Going To The Gym

There are so many possibilities.

Going To The Gym

Going to the gym can be a difficult thing. You have to be motivated to go. If you are not motivated, it can be hard to go, especially if you live far away. If you live closer, it is easier to get to the gym by car or by walking.

Going to the gym with a buddy can motivate you the most. They can push you to do better. You and your friend can make each other want to do more. Finding a friend who will work out with you can be a struggle, but after you do, it can be great.

When I was in high school, I went to the gym, but I did not like going. When I got there, it was OK, but I was not motivated to go, so I hardly went. It was not my favorite pastime. So after a while, my membership to the gym was canceled. Although this summer I decided to go back to the gym and now I like going.

There are so many things you can do at the gym. There are lots of cardio machines, ab machines, arms and legs machines. You can do all of them: arm workout one day, legs the next and cardio and abs the following day. That would be a great way to do all of the machines.

I like going to the different machines every time; of course, I have the same machines I go on regularly, but I like going to different ones also.

There are always great ways you should go to the gym, such as: losing weight, getting exercise and making you feel better. People like to feel good about themselves, so they like to look good, so they go to the gym.

The reason I think I didn’t like the gym in high school is because I thought people would judge me for what I was doing, so it wasn’t fun for me, but now I don’t care if people are judging me for what I’m doing. Everyone is just concerned about what they are doing. There are lots more machines I like now also.

Going to the gym can help you get your mind off things. It can help clear your mind of everything. You can just put music in your ears and zone out and go to a place that is good for you.

The only thing that bothers me about the gym is the people who just sit on the machines and do nothing or doing something on their phone like talking or texting. It is amazing how many of those people are there at the gym.

It is a great thing going to the gym. You get to get your mind off things, you can lose some weight and you may get a new perspective on things after you leave the gym. I am glad I got back to the gym to help me out in life. Everyone goes to the gym for their own personal reason, and they should be extremely proud of themselves.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
