Whats Better Than Singing In The Rain?



Running in the rain:)
Let's face it,there's not much to look forward to in winter. But I have discovered one of the biggest stress relievers of all time.
I love to run, and during the winter days I end up being confined to the treadmill [ugh!]. One day i was so fed up I decided that i was going to run in the pouring down rain. It was so awesome! Yea i looked like a half drowned cat, but it was totally worth it. Its like your in a different world.
To this day every time I see a really good rain, i get my running gear. :)
Seriously guys, you need to try this before rainy season has officially ended:)
-good luck

Happiness is Attainable


Ever had to stop and think when the last time you were happy, just because? I'll be the first to admit that i can go for whole days with even feeling content. Work , people, health and whatever else distracts you can become a barrier between you and your happiness.


I dont know if you guys have read the article yet on yahoo but its a pretty good one:



"while about 50 percent of our happiness quotient is determined by what researchers call our natural “set point” for happiness, and 10 percent depends on the circumstances of our lives, a whopping 40 percent is entirely up to you—the way you react to events, cope with stress, choose to spend your time and more."


So dont worry, and be happy!

Men & Me [part 3]


So yesterday I went out for a night on the town with my roommate. We happened to run into a group of guys that we knew so we chilled with them. Now these weren't just any guys, these were The Islanders. Needless to say I was very happy, happy that I was finally having fun, happy to be surrounded by the funniest/sexiest/nicest guys around. We were sitting at a round table eating and talking and all of a sudden i feel a tap on my shoulder.

I look up, and its the last person I wanted/expected to see. My ex. Before you think I'm a horrible person for brushing him off let me explain.

In recent months my ex has made up his mind that there is no one in the world for him besides me. This was OK at first because i could just tell him HELL NO. But gradually his attempts became more psychotic, so much so that my friends keep pushing me to get a restraining order [yea its that bad] so I was perfectly comfortable with being rude to him [plus, who was i surrounded by? yea a bunch of muscles].

We went back to eating and talking and after a while i feel another tap on my shoulder. Yea, its him again. At this point I was so mad I was seeing red. What the hell is he trying to do? He'd always try and thwart my dating adventures before, but this was a whole new level. The only thing i wanted to do at that point was take him in the back of the building and make him permanently apart of the pavement, but this would require me to be alone with him.

Once again we all acted like this didn't happen, and there was only one guy in the whole group that even knew we had previously dated. We went back to talking and laughing and all of a sudden i hear the guys at the other end of the table noticing something. "what the hell is he doing?", does he know we can see him through the glass?", "I think he's 'window shopping'". me and my roommate decide to turn around and see what caught their attention.

I froze, my roommate gasped. It was yet again my ex, staring at me from the window. I dont think i was able to breathe for the next few seconds. not because i was mad, but because i was scared. He looked so different, and it gave me chills. It was clear that the guys had picked up on the object of his gaze, and they didn't even have to say anything but i knew id be fine. A couple minutes later me and my roommate booked it through the back exit and made our way back.

Needless to say my perfect night on the town was ruined, and i am now looking up restraining orders. So was I succesful with men this week? no, no i wasnt.

Instant Energy

Maybe we all know that a good diet and lifestyle are surefire ways to keep our energy levels in tip top shape. But what about the crash after the junk food binge brought on by your latest breakup? OK so your lack of energy might not be as dramatic as all that, but according to a poll taken by Stanford University Research 37% of people are so sleepy it gets in the way of daily activity.

So here are 3 ways to combat the lazies and get those feel good hormones pumping:

#1 MUSIC

I think this is one of the most obvious ways to get up to beat. Whether its Beethoven or Britney you'll wake up and be able to more readily focus on whatever your doing.

#2 LAUGH

Yea, i know it sometimes feels silly to stop whatever your doing and go to your favorites on youtube, but it actually does help give you a little boost of energy.



#3 AROMATHERAPY

Peppermint can actually be an excellent waker upper. "Researcher at West Virginia's Wheeling Jesuit University Found that sniffing peppermint immediately improves both athletes' running speed and office workers' typing speed. Its scent acts as a mood enhancer that boost you motivation and concentration."

I hope you guys found this interesting, and i highly recommend either one. We all could use a little extra umph.
