Life Update

It has been ELEVEN MONTHS since I last posted- OH MY GOSH. I have a lot to tell you.

I have definitely been reading less because I don't feel the same enjoyment that I used to from it which really saddens me. On the slightly upside, I've delved more into the world of k-dramas (although ironically as I mention this, I am on a hiatus). High school has brought with it a lot more maturity and a lot more friends I can rely upon and it's great. Making new friendships and strengthening old bonds are such amazing feelings. But, since last summer, I've been on a journey... to find the better me.

That summer, I found 'Blogilates' on YouTube. Don't know what that is? Search it on YouTube right now. It's a pilates channel run by Cassey Ho where she has a BUNCH of insane workouts. But the thing that separates her from the rest is her personality. She brings such life and joy wherever she goes, and she inspired me to start working out. I've always been skinny (except w/ a mini belly, haha) and have always been told to eat more. I admit, I workout to tone my body, so I can see my abs, quads, triceps, etc. But in the end of the day, it's so I can be healthier. I have a strict workout regiment now, all because of her, and I see crazy changes in every aspect of my life. I have also been eating healthier which means cutting out unnecessary carbs and grease (which is difficult because rice is present in every meal!) And, I have been trying to view life with a positive attitude and to turn my can'ts into cans. I try to be a better me and take on new challenges every day. It's scary, but it's the best feeling I could ever hope for.

I hope you guys discover something like Blogilates, that just lifts you off your feet and opens your eyes to numerous possibilities, unless you have already found it. I have definitely grown as a person, I've become stronger, and at the same time, more susceptible and open. So much has changed in a year, which excites me. I can't wait to see what comes next.

*mwah* Lots of love,
Jennifer
