Day 30- One MONTH down... 2 more to go!

Wow. So far so good right? I have had my ups and my downs... but I think tonight was a big turning point for me.... I went to a Zumba class. It was fantastic. I mean really fantastic. I had so much fun! I can't wait for the next one. I am thinking about a hip hop class too. It's a fun way to work out as opposed to the dreaded treadmill which as I have said before was invented by a masochist. I love to dance. I used to dance when I was younger. Now this makes working out fun... and I think I found a stress reliever! ]

I am starting to feel like my old self again. The way I felt back in 8th grade. It seems like forever ago, but I think that was the last time I knew who I was. I know that sounds crazy as that I was only about 12 at the time... but sometimes you just know. I remember my 8th grade trip to Washington DC like it was yesterday. I remember my first crush. I remember when he sat next to me on the bus while we were on our way to another museum. I was in heaven. I feel like that now... only I feel that way when I look at myself. For a very long time I thought I had to be the funny one... or the one that "fixed" everything. My friends love me for who I am... and now that I finally get to share the real me with them...I think they respect me too.

The next 2 months I will still be in hardcore mode... bear with me friends.... I will be a little less hardcore soon.
