Crossing my fingers on this one

Pre-warning this post will not have very many pictures! It'll have none. I just want to tell you how things are going.

It would appear the sun is shining in my corner of the boxing ring. So basically without all the stupid vagueness my life has turned around for the better.

It happened in a few processes really over a four month span. It started rocky, which should be no surprise consider the events of my year. I had no job, I had no social life, I rarely left my house, and I was very depressed. All those things leading to the last.

Then after a set of very revealing conversations, I discovered this weren't actually what they appeared to be. Now, that store is much more then I would care to share. Since then, it's been up!

I have reconnected with someone very special to my future, and it would seem that despite the road we took was filled with a lot of huge holes, we are managing to do things right and both of us are happy. You might see this person on my blog in the future, so keep an eye out!

I am moving back to my favourite city, and school soon. Like in the next day or so. Though finances are a bit rocky, I now have faith that stuff like that will work out. And hopefully in time to pay the bills. (crossing my fingers on this one)

I guess a few things I've learned this whole month is
1. Things aren't always what they seem. 
2. People will lie to you, so remember who you SHOULD trust. 
3. Love rekindles, even when you think you don't deserve it
4. Life will turn around, no matter what curve balls it wants to throw at you. 

Has anything turned around for you lately?

I decided to cut all my hair off.

Change is never a bad thing we can always agree. Early in high school. I decided to cut all my hair off. Completely.

I loved my hair at this length. Easy to wash, easy to style. And a plus - this is my natural hair colour. So weird...

I then decided that perhaps it was a time for change all together.

I had a slightly maroon colour before this purple shade - but this purple shade was an in between.

Then I switched to my favourite colour I have ever had it. Copper red. Now notice that the sides of my hair is very short. This was before I shaved it completely! Hence why the growing process has been a bit slow!

I then made the decision to bleach my hair blonde. It was the colour I liked the least. It just washed me out badly! Here is my hair starting show some length. Yay!

This is how my hair started it's journey.

And after 5 months, it has made great progress!

Though you can't see the back. It's about midway down my neck. And has made it's way half way down my ear! Getting very excited about the new change.

What you are changing about yourself? Or in general.

"GO OUT AND GET YOUR MOTHER SOMETHING NICE, BITCHES"

I have been on a new track. A healthy one!

From changes in dietary habits. To a whole new fitness routine. Life has been pretty busy. Not really, don't listen to me. It is sometimes unwise to listen to me.

Mostly in an effort to make my life slightly better on all fronts from emotional to physical I've changed my lifestyle. Note previous blog posts about change. *

The past several mornings I have consumed plenty of good healthy food. Oatmeal; pre-made, unfortunately, mixed with almond milk; might I add this is the best milk I have ever tasted, and topped with strawberries and blueberries with a side of peanut butter for added protein.

 On top of eating more healthy alternatives, I've turned a fitness routine. Mind you, I don't have a home gym or a regular gym close by. So I have to make due.

In the morning, I do 40 of each exercise, I do this twice a day. The goal is not ultimately weight loss, but the tightening of some unflattering areas. Then each evening just before sun-down, a run. Up and down twice. Work a up a good sweat!




Nothing in this world is completely out of reach if you are willing to put the work in. And, a recommendation, if you plan to exercise and parts of your body hurt more so then they should, stop. In the beginning the parts of your body you begin to exercise will hurt. I've found that a lot of the times people promote pushing your body to your limits. However, if you feel sore in an unusual way, stop. Being healthy is the goal.

As I continue to spend my summer being fit and healthy, and look for a job. Although, I didn't all the way follow my routine today. Shush, I told you to ignore those things. You should look for your own ways to improve your life, whatever your goals may be!



And, tomorrow is Mother's Day...

Go out and get your mother something nice, bitches!

What are you changing this summer?
