well today i am finishing up packing, cleaning up my room, and then having dinner with my family tonight. I stay at the hotel tonight and then head to MEPS bright and early. After a wonderfult time at MEPS i get to spend the rest of the day at the airport til my flight comes in. And then im off to Missouri. I have been ignoring the fact that im leaving for the last 2 weeks, but last night it hit me and i kinda lost it. But i woke up this morning and i was perfectly fine. haha for this hour at least. lol. Well i guess this is my last goodbye. See you all in 19 weeks! HOOAH!!!

so i got the 24hr flu thing, and i must admit i thought i was going to die. i literally could not move, i spent an entire day on the couch and have never been in so much pain in my life. i never thought the flu could feel so horrible, but the aches were killer. if i had to get up to pee or puke i had to crawl there… it sucked to say the least. im just super glad that woke up this morning feeling better becuase i leave in a week to date and i cant imagine having the flu going into basic, and they might not even let me go, and i dont want to wait anymore. i want to go do my time, and come home. Im nervous but only for a few things. not looking forward to the gas chamber, but who is, im also nervous about repelling i can just see myself flipping upside down and landing on my head, and then im kinda nervous for marksmanship. if i dont get 23 targets i dont graduate, and ive never shot a gun in my life, so im going to pay attention and hope for the beswt i guess. well im going to take it easy again today and kinda let my body recover from the aches and this also gives my muslces time to recover from my workouts. so i guess thats good.

so the biggest loser is my new favorite show (after american gladiators of course, lol) but i like it because of what they are doing. They are taking a large group of people and making incredible changes and they are losing so much weight and really changing their lives. Which puts a nice dent in our obesity issues, As an aspiring personal trainer i look up to jillian michaels sooo much, shes rough and tough but look at what she has done for so many people. She has been a tool for these people to use to make such dramatic changes, and thats what i want to be able to do. I want to be able to watch someone change their lifestyle not only to look better but to be healthier. I love helping people on this site and at my gym. to be able to share my knowledge (which is still expanding) is fun for me, for someone to listen and then tell me what good it did is a great thing to hear. I feel that anyone can do anything. a 300lb lady can be a 120lb swim suit model with the right attitude, the right information, and a little bit of encouragment!So, back to the point of the biggest loser, i just want to be like jillian michaels, shes just such a raw individual and shes challanges people and takes them beyond what they thought they were capable. If i could be half as good as her i’d be happy. I’m also gald that after so many years of fumbling around to find a carrer thats good for me, i finally had my eyes opened to the world of fitness and personal training. i think or at least i hope i can do a lot of people good, and give them a happy and healthy body and life.

so im just laying in bed and i really cant move because literally everything hurts. my obliques are killing me, i feel like i tore all the muscles from my forearm to my sholder in my left arm, my knees are throbbing, head is pounding, i have a nasty knot in my back, and a small but painful tweek in my neck. my butt hurt, my boobs hurt, ok my pecs hurt, and even my eye sockets and arm pitts hurt–so basically im a mess. im not sure what i did today but it was something to make me feel as though i was run over by a tank, and then beat up my an angry mob with brass knuckles and then hit a few times by a bat as if i was a pinata at a birthday party. I honestly was in no pain leaving the gym, and even after i came home, took a nap, ran around and took a class at the gym i was still doing good, but now not so much… i guess my body was not a fan of the small changes i made to my workout today but it felt the need to let me know about it when im trying to get to sleep.. i love it. me and my body rarely get along, we are constantly fighting, lol. but even worse is when my mind and body dont agree, but then again thats actaully when the magic happens. becuase mind say do it, when the body is being lazy and says quit. when mind wins, body gets pissed and in the end who suffers the most….. ME- i feel all the pain and it sucks. so i will just lay here til i fall asleep and hope for the best in the morning

well after a lame holiday season im back to reality and reality hit me in the face with a big 18 today. Just 18 days to prepared myself the best i can for 19 weeks of being away from home at Ft. Leonard wood, MO for basic and AIT. Yep, im getting nervous and its shows because im edgy and bitchy towards my family and thats not cool but it happens, and thank god they understand. I swear im not a bitch everyday. lol. Training has been a little harder and more tiring becuase im not using NO-xplode anymore and a 2hr workout that i ususally do is a tad rough when you dont have a little help, and also when you dont have a good night sleep becuase you’re dreaming about being spider man,lol…. yea weirdest dream ever- i was spider-man; swinging from roof tops (im not a huge fan of height) . anyways, im rabling about meaninless stuff just to avoid the fact that i dont want to admit im scared shitless…. which i just admitted anyways. yup, i dont feel ready, i dont feel like im in shape, and im not sure im going to be able to maintain my cool, and keep my nerves of steel. I’m nervous about my finger still being swollen and i cant bend it all the way and im not looking forward to the food issue. I’ve been branching out and trying new things but its still very picky. I just hope that this wasnt the worst decision of my life and i hope to hell i dont fall plat on my ass. I dont know what to expect and that always scares me. I wont show it on my face, ill be an emotionless, fearless stone- on the outside but on the inside im like little red riding hood being chase by a big wolf with a drill sgt hat on yelling a growling, and breathing down my neck. Honestly i have to deal becuase i am stuck…. signed and dated and owned for the next 6 years. And there is no getting out… but if i could get out i dont think i would. im scared now, but i look beyond that fear and see myself at the end of all this and i see a better person, and it makes the nervous pervous act less intense, and i can finally go to sleep at night. I dont exactly know the point of this entire entry but just to get some mindless shot of my mind i guess. if anyone can give me any advice or give me some ideas of what its like or anything really- send me a private message and i will love you.lol… thanks i would appricate any insight!
