My Fitness Journey..so far.

I have been going to the gym actively for about a year and a half now and I LOVE it. You can definitely see progress in the above picture! That is the exact reason I love progress pictures haha

I have only been lifting heavy for a year or so. It's the little things like the fact that I've gained 5 lbs of muscle, I am tightening up in places, and I am always increasing the weight I can lift- which is way more weight than when I started. ;)

I FEEL GREAT. I joined the gym with a goal to "tone up" and now that thought has me shaking my head. I would walk up the stairs and get out of breath, I was always tired and constantly felt lazy.

Now my goal is to eat clean and get muscles, muscles, muscles!

I am so excited for the next journey I am going to pursue in the fitness world. It's on a totally different level and I AM SO EXCITED. I can't wait to share with everyone...soon. :)

5am Wake Up Call

Yesterday morning, I woke up to a loud banging on my door. I was instantly a little nervous when I saw it was only 5 am.
I tiptoed to the door and looked out the peephole. A security guard? No, that's the police. What the heck are the police doing here? Did I do something bad recently? Hmm....can't remember anything.

I opened the door and being half asleep, I don't think I even said hello or anything. I just kept looking at them. 



They showed me this crazy lady's picture because she is a wanted person and I guess they thought the butt crack of dawn would be a good time to look for her.



She apparently lived in my apartment- now I want to scrub everything and possibly hide. I really wanted to ask why they had to come that early though. {Insert grumpy emoji} 

I went back to bed and snap chatted all my friends/family telling them that I was just questioned. Everyone thought bad things so I made up stories to go along with their crazy ideas. So gullible, I tell ya. 

Two Weeks and A Raise

About 2 weeks ago , I got a new morning job. I am working in an office at a wellness cosmedical clinic. I actually really like it and I already got a raise!!!

Being excited about going to work and getting to dress up is really fun :)

That would be me..

I am struggling with creating work outfits because I have to wear a lot of black and neutral colors but that is part of the fun. I might try to blog my outfits but yeah good luck with that right.

Happy weekend!

Last Night, I Had a Date..

....with myself.

I love selfies :) 

Last night, I decided I was going to walk around Main Street and eat out. I have been doing well about only eating out on the weekends.

I choose In-N-Out...delicious! Everyone who doesn't have one near you should be very sad, it is so good.

I walked around Main Street and found some cute little shops to look in. I have become a pro at window shopping but I found so many cute things I could wear!

I walked out on the Pier (which was so chilly) to this little restaurant called Ruby's and got a chocolate milkshake. We are talking 620 calories of yum.

It was starting to get dark so I quickly walked my little booty back to the creepy parking garage and back to the safety of my car. :P I was the only one walking alone besides this old grandpa, BUT I don't care.

It was fun and I imagine it will be even more fun if I ever go with a friend. :)

The sunset is always beautiful at the beach! Happy Saturday :)

Oh HEY.

Hey blog, long time no talk.

It is getting so nice outside so my desire to blog or read blogs goes from about 20% to 5% because I would rather be outside and I suck at blogging anyways :)
This is proof that I actually do blog, I just never post them. Most of them are 3/4 finished, I should finish them..... ;)

{ONE} My friend's wedding was two weekends ago, I'm sad I missed it but I'm SO happy for her. She looked beautiful.
My wedding date was last weekend and I didn't even feel the urge to get totally wasted, I'd say that's an improvement...and a relief that I'm still single :P

{TWO} My mom is coming to visit in 2 weeks. I'm excited and making a long list of things for us to do!

{THREE} 
I still don't have a full time job but I have had quite a few interviews so I'm hoping that things are starting to look up!

{FOUR} Isn't this picture the cutest?! I miss the residents at my old nursing home! Let's be honest, old people can be such cuties :)

{FIVE}
I'm sad that watermelon Oreo's are already gone. They were SO GOOD.

I Look Like a Tomato

#weekendselfie

Now that I live in California, it's expected that I am tan. So I laid out at the beach for 2 hours on Saturday and got a nice sunburn! 

I was trying to ease into a tan but nope, red red red. It was only the back of my legs so I went out yesterday and got my front a little red too. At least, I match now :) 

The lighting stinks but it was as bad as it looks. There is a definite line. :O 
It was in the 90's this past week and it was HOT. I think it's going to be a sweaty summer without air conditioning! Hence the undies picture... #sorrynotsorry Now you can see that I don't have a booty :P 

This didn't end up happening because I don't have friends who actually want to play beer pong with me. They are weird and use the term get "turned up," which is the word for get drunk in case you were clueless like me. The boys didn't like that I bought these blue balls. Guess it's a sensitive topic. :) 

I have been going to church and it's the perfect place to wear pretty dresses. The one I wore this week was a little ugly but I wore it anyways :)

I think that is enough randomness for today. Have a lovely Monday, if that's actually possible!!
