Rewards :)

So week number one is DOOOOONE!!!!! finallyyyy! after that last post, I finally foundthe dude who helped me open my locker and got my stuff out. the ni had core strengthening-HARDEST PART YET!!!! the gym i learned to adapt to, the pool is kinda fun, and feldenkrais will be fun again after i get my hip fixed. but this?? omg i physically could not do it! I almost had another breakdown-not because i was overwhelmed, but because i was so flippin frustrated with how my body wasnt doing what i was telling it to do!

its called core strengethening, (Im just gonna call it CS, cause thats alot easier to type AND spell lols)but its really leg stengthening! We did alllllll this stuff with our legs, and not crunches whatsoever! granted, some stuff was incorperating the abs, but the majority was leg torture! We had to do 20 of these leg lifts where you're on one side with your under leg bent and your upper leg behind you and hyou go strait up and down 20 times. i BARELY made it to ten!! i mean it hurt so dang bad i was crying. we also did clams, reverse crunches, upside down toe touches, and a lotttttt more! i was fed up because i would be telling my leg to go up and it just wasnt doing it! by the time we did the stretching in the end to losen up, i was done. couldnt do one more thing.

And thats another thing that bothered me-arent you sipposed to stretch BEFORE you work out???

I walked home alone, cause alette had one more class. i rested for about 2 minutes, then got ready to go out with dad.

As my reward for doing so well the first week, he took me to navy piers, where we ate dinner at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., (suuuuch good food! the coconut shrimp was absolutely fantastic!)then we saw Avatar in IMAX 3D! there are not enough words to describe its awesomeness :) (although i DID have a headache when we got out, it was a little visually overwhelming. but soooooo goooooood!!!!) Then we went looking at the little kiosks of jewelry, and one of them had these cute earmuffs so dad let me get them! theyre pink and black plaid, (in a fabric that almost looks like a form of burlap, but softer and not quite the same..) and has a fake fur lining thats super warm. Then we had deser at ben and jerrys :D i had soooooo much funn!!!

I am now going to go collapse...Ive been on the go since 6am!!
