Moments of Musing

This Weekend I:

Filed Under: linkup, weekend //

***If you are a fan of Army Wives but didn’t get a chance to catch the season premiere, you might not want to scroll down because I speak (very briefly) about the episode & will give away something.
  • Went to a casino near my house for the first time. I don’t gamble (I only played my free $20) so I hung out at the bar/lounge with my cousin and uncle for most of the night. My mom and aunt joined us for some time, too.
  • Tried yoga for the first time since high school … and still didn’t like it. So I tried Daily Burn‘s MOVE workout, which is similar to Zumba, and LOVED it. That will be my workout for now 🙂 
I’m still not a Yoga fan.
  • Ordered a new bathing suit!
For Hawaiiiiii
  • Cried like a baby from start to finish of the Army Wives season premiere … Claudia Joy’s death was sad 🙁
 My favorite wife is no longer on the show :,
  • & I am ecstatic that our countdown is down to SINGLE DIGITS 😀
 
YAY!

Honor Courage Commitment

 On Wednesday, I was listening to Pandora Radio, “Today’s Country” radio station of course,  when I saw an ad of special interest pop up. It was an offer for free 30-day trial of different Daily Burn online workouts. Lo and behold, yoga is one of the available workouts. I got very excited because, as you know, my neck issues are preventing me from doing intense workouts. I’m really hoping this provides a good workout! I also plan on doing Insanity’s Cardio Recovery just to keep my body moving. . . not that running around in NYC everyday doesn’t do that!
 
Hope you all have a great weekend! I’ll leave you with my favorite old school jam in honor of #backthatazzup

I wore yoga pants

I’m the Kinda Girl Who…

Filed Under: linkup //

 
 

 Loves love
 
Enjoys traveling
 
Likes making others feel better
 
Loves a good laugh
 
Is a bit ditzy … people often joke that they don’t get how I’m smart but lack some (not all!) common sense

Is loving that the countdown is down to 14 days!!!

Thinks about what others think or how they feel about something she’s doing/ have done
Whose favorite color is PINK

Loves to go dancing! I luckily have a partner who enjoys doing the same with me 🙂

Falls asleep to true crime t.v. shows  … and then (sometimes) has nightmares about them

Is loving that she graduates law school in 2 months!!!

Cries … alot

(but) Is almost always smiling
Almost always has her iPhone in tow … trying to kick that habit and leave it behind sometimes, especially on dates (T & I have done this before and it works wonders)

Feels blessed everyday… I am grateful to have God on my side.

Despite being a strong believer, struggles with the science vs. religion debate

Is loving that the weekend is 2 days away

Has very fond Penn State memories, especially those of time spent with sorority sisters <3

Wants to make a difference in the world

Wants to be able to provide her kids with everything she’s been fortunate enough to have been given and more

Sets high goals and standards … “dream big, do big”

Believes in retail therapy, so long as it doesn’t result in debt lol
Eats chocolate almost everyday … woops!
Just wants to be healthy and happy 🙂

This Weekend I…

  • Had another interview. This is my perspective during my job search:
  •   Shopped with my mom. It was nice to get some mother-daughter time in. Again, here is my favorite purchase:

 
 

  • Indulged as I usually do on my weekends. Sunday night I had a comped dinner with my law school team at a three-star restaurant. I had the following courses (note: I didn’t take these photos since it would have been unprofessional due to who the non-student dinner guests were… oh etiquette):

 
Delicious Mushroom Risotto
 
 
Delicious Pork Chop served with savoy cabbage, apple, niman ranch bacon 
and sweet potatoe puree in a whole grain mustard sauce
 
And an even more delicious slice of chocolate cake that melted in my mouth, 
served with a side of almond ice cream
 

  •  Decided I will do Cardio Recovery a few times a week since it’s more like yoga AND do this Eat Your Heart Out Diet the 7 days leading up to my visit to Timmy in Hawaii.

  How were your weekends??
