happy valentines day!

baby bee valentine

I've been doing awesome with running lately! The gym on campus is really nice but sometimes it gets quite crowded. Usually Sundays are the best time for me to go because there isn't really anyone there so i feel really comfortable in trying new equipment. I hate when i can't figure a machine out and people are staring so i get off of it asap so i don't look like a fool! Sundays i take my time and figure equipment out and have so much more fun when i can relax while working out.
On my last birthday my Dad got me these shoes:

at first i was nervous about them because they were tight at first but they are great now. I haven't really weighed myself in quite a while but i can just tell the difference physically from what total flab i had has turned to muscle.

 Anyway in a few weeks i get to go home to see my mama and my dog!

i really want to be in love

A few things I would like to address:

There was a post on tumblr (you can probably find the link on my tumblr blog) addressing some "sexist" comment that I apparently made. It was about how a girl/woman can be as slutty as she wants, but that doesn't give a man permission to touch her/rape her. This is so very much true, but I made the comment that I don't think that women should just be sleeping around. While, in fact, i don't really care what every single woman decides to do with her body because that is her business, I just think it's smarter to be protective of yourself because of all of the diseases out there, people who just want to hurt you, and unwanted pregnancy. If you're being safe, great! But you should also protect your emotions too, especially if you're like 16 years old and sleeping with people because you'll most likely regret that later on.

Someone made the comment that I'm narrow-minded and I just think that because I'm religious. Apparently I have to be religious to think that sex should be safe and women should really know their partner. I personally think it's a bit narrow minded of the anonymous person who made that comment about religion solely being like that. Someone also made the comment that I'm an "awful person and killed anything that a good person should be." THAT comment was freaking ridiculous. The fact that I have to stand up for myself to people I don't know via internet is stupid. I guess only "feminists" have opinions.

I don't really think that thinking women should be protective of themselves is sexist. The only reason I used the word "woman" is because that's what the initial post was about. It was talking about WOMEN not being raped because they were "slutty."

Yes, I do believe in God but that had nothing to do with my opinions on the matter.

AHAHAHHAHA.

So, my best friend Kari Lupton (http://flysparrowfly.wordpress.com/) is coming to see me September 25th. I've never been this excited about seeing someone! We've never seen each others faces or been able to hug each other for the five years that we've been the bestest of friends. People get (obviously) a bit creeped out when they find out that we've never actually even met, but I don't give a shit! She's been there for me this entire five years whether it's via text, phone, e-mail, facebook, or webcam and I know that I can always depend on her no matter what.

Five years and we haven't fought once or argued about one thing. I know that I will have the time of my life when she's here! I can't freaking wait. It's so weird to know that we haven't met in five years, and she'll be here in just two weeks exactly from today. THIS IS SO EXCITING!!
