What to do this summer?

Hm. I really shouldn't be asking this question because I have summer duty. Yes, being a student nurse has its ups and downs. But that's life so you just have to go on with it. (am I really saying this)

But anyway, I gained a lot of weight since the schoolyear started and I blame all the stress that comes with being a junior in my college. Yeah, having to go through Sociology and Literature in the same year, ack. Not that good. Add to that, I'm a stress eater. Hence, I gain weight every time I am stressed! Haha. Sooo, when was I not stressed this year? Hahaha. :))

So this morning, I decided that I will finally start doing something about it. I searched through my stuff for the dvd of the exercise video my sisters and I used to follow in order to get back into shape. When I found it, the weights were missing. So I had to look for those, too. But I found them, too, after turning the stockroom inside out. Haha. I was finally able to start at around 4pm.

The exercise video is really good. I mean, it's something like an idiot's guide to exercising. Well said instructions, arrows on where the "stress" should be, and music that's easy to dance to. Thing is, it's also soooo good that you really feel that you're working out. Dammit. I felt every inch of me was in pain. Haha. My heartrate was up to 120 when I finished the WARM UPS. The hell. :)) Oh but it doesn't end there. There's this cardio part where you have to jog in place while jumping and doing jacks and flexing your biceps and doing delts. Aw mehn. I lost count on how many times I said, "you have got to be kidding me," desperately gasping for air and begging for water. Oh, that's NOT an overstatement, I tell you. :))

There's also this part where it's purely abwork. You are to lie supine on the ground and do some crunches and some leg lifts whatever. You should have seen me when there were only about five minutes remaining. I was just lying there, looking like I was dead and staring blankly into space. I wasn't able to do the final stretches because my body was aching all over! :)) Haha. Gosh. I'm sooooo not fit. :))

I bet I'll be forcing down a lot of painkillers tomorrow. Haha. Although, if the pain will really be that intense, I bet I don't need to force myself, right? Haha.

I can't believe it, I actually wrote what happened to me today! Ha! I can see it already: Imma maintain this blog! I will, I will! XD

Later days,
