THAT was supposed to be the Boca burger i was to eat yesterday at Bonnies. Instead, i had some a greek salad with what IM SURE was Kraft italian dressing (yaaaack). I was going to have a locally brewed hibiscus beer. Instead, I had a pint of coors light. But the company was good, even though the food was lacking, so the night was not a total miss.

Today's workout was a quick 30 minutes of cross-counrty skiing before a brutal 9 hour shift at work. (Though some people work there from 5am till 8pm, so I shouldn't complain. But I'm still gunna)

Plans for tomorrow include: - taking Zoe's spin class for the first time
- Using the cool elliptical at her fancy gym
-Dropping my CV off at Baton Rouge (I'm passively looking for a hostessing job)
- Hitting up hot yoga with my dad
- Going downtown to drop off more CVs, spend my chapters gift card, buy scott skates
- Going skating on the mountain with scott, then ordering chinese and watching the Town.
Happy New Year Folks!!

As far as my lululemon challenge goes ( 3 yoga, 2 spin, 1 run) I am going to fail. SO, I'll change the goal to 3 yoga, 1 spin, 2 runs). The reason im changing it is because I work thursday and sunday, saturday is new years day so gyms are closed. the only day I can spin is friday! oh well.

But, I did my second yoga class today at noon. It was a moksha yoga POWER FLOW. bru-tal.
I modified and I took a few breaks (30 seconds at most). I struggled, occasionally gave up, sometimes powered through.
Now im off to eat at Bonnie's, a vegetarian restaurant around St-Henri with all my vegetarian friends. Quinoa Taboule, here i come!

2011- lets try again




Its 2011, lets try this thing again.
This year I have some new goals...
Fitness-wise, I'd like to take up yoga again. There are several reasons this is my main fitness goal for this year. The first is that it is a bonding activity I can do with my dad, who is a hard-core hot yoga enthusiast (Actually yoga is a common hobby for several members of my family, including my grandmother, who practices twice a week at my university!). The second reason is that in the past, I've avoided yoga because its SO HARD. If its hard for me, I should try even harder to become good at it. I did my first yoga class in a long time yesterday. My goal was to complete the class without taking a break, even if I had to swallow my pride and to modified flows a few times. I accomplished the goal and was rewarded with burning pecs, shoulders, and abs this morning.

Academically I'm reaching pretty far this year. I just finished my first year of university this month, and I recently made a big decision. I've been majoring in History (which really is my passion, and I hope to get a PhD in history later in life), but have decided to switch the JMSB, the business school in my university. I'm hoping to get into the Co-op program, in which i would get the opportunity to work for credits and gain a lot of valuable experience. While its very very VERY likely that i WONT get in, I am still going to try. If i don't, Ill still transfer to the business school and start studying marketing (I still hope to get my masters in History after I finish my Bachelors)

This year I am also going to set teeny tiny daily, weekly, or hourly goals for myself that will help motivate me along the way.
This week I've been challenged (via twitter, by @lululemon) to do 3 yoga classes and 2 runs. i modified the challenge, and i hope to do 3 yoga classes, 2 spin classes (one taught by my cousin and roommate), and one run outside. Can you believe I've never taken one of Zoe's spin classes? Maybe I'm subconsciously afraid of what she'll do to me, I hear her class kicks serious ass...

Heres to hoping I can integrate into the blogging world I love so much, and that I can update every few days.

Ciao for now!
