Do work!
I need to start doing p90x again or SOMETHING. I have this itch to buy a gym membership and wake up at like 5 AM a few days a week.
I miss the gym but I also can’t justify spending so much money when I could get an almost (probably) better work out just staying at home with p90x or going for a run…

Soccer Pet Peeves
I wish women were not the less dominant species…yes, I said it. We are. I feel like I’m the last resort in most of my small-sided coed soccer games and it’s quite frustrating. Play the ball to my feet and I can do whatever…send me passes that require me to out-sprint a dude…not going to happen.

The Year of Big Moves and No Ideas
2011 has been an eventful year for me. I deem it “The Year of Big Moves and No Ideas”…mainly because after graduating from undergrad and backpacking through Costa Rica for 2 weeks in 2010, I moved to my brother’s couch in NYC, got dumped by my boyfriend, got sick and rejected from jobs (A LOT), got my dream job as a Soccer Coach and another job as a server at an awesome...
