An Experiment

2014. When I started this blog forever and a day ago, I thought I'd be so good and write all the time! It ended up like my journal... Rare and far between. But I have something I want to document!

So my life has not exactly ended up like I expected. And I'm grateful for it. My Heavenly Father has given me so much guidance and helped me grow more than I thought I could. I have a stronger testimony of the gospel than ever, and my confidence in myself and who I am makes me smile. I actually really like myself. (Not sure if that's appropriate to say; hope you take it in the right light :) ). But right now I kind of find myself floundering in my life. Not sure what to do when I get home from work. Therefore... I'm doing something kind of fun that I'm pretty stoked for!

I asked one of my class periods to give me an assignment of something fun to do every night. Preferably inexpensive, since I do live on meager teacher's salary, and something that doesn't take more than an hour (except for weekends). Then I'm to report back to them the next day and tell them how it went. They've created this big long list that I will expect will get longer (they are dang creative!) and today's challenge was ZUMBA!

Which was extremely fortunate because I had a zumba class offered at my gym tonight at 6:30, which is way later than I usually go: it's super packed at that time! And I walked in and the music was pumping and I was like WOOOO!!! I LOVE ZUMBA! Haha. J/k. No, but seriously. I was stoked. Gosh it's been forever since I've danced like that! I mean, I love any kind of dancing, and I've been too busy to go for a while, but the latin beat and hip shaking and all that. It's so dang fun! I was smiling from ear to ear for the whole time! Except when I was huffing and puffing cause it's been like a month since I've been to the gym. Geez I was pink in the face... Which if you know me, is kind of a big deal; doesn't happen often. And best news yet...

I made a friend! I know, kind of a pathetic best news, but not really because I haven't made many new girl friends (especially ones I can go to the gym with) since I first moved to my new apartment back in August. So, I'm going again on Saturday and hopefully every week from now on. And I hope I don't get bored of it too fast... cause I think that's what happened last time I started going to ZUMBA.

So hopefully I'll be able to recount my adventures pretty regularly. I can't promise anything, especially since I'm probably going to be pretty busy studying for my insane PRAXIS test and working and stuff. But who knows? Life is just crazy, and I really don't know anything most of the time.
