Thanks Jodie, Iain! So far so good, no complaints! Though i gotta say, it hasn't even been 24 hours yet.

I did get lost on the subway on my way to the orietnation this morning, but i managed to keep my composure and not look like a tourist, and just ducked into a corner so i could pull out my little map and get back on track.

Orientation was fun - met some other trainers I'll be working with, and one of them rode the train halfway back with me afterwards, so at least I wasn't completely lost TWICE.

now i'm home (hahaha, this is home now, how fucking weird/cool), eating and getting ready to go work out in a bit.

In other news, my cell phone is dying and i can't find the friggin charger.

dam! Now who am I gonna show me around Miami?????
Glad to hear things are going great for you!
I got lost on the LA freeways trying to get out..and almost got caught up in that morning rush hour trafic...that REALLY sucked! I can feel for you!
Bet you kept your composure a lot better than I did! I will just say that was happy I have tinted windows on my car.....I got going South on a highway I was supposed to be going North on..when I saw the error of my way, I tried to get off the highway, turn aruond and head North...nope. I evidentally turned of onto an East bound highway and could not get off for five friggin miles! I was LIVID! Finally, got it turned around, back on the right highway and going the right direction..finally got onto the corect outbound highway towards vegas and all was well...
I wanna get one of those gps thingies..
(Like the technical verbage)

Thank you ng!

Nah it would not have been rude hahaha! I mostly didn't really talk about it because the last thing I wanted was anyone discouraging me or pointing out possible negative things about what I was about to do, not that i think anyone specifically would have, but since i didn't know, I didn't want anyone bringing me down or talking me out of it... but yeah. surprise!

 

[GoalGetter]

good luck GG!!!!

Thanks billie!

[Pylon]

Nothing wrong with living in NY, just as long as you don't turn into a Yankees fan...

 

[GoalGetter]

Hello Ivy, awesome w/o and Congrats on Movin to New York!!! Hows it goin ?

Thanks michael! It's going great so far. I'm adjusting. It's a big change. But so far, I'm happy. I'm with patrick. Everything else is just a detail, ya know?

Hey hottie!
No car?!?!? I cannot imagine that!!!! W/out a car..it would be that same feling as going out knowing you do not have a cell phone on you....

I'm trying to find a nice USED German car to get for when I move there. Kinda funny..I was told by the head healtor at the office i am going to that my new Mazda won't 'fit in' with the snob crowd I will be dealing with..(read: no business) I am gonna have to get an OLD BMW or Mercedes....oy...
Are you getting settled in?

 

[naturaltan]

No cell phone What would you ever do B without one?

GG, don't most New Yorker's take the subway? I heard it's very expensive to drive in NY.

update

settling in...

ok so i've been so tired by the time i get home that i don't even feel like coming online to type anything out.

today, thankfully i didn't have to go to work until much later, so i've been cooking and organizing and trying to sort through all my crap to see where i can put some of it until we have time to make more room. As anticipated, I'm living out of my duffle bags. hahahahaha!

Today i'm working out wtih patrick. I'm not sure what he has in store for me, but it's my leg workout. We'll see. I'm excited. Then I start wroking at 6 pm, until 1030 PM.

Diet hasn't been 100% the last few days, though I haven't cheated in the way anyone would think I have. Just more calories than I should be eating, in the way of fruit. I've had a lot of extra fruit. A few apples here, a ton of strawberries there, but nothing that i can say I'd consider a CHEAT meal. And i haven't been drinking enough water or eating enough fats (i keep forgetting to take my fish oils with some meals). I am looking forward to having a set schedule soon, so that i can fall back into a routine the way i had when i was in miami. For now, I'm stressed and tired...

 

[King Silverback]

Looks like your adjusting just fine there Ivy!!! I'm sure Patrick will guide you down the right path!!! Thats so cool, congrats again you guys!!!
