Goodbye For Now

Hey guys! I know I have been MIA for the past week, so I thought that I would let you know what's been going on.

With finals right around the corner, as well as my internship coming to and end, I have just been swamped with work and school. While I can honestly say that I would much rather be blogging then working at this point (I am tired!!!), I know that I need to finish strong this next month.

So I have some bad news…

I will not be blogging until I have finished with school. :( I know, it's okay to tear up a little- I did, too. ;)

I will be back in June with some awesome updates of my life! I'm talking about graduation, moving out, new jobs, the whole shabang!

Until then, though, I will have to say goodbye for now!

Have a great May!

See ya~ Kay

The Life of a Procrastinator

Well- it is Monday again! The start of another week & I am actually really ready for the week. Not too sure why but, hey, I am not asking any questions!

Maybe it was because I had a great weekend, perhaps?

Weekend Recap

Friday~

Workout: Crossfit Style Workout + 2 Mile Run

I spent most of my day at work & training a few clients. Another day, another dollar. It doesn’t feel like I train people to get paid, though, so I suppose that saying doesn’t really apply to me. Smile Anyway, moving along…

Angels Game Opening Day 2013

Then, my sister suckered me into a baseball game after work. And, by suckered, I mean she mentioned she was going to the game with her boyfriend and my dad, aunt, and I decided to tag along. Winking smile I made sure to wear my Tori Hunter jersey to represent my love for him- even though he was playing for the Tigers. BOOOO!

Saturday~

Workout: Plyometrics workout w/ Kevin

I spent most of my day hanging out and relaxing- something I desperately needed! After training, Kevin and I went to the pool because the weather was beautiful. Gotta love April in So Cal!

Sunday~

Workout: 5 Mile HIIT Run + 1 Mile Walk

421 5 Mile Run

I tried something new- I did sprint intervals that sort of simulated a HIIT workout. (High Intensity Interval Training) Oh my goodness, was this an awesome workout! Usually, Saturdays or Sundays are my long run days. However, I have been trying to get more quality miles, rather then quantity. I sure did break a mean sweat during this run!

Lucilles 421

After my workout, Kevin and I met up for lunch at Lucille’s. I do not know why we don’t just order 1 entrée and share- they have the BIGGEST portions here! I got the mardi gras chicken which was delightful, but could only eat about 1/8 of the mashed potatoes because I am a normal person who can’t eat 5 potatoes in one sitting. Winking smile

The rest of my Sunday was spent cooking, watching baseball, and shopping= 3 of my favorite things! All in all, it was a great weekend.

With the OC Half Marathon coming up in just 2 short weeks, I am getting a tad bit nervous. I haven’t really decided how I am going to run this race- to PR or not to PR, that is the question. Knowing me, I will decide the night before. I think I will just run conservatively for the first 3 miles and then go crazy for the last 10.1- sound good?

The life of a procrastinator, let me tell you. You know those times when you have an important event to prep for 3 months away? You tell yourself that you won’t put it off until the last minute, swear that you will be on top of it and prepared. And, before you know it, you’re 2 weeks away from that super important event and realize you haven’t run a 10 miler, yet? Um- I mean, finished your project?

That pretty much sums me up.

Alright, enough running talk, I must go finish my meal prep for the week. See you all lovely people on Wednesday!

Question.

  • Have you gone to a baseball game this season, yet?
  • Are you a procrastinator?
  • What is your favorite thing to eat at a BBQ restaurant?

See ya~Kay
