What is it lately? It seems like whatever I want goes up in flames? I want to hang out with someone, NOPE! You've gotta work, or you're sick. I want to finally be on top of my bills and not broke at the end of the month, NOPE! You're actually be negative at the EOM. I want to be happy, NOPE! Screw you Angie!
I am usually just a very positive person. EXTREMELY positive, to the point where people ask me how the heck I'm so positive. But, lately I just want to shoot anyone who's being positive in the face. I'm ready to give up on being happy and start making other people happy. I'd be one of those people who thrives on other people's happiness.
It's so bothersome that I can't sleep. I don't want to eat. And all I want to do is scream at the top of my lungs that I hate everyone.
HOWEVER, I could have it worse. I know I could. But can I just for once be happy? Its not even really about the money, or the inability to hang out with friends. It is the sheer fact that it seems like everyone I know wants me to be upset. It seems like everyone just wants me to suffer and struggle.
Also, can I get a weekend off without asking for one? Like seriously? Or can someone I know at my job, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE(!!!!) stop being so selfish? I work my tail off too! I deserve to have my scheduled ROTATION off! Its company policy, thank you.
And that's all I have to say today <3
PS- I know things will get better :) I just needed to vent.

Guys! I just got my Sunkissed VoxBox!
Can I please just let everyone know that I am totally and completely spoiled by Influenster?
Look at these goodies!!! The products are as follows:
1 pair of Dr. Scholl's for Her High Heel Insoles: It says in the description of these little babies that they are proven to improve the way I feel in heels... Um. Yes!!! Thank the good Lord for finally allowing someone to make these! Can't wait to try them!
1 bottle of SinfulShine with Gel Tech technology in Alfresco: Super cute color and the shine is UNBELIEVABLE! I only did one nail... I can't wait to do a complete mani with this stuff!
1 tube of Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream Skin Perfecting Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 15 in Light/Medium: Hell yea! This is a thick tinted SPF BB Cream that really gives some good coverage! It has a slight scent though... so I'm leery about that. I never use anything on my face that has fragrance...
1 Set of Goody Ouchless Ribbon Elastics: I have wanted to try these for SO long! I have fine hair, but LOTS of it and so with some of the typical elastics my hair will get wrapped around the band and tear out... OUCH! I'm hoping these guys keep my hair from breaking and pulling too much!
For all of my new readers, I received all of these products from Influenster.com for testing purposes. I have received these products complimentary and will review them on behalf of Influenster.com. Go join Influenster and become an Influencer!!! Totally worth it!
On that note, I got a sweet little quote in my VoxBox that makes me feel like summer is really here even though it's been raining pretty hard here in WI--
"Palm trees, ocean air, sunkissed hair: the endless summer, take me there." - Unknown
Thanks again Influenster, Goody, SinfulShine, Olay, and Dr. Scholl's!
And that's all I have to say today <3

I went MIA l for a while... Sorry about that!
First, I want to apologize because I have been SO busy that I haven't blogged in a LONG while. So I'm sorry! I sincerely feel bad, but I got sick, went to California for DECA Nationals, then came back and was still sick, then I had finals which ate up my life for about two weeks, and just recently I had a tooth pulled which seriously, is the pits. Aside from that, I obviously stopped my 30 Day Shred... I feel like a huge lump and am planning on starting it over as soon as my mouth is completely healed.
Dentist said that my mouth will be ready to eat steak and chips in about two weeks. Thank god because this whole liquid and mushy food diet is NOT my kinda thing... I hate jello... I hate pudding... so that pretty much narrows it down to soup with nothing but veggies and noodles in it, noodles with sauce but no meat, ice cream (which I really don't mind :D), and mashed potatoes. What a gross texture combo. No lie, I am so glad that I have all of my teeth and can eat regular food just as soon as my mouth is healed.
On a less rant-ish note, I have become a DECA officer :) I'm super happy about that! For those of you who do not know what DECA is, it is a collegiate business club that offers life skills, career networking opportunities, and career development skills. We as DECA members, have the opportunity to compete in business like scenarios that simulate what may happen in the workplace. This club is exhilarating and challenging which made me campaign for the opportunity as Vice President of Recruitment. SO EXCITED! I wish everyone who reads this could be part of our chapter!!!
Next little blurb, this last semester of school went awesome! Upped my GPA for the semester which was my goal. However, it only raised my overall GPA by .01... which doesn't make the tiniest bit of sense... Oh well, that just means that I need to work that much harder next semester! I registered for classes :) I had to be full-time for insurance reasons and so I ended up taking an Introduction to Website Design class... WHA?! Who does that? This chick! Plus, it will get me an extra certificate... Which can only help me right?
Anyway, the real reason I decided to blog today- 52 Week Challenge Update... Updated! (For those of you who read my blog and know I already have a post called 52 Week Challenge Update.)
I have over $110 now in savings! It feels so awesome! This truly is the easiest way to save money! For those of you who have NO idea what I'm talking about, please read my blog post titled: 52 Week Challenge ....Confusion.... (from February) and also my second post about the 52 Week Challenge titled: 52 Week Challenge Update! (from March). Now... If only someone could make losing weight as easy this money saving challenge is... *cough cough*
And the last thing I am totally obsessed with-
Ariel Yoga... Has anyone ever tried it? There is a place nearby that is now offering it! I would really LOVE to try it! If anyone has any tips on this awesome sounding yoga sport, please let me know! Leave me comments!!! I want to hear what you think!

Day 2 = Sucker punched in the face!
I totally whooped day 2's ass! Pardon for the bad choice in language, but seriously, it was much easier today!
For all of you Shredders out there, KEEP IT UP! We will get through this together! I feel much less shaky today than I did after yesterday's session and I know that has something to do with all of the water consumption I prepared myself with :) So I was sore, and I know I will be sore tomorrow, but really, it will all be worth it!
How did I hear about 30 Day Shred? Well, one of my older sisters was preparing for a cruise and decided to do the 30 Day Shred, however, this sister hasn't worked out since... well since a long time and so she was so sore she couldn't function. It scared me! I hadn't really "worked out" in about 7 months! But, then I saw another friend doing it, and I did more research and found that I CAN do it. It IS possible! And like I urged in yesterday's post, HAVE A PARTNER! Make someone do it with you! You will keep each other on track, and it is always easier to feed off of each other's success and excitement!
So aside from being able to feel every muscle group in my thighs move when I walk, I am very pleased :) I haven't been this sore since my senior year's cheerleading camp... haha I guess that means I am working hard! I am going to make my older sister re-start Jillian's Hell on Earth workout. She can do it too!
A little over-motivated... I THINK NOT! I am just feeling good and know that I can reach my goals! SO CAN YOU!
Now I am going to go get a skinny mocha from Starbucks... you know, because that's always a good thing when you're trying to get into shape... *rolls eyes* Can't deny that I'm a hormonal woman that needs her caffeine fix when she's PMS-ing! (I don't know how my man puts up with it!)
And that's all I have to say today <3

Not as sore as I expected... Not bad!
So, I am not quite as sore as I expected from yesterday... I don't know if that is a bad thing, or a good thing... Do you guys think I didn't work hard enough? I mean my legs felt like jello... my arms were wobbly the whole night.
*sigh* I don't know! What have you all experienced during your 30 Day Shreds? Any new Shredders out there?
Let me know your thoughts!

My Thighs are the SAME size!!!
Haha so I decided to do the 30 Day Shred... or as I like to refer to is as Jillian's Hell on Earth Workout! YAY! .... I feel dead. Really dead. Like my arms are still shaking after 20 minutes of being done. But, I have a partner in crime! My little sister is doing the Shred with me too! It is much easier to Shred when you have someone motivating you! And besides, I have found my wedding dress and I don't want flabby arms on my wedding day!
So, Jillian is really motivating, and I only had to stop a couple of times during the cardio because my heart couldn't handle it. I know that sounds weak, but I have a very small heart for an adult, and I do have a heart condition. So, please don't think that I just really am a loser, I'm trying my hardest.
Here are my Day 1 Measurements:
Right Thigh: 24 in.
Left Thigh: 24 in. (haha I totally thought my thighs would be different!)
Hips: 41 in.
Butt: 43 in.
Waist: 31 in. (really sad about this. I used to have a 26 in. waist.)
Right arm: 14 in.
Left arm: 13.5 in. (don't laugh at my arms they are gross!)
Bust: 36 in.
*I didn't weigh myself simply because that's not what my focus is. I want to be toned. If I happen to lose weight along the way, WONDERFUL!*
I will post results each week and feelings toward the workout until the end! I truly cannot wait to see what all happens! My sister was able to start a little bit before me and she says that days 1-3 are the hardest!
I tried to upload my pics... but they won't for some reason upload. They were nasty anyway!
And that's all I have to say today <3

30 Day Shred???
Hey fellow bloggers/followers,
A friend of mine is doing 30 Day Shred by Jillian... Anyone have any input on it? I am looking to start slimming down for my wedding next May (2014 not THIS May... I would die!). I just don't want to not be able to work because I'm so sore from my workout.
As some of you may know, I work in retail and am on my feet for long periods of time and need to be able to move quickly from one customer to the next. If this is going to be like P90X and kill me, then I will not do it, however, the result photos that people have posted are quite promising!
So, calling all couch potatoes turned fitness fanatics! Let me know what you think! Shout out a comment down below and help me get in shape!!!
Also, if I go with 30DS I will keep you all posted with week-by-week photos and posts about my excursion into skinny mode... or less flabby mode... whichever you feel is most accurate!
