Okay, I know it's almost February but I am starting my new year's resolution as of now! The whole point of this blog is to stick with it and hold myself to continuing, and finishing what I've started. Seeing as I've been M.I.A. for about 6 weeks shows that my resolution for Self Discipline is very fitting. Lack of self discipline has been an apparent pattern in my life. Putting off blogging over the holidays is a clear example! Self discipline will be applied to all aspects of my life including relationships, eating, exercising and overall personal growth. You will be happy to hear that I've been doing a couple of things! First off, Zumba! I love exercise and I love to dance so putting the two together an only be better right?! Wrong. I see how it is a fun way to get a little exercise in, however the key word here is a little. The instructor was an amazing dancer but I realize now that personally, I much more enjoy aerobic classes that are more structured with steps and routine. Zumba was very easy going with little structure. It included a great deal of pelvic thrusting and booty pops. Yes my heart rate was up but I wasn't working up a sweat. It may be fun with friends, but generally not my cuppa' tea!
Now on to the highlight of my new year so far! Drop in volleyball at the rec centre! I was IN LOVE with volleyball in highschool and I've rekindled the romance! I have always been a bit envious of my husband's love for playing hockey. He gets so much enjoyment out of it and its something he can be proud of. I spoke with a friend that I haven't been in touch with for awhile who invited me to come play on Thursdays. If you've been reading my blog, you'll know that I really wanted to go but was intimidated and afraid of looking foolish. After all, its been about 7 years since I've played. I made myself go, convincing myself that I would try and have fun no matter what and knowing that it's something I could blog about. I picked it up again pretty quickly and had such a great time. I didn't realize how much I loved it until I was on my way home, blasting Chris Brown's "Forever" and dancing in my seat. I was in an incredible mood and it was because I have found a new hobby. This is something I KNOW I will continue doing. I am so excited to keep playing and improving. It is also helping my friend and I stay in touch which is true to my self discipline resolution by keeping and improving relationships in my life.
SERRR-VICE!
