The last time I visited the gym and did a full workout was September 21, 2010. :S I didn't work out at all during the winter break. The Sports Center was closed for some weeks but open for some weeks, but I should have foregone the "It's cold outside, don't wanna walk outside, coooold" feeling. Like I did yesterday. :P The exercise was good for emptying my brain and just focusing on my body and my music. However, my sore throat got worse and I had a hard conversation with Matt and my mom last night. I've been recommended honey with tea. I don't use honey in my meals....
On a good point, the college/somebody oiled the leg press machine so it doesn't squeak anymore! YAY! I wasn't crazy to try the machines at the same weights I used last time, except for the ones where I can't go lower (like the shoulder and chest presses -- those are the hardest one!)
