Day 2 - Complete

Alrighty, so today was day two at the gym. First off, this is a HUGE accomplishment for me. I don't think I've ever been to the gym two days in a row and actually stayed longer than 20 minutes! haha. Well I did another hour of cardio and some legs, before the G said we should go since he didn't want to go to the women's preferred floor with our friend Lindz. So we cut the workout short today. I'm not planning on going tomorrow night, but I am going on a 6-mile hike on Saturday morning!

Yay for losing my belly and getting back my eight pack abs! :)

It's quite depressing...this is what I used to look like...pretty hot huh? haha. I don't look like this anymore. =(

Working out!

Okay...so it's been almost 2 years since I've been to the gym. I paid about $800 for a three-year membership and I only went about a dozen times. But tonight I went with the G and Lindz and let me tell you two years makes a difference! All new equipment and everything! Well, it also showed how out of shape I am. We went on the elliptical for an hour, but MAN after 5 minutes I was like...I'm not gonna make it! But I looked at Lindz and I said to myself...if she can do it...so can I....and you know what...I did it! I was wobbling all around but I did it! Then we did arms and abs...man I hope to get my abs back soon. Plus I've been tanning (both indoor and outdoor) and so I think things are getting better.

Haha...the best part...guess what we did after the gym? We ATE! I had a Manhattan sandwich and fried rice...so yeah, we basically undid everything. Oh wells...we're gonna try go again tomorrow. I just hope I can keep it up this time. o.O

Some People...

I used to tell my friends that they were crazy and it's all in their heads when they thought there were people placed on this earth just to make their life hell. I just used to laugh and tell them that there just are people out there THAT dumb. But the past few weeks, I've been realizing...hmm...maybe my friends were correct. There ARE people place on this earth with ONE life goal...to make ME miserable!

GAH! I just can't believe that someone could be THAT stupid, so they must be doing it on purpose!

Anyway...although my life sucks right now I gotta be a little thankful. I can always rely on my friends to make me feel better. Especially when I heard about my friends relative. They just found out that he's gay. He's middle aged and has a wife and kids! I'm just like, oh my gosh. Wow! I feel really bad for him and his family, but I'm thankful that I won't be like that. I mean, that I get to live in a time and place where being myself is "okay". I can't even imagine what he went through growing up. Having all these feelings but no outlet to express them because of the fear of being an outcast.

It's hard to believe that just ten years ago, you could have a horrible life just because you admitted you were a homosexual. And what about now??? It's scary because it's almost like it's "trendy" to be gay. I actually happy that I grew up during the time I did. It was right at the cusp of the transition. My early years it was shunned so I had to be more reserved and I still had to hide it. But my later years it started to become acceptable and I was able to grow a bit more. In the end, I remember what it was like and can appreciate the acceptance. I'm still humbled and don't flaunt it but don't hide it.

I just feel now, these kids are coming out of the closet WAY too early and are very "This is me, I don't care if you are uncomfortable with it...DEAL!" For me, and probably me only, I still have to respect other peoples feelings and if they're uncomfortable with this part of me, I can pull it back a bit. It's not all in your face. Y'know? Oh well...I guess either way is still better than the past and I hope that in the next 20+ years, the number of divorces due to a recently discovered gay partners diminishes. :)

Alright...so that's my rant for today with a glimmer of hope for tomorrow. WHEE~

The Happiness Formula

Termination of old T-Mobile contract = $200

Purchase of new 3G iPhone = $199

Economic Stimulus Payment = $600

Stimulating the economy, getting a new iPhone and having some $$$ left over... = TRUE HAPPINESS!

So it's officially announced. The new 3G iPhone is friggen SWEET! I'm getting all jittery just thinking about it. BUT, of course...darn Apple isn't releasing it until July 11th. That means I still gotta wait a month before I'll truly be happy!

I gotta hand it to Apple, they are freaking genius'! I thought I was a true Blackberry supporter, but with everything it can do...and for a mere $199 for 8GB!!! I will admit defeat and give in to the temptation. Even though I don't really care for AT&T...sorry T-Mobile...but you're just taking too darn long to launch your 3G network and you don't get good devices early on. =(

iPhone & AT&T here I come!

Incompatible!?!?

Alrighty...it's official! I'm totally and utterly meant to be alone! I thought it was only in my head...but chemistry.com provides concrete findings that I am totally incompatible with pretty much everyone!!!

Yup! About two months ago I signed up for chemistry.com to find my soulmate...well, actually it was because of this commercial:



But now that it's been two months and $100 later...NOTHING!! REALLY!?!?!? CRAP! I'll just die alone and leave my money to my cats and dogs. *sigh*

"I am alone...." (crumples paper) "I am utterly alone..."
