I Need Some Stuff

I'm discovering that I'm missing items in order for me to be successful in this journey.

First off, walking in the snow sucks.

We had a 2 hour delay because of the snow last week. The first snow cancellation since 2007!

I've resorted to walking around my apartment when it's too cold or even just standing instead of sitting for a while helps. I need to invest in a god pair of sneakers to make the walking easier on my feet. Once it gets nicer out I'll be unstoppable.

I also discovered that I don't own a scale. Surprisingly, there isn't an app for that. It's hard to measure my progress thus far. Even though I feel better, I want to have justification that I'm doing things right. Even though I'm excited that I am starting to get into a routine and feeling good, I want to loose weight.  

I'm becoming more motivated to be active. My a cappella group, NOTA, is learning choreography for our competition set, and it feels good to be able to move and sing at the same time without being winded by the end. I'm so excited for us to compete in the International Competition of Collegiate A Cappella quarter-finals next month. Our goal is to move on to the semi-finals in March.

I've also been watching videos of the Blue Band like this:



Watching myself in Parade Order and on the field is giving me incentive to get in shape. Seeing how much fun I'm having and thinking about how I want to make my last season the best one, is more than enough motivation for me. 

I do feel like I'm starting to get better, in every sense. I'm more active and it feels great. I need to keep going. 

I know that was a little short, I'll have more to say next week
