A new beginning?

Oh yes indeed, there is... In a month my life has changed a lot. And all in a good way!
I can't remember the last time I felt this good about my self. It's absolutely amazing. I feel like I can do anything! And I can!

This summer I met up with an old friend from about ten years back, Eleni. Don't know if I've written about it before!? Probably... But anyway, she told me about this life-altering thing she's done and I got sooo inspired. A few months later I did the same... I joined a health club that just opened in town, mainly to improve my physical health, lose some weight, get more fit and increase my endurance. And mind you me, I'm on a good way towards all of that, but the most amazing thing, which I hadn't at all expected, was all the inner change it brought with it. I had expected myself to feel a little better of course, due the positive physical change, but this is so much more.

I've increased both my self esteem and my self confidence. All these decisions I've put on hold because of fright and uncertainty suddenly wasn't that scary any more. I applied to start studying again, I've applied for tons of jobs in Malmö and I'm trying my very best to get an appartment down there as well. I've got all this enegry, I barely know what to do with it. I've alreday lost 22 lbs, which I'm sure is a contributing factor... But all this sudden dare. Where has it been hiding all this time? It's like an explosion, and a damn good one! So now I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that it'll all work out the way I want it to.
I've applied for three different courses at BTH for next semester. Distance tuitions so that I can work at the same time, would I get a job. Psychology and Sociology are the main ones... And unfortunately I have to choose one them... I also applied for a shorter one, just 7,5hp, in the essentials of sociology. But jeez it's hard... I have a month or two to decide though, thank God.

I've also started working out, at least five days a week. Feels soooo good. Mostly it's the gym, but I've also started taking a class in Kundalini Yoga. Never tried regual breathing yoga before, nor having an instructor, but I was delighted to learn they were both big hits. All this exercise has done me a lot of good, but I have however injured my left hip. NOT good. Went to the physiotherapist, but I couldn't get a straight answer... Suppleness was her good guess, and maybe she's right, but... Of course I am... Ah, just hoping it'll pass until I'm done with the worst bit and then I go see another one. I got one recommended by Hanna, Kerstin's daughter. Good thing is, my hip is feeling better... My old knee injury is however making an entrance... Crap... Maybe I'm just not meant to run. =( I've spoken to Jenni and Johan about coming with them for a boxing session. I'm real excited, I think that could be my thing! =) Well enough about work out.

Last week end I went to Kalmar with mum for a genuine shopping spree. And for once, actually it might be the very first time, I found everything I needed. I got a new winter coat, boots, a pair of jeans, a shirt, a dress, a pair of leggins, a cardigan, a purse... Might've forgotten a thing or two, but those were important ones. I had a closet raid a few weeks back, sorting out all the clothing that are now too big for me to wear... All except for the ones that I can fix, by sew them up. Three whole blue plastic bags from Ikea full... And Sunday a few more went... That left me, for instance, with only one pair of pants to wear. Those new jeans were highly wanted, in other words.

Later today I'm going in to town to return the dress I bought, hoping to find something else instead. I also have to buy a new bra. Can't believe that every inch of me is shrinking, except for my boobs... The one thing I really want to diminish. Nooo, not one single cup size, just the messures around instead.. Eeh, well... Nothing I can do about it at the moment anyway... Besides, except for the price, it's always nice to get some new lingerie.

Last Friday I played pool with Daniel from work. Had a great time, I must say. I miss having colleagues to hang out with. When I worked with Home care there were always tons of people your own age... But here, except for Jonathan, I'm the youngest... It's me, and then Karin who's a year older than me I think... And then the youngest is Daniel I think... And Petter is about the same age as as well. Would be fun getting all together and do something. Have a beer, go bowling or whatever.
Anyway, tonight I'm seeing Daniel again! I'm accompanying him and his three little girls to the movies. I think there's a Disney production on the schedule =)

Nah, I think it's time for me to have some soup! Asparagus or maybe chocolate with a tad of mint =)

See ya soon hopefully!
