Boom, Baby!

Today my academic adviser looked at my school schedule and said "Well, that's ambitious." Ha. Yeah, like I don't know that. I'm only a week and a half into the semester and I'm already more on the sinking side of swimming. 17 credits with anatomy and physiology in one semester. Sure, James G. has done it. But do I look like James? I think not.
But seriously. Although 17 credits has taken away any chance I had of having a relaxing semester, I'm in my element. I'm going to school. I'm taking care of my home. And I have the man I love at my side. It's really a wonderful thing. Life just keeps getting better. And hopefully, I won't kill that feeling by being a lamewad this semester and failing all of my classes.
Speaking of... in my Mental Aspects of Sports class today, Doc Gordin was talking about stresses athletes might experience. And he said one thing they need to do, one thing we all need to do, is to turn Ps to Cs. We need to turn problems into challenges. For example, I can look at school in two different ways. 1. "Oh crap, 17 credits!!! I'm gonna fail everything!!" OR 2. "17 credits. Bring it on." I choose number 2. Cuz it sounds like way more fun than failing everything. Don't you think? Anyway, despite taking on more than I probably should, I think this semester is going to be epic, one way or another.
/semi-inspirational rant.
Soo... remember how I always used to pretend that I was totally awesome (which I still am, by the way) and could kick anyone's butt? Well although the awesome part was true, the butt kicking wasn't so much. But soon, I will actually be a force to be reckoned with. Boys and girls, with the help of the good people at USU, I will soon be a kickboxing machine. One of the requirements for my major is to take 3 different PE courses. My first one is kickboxing, and let me tell you, it so totally rocks. Sure, I'm sore every day, and sure, I lack coordination, but I am having so much fun. It's a totally amazing workout, and it really is a blast. I encourage all of you to try it out at least once. I knew it would kick my butt back into shape, but I didn't know how much fun it would be. For real.
Anyway kiddies, it's been fun. I really have enjoyed this. I'm starting to remember why I used to like blogging so much. Sometimes it's just fun to say what you want to say, even if no one is listening.
Peace out.
