Chaos
That is the best word to describe my life right about now. Everything is happening both good and bad and I’m having a hard time keeping up. I simultaneously want everything to slow down and fast forward at the same time.
I am currently planning trips to The Dominican Republic (in 4 days?!?!), Thailand (study abroad), and Australia (Melbourne + Sydney to visit a friend after Thailand.) Now...

Some advice?
Hello! So a lot of things have happened in the last week that I promise to fill you in on BUT as I’ve been getting an average of 2 hours of sleep a night because of the amount of work I have to do I don’t really have time to sit here and write it all! Excuses excuses I know! BUT I’m still doing well. I’m eating extremely well, mostly because I can’t exercise with the...
Is it just me
Or are girl scout cookies not as good as they used to be?

It's easy to forget
This week has been a shock for sure.
We get a call from my brother and his best friends mom had died. She was 55 and it took us completely by surprise. She seemed perfectly healthy. It’s so scary that someone who is the exact age as my parents could die so quickly. She called her husband saying she was short of breath, had her neighbor drive her to the hospital and she had a heart attack...

Egg Muffins
I’ve seen recipes for egg muffins around but I didn’t get around to making them until today after I saw them on Pintrest.
I used this recipe but halved everything since my muffin pan only holds 6 rather than 12 muffins. I also decided to use bacon and spinach instead of the sausage and broccoli. Partly because it seemed easier/faster and partly because it’s what I had around...

Anonymous asked: Hey jin! I see on your photo that you ran a race! What kind of race was it? And where did you run it ?

Tumblr is good for the soul
I got to thinking tonight and I think that Tumblr has not only helped me learn about health and fitness, inspired me, given me great recipes, and tons of race recaps but it has given me actual real life role models.
As a 21 year old female I am pretty much the target audience for advertisements with thin models, impossibly beautiful actresses, and seemingly “perfect” singers...

Tried to go to the gym this morning
But it was PACKED!!! omg. I guess it’s what I expected. You couldn’t get on any of the cardio machines or any of the weight machines. It was ridiculous! The track was pretty crowded but I figured that if I was going to run I’d rather run outside later. I’ve learned my lesson!
Crazy!!

2011
2011 definitely wasn’t my best year. I can’t say that I’m sad to see it go. There’s been ups and downs. I started the year in a pretty deep depression. I was feeling sorry for myself, I felt like a failure, and I was lonely.
Even though 2011 wasn’t my best year, I learned from it. I learned that I have people who love me, I learned that I can do something if I put...

To the gym or the library...
that is the question.
I had an exam today and then came back and had a nice 3 hour nap. I’ve been running errands/chilling out since then but I have a really hard and important exam on Thursday at 8am. I’m currently trying to decide whether to go to the gym or the library. I know what I should do and what I want to do… I might go to the library then go running/to the gym...
I only have 2 more exams!
I’m so excited to be done in 3 days!! yayyy
Exam time is soooo hard to eat well. I’ve been keeping apples and clementines around me to make sure I don’t reach for the cheetos but we’ll see how that goes.
I’m also having to deal with all of my friends wanting to eat with me before we go home for xmas break! sooo much eating out. I might try to get to the gym...

Balance
is definitely hard to come by.
I’ve always had somewhat of an addictive personality. Not with drugs or alcohol or anything like that but with subject or actions. I become obsessed (OBSESSED) with book series, movies, music, reading, actors…people (I crush hard.) I get consumed with something for a while and it’s all I can think about. But then I get burnt out, I get bored...
