Hello Lovelies, I hope everyone is having a great Friday. TGIF!
I finished my paper earlier than I thought last night. It ended up being around 10 pages worth of dense history analysis. In a weird way I actually enjoyed it since it was a change from all the sciences I have to take (I’m studying along a biological medical route). One of the most satisfying highs in the world must be holding a freshly printed essay that you’re happy with. Who needs drugs when you have finished essays? Yum.
Ohh baby!
Kyle also brought me some dinner from a new teriyaki restaurant so I could eat and work at the same time. What a gem. 😉
A whole lot of good up in herrrrrr
This morning after going to my history and chemistry class, I hit up the gym for a mid-day workout. I was feeling really uninspired after learning from the teacher that our class average for our chemistry midterm was a 49% (seriously?!) and was not really looking forward to moving. I told myself to just get in some cardio for a little while and if I wasn’t feeling it, I could leave. Well, about 15 minutes of getting on the treadmill I had a complete change of heart (hello endorphins!) and started jamming out to my playlist and kept singing that one line from Thrift Shop “This is f*cking awesome!!”. I ended up doing intense incline walking for 45 minutes and almost didn’t want to stop since I was enjoying it. I had to get in my strength training though.
I completed the following strength training exercises:
- Squat with Press: 3×10 with 50 lbs
- Wide-Grip Lat Pulldown: 3×10 with 80lbs
- Bicep Curls: 3×10 with 15 lbs
- Dumbbell Shoulder Press: 3×10 with 15 lbs
- Deadlifts: 3×10 with 85 lbs
- Tricep Dips: 2×20 {bodyweight}
- Jump Lunges: 2×30 {bodyweight}
- Seated Row: 3×10 with 70 lbs
Since I upped a lot of my weights, I can already feel the soreness starting to come… I love it 😉
Lunch was some cous cous with grilled veggies, a big ol’ hankering salad with tuna, and a burrito that I was too excited to eat so I didn’t snap a pic 
After lunch, I took the most satisfying nap and then worked on a study calendar for my upcoming finals. I’m one of those anal people who need to have structure and could neverevereverinforever go into a test unprepared. (I would die.)
The plan for the rest of the day is to get the work done that I have set on my calendar to do and maybe go out with some of girls to some parties.
