Egadz, My Abs!!!!

...or, what will eventually be them, anyway...


Hey, guys. I’m back with my Thursday twofer. And a question for you guys at the end.
I just got done killing my abs – seriously, it feels like there’s knives inside there stabbing them. I must’ve done my workout right. (No pain, no gain!)
So, I found this site today whilst tumbling that I thought I’d share with you all, it’s called fitocracy.com. I joined, and have already leveled up (woot woot!)
It feels nice, and it mixes things together like you wouldn’t believe, and by “things”, I’m reffering to elements of different social media networky things.
You get friends, or “followers”, join groups, get points for commenting, exercising (even if it’s just daily activities that you log, which reminds me that I forgot to log my 20 minute walk to school – I decided to forgo the bus and enjoy the weather -), and a whole bunch of other interstisng stuff. There’s a forum, you can give/get props for people’s statuses, level ups, and whatever else you fancy, and it even features leaders – inspirational people who got fit while using the site. And you can invite your friends from other social networking sites.

I’m super stoked about this, and have it saved in my phone, already.

Now, on to something more tasty – I love ramen, but my favorite brand isn’t even maruchan, and definitely not top ramen. No, sir. One of my old room mates turned me on to mama ramen, I miss their duck flavor immensely, as it was my favorite, but I bring to you a wonderful dish that I just made a few minutes ago.

I made the chicken flavor – which for some reason tastes like there’s lime in there – and added the chicken from my late-night cooking disaster (link here), and some kimchi. (I put that stuff on many things, as I’ve probably mentioned before.) It tastes great!
Also, I just hope my workout makes up for those Pringles. Well, at any rate, I figured this would be a great way to get all the food groups together – protein, veggies, and carbs. I may have a banana later, since I seem to have over-bought, and just to cover my fruit part of the meal. Though, I must say, a couple bananas and water for breakfast really works. I stay full for a while. Depending on the size. This week, I bought larger bananas, and I just finished my small ones, so we’ll see.
I don’t mean to encourage unhealthy eating, it’s just that usually, I’m a of all) in a rush when I leave for school, and b of all) not too hungry in the morning, but I still need a bit of food.
Though, having mentioned school – class today was AWESOME.
We got to make paper planes, and then made instructions for who of the students who were asked to leave for a while. Neither of them got it, but I think our team (we were divided by men and women) got it the closest. Yes, this is college ^___^ Well, at least, today it was! XD
Oh, but one thing I need to know guys, is are you all interested in my fitness life, or should I keep that out? Comments definitely helpful here.

‘til next time, all. ^________^

As promised, and ANOTHER CHALLENGE!!!

Let's see how well I stick with it :P. Lol, well, anyway, I'm at starbucks to get some stuff done, I've got one out of probably a million finished, lol.

So, remember when I told you guys I'd be sharing my costume with you?

I totally camwhored this morning. Let's see how many of my pics make the cut, though. lol.

Hahaha, NOT my costume for halloween. (I've lost one of those socks...:(  )

Aah that's more like it, lol. 
So, my costume was nerdy pigtails (I tried to muss 'em up all nerdy like), those glasses, my bf put "tape" in the middle of them at my request. That polo is super comfy, I normally use it to sleep in, lol. There's a "0" on the back, and a li'l skull emblem thingy on the front by my camhand. It was gifted to me by a  room mate. Those studded 'spendy's were thrifted, as were the pants (minus a hole...one of my friends put that there...douchebag...) and you can't see it, but I got those nikes I'm wearing at plato's closet, new still with tags and shit on them for only 20 bucks. they feel like HEAVEN 'cuz they're basically all satiny cloth shit, like, WONDERFULLLL. Not a good idea to wear on a rainy day though. That's another blog, lol. Anyway, I hadda wear black leggings under the pants for the hole and cold n...shiz. But the pants brand is mossimo (funny story, I got them for like two or something, and found a buck in them...weird), I didn't have a tie or anything, so that didn't happen. Bu there ya go, my nerd 'fit for the ween of hallows. Oh, and the skull ring that was on my hand in the schoolgirl pic. I wear that thing almost religiously.

So, now I get to tell you lot about this other challenge I'm doing. It's on tumblr, and I'll link to it, later. It's called "No excuses november". Much better than no shave november, which I refuse to participate in. (lol, that's only for boys, anyway).

So, anysnooch, along with not cutting my hair at all 'til march (which reminds me that I have to get home in time to henna my hair again (yes, I'm going through that terrible messy process again..I can't believe myself...) I like how soft it makes my hair feel. I'll be doing these workouts every day in addition to jumping rope. I"m going to increase each week by another five minutes so I"m eventually doing 20 minutes a day. I like to jump rope, but I've been neglecting it 'cuz "I have no where to jump in the house!!!!" psych, there are three hard surfaces, but the kitchen is the most convenient. so, yeah. or I can jump on carpet, idk. anyway, no excuses, it's november and I'm jumping dammit!

kk, I think that's about all.

'til later, 'folks.

psyche, forgot to link the challenge....
