Going To The Gym, As Told By Michelle From Full House

Put on your big girl panties and give it a try.

Going To The Gym, As Told By Michelle From Full House

I have a love/hate relationship with going to the gym and this is why.

Surprisingly, I would rather sit on the couch with my dog, do homework, or go to class than go to the gym. I should be sorry, but I'm not.

Getting ready for the gym is hard work. I have to put on perfectly good clothes, knowing that I'm just going to have to wash them and myself when I get done. What a hassle, am I right?



Then I get to thinking of the food I could be eating instead of going to the gym. Again, not sorry.

I finally get to the gym and my body is literally laughing at me. There are people in there who could eat me for breakfast.

Time to recruit someone who will make me go to the gym and be successful, yeah! So I recruit my boyfriend. This is going to go great.

I'm so ready for this. I'm motivated and I know I'm just going to get stuff done.

So my boyfriend starts going over all these workouts we're going to do and I'm so ready.

I start the workouts...this is where the fun begins.

I'm trying really hard, but this is a joke, but he says I'm doing well. (LOL)

I tried to do one more rep as my ever so loving boyfriend was encouraging (and slightly aggravating) me and I couldn't move. My arms froze and he laughed at me.

But, hey, at least I tried, right?

He says we can leave as I'm praying I can reach my arms up far enough to get my keys off the wall and it's the best thing I've heard in the past hour.

I get home and of course (DUH) I'm hungry. I just sit in the kitchen waiting for food to come to me because I'm too tired to do anything else.

But in the end, I'm thankful he made me act like a big girl, even though I could barely move my arms for the next week because in the end/spring break it'll all be worth it.

P.S. Never do arm day with boys. NEVER.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
