Day 3 | 30 Day Snap Challenge

Hey everyone! (: 

So todays blog post is going to be a little shorter since I am typing it all up on my phone!  The shot for today is of the park area I brought the child I was babysitting to today. In the background you can kind of see a building o  tthe right. Well that is where the gym is that I go to is. So I pretty much walk up to this lovely park three or more times a week! I can't show  you the little one since I doubt her parentswould be okay with the idea due to other circumstances.Well that is it for today!  When I get home from actual work I will edit and add the links like normal! (:

Cheers! x

Hey everyone! :)

As I've mentioned before I've been going to the gym on a regular basis and have been loving every minute of it. That feeling when your running on one of the machines and can feel the oxygen in your blood just waking you up is one of the most amazing feelings in the world! At least in my opinion it is. So I decided to give you all a little look into the kind of music that I listen to in order to pump me up while I'm working out. Now, I know that a lot of people tend to have different playlists depending on what they are doing (cardio, weightlifting, etc) but I am one of the laziest people when it comes to organizing like that and figuring out what works for me. So instead it is all just kind of on shuffle and I work with whatever comes on. It is better then the crummy music that they play over the speakers.

So I would love to know the kind of songs that pump you up and make you feel awesome for whatever reason! I'm really open to any kind of music (as you can probably tell from my severely mixed up style for the gym) so throw anything and everything you've got at me! Maybe you'll find someone else on here who likes the same kind of things and you'll become friends, music is known to do that right?

In other news, I just bought Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation, so I would love to hear your ideas about it. I'm really looking forward to it since I've heard everyone raving about it and finally went to a proper Wal-Mart to pick it up in Canada. Super exciting and glamorous right? Well that is everything for today I am afraid! I've been quite sick the last week and it has kept me stuck at home for days ):

OH! Just a reminder for anyone who is interested...

Exhaustion!

Hey everyone! :)

So toady is Thursday and I'm a day late with my post...whoops! You'll have to forgive me because last night I fell asleep on my laptop keyboard when I was watching television and the next thing I knew it was too late to even try and write a blog post. So my apologizes for making you wait the one extra day! On the plus side you'll be able to read two blog posts back to back because I will be posting again tomorrow and returning to my regular schedule...hopefully. I've been exhausted lately due to a few reasons, the biggest one being the lack of sleep I've been getting.

I took this off tumblr and I think it is a perfect representation of my sleep cycle.

I haven't been feeling too great the last few weeks as spring has come around and I think I've finally been hit by allergies of some sort. Of what? No clue, but I am going to say it is just generic hay-fever allergies that everyone seems to get this time of year. Well, not everyone but everyone I know. Therefore, I should be sleeping more and getting rest but nope, that isn't how my body wants to play this game. Instead I am constantly stuck in the Extremely Hyper stage of sleep in the above post up until the time my body completely gives out on me. Is this a good thing? Not at all, and I know it. Yet I somehow think that I'm able to live off of four hours of sleep and withstand a full day of activities. Haha, no. That is not possible at all.

The second reason why I am so exhausted is the fact that I've been working a lot more at my part-time job since summer has come around and I'm a broke university student. So as everyone who has a job knows, I'm stuck trying to make money to afford to go to school and feed my favourite activities and hanging out with friends. Generally work isn't too bad, as I'm used to getting two, at the most three, shifts in a week but since I finished for the summer in April, it's been double that and my body isn't quite used to the changes yet. Hopefully that will change and won't be too stressful on me in the end since I would appreciate more energy in my life.

Along the lines of getting more energy I've started going to the gym again. Woo Hoo! At least, I'm kinda excited to be going back because it is the only thing that wakes me up in the morning and gives me enough energy to go for a few hours. I tend to get up super early in the morning and head up to the gym and work out for an hour or an hour and a half, doing all sort of regiments that vary from day to day. I think the reason that I've started going more regularly and trying to keep a strict pattern of what I am doing is because of my self-esteem and self-conscious issues, but that is a topic for another day!

So I am going to keep this short and sweet because I'm still so over-tried that my eyes are heavy with wanting to sleep. Hopefully tomorrow the post will be better and I've got a huge post planned out in my head for it. Thanks to everyone who waited patiently for a post, it really means a lot to me! I hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend (for some people it is a long weekend this weekend, so enjoy the holiday) and remember that tomorrow is Friday!

Cheers! x
