Weekend Re-cap!

Before you go any further, this blog post is mostly about fitness today. I PROMISE THIS IS NOT A FITNESS BLOG. Just this post and a few updates every now and then! This could be a little inspiration for you to challenge yourself as well! It's also a little differently set up than most of my posts, I don't usually compile all of my days together either. Bear with me!

Here's my weekend re-cap!

Thursday:
If you know me, you know I am not much of a gym person. My usual line is, "I'm not much for any physical activity." Everyone knows about the feared Freshman Fifteen, luckily that hasn't happened to me, but Kelsey (suite mate) and I are starting to board the Fitness Train a little at a time. UNCC offers some really cool fitness classes free to students, so why shouldn't we take advantage of them? Tomorrow we are beginning a new routine, starting with pilates and a 30 day Squat Away challenge! You think we can keep It up? I hope so. Here is the 30 day challenge:

Obviously, scratch the May out. We modified our own version with a funny selfie, but that's a little too embarrassing for the internet.

(Compliments of Pinterest.)

 

We'll just see how pilates goes in the morning and how well this routine is going to stick. Tonight though, it's a lazy, Netflix-filled evening.

 

Friday:

Pilates was a success and a really good workout! Kelsey and I started our 30 day Squat Away challenge strong today, too! Now we're pretty beat and I'm sleepy. I'm not used to getting up earlier than noon (guilty) on Fridays because of the whole no classes thing. But, I'm proud of us so far! I'm not sure what the rest of the day holds. Laundry, Netflix, and coffee probably, maybe a nap. Boy, do I have my priorities in check. I love this three day weekend shindig!

 

 

    

Saturday:

Today has been so enlightening and fun. I got out of my dorm room and spent time with a new friend and future roommate, Laura! If you get a chance, her blog is pretty great too - check it out! We haven't really hung out together before today, but ended up spending the whole day just talking over Starbucks, Panera, and a little Target run. I couldn't believe how similar we are! It makes me so excited about our rooming situation next year, hopefully a Pinterest-perfect apartment. She's an aspiring nurse and hearing her tell stories about the profession let's me know that it is truly her passion! We're both very excited about our future careers! This is Day 2 for mine and Kelsey's Squat Away challenge, we're keeping up with it so far, if two days really counts for "keeping up" with anything! Now to do or not to do some laundry...

Another little highlight of the day:

My parents sent me a selfie today from a Charleston Stingrays hockey game. They do not know what "empty nest" syndrome is, these two kids are having all kinds of fun!

Sunday:
Today was another great Sunday. Kelsey, Robbie (Kelsey's boyfriend), and I went to Elevation Church this morning and had a delicious lunch at Olive Garden afterwards, thanks Robbie! This is Day 3 for Squat Away with Kels and I and let me tell you, we are kickin' butt and takin' names! 75 squats today. They are kinda kicking my butt, considering how sore I am, but hey, I'm still doing it! We did a yoga class this afternoon, too. Streeeeetching is the way to go. It has been such a fantastic and chill weekend. I'm excited to see what this week holds for me. Probably, a lot of homework - it's the procrastinator in me.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, I'm sure you'll be hearing from me again sometime this week. Thanks for reading!
