moment with me, God, and the music playing in the background.  Either way you spin it, it was a good time where I just basked in the beauty of living out my dreams.
