Hey hey hey hey HAAY! Happy Friday everyone.
Let’s talk about how this week dragged. Actually no, scratch that. I’ve been complaining too much on this here blog here and that needs to stop! Let’s talk about the positive things from my week. No pictures, just words. Ok and some Ecards
Food:
I wish I took more pictures of my food, but then again I don’t because that means more time between my food being on my plate and my food being in my belly. As much as I’ve been on a budget this year, I’ve found ways to make some pretty delicious dinners. Oh and Annie’s white cheddar mac and cheese has found its way into my kitchen recently, albeit quite doctored up with loads of spinach and onions but still, why did it take me so long to try this stuff? Yea it’s still boxed and processed and high in sodium but c’mon, the convenience factor is what sold me.
Exercise:
I think I’m slowly finding my groove again. My booty and thighs are dying from all the squats and lunges I did on Tuesday, but I love it. That just means my butt CAN look better, and it will, I just have to keep doing these damn lunges. I swear they are the single best thing you can do for your butt. And in south Florida, your butt is your everything, hellooooo latina competition. Oh and I did manage to get in my weekly yoga yesterday, probably will again tomorrow because I’m at like a 9 on the slouch-factor scale.
Internship:
Week one of two at WIC has passed, and I survived… mostly by just weighing and measuring pregnant ladies and little babies all week. I mentioned that I was placed at one of the south, like SOUTH, Miami facilities, which means two things, 1) long commute and 2) all Spanish. I’m serious, every single person is either bilingual or hardly speaks English so 95% of the time they’re speaking Spanish. I took years and years of the language throughout K-12 but if you don’t use it you lose it and I am struggling to even figure out what everyone is saying all day. But interestingly enough I like it, it’s challenging and my brain is finally starting to kick into Spanish mode a little bit. It’s funny because what you learn in school is not like it is in real life.. conversational Spanish is totallyyy different.
Coffee:
On a related note, Cuban’s know their coffee. Everyday at 3pm, one of the guys in the office yells “CAFE LISTO!” and comes around to everyone with a little shotglass-sized-cup and pours a shot of this delicioso coffee… thick, strong and sweet. It’s so addicting but is crazy caffeinated so you have to be careful. I usually only have one, sometimes two little shots of it otherwise I’m up all night.
Life in general:
I was supposed to be going down to Key West tomorrow to visit a friend but plans got a little hazy and we aren’t going anymore. After a rainy and stormy few days, the weather is supposed to be fabulous this weekend so I am a leeettle-bit bummed but no mind, I’ll just spend my Saturday by the pool to make up for it! And maybe go to the beach, but it’s still spring breaker season so everything is crazy over there, we shall see.
All things considered, it was a pretty good week. And it’s now almost 3am because I came home at about 6pm and crashed on the couch for a solid four-hour nap… so I ate dinner at 11pm and probably won’t fall asleep again for a while.
How was your week?
