It'll just be with a flasher layout ;) </span>Jenny Vesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08121817412813590247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1315611512037370877.post-48846892931326151852009-09-25T01:08:00.000-07:002009-09-25T01:14:32.035-07:00Holidays are here!<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Today on the </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">last day of term</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, it occurred to me how enormously </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">unhappy</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> school makes me. The reason for this is purely because of the people.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There are so many people who are just </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">unpleasant</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, disruptive and unmotivated.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">They care for nobody but themselves</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> and spend the majority of the time that should be spent learning, acting like complete </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">douchebags</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, convinced that they're absolutely hilarious.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I've failed two practice exams because of this disruptive behaviour because they were Aural exams and I was unable to </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">focus and LISTEN</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. They fail to comply to common </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">exam etiquette</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> and so </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">we all pay the price</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This does not make for a very pleasant high school experience, especially since HS is</span><i><span style="font-size: small;"> </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">stressful enough without extra distractions.</span></b></i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It's so difficult to concentrate and focus on achieving excellence when the teacher is too busy shouting in their ear and directing their focus at trying to control these stupid people, their teacher efforts are wasted and cancelled out by the fact that they can't reinforce them and go over it all properly with us.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">It. Is. So. </span><i><span style="font-size: small;">FRUSTRATING!</span></i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Especially sine next year it gets </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">serious</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. The subjects I'm taking are English Excellence, Math Combo, Biology, Chemistry, P.E Elite and Health. </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">It's so important</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> for me to do well in these subjects because</span><b><span style="font-size: small;"> t</span></b><b><span style="font-size: small;">hey are required</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> for the course I plan to take at uni.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">By the way, I had an appointment with the school </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">Careers Advisor</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> this morning and we went over all my plans, subjects and </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">future goals</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> and I've come to the conclusion that I'd be better off to </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">stay at school for year 13</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> for four reasons:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">1. So I don't get a </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">shock</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> with the huge step up from level 2 to course work.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">2. So I can go</span><b><span style="font-size: small;"> further with the subjects</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> I'm taking and gain extra knowledge that will be of use to me for my course</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">3. To increase the chances of being </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">accepted </span></b><span style="font-size: small;">to any institution I choose to apply for</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">and 4. To gain </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">university entrance</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> to have something to fall back on.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I have however decided that perhaps </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">university</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> would be a better option for me because after researching the course outlines etc, </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">Massey University</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> seems to be a better choice than </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">Wintec</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">anyway, back to where I was...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I want to do a 3 year </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">Bachelor in Sport and Exercise</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> and after that do a </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">post-graduate degree</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> in Journalism. This is so I can be a </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">fitness and health blogger/journalist</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. I think a University rather than polytech would be a better choice simply to broaden my horizons in my particular area of study.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span style="font-size: small;">I want to get the most out of my money and determinatio</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">n.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Only thing in my way is the stupid people who are disturbing my focus! It's ridiculous!!! and </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">UNFAIR.</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">On a more </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">positive</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> note, it was the </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">last day of school term</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> today and </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">I ran 7k's</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">! Today our percussion group performed in </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">full school assembly</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. We were so nervous!!! But we had an awesome time and everyone loved it :) There were a few mistakes here and there, but it sounded</span><i><span style="font-size: small;"> MINT</span></i><span style="font-size: small;"> overall, and t</span><b><span style="font-size: small;">hat's all that matters</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Afterwards we all went back into the music room and had a MEEAANNN feed! </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">We had chocolate, chocolate biscuits, fizzy drink, chips, chocolate fish, shapes, crackers, lollies... ugh EVERYTHING!</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> I ate so much chocolate haha, it's my secret weakness. I felt so sick after though, that's the most fat and sugar my body has had in one single sitting in months, and I felt sick for two whole periods. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It was heaps of fun though and </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">I've become rather attached to my fellow bucket-drummers :)</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">anyway, the chocolate binge is was motivated me to consider running 2k's longer than I usually do. Once again it was miserable and raining but I went anyway. I took it </span><i><span style="font-size: small;">reealllyyy</span></i><span style="font-size: small;"> slow because since I haven't run 7k's in months, I can't remember how I pace myself, so I took it really slow </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">so I wouldn't burn out</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. It took me about 50 minutes which is </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">SHAMEFUL</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, but I realized that I'm fully able to speed it up because once I got home </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">I felt like I'd only run 5k</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. The biggest issue was my </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">right knee</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, during the last k home it was </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">SO sore</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. I almost couldn't finish because it hurt so bad. I'm really going to have to do something about that so it doesn't get worse. I plan to book a </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">physiotherapy appointment</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> and start going to the gym to </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">strengthen</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> my thigh muscles to help stop the pain. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Once I got home I</span><b><span style="font-size: small;"> iced my knees</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> for 15 minutes which felt AMAZING, and did my </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">arm weights</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. My arms are getting super buff and I love it :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I've decided that I'm going use my </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">5k run's as speed training</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">, just run as hard as I can the whole way, and do some </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">distance training</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> on other days, which will be (obviously) </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">e</span></b><b><span style="font-size: small;">xtending my distance.</span></b><span style="font-size: small;"> Tomorrow I plan to </span><b><span style="font-size: small;">run 10k's and then on Sunday I'll rest and Monday I'll do a 5k</span></b><span style="font-size: small;">. Maybe I'll drop even more minutes off my time and be within the 20-30 minute range??? that. would. be. SWEET!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Well, as I mentioned in the title, the holidays are here! and I'm really excited :) These holidays I plan to:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Run, blog, study, travel, socialize and weight lift haha.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There are some people that I can't wait to spend some seriously good time with.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Nothing like time with loved ones :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Anyway, it's 8pm and I'm exhausted. I think i'll go to bed.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Goodnight!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">xx</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What are your holiday plans? What's your favourite way to exercise, if at all?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />

<div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Today I just proved the </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">ultimate test of dedication</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">... I hadn't been for a run in 2 days and I was dying to get out an go, but it was absolutely FREEZING outside and pouring bucketloads of rain. I decided to </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">suck it up</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> and get out and go anyway. I was definitely motivated by Caitlin's blogposts on running in less-than-desirable conditions on her blog </span><a href="http://HealthyTippingPoint.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">HealthyTippingPoint.com</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> (which is an awesome blog by the way, I strongly recommend you check it out).</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">So I borrowed my mothers new red Anorak (second hand), put on my tiny running shorts, laced up my running shoes and off I went! </span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">WELL,</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> let me tell you..</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I. Got. </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">WET</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">. That anorak was most definitely NOT water proof, I felt like I was running through a constant full-force shower! I was able to wring-out my running shorts at the end haha and my shoes had a pond in each. When I was running, I originally tried to avoid puddles because I wanted to reduce wet-feet as much as possible, and I was going pretty well till I got about 1.5k's in and I stepped in what I </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">thought</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> was a very shallow and safe puddle, and actually ended up being a good </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2 inches deep.</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> Good stuff lol.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">So for the rest of the 5k I gave up caring, despite the fact that the amount of water was so great that it felt like I was running with </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">weights</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> attached to my ankles.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Nevertheless, I ran the fastest 5k I have ever run before! I clocked it in </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">33 minutes!!</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> That's </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">a new PR!</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> I was so so happy. I'm not entirely sure what caused my </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">huge boost of energy</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> so I was able to knock so much time off, It could've been a number of things:</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">1. </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Super-food</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> sushi for lunch</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2. Day days </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">rest</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> from any intense exercise</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">3. A good 11 hours of </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">sleep</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> last night</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">4. Freezing my butt off and dripping from head to toe with water and just </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">wanting to get home.</span></b></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Hmmm, probably a </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">combination</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> of all four I'd say?</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Either way, I was very VERY pleased, and that just made it more worthwhile having run in such </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">icky</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> conditions.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I find that if I rest for longer than 2 days, I tend to </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">lose motivation</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">, so I try not to go more than two days without running because I forget what the </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">endorphins</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> feel like and I get just a little </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">too</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> comfortable with being lazy, which isn't good.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I think that by setting long-term fitness goals though, that will help me stay motivated to </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">keep running.</span></b></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Once I got back from running, I removed all my wet clothing, </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">stretched</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> in front of the nice warm fire, showered, then did some weights to help </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">strengthen</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> my arms. I just used a 1kg today.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Oh! Something I've forgotten to mention thus far, I found out some wonderful news yesterday which completely lightened my mood considering that I had a really terrible day and I was generally miserable the entire time.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I made it into Year 12 P.E Elite!!!</span></b></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I can't believe I did it! Considering I didn't take P.E this year, I am </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">so lucky </span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">to have been academically successful enough to </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">prove that I am capable.</span></b></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Ms Dobben, the Head Of Department for P.E said that she felt I was well capable and that </span><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">the motivation was there</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> and she expects me to do well. I was so proud that she has that level of </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">faith</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> in me as an athlete, that that alone is enough to keep me going.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I couldn't thank her enough.</span></span><br />

</span> </span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">P.E Elite will offer so many </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">opportunities</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> in sport which will be so beneficial to me and will also look fantastic on my application to </span><a href="http://wintec.ac.nz/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Wintec</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> in November of next year.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">An example of and awesome opportunity we're offered is a two day </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Ski Trip!</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> I love skiing and I haven't been in </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">four years</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">!

</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Anyway, I just sent an email to the local newspaper, the </span><a href="http://www.whakatanebeacon.co.nz/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Whakatane Beacon</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">, asking them to </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">consider the possibility </span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">of letting me write an </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">e</span></b><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">ntertainment article</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> for them. I feel I'm capable and I outlined the reasons why I thought I would be good for the job.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I was inspired to do this after reading one of the blog posts from </span><a href="http://healthytippingpoint.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">HealthyTippingPoint</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> about </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">being afraid to ask</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> for things.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I found it really thought-provoking, and instantly decided that I was going to do something I've been meaning to do for months, </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">request permission</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> to write an article for the local newspaper.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I would love the </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">experience and the exposure</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> it would give me, also the pride I would get from knowing I am good enough to have my work published locally.</span></span><br />
</div><div style="text-indent: 0in !important;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">That's a step in the </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">right</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> direction towards my </span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">ultimate goal</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> of being a healthy eating/fitness blogger and journalist.</span></span><br />

With cuts and grazes.<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Wow... today has definitely been an </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">interesting</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> day... This stupid b*tch with a </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">nasty attitude problem</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> who's a year younger than me, </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">smashed a window on me</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> at the end of Lunchtime. I was lent up against the window and she punched the glass and it smashed all over me, I got glass </span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">EVERYWHERE</span></i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. All down my shirt, in my bra, down my back, in my collar, in my hair. </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have several little cuts</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> on my neck and back now, not to mention my hands which had glass sticking out of them.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Obviously, there was quite a </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">crowd</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> that gathered outside the window in excitement, and </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">me, not really giving a sh*t</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> that they were there, just wanted to get the glass off </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">so I stripped</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> in front of all of them lol. It only registered to me when I was in the sick bay that there had been pretty much </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">half the male population of the school watching me</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> strip to my bra. Oh well, like I always say: </span><b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Everyone loves naked b*tches</span></i></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. It doesn't bother me, I've never been shy with that sort of thing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">They'll get over it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Anyway, it took AGES to get all the glass off, I changed my top to my P.E shirt which I luckily had with me in my bag </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">(reason why I took my top off)</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">, and I still had </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">microscopic little shards</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> stuck in my skin which hurt like a bitch and required a shower to fully remove.</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I WAS TOTALLY PISSED</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. Seriously, I have never wanted to punch someone so bad in my life. I wanted to do two things, 1. Punch her as hard as I could in the face, and 2. Curl up in the arms of a particular person and </span><i><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">CRY!</span></b></i><br />
<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I did neither.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I didn't hit her because </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I know better than that</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">, she's a crazy b*tch and would've totally kicked my ass and because I would've gotten in heaps of trouble and </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I didn't want anymore drama</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> than necessary because I knew there would be some as a result. And I didn't cry because that's stupid and sissy in that situation and I had a feeling that that </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">certain person</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> wouldn't be very interested in comforting me, which would've made me feel </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">worse.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Haylie went with me to the sickbay to clean the glass out of my skin and wait with me while the DP came and spoke to me </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">about what happened.</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> I went home early and completely missed 5th period so I could go home and shower to wash my hair and remove any excess glass.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The thing I hate the most, is knowing that people will be </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">gossiping</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> about it now, the fact that there was a broken window and that I took my top off in front of heaps of people, which to me is </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">no big deal.</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> I </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">HATE</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> being the topic of gossip. </span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It's so primary school.</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Anyway, </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm moving on from that now</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">, that girl will get in trouble and my life will continue as normal with a few extra healing cuts. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It's all made easier to get over because I have the knowledge that in </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">one short year, </span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I will be finishing high school </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">forever</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> to go to </span><a href="http://wintec.ac.nz/"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Wintec</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> in Hamilton and do a three year Bachelor in Sport and Exercise Science, and then once I'm finished, do a one year Diploma in Journalism. </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">EXCITING STUFF!!</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Possibly </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">the most </span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">exciting factor about all this, is knowing that I'll be finished with stupid high school drama. I feel like I've outgrown high school, not in the sense of work and level of difficulty, but the shit that goes on, the drama and constant issues and just general immaturity. Today's little demonstration is a perfect example of it all, and I feel as though it's all so beneath me. I'm so ready for new and exciting things, </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">independence and maturity</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A real chance to live life and enjoy it.</span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">at the risk of contradicting myself</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> and sounding immature, I'm so excited to be leaving behind people who have created havoc in my life and caused my life to </span><b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">feel like hell</span></b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. There are so many people that I'm so relieved I will never have to see again in my life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">My life without them in it, seems absolutely blissful! There are no words to describe the level of stress that will be removed from my shoulders. I'm so ready to move on and leave the past behind. 2011 is when my life will truly begin :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I can hardly wait.</span></b>Jenny Vesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08121817412813590247noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1315611512037370877.post-75816360916241217882009-09-19T22:49:00.000-07:002009-09-19T22:49:53.996-07:00Productive Sunday.<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm really pleased with myself, because today I had a <b>productive day</b>! And this is awesome because it's Sunday and I'm NEVER productive on Sundays. Usually I lie around all day feeling miserable, contemplating that the following day is monday, and no one likes Mondays.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">EXCEPT! I'm looking forward to tomorrow because it's my dear friend <b>Dallas's 17th birthday</b> and I can't wait to give him his present :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But anyway, today I woke up naturally at ten to 8 in the morning, delighted to find that it was a beautiful sunny day. I checked my blog, read the latest "</span><a href="http://healthytippingpoint.com/"><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">healthy tipping point</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">" entry as I do every day, I showered, then I cooked a <i>SWEET</i> breakfast for Mitchell and I. My <b>fav</b>, french toast with Wholemeal bread with real Maple Syrup and frozen Blueberries on top :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">YUMMA!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We waited about 45 minutes for our food to settle, I slathered on the <b>sunblock</b>, listened to Red Hot Chili Peppers, then we headed off for our intense bush walk up the Bird Walk (which is a short distance, but heavily made up of almost vertical flights of stairs and never-ending hills). It was HARD OUT! I had forgotten just how much of a workout those flights of stairs are. I was huffing and puffing and totally exhausted, but I kept myself motivated by thinking about how great it is for me and <b>how amazing those stairs will help my butt to look</b> haha. It works! Seriously :D</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It was also <i>extremely</i> hot, but I was grateful for the change up in work out, it was a good break from my regular 5k running route. Also, I was able to eat 4 squares of yummy Cadbury Crunchie bar chocolate and not feel guilty :) <b>I've decided to stop feeling so bad whenever I allow myself to have a little treat.</b> I'm so harsh on myself and it's really <b>unfair</b> to my self-esteem and self-confidence. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After the Bird Walk we exited out Whitehorse drive, carried on up the gorge hill, walked down Hillcrest, down the Rock Pitt steps, down Commerce street, through the Gypsy fair and back home. The whole excursion took about <b>2 hours</b> and at the end Mitchell stated that that's the best workout he's had in weeks haha. Mitchell is not overly athletic, so kudos to him for giving it his best efforts and keeping up with me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">When we got home we chillaxed with a good movie, <b>"The Boat That Rocked"</b> I LOVED it!! It was so so so funny, and I was so proud to see Rhys Darby repping NZ. It was so good, I highly recommend it to anyone who loves Rock N' Roll and is interested in a light-hearted comedy with lots of naked girls ;]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After that we had our eats, in the middle of the movie I had strawberry Greek Yoghurt with Walnuts, Almonds and Oats and after I had half a can of tinned peaches and some "hot pork", it was so good! And kept me full for ages which is good.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm booking my learners license tomorrow! Exciting stuff!!! I'm going to go for my Motorbike license at the same time. I can't wait to be able to drive, I'll feel so independent, I'm really truly excited at the idea for the first time in my life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Peace!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">xoxo</span><br />

My Kitten Harlow got run over and she died.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm incredibly upset about it, she was the cutest, most kind natured and adorable little bundle of fluff I've ever had as a pet.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I've never had a cat like her. She always used to be happiest when she was wrapped around your next like a scarf and you always new she was happy because she'd purr like a lawn-mower :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Even my Uncle who is </span></span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">allergic</span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> to cats, loved her and took to her instantly, carrying her around on his shoulder and feeding her meat scraps when he was cooking the barbie.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'll miss her so so much and I can't believe she's gone already :( We've had her since March and she's been the best kitten.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I love her.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here are some shots of me and my gorgeous girl:</span></span><br />

So that alone is a serious achievement for me.</span></span><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">UNFORTUNATELY</span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">, It didn't go too well for me, for reasons which are entirely my own fault.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The worst thing that I did today was not drinking water. I had my 1.5 liter bottle with me as usual, but because I have this ridiculous fear of having to pee whilst running, I didn't drink any of it. So the only liquid I had had all day was a cup of strong coffee at 7 in the morning.</span></span><br />
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It did not go down well at</span></span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span></span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">ALL.</span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I felt absolutely dreadful through the entire duration of the short run because I was running in the boiling hot sun feeling dehydrated and suffering Acid Reflux. I felt like at any time I was going to vomit acid.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">YUCK. I had to WALK a little bit of the way because I was in too much pain, I was so disappointed in myself.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Another bad mistake I made was not wearing sunblock. It was boiling hot and the sun was less than forgiving on my bare, exposed arms, legs, ears and face and even though I don't think I got sunburnt, it was on my mind the entire time. I hate getting sunburnt because it's so bad for you.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Finally, I need to start running regularly on rough-terrain. At one point in the track we had to run through a paddock, and the ground was so bumpy and uneven, I was terrified I was going to twist an ankle.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Maybe next time I'll tape up my ankles?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I also wish I'd worn a hairband to hold back my fringe because when I was running through the paddock it was ten times more difficult to concentrate on my footing because I couldn't see properly.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Overall, I came 27th. Now that is still a massive achievement for me :) Because in my history with cross-country, I've never made an effort and I always wound up coming within the last TEN people.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">That's embarrassing.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">So despite the less than favourable conditions, I'm happy with my placing :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I know I could've done much better if I had've taken in to consideration those factors, but what can you do?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Next year I'll do even better.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Some things I'd change or will do better next year:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">1. Stay hydrated throughout the day and bring a small water bottle with me.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2. Tie ALL my hair back</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">3. Wear plenty of sunblock</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">4. Wear less heat absorbing clothing</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">5. Train on uneven surfaces more often.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm a little embarrassed that as a runner I didn't do better, but it'll give me a chance to prove myself next time.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

There's nothing I enjoy more than getting outside and being active, but MAN, today we did a fitness/cardio activity, and far out, it was </span></span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">HARD! </span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm trained as a long distance runner, which means when I run I start out slow and gradually build up to a fast, steady pace. So when we do sprints, after about two, I burn out.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I hate sprints.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Something I did notice though, is that by the 8th round, I was still able to sprint as hard as I had during the first, whereas the rest of my group had slowed significantly.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm fitter than I thought :) So even though I was lagging behind for the first few rounds, it paid off in the end.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I really should do more interval training, it's so good for fitness, It would be highly beneficial for me.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Usually I do half an hour of interval training, I make a 30 minute playlist for my ipod and for each song I do a different action. So for example, for one song I would jog, the next song I would skip (with a jump rope), the next song I would walk and the next song I would sprint.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">But I rarely do it because it's so tiring. I think I'll change things up though, I'll go to the park instead and sprint/run fast around a lap of the field, then walk one the sprint one etc.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I prefer to be in open spaces, I usually do interval training on my tennis court.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Mum lent me a book called "Deliciously Natural", and it's a bit of a family heirloom, my Grandma bought it for mum for her 24th birthday when they were both hard out marathon runners, Mum said that that book helped her IMMENSELY, and when she followed the guidelines she said she had so much energy, she was able to knock several minutes off her running times!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So I've been reading up to help me learn new ways of eating and staying healthy. So a new and improved diet, combined with some serious, regular interval training should help me reach my goal of 5k in 25 minutes or less :]</span></span><br />

</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Makes me excited just thinking about it!!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Something I truly HATE with a passion, is being hungry. Argh it's such an awful, frustrating sensation! Usually, I pack a really decent lunch for school, have a huge breakfast and balance my food out well so I'm full most of the time and don't get hungry, but today was awful.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I completely underestimated the amount of food I would need to re-fuel after P.E and I got SO hungry, I was really upset and grumpy for the afternoon.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Being hungry sucks because you can't concentrate, it's hard to function properly without adequate energy, and it especially sucks at high school because you can't do anything about it! Since you're responsible for packing your own lunch, if you don't bring enough, tough shit!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I also hate that they don't allow us to snack during class. By "snack", I don't mean eating a sandwich, cup o soup and various fruits, I mean little things like bags of nuts, crackers and muesli bars to help us re-fuel when we start to lag.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I hate skipping meals too because it's so bad for your body and makes your body GAIN weight during short periods of time, and I like my body to have a healthy, balanced metabolism and meals! So today I was seriously pissed off.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm a little irritated because I pulled a few muscles today from sprints because the teacher never offered us the chance to stretch afterwards -_-</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Frustrating.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I plan to do 15minutes or so of yoga tonight though because it's my "rest" day, so hopefully that'll ease some discomfort.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Anyway!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I have a super busy night filled with meal-planning and studying, so I'm outties.</span></span><br />

I woke up at 9.30, had a yummy breakfast of All Bran with chopped Banana on top. Then I went on the computer for a little bit, caught up with bebo/myspace/facebook comments etc, then made plans with Mum to go to the Hub to buy a new sports bra and running shorts for me.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I was sooo happy to get a bra and new shorts. I didn't have a sports bra at all previously and that made running extremely uncomfortable, also I didn't have any decent running shorts so it was cool to get some of them.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Once I got home I made myself lunch which was a smoothie with Spinach, Banana, Frozen Blueberries, Pineapple juice and two teaspoons of Spiralina powder. I was a little nervous with this one because I've never put Spinach in a smoothie before, but it turned out really great! You could barely taste the spinach and it just tasted really nicely of pineapple :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I also had a slice of bread with a little bit of peanut butter on it, folded in half as a sandwich for pre-run fuel. I waited half an hour after I'd finished eating to wait for my food to settle, and then off I went on my 5k!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I got to test out my new sports wear, and I have to say, I am 100% satisfied with how they worked for me. The shorts were brilliant, and I can't express how great it was to run with a bra that has good support.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I ran harder and faster than I've ever run before in my life because I'm speed-training. I was </span></span><i><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">STUFFED</span></span></i><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> by the end, but it was totally worth it :) I really enjoyed it.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">It's cross-country on Thursday, so hopefully I'll get a better place than 6th or 5th to LAST like I have over the majority of my life haha.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">My time was 38 minutes, that still seems like a lot since my goal is to run 5k in under 25 minutes, but I knocked </span></span><b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">TWELVE</span></span></b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> minutes off my usual time! SA-WEET! That is such a great achievement for me and I'm so proud that I accomplished that.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I stretched and did a bit of yoga once I got home, but I don't think it helped much, my legs are quite stiff at the moment.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I chilled out, listening to some music for about an hour and then sat back and watched Gossip Girl, in the ads I made afternoon tea which was a small tub of fruit yoghurt and once slice of toast with two slices of edam cheese and tomato on top, YUMMAH ^.^</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Anyway, so once Gossip Girl finished, I got a phone call from a very old family friend who I haven't spoken to in months, she's a really good friend of my Mum's and I've known her for my entire life. She rang to speak to me about the fact that I'm not taking maths next year, because she herself is a teacher and understands the importance of keeping your options open, so now I'm thinking about maybe taking maths instead of Physics... just to be safe.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'll speak to Miss Deely, the year 11 dean tomorrow about it. I'm really starting to come around to the idea of keeping maths next year. I don't wanna destroy my future before it's even begun... well not so much "destroy" but make it considerably more difficult than it needs to be.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">peace and love.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">xxo</span></span>Jenny Vesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08121817412813590247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1315611512037370877.post-40005417455714853492009-09-11T23:31:00.000-07:002009-09-11T23:31:41.336-07:00So I made a bet...<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Yep, this bet was with three girls in my science class, since I'm always changing up my hair, I keep saying "Oh yeah, now i'm just gonna grow it out long and have it one colour", then next week I'll show up at school having chopped it all off and bleached it blonde or something.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So sure enough, yesterday I was going on about my awesome plans to keep it dark brown and grow it all out and the girls piped up saying "Jenny you say that EVERY SINGLE TIME! and you never keep it like that!" so i was like, "OK! You know what? I'll prove to you that I can do it. For SIX MONTHS, I won't change my hair. I'll get an occasional trim to keep it healthy, but that's as far as I'll go" and Ashlynne said "You've got to keep it dark brown too!" so that's the plan. If I fail and dye my hair a different colour, or get a drastic hair cut, my punishment is to go ranga lol.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">And I'll stick to my word and do it, but that won't be necessary because I do not, by any stretch of the imagination, intend to fail. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So until the 10th of February, I must keep my hair "normal"</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">:)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Sounds easy right?</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Ha, well, not so for someone such as myself, you see, I don't exactly have the greatest track record for maintaining the same hair style for an extending period of time due to getting bored...</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Check out these different looks I've gone through (and these are just the ones I have photos of lol):</span></span><br />

SOO fattening, but It's not like I have them everyday, so I figured why not :) </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'll just run/yoga it off tomorrow haha. I actually baked them just for a very special person, and he really liked them! Mission complete! :D</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Today was a pretty dull day, but I'm fully addicted to Yoga now. Tomorrow there's a three hour work shop in town for yoga and it's 20 bucks entry. I'm so keen to go! I seriously have to burn off all the shit from today, also, I have found that there is nothing like yoga to tone up my stomach with is great.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I find yoga so relaxing... I'm able to centre myself, concentrate on relaxing all the muscles in my body and letting go of any stressors that are unnecessary, so right now, that is the perfect kind of workout for this stage in my life, which has been painfully stressful lately :(</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I have one person who, no matter what, makes me feel happy ^.^ Which I am so so SO grateful for. It's such an incredible thing to find true friends who really care about you and will remain loyal to you no matter what. They are so hard to come by, and truth be told? I only have one of them. He's always there for me and will do anything to make me feel better when I'm feeling down.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In other news, Last night I went to Tauranga with Mum, Anna, Clarissa and Sarah to see Tga's showing of the musical "Cats" by Andrew Lloyd Webber. It. Was. Fan-TASTIC!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I was so impressed! And it made me so nostalgic for the days when I've been involved in theatre productions... I haven't done a show in NINE MONTHS! That's so long for me! I miss it :( I miss being involved, and the work, and having something to aim for and to push yourself to your ultimate limit, and the good vibes created between the cast members, and the backstage romance that ALWAYS occurs ;) and learning new things and new skills, and finally, performing in front of hundreds of people, making them smile and feel such great emotions, that's the best bit.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Tga's "Cats" fully did that for me, and I give them a ten out of ten. Highlights for me were definitely the Rum Tum Tugger's song just coz he's my favourite character, and the Macavity the mystery Cat duet, I thought they did SUCH a good job.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Here's a video of the original duet from the film:</span></span><br />

Well I'm pretty excited over something fairly small, I just had to do my first sunscreen application since last summer :D</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">That means, the weather's heating up! BUT, with warm weather comes crazy ass protection. I'm serious, I truly can't stress enough how very important it is to wear sunscreen nowadays. I've always been pretty slack, but i was sitting outside just now for about 5 minutes with my arms exposed to the sunlight with no sunblock and already, at the very start of spring, i am sunburnt on my left arm.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Scary shit. No way am i getting skin cancer or popped blood vessels or wrinkly skin when I'm old or any of that shit!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This spring/summer I'm gonna be super sun-smart. I tan very very easily during the warmer seasons and that's usually because i go without sunblock... I've always thought that I'd be okay without it because i don't tend to burn very easily, but just now, after seeing how quick i burnt, i went straight inside, dug up a bottle of SPF 30 and slathered it on, all over my arms, every bit of exposed skin including the back of my neck. Sunscreen is going to be my greatest accessory this spring/summer, along with a great new pair of sunnies and a funky hat :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">And to compensate for that fact that I won't be AS tanned as usual, Everyday i shall use my Johnson's Holiday Skin Body Lotion which is like a two in one, brilliant moisturizer and fake tan. Perfect!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">A lot of girls in my town find it embarrassing to use fake tan, and prefer to lie in the sun and bake for hours instead so it's "real", but fuck that, I don't want skin cancer. Bring on the two in one and sunblock!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Enjoy your sun-smart summer and have a great day :)</span></span><br />

We have 7 weeks left altogether of school before NCEA externals.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The work load has increased and the seriousness of it has increased, so for me to be getting sick and needing to stay home, it's not very good.</span></span><br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">However</span></span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">, this has given me all new inspiration to bake! Something which I've always been afraid to do coz i've never really been very good at it and because sugary foods scare me... :S</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I don't know why, but whenever i am in ill health i'm always more likely to eat unhealthy :/ i wonder why that is.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This afternoon i made a 5 Minute Chocolate Cake, using a recipe i found on Rigel Suicides Flickr </span></span><a href="http://flickr.com/photos/ohnorigel"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">account</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> and it actually tasted really really good!</span></span><br />

This topic of discussion arose because I mentioned a noticeable loss of weight in one of the girls, to which my friend informed me of her "effective" diet regime. I couldn't believe it. I am so disgusted by the prospect of people STARVING themselves to achieve weight loss. I can barely look at her now. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I just find it so damn frustrating that there are some people out there who are so stupid and naive, that instead of developing a healthy eating plan, combined with exercise, they eat NOTHING! Hoping to lose a few kgs!</span></span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Look: Is it really worth it??</span></span></b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFbBwThWTiYaH81ggHZpwp6xU0dJFLH_eN0_6ZSLUS39hVQ7hrAJvjhnUcqddGNQFfNyHNsZtuef3bcVnQSKoTktXCVNsemrSIdHyeIYRiS3SQNlotSxn39u-cqFjBopagkD4-_gxmW68/s1600-h/anorexia.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFbBwThWTiYaH81ggHZpwp6xU0dJFLH_eN0_6ZSLUS39hVQ7hrAJvjhnUcqddGNQFfNyHNsZtuef3bcVnQSKoTktXCVNsemrSIdHyeIYRiS3SQNlotSxn39u-cqFjBopagkD4-_gxmW68/s320/anorexia.jpg" /></span></a></div><b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">T IS SO BAD FOR YOU!</span></span></b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> AND, you end up looking disgusting! It affects your physical appearance in terms of skin complexion, hair, teeth etc. It is awful to feeling a constant hunger, and have it be so intense, ALL THE TIME. If affects your sleep because you're so hungry, it affects your concentration because your brain can't function properly without adequate fuel, your muscles don't work properly because you have a severe lack of energy.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Not to mention that usually, it makes you look bloated because your stomach has no food to digest.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Also, i have never in my entire life met a guy who finds girls that thin attractive at all. Most of them, in fact will proudly admit that they love a bit of booty/curve to a woman!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">When you go on diets such as these, or other ridiculous plans where you change your eating habits for a certain amount of time to lose a bit of weight, what people fail to realize is that the second you start eating normally again, you'll gain all the weight back on! That is why it is so important to simply eat a healthy balanced diet with food from all the different food groups, incorporated with regular exercise and you will be a happy, healthy being.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I know what i'd rather choose... obviously.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Another girl my friend told me about, I was so, SO disappointed to hear that she wasn't eating, because she's always been such a beautiful, confident girl who's so sure of herself and "doesn't care what other people think"... Well obviously she does.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I think my school need to make a bigger deal about this type of thing. It's generally just "swept under the carpet" and not dealt with, when during teen years, it is absolutely paramount that this issue is addressed.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I intend to see the Deputy Principle about it and ask them to somehow address this and see if we can't get a message through the heads of those stupid and naive enough to believe that the healthy way to be is by not feeding themselves.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Anyway, on to my next point which is that of my coping mechanisms when I'm upset... which i was rather a little while ago.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">It seems funny to me that over the last couple of months, i seemed to have developed a new technique to help me deal with grief/heart break etc. Instead of curling up in a little ball and bawling my eyes out like I use to or binge drinking for a week like a mate of mine use to, I set fitness goals.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I sit there, more determined than ever, and set a bunch of goals and start planning the actions i will need to help them become a success. I spose it just gives me something to concentrate all my energy on... Stops me from becoming a hermit or something. I'm quite glad that this is how i react now. it kinda gives all the bad shit a silver lining..</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Here's the list i wrote out about half an hour ago when I was very very upset, it's kinda like my fitness bucket list:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">1. Start doing weights regularly at the gym.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2. Take up boxing.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">3. Learn to surf.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">4. Do yoga everyday for at least 30 minutes.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">5. Win school x-country one year.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">6. Scuba dive.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">7. Run a half marathon.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">8. Run a full marathon.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">9. Do a triathlon</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">10. At some stage in my life, become a yoga instructor.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">11. Become a black belt in martial arts/martial arts expert.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Having these long-term goals to work towards helps me stay focused and think of the positive. It gives me a genuine reason to get out of bed when all i want to do is curl up and cry.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I run a lot when i'm sad. It helps me run out all the pain.. I just run until i can't run anymore and my chest feels like it's about to burst, and my knees feel like they're going to snap and my body is so covered in sweat, it feels as though i've been drained of all liquid.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">That is the best therapy for me. I truly helps me cope with shit.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">What helps you deal with emotional strain?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">What would you have on your bucket list?</span></span><br />

And I love the places that we go<br />

And I love the way you can't say no<br />
Too many long lines in a row<br />
I love the powder on your nose<br />

It started with Kelsi, Karla, Leonie and I going to the hot pools. That was really cool, it was just us four chicks and it was great to chill and just chat and gossip :) Also the hot water was HEAVEN on my poor sore muscles :( They're really bad today, but the hot water helped. Also, i have a nasty ass cold at the moment so that makes life ten times more difficult. But nevertheless, i had a really awesome time ^-^ We got some SWEEEET photos too! And a video :) Leonie's camera has this righteous case which goes underwater, so we have some photos which will have you trippin' balls!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Anyway, so the pools close at 9.30pm so we had to get out. We had some sweet chat in the changing rooms, but there was this pain in the ass little kid who kept butting in to our conversation, must of been like 3 or 4 hahaha.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We parted ways with Leonie at the gate and Kelsi, Karla and I continued onwards to home. I wasn't going to stay over at Karla's because I'm really sick with a bad cold and I thought I should have an early night (god knows i needed it, i was feeling dizzy and falling asleep at like 10!), but instead i decided to stay :) We got to Karla's and spent about an hour sitting at her breakfast bar with our various beverages- sparkling lemonade, hot ribena with honey, coffee, water and cordial, just chatting about anything and everything. Eventually after relocating to the floor in front of the fire and chatting for a few more hours, we hit the hay. Three of us in one queen size bed haha, it was surprisingly comfy! And i went to bed first so i was freezing and really happy to have two people to assist in warming it up. Snacks were salada crackers with Edam cheese. We woke up around 10.20 and after chatting about yummy food for 15 minutes or so, all decided we were hungry and wanted eats so we went and got brekky :) Breakfast for me consisted of THEN.... THEN we busted out the Nintendo WII!!! Boxing yeeeee! :D MAN that is one hell of a work out! It was great, i just had to think of someone who highly fucks me off and i was good to go haha. My arms are so sore now, if you did that for 30 minutes you'd have your high intensity cardio DOWN! Best thing was, when the Karla's parents went out, we put on music really really loud and it was mostly Hed PE, so the style of the music fit perfectly with the nature of the activity we were doing. We spent some of the day sitting outside on the deck enjoying the sun which was nice :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kelsi went home around 1.30pm and Karla and I watched Jumper and she cooked lunch. Lunch consisted of two chicken burger patties and two scoops or so of chips. not overly healthy, but it's not something i eat often, so what the hell.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We then watched Kill Bill 2 which was gnarly as fuck and after we played a good ol' game of Tennis on the WII and golf, baseball and once again, BOXING!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I left at around 6.15pm, came home, had a shower, and here i am :)</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I had such an awesome time!!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Can't wait to do it again ^.^</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Love you all.</span></span><br />

I'm really angry because I came home from school as fast as I could, abandoning the plans I had with Dallas because mum and I had discussed going to the gym this afternoon for a consultation as well as buying a few things to help me with running so I don't have such awful knee pain.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Yeah well, NONE of that happened. I got home and she said "I just got back from being out for a long time, I'm not that interested in going out again", WELL THAT'S NOT MY PROBLEM! We had plans, I ditched a friend for them, and then she decided she wasn't going to go anywhere. Awesome mum. Really helpful.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm afraid to go running again because my knee's are stuffed so whenever I do, after half an hour my knees are burning! I wanted some protection to help prevent that!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I really want to leave Whakatane. it's driving me insane, every single day I have to go to school knowing that there is all this bullshit about me, all these lies and I can't defend myself. Usually it wouldn't bother me what others think, but this bothers me because it's interfering with my friendship with someone amazing who I would die for. It's REALLY interfering, and it's so </span></span><b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">so </span></span></b><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">upsetting for me to have it be like that :(</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'd love to leave the country. Start COMPLETELY fresh, leave behind the fucked up past and just have a completely clean slate where no one knows anything unless I tell them.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Canada is where I'm thinking. Only problem is getting a Canadian passport and funding it so I'm able to live there...</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Mum lectures me telling me Karma is on my side and it will come back and bite them in the ass, but that's not gonna happen within the next two years, and there is no fucking way I am putting up with this shit, unjustified for the next two years of my schooling.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I need an escape but I don't know what to do... :(</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm really upset and in a really bad mood today, and not even </span></span><a href="http://operationbeautiful.com/"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Operation Beautiful</span></span></a><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> can cheer me up.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Mum says it'll all make me stronger, but FUCK IT! It's been 9 months and I'm getting increasingly weaker..</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">High school is like a fucking jungle, you'll be lucky to get out alive.</span></span><br />

</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I need help to smile.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Any suggestions?</span></span><br />

Unfortunately enough for me though, this is unlikely to happen anytime soon due to the recession :( I have no money at all which is proving to be a problem since I'm starting to get serious about maintaing a healthy lifestyle. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">For me, a healthy lifestyle consists of mainly 3 aspects:</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">1. Eating well</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2. Exercising regularly/getting enough sleep etc.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">There are some things I feel I MUST do, 1. Buy a new sports bra, 2. Go see the physiotherapist about my knees, 3. Go to the gym and do weight-lifting, 4. Take up kick boxing and 5. Buy knee support thingy's from rebel sport.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">As a 15 year old girl, mid-teens, I believe that now, during these adolescent years it is absolutely vital that we learn and practice to make healthy food decisions, prepare food and understand the importance of regular exercise. In your teens, this is where most of your major growth and development will occur as you go through the process of becoming an adult. Therefore supporting my opinion that having a healthy lifestyle is absolutely paramount as it can help prevent illnesses such as osteoporosis, heart disease and reduce the risk of cancer.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">It took me a very long time before i realized how important it is to properly take care of myself, because if i don't, who else will?</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I've started eating far healthier, making sure i have reasonable proportions of protein and calcium at breakfast to help keep me full for longer throughout the day. I make sure all the food i eat is good for me, with the occasional treat ^-^</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm currently experimenting to see which foods work best for me to keep me full and give me good energy, and I'm staying well away from bread, sugar, trans fat and salt.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I drink at least 1.5 liters of water a day and usually 2 glasses or so of milk. I eat about 6-7 small meals each day usually between 250-600 KJ.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I plan to buy a camera so i can start taking photos of my running successes and my food choices, i feel like that alone will be a good motivation for me to keep up the healthy eating and exercise!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The school cross country is coming up on the 17th of September and for the first time in my entire life, i plan to actually run and COMPETE. Usually on cross country day i've either wagged school or just walked the course.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This year I'm going to try for REAL.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I probably won't do all that well, but i hope i do, and it will give me something to look forward to and aim for.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Ok, so I basically just covered the first two aspects of my idea of a healthy lifestyle so that just leaves the spiritual side.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I've always had the most trouble with this aspect believe it or not. It's always been a huge problem for me and i've never been good at it. Lately however, there have been a bunch of different things that have been helping to make it easier and more understandable.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm teaching myself how to be in a good mood the majority of the time.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I started by slowly leaving the people who I used to be surrounded by that were just downright unnecessarily negative, they always brought me down, and began being around happy people who are always positive and in a good mood ^-^ I was AMAZED at the difference it made to my mood!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Also I discovered <b><a href="http://operationbeautiful.com/">http://operationbeautiful.com</a></b> and that made such a huge difference to my personality. I was so touched by the movement, i felt motivated to take part myself and in doing so, made MYSELF feel 1000000000 times better about myself, whilst hopefully making others feel the same. It's worth it just to know that it could put a smile on the face of ONE individual.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I visit the site daily to read the new post-its and they always make me feel so happy and confident and beautiful and i think <a href="http://operationbeautiful.com/">Operation Beautiful</a> are a huge reason why i feel so happy and positive now.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I'm also learning to really relax and take time out to be in total peace and quiet at least for a few minutes everyday, just to do nothing. It's brilliant.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">And finally, I've decided to do everything with <b>PURPOSE </b>and be more honest about my feelings and try to consider my own feelings more often, because as an amazing and beautiful friend of mine pointed out, she recognised a pattern occurring in all my friendships, and that was that I constantly put everyone's feelings before mine just to keep the peace and i ended up becoming extremely stressed and pushed to the limit, so i need to be more aware of my own emotions and to make sure my friendships are a give/take thing rather than just give.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">That was the longest post I think I've ever done haha.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Well, i'm glad to get that all down :)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Have a brilliant night everybody.</span></span><br />

I've been hanging out to see this film for a couple of weeks now and i've recently become a massive fan of Winona Ryder, i think she's is an absolutely fantastic actress who is insanely talented with great access to herself, and i have such great admiration for her, but i didn't come here to talk about my admiration for Winona, I'm writing to talk about the film itself, and how i found it extremely intriguing and thought-provoking.<br />Winona's character Susanna was admitted to a psychiatric hospital for "Borderline Personality Disorder" even though she didn't even understand what that meant and didn't feel crazy in any way, shape or form, but reluctantly signed the papers confirming her admittance.<br />I was a little frightened but how deeply i felt i could relate to Susanna... Now, don't get me wrong, i'm not crazy, sure i have my moments and had many accusations and rumours thrown my way that suggest otherwise, but jesus people, be realistic! I am not mentally ill. I felt i was able to relate to Susanna through her view of the world... At one point in the film, she went on to tell one of the doctors, after her fellow patient-friend Daisy committed suicide in her own home after being set free and declared "recovered", that had she had the chance, she would've gone upstairs to Daisy's room after being slammed and accused of a sexually incestuous relationship with her loving father by Lisa (Angelina Jolie), and spoke to her about how she understood what it feels like to try so hard and yet, despite all your best efforts, be unable to fit in with society, to physically harm yourself on the outside just to try and kill the thing on the inside... (I don't self-harm either btw), to feel like such an outcast, not knowing how to relate to others. <br />After listening to her pour out her deepest thoughts and emotions, i was truly struck by how i agreed with her and understood her pain.. <br />I'm not writing all this with the expectation that people will comment with sympathy and kind words, in fact, i don't even really expect this to get read at all, and if it does, i expect harsh words and yet MORE insults and rumours if anything. Wow, what a pleasant society we live in these days.<br />My main problem is that i really can't relate to others, I might as well be on another fucking planet ALL TOGETHER to be honest. It sucks and it makes high school increasingly difficult, but what can you do? All we can do is just be who we are, be assertive and do our best to make sure others don't bring us down.<br />I get where Susanna was coming from, and to some extent, i've been there. But i won't allow it to get me down.<br />Also, another point in which i was like "holy fuck, that's just like me!", is when they told her of how wrong and abnormal it was that, once she graduated from high school, she had no intention of attending college, she simply wanted to settle down and write. This was highly frowned upon by authority figures around her and they very openly displayed their disapproval that she didn't have a "plan".<br />Words cannot express my level of exhaustion at having to constantly explain to authority figures directly present in my life about how, no, i do not have any intention of attending university, i'd rather save my money, get a part-time job and play music. They seem unable to comprehend any of this, and i'm always being told to have a decent "plan" and to keep music as a hobbie. FUCK THAT! I intend to do what makes me happy, sure i'll be on the bones of my ass for money, but i'd rather be playing music and enjoying life then attending lectures everyday for something i have very little interests in and hating life.<br />Thank you Winona, for introducing the psychotic equivalent of me to myself.</span></span></td></tr></tbody></table></span>Jenny Vesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08121817412813590247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1315611512037370877.post-31172601578531726382009-08-29T03:40:00.000-07:002009-08-29T03:41:28.411-07:00I really don't enjoy being sick all that much.<div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); line-height: 15px; "><table width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="font-size: inherit; line-height: 1.22em; "><tbody style="line-height: 1.22em; "><tr style="line-height: 1.22em; "><td width="18" style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><img src="http://s.bebo.com/img/header_arrow.gif" width="18" height="12" style="line-height: 1.22em; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; " /></td><td valign="top" class="xl" style="line-height: 16px; font-size: 11pt; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><a href="http://www.bebo.com/BlogView.jsp?MemberId=9380921835&BlogId=9801831546" style="line-height: 1.22em; text-decoration: none; color: rgb(121, 149, 205); "><b style="line-height: 1.22em; ">Jenny's moan page.</b></a></td><td class="s_r" style="line-height: 1.22em; font-size: 11px; text-align: right; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><i style="line-height: 1.22em; ">10 days ago</i></td></tr><tr style="line-height: 1.22em; "><td rowspan="3" style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC33CC;"> </span></span></td><td colspan="3" style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC33CC;"><img src="http://s.bebo.com/img/vid.gif" width="1" height="3" style="line-height: 1.22em; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; " /></span></span></td></tr><tr style="line-height: 1.22em; "><td valign="top" colspan="2" style="line-height: 1.22em; margin-top: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: auto; margin-left: auto; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#CC33CC;">I'm really not happy right now. I'm hungry and all there is to eat is my secret stash of dark chocolate. so for the last three days, that's what i've been snacking on. I'm tired, my headache is so bad it feels like my brain is trying to expand and explode out of my skull, i'm stressed beyond the limit because i've missed so much school it's gonna be a bitch to try and catch up and i REALLY need to because if i fail ncea level one then i will shoot myself in the head for being so bloody useless. All the stress of that is in turn, making my flu worse which is stressing me out even further which is like a vicious cycle :S not to mention i'm freaking out about getting fat for some reason and i can't even exercise coz i can barely walk straight coz i'm so dizzy and my foot is screwed so i can't run anyway... ARGH. AND! It's raining again, what the hell!??! It went away and was beautiful and sunny for like a DAY, and now it's turned to sh*t again. WHAT is that about?!? And why isn't facebook letting me type my massive update all in one go?? why's that changed? My friggin body can't decide whether it wants to be hot or freezing. i miss my dad and he never ever replies to any of my messages or whatever online which pisses me off, i wanna move to Auckland so it's easier to go to casting calls, i want to be able to be open about my growing love for a certain amazing human being, and i want to get better so i can write music with Zakk, get it recorded, set up a myspace, youtube and bebo band account so we can be proactive and get noticed.

Barack Obama- He's the first black president, which is incredible in itself, and he's the first political leader to ever make me feel secure, and like he's going to make a serious difference, a POSITIVE difference.<br /><br />2. Slash- He's my complete idol. He inspires me everyday musically to carry on, go further, test my limits, live a little, explore new things, and regret nothing. I'd love to speak with him about his music and how he made it out of so much shit alive.<br /><br />3. Jessica Origliasso- She's one of the most powerful woman alive in my opinion. She makes me feel proud of who i am because SHE is so open, honest, and comfortable with who she is. She's a major celebrity, and openly bisexual, she has total guts and is opinionated and makes a point to say something if she's not happy with the way things are going.<br />She inspires me <3<br /><br />4. Evan Rachel Wood- She is my favourite actress, and every single movie she's in makes an impact on me. She's so talented and always manages to portray emotion, feeling and empathy in her roles. She's incredible.<br /><br />5. Anthony Kiedis- He is THE most talented song writer I've ever had the privilege of experiencing EVER. Every single one of his songs contains so much meaning, love and emotion. All of it is so significant, and when i listen to his music, i just know that every song was as important to him as the next. It all means something and there's a story behind every single lyric. Also, when i'm upset, Anthony Kiedis's voice is one of the things that are absolutely guaranteed to cheer me up.<br /><br />6. Duff McKagan- He's so insightful and so passionate about music and especially Punk Rock. I'd love to talk with him about his music and the punk rock era.<br /><br />7. Winona Ryder- She's the cutest, most fierce little pixie on the planet. She's so cute with a fuckload of attitude and straight up talent. She may have gone through some troubles in the past with shoplifting and drug convictions, she has a lot of heart and she's one incredible woman who has been extremely successful. ALSO, She was engaged to Johnny Depp for three years, anyone who pulls Johnny Depp deserves some serious kudos in my opinion lol.<br /><br />8. Axl Rose- Just because he's a fucking psychotic who tore apart Guns N' Roses and i'd like to hear his side of the story.<br />Also, he's an amazing lyricist.<br /><br />9. Rhys Darby- Proud representation of new zealand. Highly entertaining.<br /><br />10. Russell Brand- He's sexy as hell, has a hot as british accent, FUNNY AS HELL, 6 foot 3 and a recovering sex addict... need i say more/?!?</span></span></td></tr></tbody></table></span>Jenny Vesterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08121817412813590247noreply@blogger.com0
