Holey Nose.

I, Ladies & Gentlemen, got another hole in my body yesterday. This one, being the first one on my face. I woke up Sunday morning, groggily embracing Daylight Savings times, and decided I needed a new piercing. Normally, they are stress induced, or at a time when I need a release. This one, I decided, was just going to be a gift to myself. I was sure I wanted my nose pierced and then I thought I possibly wanted to re-do my belly button. So of course, I did what I do best, I texted everyone. After about five minutes and 30 text messages later, the polls closed and I was getting my nose pierced. I had been doing some research on this studio called “Koi” and I got dressed and headed out.

My iPhone got me there with no problems, except for when I missed my exit, and I really liked the feel of the studio. I talked a lot with the receptionist, whose piercings gave me ideas for some of my own, and then it was off with Eduardo, or Ed for short, for a new hole. He, like the studio, was Hawaiian. He was very professional, fun to be around, and amused by how I landed in Utah. All in all, it was great & painless. And to be honest, my nose is flippin cute. I’ve always been somewhat disappointed with my nose as it’s the only physical characteristic I inherited from my mom, but now I’m content. I left feeling rejuvenated, relaxed, and happy with the world; as always after a new piercing. I also felt a strong urge to blow my nose as my new earring felt like an enormous booger. Ed assured me the booger syndrome would pass =].

On the way home, I called a few friends, and got completely lost in the process of me chit chatting away. That, was lame. I went home, changed clothes and left to buy workout clothes.

Why you ask?

This girl? The girl who hates working out? The girl who’s physical activity includes playing guitar hero and swimming endless laps? The asthmatic?

Joined a flippin gym.

Gold Gym to be precise.

GO ME!

Tonight? Yoga. Tomorrow? Pilates. The Next Day? Kick Boxing.

And repeat.

I’m aiming to become more flexible and lose a few pounds. I’m oddly flexible as it is, but it wouldn’t hurt to be more =]. I randomly walked in to the Gym located conveniently next to my second home., High Point Coffee, and inquired about classes. The girl who I talked to happened to be from Eugene OR and we chatted about how much we missed Oregon. And by chatted I mean sat at her desk for a good hour discussing the need for green trees, friendly drivers, places that don’t close on Sundays and stay open past 3AM, parties in Eugene, and of course…the constant supply of something to do. She invited me to go clubbing with her and her friends and said she would work on hunting me down a faker. Oh the days of being able to skate into clubs in Portland…yah…they’re on hold. Anyways, I politely said Maybe, and she waive my $150.00 starter fee and gave me a discount on my monthly membership. So in the end, I pay $30.00/month to attend any and all classes, work out 24.7, swim whenever, and go to any Golds. I am pumped.

Tonight after work I’m heading to get my nails fixed, pick up a Yoga mat, workout, go for coffee, and finish up some plans for Oregon. Got some emails back from friends at Concept and I get in free all weekend and we get to hop any lines. The suite is booked, rides are arranged, outfits are bought…it’s gunna be bitchin.

I been thinking a lot about my tattoos lately, and what scripture I want to put down my side, and of course, I’m still incredibly indecisive. I’m trying to look a little everyday and I’ll post what I find on here.

Deu 8:3	He humbled you. . . to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD
1Sa 12:24	But be sure to fear the LORD and serve Him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things He has done for you
Psa 3:3	You are a shield around me, O LORD; You bestow glory on me and lift up my head
Psa 27:1	The LORD is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
Psa 34:4	I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.
Psa 51:10	Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Psa 55:22	Cast your cares on the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall.
Psa 118:17	I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done
Psa 119:105	Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path
Pro 3:5-6	Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
Pro 12:28	In the way of righteousness there is life; along that path is immortality.

More another day.
