determined to prove him wrong

I've been feeling pretty lazy lately - probably due to the blah weather we've been having. First it rained for two weeks straight, then we had a heat wave, and now it's unfortunately back to rain. I needed something to give me a little boost of energy and get myself in that feel good spirit.

Now, I like to spend money - not necessarily on stuff I need, but just stuff I want at the moment (big problem, I know). Well... I was at the store a few days ago and decided I just needed to have a yoga mat. Never in my life have I done or even thought of doing yoga; I barely ever exercise! The BF tried to talk me out of it like everything else, but this time I WON!

I insisted on showing him that it was a good purchase by exercising that night. This was the first time in a very, very, very long time that I even tried to exercise, but I had to prove the BF wrong! I was determined.


I've had the yoga mat for about a week now, exercising every night, and I realized that ever since I bought the mat, I have felt so much better about myself and my body has felt amazing. I never thought that stretching would make my body feel as good as it does, but damn it feels incredible! I've always wanted dancer's legs - they're thin, toned, and perfect! Now that I have my yoga mat, I'm totally into exercising and working out (maybe I'll even get those dancer's legs without dancing? Yeah right!). Either way, I love it! In your face BF! I love him, I really do :)

Look out world, you're getting a new me!

  1. Hello :) I just found your blog! You're funny & I love your little drawings you do for each post. In response to this post...I have always wanted to try yoga but I never quite got around to doing it. I heard several times from people I know who do yoga that it is REALLY good for you. Apparently you can get super sore from it. Kinda cool, huh?

    xoxo

    Stop by sometime!

  7. I would love to get back into exercising, but I just don't have time right now! I love the endorphins that are released every time I do exercise and I miss them. :)

  17. Love the post! Gotta love proving that special someone wrong :P

    And yes-- IKEA furniture is amazing AND cheap! Best of both worlds! And thanks- the comforter came from Bed, Bath, and Beyond. We walked around the corner, saw it on display, and immediately knew it was ours. After stressing over other comforters for seriously months haha!

  19. I am the same way. I had never really had any interest in yoga until some friends of mine raved about it. I went out got a mat and every time I do it I feel fantastic! Crazy how it calms you down but works your little butt off!!
