stormy then beautiful 4/29/06

I am having another lazy day. I didn't even attempt to make it to the gym today. Today started out left over stormy weather from last night and now it is plain gorgeous. I went to see what White Rock Lake is like and it is really nice, but it is full of bikers! I had to really watch my way driving. Two more days of class time and then just final exams to give. It is difficult to concentrate on anything at this point. Ahh. I swear I will make it to the gym tomorrow!

lazy day 4/27/06

As the semester comes to an end, I am more distracted by fun and special events. Today there was a special meeting for officers of Japan Club that started at 5. At this point, I am already giving up any chance to hit the gym. However I made it after all, but all I did was just lay down in the steam bath. But I took good 45 minutes from where the point I turn to go home and I actually get home. I know I have some serious work to do, but my students must be having a harder time. I am quite ready to finish up my first year back as a university Japanese teacher. Tomorrow is a weekly shopping day. They have some Mexican folk dance at the university on Saturday. I want to go, but I don't know if I actually do. The following weekend is Cinco de Mayo weekend and I will make it to Oak Cliff. Recently without fail, I get spoken in Spanish at the store, so I will play being Marisol Moreno and enjoy Hispanic part of me, I guess.

lying leg curl 4/24/06

I haven't written for a while, but I have been exercising. I gave the last chapter exam for the second year and I have forgotten about tomorrow's first year's reading material, but I have managed to get to the gym rather early today. Bad part of going after school is the gym is busy and I don't get to use the machine or weights when I want. Yesterday my favorite leg curl machine, sitting, was taken, so I decided to do lying version. I try to avoid as much as I can because it feels actually hard. I tried 40 pounds as I recall from the old gym, I felt it a lot. So I am feeling it today, too. Because today was back day with no ab, I get to spend a lot of time stretching. So it was a good workout day.
