Hello! It has been way too long since my last blog. Thank you college for making my life crazy and hectic. But, I am happy to inform the wonderful world wide web that I only missed one of my workouts amiss a very crazy week. It's been almost a month since my workouts started and I am definitely seeing improvements. And if I could just stick to my diet (I am probably the worst dieter ever. It is seriously the worst), I would probably be seeing those results a lot faster. But I am perfectly content with the progress I have made. Slowly but surely is perfectly fine with me if it means that I can still eat and be happy. Today I even put on some skinny jeans and Brent told me I looked great! He usually always says that, but I was in skinny jeans. So it made it more awesome. :)

Yesterday in the weight room, I did upper body. So mostly arms and abs. I am seriously a weakling. But getting stronger :). I actually really enjoy my workouts in the weight room. I used to just run all the time and never really set into a weight room when I was in high school and during my first year of college. So it's definitely a nice way to change things up.

This whole week I was so bummed that wasn't able to find time to write a blog post. I was observing at Orem Elementary School the last half of last week and the first half of this week and they provided lots and lots of cute stories that were just perfect to blog about. I'll be honest, I was not excited to go to elementary school. There is a reason that I chose to be a secondary education major. And that reason is that I do not like little kids very much. I think that they can be kind of gross sometimes. I'll admit that they can be cute sometimes though.  Sorry if that offended anyone. I'm sure I'll like my own alright when that day comes. But dealing with other people's germy kids? ....nott uhh. No thank you. (Unless they are babies...or toddlers. Then I think they are adorable! But only when I can give them back to mom and dad when they start screaming). I was always that babysitter that put on a movie until  the parents came back and then I just sat on the couch and made sure they didn't kill each other. But after this week, I gained an incredible respect for elementary school teachers and after only spending five days in a classroom of second graders, I even thought that most of them were kind of cute by the time I left. I was actually kind of sad to leave. Tuesday was our last day and when the kids found out, they ALL came over and hugged me and my classmate Kelsey. It was the cutest bear hug with about 25 six year olds you have EVER seen. I am so sad that I didn't get a picture. But trust me, it was cute. So...after everything was all said and done, elementary school wasn't all that bad. I kinda liked it. But it by no means made me want to change my major to el ed.
