Life Without My Job
Is going much better, and luckily I’ve picked up a heap of classes to fill the hole at the moment. Loving it, but at the same time feeling stuffed, while also appreciating having afternoons to recover. I’m doing 13 permanent classes now………..3 pump, 3 combat, 7 balance……..with a few fill ins here and there. [...]
Nike Free
After much talk on the forum about Nike Free shoes, I found some on special. Been dying to try them out for ages. They are sooooo comfy! Wore them in combat last night, and again this morning……..I’m hooked.
You can move around so much better in them than in Shox. Sticking with the Shox for Attack [...]Hung Up
Well, today I was supposed to do an attack performance in a shopping centre as a promotion for Zest run by Nova (an Adelaide radio station). Me and another instructor were told where to turn up at a said time, however when we got there……….there was no Nova to be seen.
After many phone calls back [...]Shadowing attack
Ouch, Shadowed in an attack class for the first time tonight, and damn it’s slightly tougher going when you can’t pull back
Had a bad stitch the entire way through aswell, which I think was cuz I wasn’t breathing properly. Can’t imagine talking through an entire class aswell (and talking is my forte) ????
Have [...]Shadowed attack again
Shadowed attack again last night. There was 3 of us on stage, with the other 2 team teaching. Did most of BA48, love that release (thank god they ditched ABC….so glad of that, think that’s cuz I told Jo I can’t stand that track, haha).
Tonight was the first time I did heel jacks on the [...]Forgot How Hard Voodoo Child Is!
Damn, I’ve been doing “Ready To Go” for squats all week, and so last night I thought it would be a good progression to Voodoo Child. I’m doing a “Put on Weight For Summer” Pump Challenge at the moment, and these hard tracks are to help us increase our weights.
But DAMN, Voodoo Child STILL hurt! [...]Saturday night
OMG!!!! I got asked for ID!!!
I’m stoked. Went out with Cassie and some of her friends. I’m TWENTYNINE and I got asked for ID. Can you believe it?
Uploaded a few piccies……….check out the damage….First attack class
Well, as you may or may not have gathered from my previous blog entries, I did my attack training on the weekend. I haven’t really said anything about it, cuz well………that’s just me.
Since the weekend, I’ve had this horrible fear that cuz I’m an experienced instructor, I’m going to get thrown in the deep end [...]Summer is coming
35C today and I’m loving it! We’re getting early hot weather this time around, awesome. Except can’t believe how just because it’s suddenly hot we get 40 bushfires in one day, many of them purposely lit. Some people just make me angry icon_evil.gif One more week left of my crappy job………so hanging out to [...]
The Weekend
Amazing just amazing. I’ve learnt so much. All I want to say is Vanessa is awesome!
End of the week
Well the end of the week has arrived, and I’ve got a BIG weekend coming up.
I’ve given the final date of resignation to my boss……..last day of work is 19th October. Means I’ve gotta get my arse into gear and get my Cert 4 completed asap, or I’m not gonna have enough money!
Such a scary [...]Amazing compliment
wow, ok I’m in a bit of shock!
Ever since I’ve put on weight following my back injury 9 years ago, I’ve struggled with my weight ever since. When I first started teaching, I was one of your “flabbier” instructors, and although I’ve lost a lot of weight and toned up, I’m still a lot larger [...]Bring on summer!
Spring is in the air and summer is coming! WOOOHOOO!
Just loving this weather at the moment. The sun is shining, I’m working on laying out in the sun (topless…….stop checking out the google satellite maps guys ). Working on getting a tan, cuz I can’t afford the solarium at the moment.
The air con wasn’t [...]
