Been sleeping at my sisters house! (bloggin')

Been sleeping at my Sister’s house! (blogging)

 

So this weekend I went kayaking on Sunday and it was fun, I liked it and had a really nice day. Sunday night I went grocery shopping for my dad and it took for fuking EVER. God he has so much crap on his grocery list it’s retarded. I didn’t even finish shopping and I have to go again this week.

 

Monday I went to work as usual. At One Stop recently its kinda hard to be motivated here. Its like I want out of this place like…. NOW. I saw pictures of Mark Labella from his myspace and seeing all the stuff hes doing and pursuing his graduate program in medical school really makes me almost frustrated but very motivated to continue my education.

 

I REALLY WANT THE DAMN GRAD SCHOOL.

 

Anyway I went over to my sister’s house and an older family friend was there, and I was kinda bored so I went over to her gym in Rancho Penasquitos. It’s a very nice gym and I enjoy working out there. All the people there are kinda hard –core serious and don’t even make facial expressions while working out. Haha, but I did get a good weight training workout as they have every possible exercise there along with a huge array of free weights.

 

I went back to my sisters house, showered and washed my face with this honey scrub she has in her shower. It literally feels like Im putting honey on my face… weird.

 

Anyway I slept in her bed, and she sleeps with the baby so I stayed on the far edge. She has a king size bed, but still I was NOT about to roll over on this baby!

 

I woke up, and prepared a scrumptious breakfast and left to work.

 

Basically the same schedule yesterday,  I worked all day, went to her house, and  I went to the gym again, The funny thing is that the SAME people I saw on Monday were working out AGAIN on Tuesday lifting weights. I thought it was funny cause there most of them are like hardcore Asians or culturally devoid middle easterns wearing designer shoes to lift weights with like 30 squirts of whatever spicy ass cologne they wear. .. Very annoying. Still interesting to see how serious people take fitness up there.

Came back to her house, slept and got up again. I like staying at her house cause he fridge is stocked with tons of organic ready to eat food. I wonder how much she spends on groceries! Anyway I’ve been eating well because of it!

 

Last night I was sore from weight training for two days so I decided to just hang out, she had an other friend over (her friends keep on coming in and out I swear) and we watched slumdog millionaire.

 

Good movie, kinda violent. Makes me happy I didn’t grow up in a third world country that’s for sure.

 

Got up this morning and here I am! I’m gonna try to get off work early to see that fighter movie, we’ll see. If  not I’ll workout tonight since I took yesterday off.

 

I really enjoy this new habit I have of the gym. I generally sleep better in general and I’ve kinda redistributed my body composition in a relatively short amount of time.

 

I had an e-mail last week from 24 hour fitness requesting additional information about myself and times I’m available to possibly come into an interview. I hope I get a response soon!

 

I was thinking, about the grad school. If I’m attending school full time then I don’t need to make the payments on my student loans. I could stay at wawnesa part time and go to school again fulltime but it leaves me exposed insurance wise. I need to figure out my options, plus now that Im supporting my dad I don’t know if I can take that much of a paycut.

 

Bah growing up sucks.

 

Anyway I just felt like bloggin’

 

 

Later krakkas!

So on Friday morning I taught at Grossmont Center 24 hourfitness for the first 15 or 20 minutes of the class of turbo kick which consisted of the warmup and the punches section. I did very well! I am excited at the opportunity that Jeanette is giving me to practice in front of a group of people like that, and I intend to use that experience well! When I go again this Friday I intend to REALLY let some energy out and get those people PUMPED! 

After my morning workout I went to work and slaved away there, I got off of work a little late, but went and got a haircut, and then went and did my dad’s grocery shopping and I went all the way to the Ralphs in Rancho San Diego, cause I HATE the Ralphs in El Cajon.

I spent $200 on groceries for TWO PEOPLE, WTF!>?! 

Anyway after that I made something to eat and I hit the gym quickly and then went and slept at bisky’s and went to work in the morning. 
It was a busy freaking day at work, and I didn’t have any time to start reading my new book “How to be a personal trainer for dummies.” After work I went home and I ate with my dad, who happened to make a roasted ham and his potato salad with his famous baked beans. I ate like a hog and took a nap around 6:30 which intended to only be until 8 when I woke up at like midnight, going “ WHERE AM I ?!” haha. So I went online for about 20 mins and went back to sleep until 8 in the morning the next morning. 


On the way to turbo kick that morning I ran into a woman named Robin Osbourne, she had actually helped my dad get us from my mom when I was a toddler, I barely remembered her, but she gave me her number and asked my dad to call her. I wonder if he’s called her yet?

After that I went home, showered (since I’m stinky after turbo) and got my laundry ready to go to my sister’s house for Easter (The dryer is broken). I had fun at her house, and her new little baby is such an angry baby! Oh well newborns aren’t supposed to be fun! Alana was freaking hilarious and we got a lot of pictures of her egg hunting etc. We ate and I hung out for a while and then worked out at the Rancho Penasquitos gym and headed home from there.

Its funny working out in a different city, the people are always different. In El Cajon its scary gym rats and middle easterns, in rancho its trendy white people and RICH middle easterns, in Rancho Penasquitos its super buff Asian dudes that look like they are crying as they work out haha. 


After that I went home. And started work again yesterday.
Monday morning I had to call Wawanesa and turn down the job offer I got for an OCR position. It was sad, I really wanted it but they didn’t offer me enough money to live on. So I couldn’t afford it. I’m waiting for a customer service position to open up and I intend to apply for it at the first chance I can get. I am SO OVER working for John....

I taught all of round 36 on Tuesday night, and I am very inspired to do well as an instructor. I am anxiously awaiting Friday! 

I started reading my book “How to be a personal trainer for dummies” today and it’s a very well written book. I intend to enjoy my time reading it and hopefully with the book that bobby bought me about starting a small business I can get some clientele working! 

I am excited about the changes happening to my body and after only 3 months of weight training my strength has increased dramatically. I intend to diet soon to get a bit more shredded looking but I don’t intend to start dieting till may 15th. I’m still bulking up! I took a new profile picture today and it’s crazy to see my body change over 5 years. I’m excited for the future!

Weekend summary!

 

So on Thursday night I stayed up late practicing round 36 cause Jeanette (an instructor who trained me) told me I was going to be teaching the next weeks class, and I did not have any idea what part of the round I was going to do!

 

So I stayed up till like 2 am furiously turbo kicking haha, but it paid off! However I’m starting to get a usage injury in my right ankle that I need to take care of.  I bought an ankle supporter and am going to take it easy on it this week, no more turbo till Friday I’m just going to weight train this week.

 

So on Friday morning I taught the beginning of Jeanettes class and it was SCARY! There were so many people and my head set wasn’t on my head right and I added some extra moves on accident! But it was still good and I am excited for next week at grossmont center when I teach the punches section!

 

So Friday morning my sister started labor and headed over to the hospital, I was told not to go over right away so I got off of work, did chores etc then headed over there at 9. I was there till 3 AM, omfg and she hadn’t even started pushing yet! I had to go as I had to go to work in the morning … omfg I was sooo bitchy at work and the reps kept on having crazy customers call in. It was very frustrating and I just realized right now as I’m typing this blog I forgot to leave the letter for the division supervisor… ohh well.

Anyway after work I wanted to head over to the hospital but my sister was trying to get some sleep, so I went home and crashed as well cause I was so damn tired, as her baby wasn’t born until 8am, I slept until almost 10pm, and I went over to BB’s to watch the james bond movie that came out last year. The effects and action was cool, but the story line sucked. I still don’t even know what was going on.

I went to turbo kick this morning and Mike was the teacher, and of course I got pointed out haha! It was fun though, he had me stay at the front on the right side and it feels good getting experience being in front of a crowd. Im totally shy and I’ve GOTTA get over that lemme tell you!

After that I went home and showered, I was going to go to the hospital but ang was sleeping, so I headed to la jolla shores where I met my coworkers all huddled up at this beach shack renting kayaks, so we headed directly out and started kayaking as soon as I got there. They had a volleyball net set up earlier I guess but I guess they were told they had to take it down. Anyway I shared a kayak with monita  or (bon qui qui) haha. It was fun, and I got a great shoulder workout, I also got the chance to knock everyone off of their boat when they headed back to shore as monita and I were at the shoreline first. Sexy team work at its finest! I had to park INCREDIBLY far away and my spray sun screen was kinda broken so I kinda had to smear it on. I hope I didn’t get burnt or anything…

Anyway after kayaking for 2 hours they wanted to meet at the innout in mission, and I ate there. I headed to the hospital afterwards and got to meet my little nephew Judah Allan Presley, and hes a fussy little monster! I hung out there for about 4-5 hours and then headed to claudias house to get mayer a massage.

I hung out with claud for a little bit after her massage and then I just got home, gave the bitches some love, and I got in bed.

 

Im trying to do some laundry right now but I think the dryer broke….

 

So yea..

 

 

Anyway that was my weekend, I have a job interview tomorrow with OCR at wawanesa and Im pretty excited!

 

Later cabrones

Hate this economy! Seriously Right now I work 70 hours a week with my full time job sucking horrendously! Plus throw group exercise on top of that and I have NO FREE TIME! I mean really, all I want is like 40k+, benefits, and 40 hours a week. I have a degree, management, and tons of office experience and am technically adept and relatively well spoken! WTF WHY NO JOB! haha
