Kids

EXTREMELY SORRY that I have written in forever. There are no excuses so I won't even make one up. Honestly, I haven't really been in the blogging mood lately and this thing is hard to keep up with. Sorry to disappoint.

For those of you who don't know, my job is working with kids and teens at a summer camp program. I swear, some of the stuff these kids do amazes me. Clearly I do not remember being an annoying kid like some of the ones I have to deal with on a daily basis. The questions never stop, the whining is constant, the hitting, punching, kicking, fighting, yelling, crying, and pouting are ongoing from the time camp starts to the time camp ends. But my question is, why are these kids so BAD all the time? And until the day I die I will argue that girls are better behaved than boys. And boys smell so bad too! Some of them act like they have never been told what to do before. They just look at me like, are you talking to me? Uhhh yes sweetheart I am.

Needless to say working this job has made me think ALOT about kids, and if I even want them in the future. I honestly don't know how people have any more than 1 kid. I don't think I could handle it! But I do know one thing, if I do have kids, they are going to be the most poliet, most well mannered kids anyone has ever met. Because there is nothing worse than a person who has no manners or home training. And if you don't start it young then it will only get worse when they get older. Also, while I'm thinking about it, here are some other things that my kids will/won't do:

1. My kids will NOT eat fast food....especially not McDonald's.

2. My kids will NOT play on indoor playgrounds with balls...which will be avoided since they won't eat fast food. (and I can't believe I did that as a kid, how gross...people poop in there!)

3. My kids will most likely wear leashes until they are old enough to learn to stay beside me in public places. (yes, I will be THAT mom)

4. My kids will not have 400 different types of electronic games to occupy their time.

5. My kids will say yes mam and yes sir when they speak to adults.

6. My daughter will be allowed to compete in beauty pageants if she wants to. (because my mom never allowed me to and I'm still not over it.)

I could go on but I'll stop before people think I'm crazy. I've told my mom all of these things that I want my kids to do and she says that there is no way it will actually happen. Hopefully I will prove her wrong.

Back in Action

Alright, I know there is no excuse for not writing sooner but I actually had important things going on! For example vacation to OBX, and lets not forget our internet being broken for almost a week. But have no fear, I am back in action now!

This week has been super BUSY! I now have so much more respect for people who work "real jobs" from Monday thru Friday. This week I worked 3, ten hour days and I was absolutely wiped. But then I thought to myself, what if I had actually worked 5 days like that? I honestly do not know how some people do it! I've been in bed by 10pm every night this week. Lameeeeeee! I'm hoping my body will eventually adjust to the whole being awake more than being asleep concept. At school I could sleep for 11 or 12 hours easily, and now I'm praying I get 6 or 7. It's funny how things change.

On another note, I am slowly starting to get hooked on working out/ eating healthy. I guess this could be seen as both a good and bad thing. In one way I think its awesome that I have grown to love working out and eating healthy. I can see changes in my body and its really exciting/motivating. I also love the feeling of eating something that is good for me and knowing that I can resist the urge to give in to unhealthy food. With that said, there is also a guilt that comes along with the whole healthy workout freak thing. I've noticed that I sometimes feel guilty if I splurge on something unhealthy for a meal or if I skip a work out because I'm too tired. I almost feel like I have to work out in order to have a good day. So I guess you could say it is rewarding and frustrating at the same time. But I honestly have to say without a doubt, that I am thankful that breaking my leg has led me to such a healthy life path. I would not change any of this for a minute and I know that there are nothing put good things ahead of me. I am almost 100% sure that I want a career that has to do with fitness/ teaching people how to get in shape. Now I just have to whip my butt into shape before I start preaching to others.
