Obtainable Goals: Conquering the RSF & Food Finds & Forever21 order

I've decided to switch back or rather add some more easily obtainable goals.
One of which is to try every single Group-X exercise class offered by the RSF (the campus gym) at least once by the end of the semester or at the very least, this summer -- although I must say, the caveat might be the aqua classes given I don't have swimwear here and classes in Hearst Gym....

In the past, I have tried:
Bollywood -- quite fun but the steps can get complicated
Cardio Kickboxing -- whew, what a work out, I couldn't even make it through the whole session
Some yoga class but I can't remember which one -- it was so slow, I almost fell asleep

This semester, I have tried:
Nia -- quite fun, the instructor was super nice and it was a lot about grounding yourself and finding yourself
Toning Express -- quite intense and quick too, only 30 minutes!

This week alone, I have tried:
Power Yoga -- Not bad, not too rigorous either -- there was a focus on aligning your breath with your movements
Core Blast -- super intense, I couldn't make it through a session but man, what a sweat-dripping work out
Body Toning -- pretty neat and it was definitely a good work out -- not as intense as core blast but definitely a class I would attend again

In regards to food adventures... when you take chances, sometimes you hit a jackpot, sometimes, you don't.

Like today for instance, when I wanted a VitaminWater but couldn't find it so I decided to be adventurous and try this:
Sobe Lifewater in black and blue berry

Clearly, from my face, this is a no for me. This is single-handedly one of the most hideous drinks I have ever had in my life. Yes, I realize this refers to sight and no, I'm not critiquing the design, if anything, the design is quite quirky. It's just the taste is so disgusting that it affects more than just my sense of taste. Hence, it's hideous. I can't even look at it cause it's so gross.

The 0 calories should have scared me away... oh wells. The initial taste isn't bad, but the aftertaste is just horrible, like swallowing a bag of splenda. Some people may be okay with it, but I definitely am not.

Also, came back from the gym to a nice surprise -- my Forever21 order came in, yayyyy!
I would take a picture of my purchases but unfortunately, I haven't showered yet.

Off to a successful Friday, I go!!!!

Oh Janice, young child with almond eyes, why do you look like a nut, when you smile? Your round head and pale skin, I think you look like a fresh peanut. Your "mama hang" whine is fresh and refreshing But your smell is not. Why oh why, does Janice smile with almond eyes?

Re:My Last Post & It Gets Better & Goodbye Friend & Health

I apologize for the incompleteness of my last post. I was quite upset when it happened suddenly. Sigh. Oh well, life goes on. Word of warning, most likely, I don't have your (or anyone's) phone number. Please text/call me sometime :) ___ Regarding: It Gets Better We had a discussion on Chela Sandoval's differential consciousness in class on Thursday. In the most simplest terms, differential consciousness refers to the "practitioner’s ability to read the current situation of power and self-consciously choosing and adopting the ideological stand best suited to push against its configurations, a survival skill well known to oppressed peoples." It is the ability to think and operate in different gears because of the limitations inherent in a singular mode of thinking. My professor then proceeded to briefly discuss the "It Gets Better" Project that derived out of the suicides of teenagers who had been bullied because of their sexual orientation a...
