Oh hai fitness

I took the “Core” class and holy balls it kicked my ass! It was so fun though and I always challenge myself more when I am in a class atmosphere.

I went alone and it was still okay. It’d be fun to have a partner but I usually stay more focused when I workout alone, which is fine. 

Also I forgot my lunch so I had panda express today that is in our new University Center. It was kinda annoying cause I was trying to eat “all good” and they were out of everything healthy. Plus it cost me $7 of my treat* money.

Overall it was a good day. I studied spanish again and reviewed some comm theory slides for tomorrows class 

AND I didn’t gorge myself on everything (overeat) and I feel SO much better (being really full all day makes me feel bleh)
