when you feel you have lost everything, you still have
- books
- unexpected kindness in strangers
- the rest of the world to travel
- languages to learn
- animals to take care of
- volunteer work to do
- the power of a good night’s rest
- the changing of seasons
- infinite things to learn
- billions of people to meet and possibly love
- billions of people who might love you back
Athletes train and eat, they don’t exercise and diet.

Pulling my hair out…
I have been so stressed with assignments at the moment - I cannot WAIT for this semester to be over already.
I was still finding time to get to the gym and do killer workouts every day but on Wednesday I woke up ridiculously sick! I can’t breathe properly and every time I try and go for a jog I end up spluttering something gross - it is just not ideal right now! I never thought I would be frustrated because I can’t actually exercise…bizarre but nice to feel!
Also, I weighed myself while I was sulking on Wednesday morning and according to the scales I’ve dropped approx 2kgs. This is much less than I was hoping for and I still feel so big and disgusting and I’m not loving it…but I guess it’s better than putting on weight.
It just would have been nice to have a little something more to show for the amount of time I have put into working my ass off in the gym, and by eating and drinking properly…i don’t know.
