Sometimes we fall


I am a little disappointed in myself...I didn't stick with my goal to go to a Zumba class today. I was feeling pretty overwhelmed with homework and just didn't want to move, although I know it would have made me feel better. Luckily there is another class on Thursday and I made my boyfriend pinky promise me that he would make me go! Do any of you have advice for working out when you don't want to? Or just trying something new that you're a little unsure about? I mean I am really excited to try it don't get me wrong, but it's hard to make yourself try something new when you don't want to do anything at all!

Anways, since I didn't try a new class today I decided to tell you about my attempts to teach myself how to crochet. My mom taught me the basics ages ago and I've recently started to teach myself some new patterns. It has been frustrating, to say the least. It is really difficult to keep the correct gauge and make sure everything lines up right. The picture about is part of the piece I'm currently working on. It will be nine rectangles and than you join them together. I think it will be three blue, three purple and three light purple rectangles lined with a yarn that is a mixture of all three. It will be really beautiful if I'm ever able to finish!

Tomorrow my goal is to wear my "Free Hugs" shirt around campus. I wore it to Warped Tour and met quite a few interesting people because of it. I'm hoping it has the same affect here :)
