“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind” -Dr. Seuss
Thought I would start off my post tonight with arguably one of my favorite quotes out there. Speaks the truth, does it not? Anyway- today was a long day- but a good one! I did really well with my microbiology quiz and decently well on the physics lab quiz (messed up the last one…boo!).
I was pretty tired and did not really feel like going on a run or doing yoga (gasp!) but I knew if I did it, I would thank myself later. I left my garmin at home today and just ran for the joy of running and let me tell you it was BEAUTIFUL. It smelled like Halloween outside- cmon I know you know the smell. Sort of like a smoking chimney. The air was nice and crisp and at the perfect temperature. I studied calculus before yoga class and then went to my yoga class (which she made 15 minutes longer today for no good reason at all- scoresky!). Yoga was amazing. I loved every minute of it. She read us something about “body image” in the beginning of class (it is love your body week…did you know that?) and then said that there was a study done that proved that yoga increases women’s body image. look at that! how cool, right? I can certainly say that my body image has increased since I started yoga. Not because I look better but because I (a) appreciate my body more- for its capabilities and limitations and (b) I “know” my body better because of yoga. anyway….I came home and tried out a new Kashi Frozen Meal….
Taylor said she loved this flavor- so I was really really siked to try it out!
Mayan harvest bake: plantains, black beans, sweet potato, Kale in spicy ancho sauce
sort of kind of looks like mush but i tell you it was AWESOME. I can tell why this is Taylor’s favorite now. I had this with some seduction bread from whole foods (love that stuff!). good dinner. not huge but I wasnt very hungry at all so it worked out.
Then I headed over to starbucks to study for my Calculus midterm (and also ended up skyping (iming not video- I am not that rude!) my friend joe- he is in australia-studying abroad) Joe just got back from his “spring break” in australia- he went sky diving and white water rafting in the rain forest… and snorkeling. sounds like he has an absolute blast! Wish I was there. He comes back to america at the end of november I believe? I am excited for the abroad kids to come back- I miss them mucho! anyway… at starbucks I was able to snag the internet for free (woohoo!) and I got a berry blossom tea (venti) and ate a mini green & black dark chocolate bar 😉
Tomorrow is lunch date friday with rosina, meg, and anna 😉
Have a good night!!
