Wheeee!
I was reading an article in my mom's Vogue magazine about Cameron Diaz. She was talking about how ever sense she was little she had always been really tall, lanky, and just skin and bone. She had always desired curves that she had never been given. Then she went on to talk about how being in the Charlie's Angels movies and having to learn karate and during intensive training had given her muscle she had never had....which was ALMOST like curves. Ever since then...she's been active.
I want to be like that. Last year I gained 20 pounds from eating....not just snacking....but loading it all in...and all the time. So...it's my goal this year to get back into shape. My mom and I talked about this over spring break. It's official...we're both gonna lose some weight. She and I both have bigger thighs then we've ever had in our ENTIRE lives. Not to mention our sides...haha. My mom makes me laugh a lot.
I also now have ankle braces so I don't hurt myself while running. (Except for my knees....they still kinda kill)
So tonight I went out on my drive way...and just danced. Nothing really in particular...it just felt good. There's always some sort of music playing in my head and tonight I just kinda did...whatever. It was pretty funny cuz whenever a car came by I'd start doing jumping jacks or something. I've decided I really want to take up ballroom dancing...or swing. I hear swing's really easy. I know a little...but nothing that impressive. I can waltz...pretty awkwardly...but nontheless. I'd LOVE to learn salsa, and tango...I also want to take a modern dance class at Audra's....if I only had more time. *sigh* At UofI there always advertising dancing lesson by the elevator I take to go to my lesson. I'm thinking I'll take a few since I won't have speech in college. (the only downfall of going to UofI...well..if I make it in, that is.)
Man....I'm really hot, though. It's really cool outside but just jumping rope 300 times will do that to you, I guess. I'm ready to turn on the air....
Oh yeah...Rhiannon did finally make it over and she surprised me with a Darcie! YES! Best surprise EVER! We all watched SAVED! together and ate some great food...and Rhiannon christened my carpet with water...I'm so glad that it's FINALLY a carpet. Then, while Rhiannon ran to get a towel...Darcie and I just kinda looked at it...and then had a water fight....Woohoo! My carpet repels liquid...flippin' sweet! Oh yeah...I hope you skin feels better Darcie...hee hee...only you me, and Rhi know what I'm talking about! Oh man....well...I hope you two had as a great a time as I did!
I think I'm going to go practice now...hopefully shave my legs...they're really kinda gross. haha...I'm sure you're all glad that I shared that info.
Good night, all. Have a wonderful evening...and a grand tomorrow.
