Thursday Thoughts

Good Morning everyone!!! I hope you’ve all been having a good week, mine’s been… alright. Haha studying and lots of stress, BUT I’ve gotten to see some friends a few times, so that’s always a highlight. Anyway, I have phyiscal therapy soon, so let’s get on to today’s Thursday Thoughts!

1. I’ve had some obnoxious blog issues, I couldn’t access my blog or dashboard all Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning. Turns out it is the internet in my apartment? I went to my brother’s apartment to post on Wednesday (and see molly…). In case you had similar issues and missed anything, here’s my recap from my weekend in Charleston, and yesterday’s WIAW Grocery Store Staples.

2. I love when Kelsey’s posts begin like this:

3. On Thursday I went to Yoga Loft with some of my fellow blogger friends to try out a class that Kelsey loves. It was only 45 and the time FLEW by! Our instructor was so enthusiastic and really kept our energy up. It was called Yoga Core Sculpt, but incorporated cardio moves to keep our heart rates up and PLENTY of core. We couldn’t stop tweeting about it…

4. After Yoga Loft, we went to the Protein Bar and I got the Spinach Pesto Bowl (with chicken). It was SO GOOD!!!! I love pesto.

5. I won some Teavanna Tea from A Dash of Meg and it came yesterday! It’s a berry-peppermint flavor and I love it! I’m trying to find some new kinds of peppermint tea for my stomach.

6. I finally dug all the shoes out of the bottom of my closet. I’m pretty sure they’ve been multiplying in there… I had NO IDEA there were this many… Back row is donate/recycle, front row is keep.

A) Probably had these since High School, these were my wear when I knew they’d get dirty shoes

B) I had no idea I used to own Mizunos! First pair of “running” shoes during 1L

C) Adidas – too wide in the toe box, learned I was a narrow.

D) Brookes – I remember liking these but one of many pairs that blend into my memory

E) Saucony – same as above

F) Asics – got me through most of marathon training!!! Hard to say goodbye.

G) Newest – Mizunos

H) Brookes – sent to me by the company, I haven’t had much of chance to run in them but I walked a lot in them, little wide in the toe box despite being a narrow

I) Marathon Shoes. Might save these forever… Shadowbox? haha

J) Reeboks – got from attending the Healthy Living Summit

K) JAZZERCISE SHOES! Yes, Rykas are sold on the Jazzercise site.

7) Speaking of running shoes, I tried running again yesterday for the first time in forever… Didn’t go great at all. I stopped at 3 because I could feel both my IT bands start to act up, I also ran/walked it. It was frustrating. My hip hurt and my feet felt so off: my right foot felt padded and good and my left foot felt like there was no padding in my shoes… Recommendations? Doctor types? Help.

8) On Tuesday I never left my apartment. I literally locked myself in until I finally finished my research paper at 8pm. It was awful. There may have been a 3 hour window of watching Dawson’s Creek and rebelling against school. But I got it done.

When I sit down to write a research paper for my seminar class.

At first:

Ten minutes later:

Spot On.

9) I found this quote and felt it applies to finals (and everything). It basically says you get out of life what you put into it. So I need to put some good, hard work into studying for 1.5 more weeks if I want to do well, almost done!


Do you have a hard time buckling down and getting work done? I think this is called senioritis…

Do you have all your old running shoes?
