hani_backup...for everybody else, anyway! :-P All my classes are Mon, Weds and Friday. So today has been errands. I'm going to start tutoring again Thursday.
I woke at 7am with an upset stomach but sucked it up. At 7:45am I trekked to Matt's dorm room across campus and at 8am we went to the Sports Center.
To exercise.
I was the one who suggested it, in a moment of foolishness in the van on Sunday. I was like "Hey, since you want to move your workouts to the morning, why don't you and I work out Tuesdays and Thursdays since I've no classes!" Argh, tongue ran away from me. Matt's going to work out every morning, apparently. Crazy.
On the elliptical I ran a mile in 11 minutes and 48 seconds! I beat my previous best! I don't remember exactly what it was, but during PE classes a long, long time ago, my mile-run was always above 12 minutes. Probably around 13-14 minutes. Then I did some free weights. Unfortunately the Sports Center has only one 3lbs weight, so I had to make do with that. I didn't want to push it up to 5 lbs. I did some exercises for biceps, triceps, shoulders and upper back. If I only remembered the names... >_> Then I used the machines for chest presses, shoulder presses and twisting torso thingy for my abdomen/obliques.
When I recall the proper names, I should probably do a proper log. It'd be nice to gain more strength in my body. I'm not stretching a lot besides relaxing muscles before I exercise- flexibility isn't a priority to me right now. Yoga or pilates (sp?) are things I'm not interested in, at the moment.
The shower afterwards was a relief, let me tell you! I ran some errands and got library stuff. At![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hana_ginkawa 'S place I downloaded Lady Gaga's "The Fame Monster," (my college cuts our bandwidth if we download too much) but I had it waiting for me at the library. I was just impatient... Hee. Anyway, I imported it onto my iTunes so I have double copies of all songs.
I absolutely love her songs "Monster" and "Dance In the Dark." I've already played "Monster" at least, what, 70 times according to my last.fm profile.
I'm apprehensive about tomorrow, since I have class at 8:45am to 12:20pm, then 2:00-3:50pm. My brain might burn out. I hope I don't oversleep my first class. It's with one of my advisors. Eeek. And I have another class with my main advisor, too.
Wish me luck, please!
