Major Cleaning
Listening to:
The Girl from Ipanema-Astrud Gilberto
Good Luck-Basement Jaxx
So today I spent about four hours cleaning.
I did 120 crunches yesterday and a 120 crunches today.
Starting to get up and actually do stuff. It feels good.
Not that I'm anywhere near a clean room. Or anywhere near a six pack.
Typically, working doesn't feel good. But perhaps
because I've been just sitting for hours and hours this summer, moving about feels good.
Random trivia here: Did you know that working to a six pack is 95% cardio and 5% ab exercise?
That's because you have to lose the fat first to build muscle. I thought that was pretty interesting.
My tummy hurts a LOT.
Okay, so I also rummaged through all the crap I have in my room. Man! I have so much unnecessary junk it's overwhelming! Like, I have probably more broken pencils and pens than I have working pencils and pens. I have papers from like two years ago. I have binders of seemingly important stuff, but not really. You know. I am so ashamed to have been fostering this pile of JUNK with me. So I'm recycling all these papers that have no use to me. I'm keeping the ones that have some sort of value. But the thing is, it's really hard for me to just let things go. You know what I'm thinking when I'm deciding whether to throw something away?
Will my daughter or granddaughter want to see this?
I'm only in high school---and I don't even know why it's a daughter I'm imagining. I mean, my future child could be a son. Anyways, I'm picturing this daughter of mine just extremely curious about the life her mother had. She'd be asking: what was my mom's handwriting like? Was she a good student? So even though it may be the most useless piece of crap EVER, I will seriously debate this in my head.
Yeah, I think she'll want to see this.
And then, before I know it....I'm keeping everything! I just want to know: Am I weird for thinking this? I'm a high school student worrying about whether my future daughter will want to see my work, and it is causing me to harbor the most disorganized room in the world. I bet, in the end, my daughter won't give a darn about my adolescence.

Post-Rain Ranting
It's been raining all this week. I've been cooped up inside just trying to figure out what to do-- what to do with myself and what to do with my life. My room is an utter mess. As much as I try to clean it, nothing changes. Someone always comes in to tell me to clean it, but that makes me really want to do the opposite. Do you get what I mean? I love having a clean room--it's just I don't have the initiative to make one. And to have someone tell you to clean it makes me resist even starting. It makes me feel super pathetic for even harboring this huge mess in the first place. Whenever someone tells me to clean my room, it's just a blow to my esteem and it's infuriating. Seriously: what goes through my head is "I was gonna clean...until you told me to".
I want to workout real bad. I want to start running and get my lazy ass off this chair. But as much as I want to, I'm not moving. I have gained way to much weight for one summer. I want to gain muscle. Yeah, people are always saying that muscle is so manly. Yet, I don't think it's manly at all. Check out Madonna's beautiful biceps. I don't find muscles on a lady manly. Rather, it's very admirable. It shows people that you are not lazy. It shows people that you are active with your life. It shows people that you have incredible strength and you are not to be messed with. Yeah, I'd like to get Madonna arm muscles. Of all things right now, I miss my PE class. I was probably never fitter in my entire life than in my PE class. And even though people generally despised our PE teacher, I felt he taught us so much. He taught us to stay fit. But laziness overrules right now.
