gym

September 7, 2010~ Etc.

i just got back from the gym. i sound so hard core and a regular gym-goer but i assure you i’m sooooo not. my brother who left to rochester a few weeks ago gave me his so that’s the only reason why i own one. the only exercise i usually get is laughing throughout the day and pushing the kids on the swing. the last time i did real exercise? i did pilates for about 10 mins. a few months after i had adalie. adalie is turning 3 in two months. haha. so embarrassing i know.

so tonight was the first time i went with my gym pass. i looked up the class schedule online and saw that they offered power yoga at 9:30 p.m. so after i put ana to sleep(jay puts adi to sleep), i left to the gym. well, turns out the yoga class had just ended, for it started at 8:30(am i dyslexic?) and it was the last class of the day. i came in my pajama shorts, a zipper hoodie and a tank top, and my slippers a.k.a flip flops(jay says since i’m married to a guy from hawaii, it’s a disgrace if i call it flip flops instead of slippers.) and lastly, my hair was down. i think everyone could tell this was my frist time. i awkwardly stood in the middle of the gym and looked around as people were lifting weights and i felt so out of place. i would never dare to even try to use one since i have no idea how it works! i thought about just leaving but then that would make me look more like a fool so i looked around more and saw the elliptical machine and thought to myself, “oh yeah, i forgot gyms have treadmills and elliptical machines! now that i know how to use!” so i went to the very back corner and did 2 miles on level 1. i tried level 2 for a few mins. but my calves started to hurt.
i’m so hard core, i know. oh and the picture above? people always confuse me with her but i assure you she’s not.
*note to self: next time put my hair up, wear tennis shoes, and buy those striped athletic shorts all the girls were wearing.
