Ten Days Down!

And I am on track. I have run 100k’s in the last ten days and I feel great!

I was sore for the first day and then I was sore when I was running or just after. Now, it is just a good feeling. A better feeling is the one where I know that I am on track.

Ten days down, ninety to go!

Baby Shower

This Sunday just gone it was Jenna's Baby Shower for Baby X.

All us girls went up the Jenna's parents house for an afternoon of games, cupcakes, scones and fun.


Jaime, Natalie, Jenna, Me, Nic & Kelly
 We all had a try being blindfolded and putting a diaper on a teddy bear. It is so hard trying to put on a diaper when blindfolded. Jenna & my brother got so many presents for there new addition - who should be arriving very soon. It was a lovely way to end the weekend.

Day 29 - Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.

I am working to toward changing my weight. I have a goal weight, and I plan to get down to this weight.

Why? I want to be able to go to clothes stores and try on any piece of clothing that I want. I want to be in a healthy BMI range.

Day 28 - What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?

If I was pregnant I would being having a child. I would start saving every last cent that I possibly could. I would create an environment to raise my child in that was perfect, per say, where he or she could grow to be the most amazing human possible. He or She would be encouraged to do everything they ever wanted, learn to play the piano, learn to dance ballet or jazz, learn to speak french, learn to sculpt or pain. I would work my butt off to give my child every necessity possible, without spoiling Him or Her too much.

I would probably panic if I were to find out that I was pregnant. I would probably cry, tears of fear and joy. I would go home and tell my mother.

Day 27 – What’s the best thing going for you right now?

The best thing going for me right now is that I am going to be an aunty to the most amazing little boy in the world in just over a month. It's not a real biggy for most people but I am just so excited about it. Knowing that another family member is being added is so cool. Also, the fact that a human is actually growing inside another is freaking amazing. (note: I do know the process of reproduction, it just amazes me)

Day 26 - Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?

Being a teenager is one of the most difficult times in life a person goes through. Your body changes in ways it never has before. Things start happening to you that have never happened before. You start feeling things that have never been felt before, or they feel stronger than before.

You get angry easily, you get sad easily, you get stressed easily. You are scared of what is happening and then all of a sudden it is happening to everyone around you and they are feeling the exact same as you.

When I was a teenager I was one of many that thought it would be easier to not be around anymore. I can't clearly remember my exact thoughts at the time but I was very down on life and on myself.

One day something happened and I realised I wasn't the only one and I realised that there was a way through all the feelings and all the emotions.

Life is amazing - Live it and cherish it!

Day 25 - The reason you believe you’re still alive today

I believe I am still alive today as:
  1. My time has not come yet
  2. I have the best family and such amazing friends
  3. I know life is worth more than anything else I will ever be given.
