So yoga was kind of a bust today. The instructor was going so fast and I could follow her instructions cause she was talking like a damn valley girl recovering from a bad acid trip. ew. i found the old link to the video i USED to use but the link is no longer valid for the video. so sad. I love Hatha yoga. but today showed me how OUT OF SHAPE i am! I used to run 3 miles a day and could do yoga all day long. I could barely touch the floor today! I've gone from being able to put my palms on the ground with my legs straight and my heels down to just barely getting the balls of my hands down with alot of stretching in the thighs and knees slightly bent and hells wanting to rip up off the floor. soooo sad. what have i done to my body?! I'm almost ready to declare veganism to get back on my healthy regiment.
On that thought, I'd really like to take a nutrition class someday. I've always been interested in eatting healthy and how to go about it. Just wish I'd payed more attention in health and P.E. blah. the weirdness in me. i love it.
so lol i'm looking for a new job right? i Need one in the area (Acworth) that pays well and has benefits. but what kind of place like that would hire a high school graduate with only one year college experience, no real ceritifcations except basic first aid and a marine safety certification? i COULD be a lifeguard, but I am really uneasy being a stoner and being in charge of watching over people's lives. it's kinda why i quit the last time. my first rescue wasn't my rescue at all. the dive team was in practicing their dives during open swim (they shouldn't have been doing that anyway but we'd been looking the other way, literally) and when I looked the other way I heard a crack and a splash and a yell and this girl had hit her fucking head on the board and sliced her forehead open and was treading water and it didn't hit me immediately what had happened because of the water washing away the blood so she was kinda sitting there and finally she started bleeding visiably and by then one of the other dive members had jumped in and helped her to the side and sat her down, my senior guard cleaned her up and whatnot. yah. i got bitched out by the coach and i went into the locker room and cried for a long time and after that, i knew i wasn't cut out for that job. i'm barely able to take responsibility for myself. i'm not ready to take on other people's lives. no way no how.
on a lighter note. my dad recommended i try and get a job at a local NAPA GPC since he's worked for them for like...god forever and is now a manager for the second time (he quit the first time, stress and money) but now that he's back he loves it. I have grown up in napa stores almost all of my life, i love cars and learning about them. i'm great with geometry and numbers and mechanics so i think being in the shop would be a good chance for me to finally learn all the mechanics of automotives that i've been dying to know. (dad never had time and neither did i really) I'd just want to do counter work for awhile, but once I got to know the area I wouldn't mind being a delivery driver. it'd be cool to be paid to drive around. and i've got a good driving record so that'd be a plus. and they have benefits. i'm calling the local one tomorrow after work.
speaking of work. i got written up again today for the second time in the month and a half that i've been at this place. fucking retarded i swear. it's because i keep coming in like 2-15 minutes late every now and then because a) my job is half an hour away from my house b) they schedule me to come in during rush hour! and c) i don't have my own car and rely on other people to get me to and from work. so while my primping does affect my time of departure, there are so many more odds against me that take things out of my hands. i don't know. i'll just get my shit together and get in on time from now on until i get that other job, and just ride this one out as long as possible. shit, i get tips and free food and free golf. i wouldn't mind keeping it around for as long as possible. but yeah.
i'm setting goals for myself right now
1) Get on a vegetarian diet
2) limit cigarette smoking to no more than 5 a day (big difference believe me)
3) start doing yoga atleast once every other day
I think three are good for now
once i get those down consistently i'll start working on my mind
may the force be with you! haha night

It sucks not having a car. I know what your going through.
Vegetarian diet? Why you look fine. But either way its supposed to be healthier but I doubt it. I took a nutrition class. It was very interesting but I would not suggest dieting without talking to a nutritionist. You might want to cut out smoking altogether. I am a reformed smoker as of 01/07/06 and it sucks. I want a fucking smoke every goddamn day. But its just saying no. I havent had a smoke (save for a crappy cigar) since I decided to quit. You will feel a lot better and have more energy. I didnt use my excess energy to do much but sit on my ass and watch more tv!
I tried yoga once. I thought I died. Its hard to do that.
Anyways cheers.
