So here's a question - is yoga supposed to completely kick your ass? Not to mention any ability I had to balance was left in high school - I'm sure the people in the apartment below me love me for flopping around during brief interludes at 6:00ish in the morning. Maybe they're deep sleepers?

First test is next Friday - the semester is really sneaking up on me fast. But if I pull myself together and do well on the first round of exams then the rest of the semester will be manageable.

I love how I feel after Yoga - it's this deep seated relaxation that doesn't fade for another couple of hours - everyone could use those moments in their lives. I was even content with my beyond annoying psychology teacher yapping on about overly simplified topics.... "We can see which areas of the brain are active by the blood flow. Does anyone know why?... yes, that's right, just like exercise when our brain works it needs oxygen" How would you ask a question about that? I guess I'm biased because he embarrasses students regularly - He decided to pick this girl out of the back and try to embarrass her to the point that she would move closer next class period (explain to me the logic with that? If I were that girl I'd just ditch next time). Plus he constantly misspells words in his power point presentations... /bitch fest

I hope that I don't have a personality that students hate if I decide to teach for while - I'd LOVE to teach anatomy but that might be because my anatomy teachers are freaking awesome. They are enthusiastic, intelligent, confident, and down to earth. Plus they all seem to form close relationships with several of the students.

I don't really understand this world. This is the one life we have and no matter what there are always options - I see so many of my friends sad, discontent, looking for something else. I guess it's this culture - we are trained to want more... but when is anyone going to be happy with the present moment - with what they have? I liked yoga today - it was a session focusing on contentment and realizing every action will affect who you are in the future and every past action affects who you are in the present moment. Being sad isn't a choice - but where you have the choice is taking actions that are going to put you in a better situation and make you happier with yourself. I always attempt to eat healthier, exercise more, choose actions that will lead to me things that I want to do and situations where I can help others. I guess I'll have thing sit and ponder the ideas a bit more. It just seems like life is too short not to smile and laugh and love yourself.

Andy and I have been taking the afternoons away from each other and hanging out around 7-8 (I attempt to get to bed by 10:30 even though it hardly ever works out) - we've been watching Buffy around 9:00 nightly (I'm happy to say we are on episode 5 of the 4th season! So excited!) and it's been nice.

Okay before the rambling gets too rambly... I'm off! :)

yoga, sore, andy, friends
