Just the beginning.

Hello everyone!
So, as you've probably noticed, this blog is a bit on the random side! This is mainly due to the fact that I'm a human being, and have multiple, often different, interests! 
I have recently become more interested with my physical fitness, what food I eat, and just generally trying to adapt a more positive and healthy lifestyle. 
In doing this, I always find it easier to keep on track if I do it with somebody else. So I thought to myself, and decided that I would like to do a bit of a series, if you will, on my personal path to success. 
I know you're probably thinking..."Man this sounds lame...she's just going to talk about her feelings and stuff." WELL...I thought we could make this a little more interactive. 

This is going to be open to EVERYONE...those of you who are already fit, to those of you who are in progress, and to those of you who haven't even started, or are finding it hard to make such a drastic change in your life. I hope to post something in this series that will appeal to everyone, AND I also hope that you guys will leave me comments about tips you have, or if you've tried any of these ideas. 

This series will include:
-fitness and workout plans I've been using, or tips that I've heard from other people
-food, drinks and meals that I have been eating
-my tips for organizing and sticking with your plans and goals
-and hopefully a bit of an interactive aspect, with some Q&A and some tips from you guys!

So, let me know what you think guys. 
Sorry about all the colour changing...apparently it's one of those days!

See you soon
Bye~~

Rainy Days


Rainy Days
Hello again.

All week the weather has been amazing where I live, so I can't complain entirely. Although, I do have to admit that I'm a little disappointed that it's raining today. Nothing quite like waking up, looking out the window, ready to start your day....RAIN. 
I won't say that I hate rain, because there are occasions when I don't mind it. However, rain does tend to put a damper on any plans you might have, especially those involving the outdoors. 
When it does rain though, don't let it get your mood down. There are plenty of interesting things to do whilst it rains. 
Museums
I understand that not everyone enjoys museums, so before I go any further...not ALL of these suggestions will suit everyone's fancy. These are merely suggestions! 
As I was saying, museums can be a great way to spend those rainy days. First off, you're INSIDE, so that will prevent you from getting wet. Secondly, museums are not a place that most people would go to regularly, leaving you with plenty of options (depending on the size of your city/town). Just think of all the fun, and learning you could have on this rainy day!
Shopping Malls
Personally, I'm not the hugest fan of shopping, or the mall. However, during the rain, you will be indoors. However, if you are short on cash, and really shouldn't be spending any money, this might be a bad idea for you. If you have will power though, this could be a great day for some window shopping. 
Library
Check out your local library! Although it might seem super boring to some people, libraries are increasing updating their selections, and even including magazines and movies. Whilst you're there, grab the latest copy of your favourite magazine, take a seat, and enjoy the peace and quiet. 
Stay home!
I know I know, this was supposed to be a blog about what to DO when it's raining...you don't want to stay home! Yes, I know. However, there are lots of things to do within your own place! Spring is upon us, and for many, spring cleaning is not an option, nor a desire. BUT there's always something about a little rain that makes me want to clean...call me crazy. On top of that, take this opportunity to start some DIY projects that you might have been planning. OR prepare an amazing dinner. If you're stuck inside all day, why not make a delicious meal!?

Hope you guys enjoyed these few little tips of things to do when it's raining. Think of rain in a positive way. 
First, you don't have to water your grass OR your plants...mother nature's got it covered.
Second, your car, clean and looking brand new...minus those rust marks and missing bumper. 
Third, help to prevent droughts, and then there will be no fire bans this May 2-4 :D

Enjoy your rainy day everyone!
BYE.
