So the title of this entry basically sums up how I am feeling right now. As if my intense "professional semester" at New Paltz wasn't enough work, I joined a club (The Future Teachers of America) and also started a club (Brazilian Jiu Jitsu). So now am I not only doing school observations, taking all these classes, doing heavy lifting, climbing, but now I am also trying to get into jiu jitsu. It's really not to fair to say that I've been climbing though because I may climb for a total of half an hour every week haha but I want to start climbing more. Now that jiu jitsu is in the picture, I'm trying to set the goal of getting a blue belt by the time that I graduate. Maybe that is an unrealistic goal for now, considering I really can't even hold my own against any one! But I need to set goals like that to keep me motivated. There is another girl in the class who is about my size and she's progressing faster than me already and it frustrates me. I guess I'm just not a visual learner, I just don't get it when I see something demonstrated. It is just so difficult for me. And it's embarrassing because people seem to get irritated when trying to teach me something physical. And then there's the classic Steve saying that, "I don't try." Which has to be the most annoying thing ever, he says that about everything. I don't know anyone that tries harder at me. I have so much on my plate and I do it all and with a smile! I'll show him!
So I really need to start lifting more frequently and doing jiu jitsu more often. It is hard to keep up with the jiu jitsu because you have to do it with someone else! At least the lifting I can go off and do on my own. Tomorrow after volunteering at Lenape Elementary School, I am going to the gym and gonna bust my butt! No girl will be stronger than me, at least not at my college. Because I WILL SQUASH HER! AHHHhh!
