So October you say ..well I look forward to making a road trip to Chi town then! I would tell you to have a wonderful new year but I think you already got that planned!
Someone will be having an awesome year. Good luck with the state board exam. Will you have to take it again in Illinois & Hawaii or does your certificate transfer?
Think about investing in a pack of protein shakes. Target has some good ones like "Evolve" or "muscle Milk". The vanilla tastes pretty decent. They come in 4 packs. You need to drink it within a half hour of your workout and I swear they work so well for me.
I've been working out for a week. Weight training and cardio. I almost feel like new the next day when instead I could be in a bunch of pain from the lifting.
Also, if you have general questions about living on Hawaii, let me know. I lived there for about a year in 2009. Sadly though I never made it to Maui.
You have had a lot of changes in your life, and sounds like a lot of great things yet to come, great for you!!!!!!! I wish I could go to Hawaii, I will some day What will you all be certified in when you are done with school?
