Well I would love to say that this past week was beyond busy with every second jam packed with something happening all the time. But alas, I was one lazy bum! I did work out more or less but I most likely could have stepped it up a bit considering just how close spring break is!! If I am being honest I will admit that at times it has been really hard sticking to healthy eating just because when you are surrounded by the choices that college gives you it is very hard! I am proud that I haven't gained any weight and I will whole-heartily applaud this accomplishment with gusto!!! The working out part isn't hard, in fact it is very relaxing and therapeutic in way. I am loving how my body will support me on with two points of contact-- i.e. when doing the side plank. I can't get over the fact that I very well could have the body of my dreams. However, I feel like I am also my own worst enemy because right when I get close to having a "perfect" healthy day I will sabotage it by doing something. Confession: I am not too worried about the eating piece of my new life because like I mentioned before it is just too difficult to eat the way I would like to when only surrounded by the typical college fare. I think what I am most looking forward to about my future body is when I can walk from the pool chair into the pool with out a ounce of self doubt!! This is my motivation, my mantra? "September 3, September 3, September 3..." This date is important because it is the day I make my debut as maid of honor to my wonderful sister. I will find myself saying this date over and over again while on the rowing machine. This adds to the therapeutic quality of the workout.
For some reason I can't get motivated about school and this past week I discovered that I have no qualms about missing important classes. I am not concerned with the fact that this is in fact costing me valuable points in the class. I think I am just bored by the classes. But with only two weeks left in this term I think I will just ride it out. I really am in love with the idea of pursing the art history degree, but I am also concerned that I will not be able to do it. But I most definitely need to get over this fear because I really love the topic. It's time for me to just pursue what I want without myself getting in the way of it!!! I am the queen of making goals and plans but lately cannot come up with the follow through, but the fact that I am here continuing with this blog makes me optimistic that things are on an upswing for dear ole Lauren Dennis!
By the end of tomorrow I will find out whether or not I will be living in my sorority house, which is a dream! The house is gorgeous, but more importantly I feel like for once I will debut into my true sorority self!! I can't wait!!! Fingers crossed, power of positive thinking I am pulling out all my good luck tricks!! :)
My colorful life moment this week? Watching the most adorable purple flowers trying to grow while being buried down with snow. It was the most precious thing of my life! I feel like these little violet flowers, trying so hard to grow but sometimes getting buried down by outside influences. However, what I learned from these flowers is that(as corny as I may be for admitting this) the sun truly does come out and melted away the sun and now these little guys have nothing in their way. GROW FLOWERS GROW!! I BELIEVE IN YOU :)
Cheers,
Lo
