Do something good for yourself

Today was a very productive day. The gym makes me feel better about myself. It is so hard tho. Despite knowing you are doing something good for yourself that will improve your overall quality of life, sometimes the pain it takes to get there is a lot to bear. Maybe that's dramatic. Probably is, working out isn't that bad.

It just sucks.

However, I can't give up. Day two of my new year experiment and I am doing great so far. Tomorrow the plan is to do a full body strength work put in the dorm before class, I think it will work out well. Ellen is on at ten, she'll give me the motivation I need.

On another note, my best friend is going through a really rough time at her school right now. She isn't happy there and I feel awful. I know how she feels, I haven't had the easiest time ever adjusting here. And then it seems like everyone else in the world is loving their college experience, everyone else has the movie picture perfect lives. Especially according to their facebooks, which probably was the worst invention ever when it comes to the whole "grass is greener on the other side" fallacy. But I don't know how to help her see that everyone has a rough time and everyone needs time to adjust. Not everything is going to work out perfectly the way you want them, but you can always make the best of what you have. On the other hand, if you really don't like something, it is up to you to change it. So it's her decision. And I'll support her whatever she ends up doing, I just wish I could be there to help her out. In the end though, she has got to do what is good for herself.
