Been in a funk lately so I'm changing things up!
Started an Alkaline Diet a week ago and feel amazing!!! So far so good.
Put my Crossfit membership on hold for a month and joined a Yoga studio that offers Hot Ashtanga Yoga.
Doing all this by the book for one month as an experiment to see how I'm going to feel in 4 weeks from now.

As of tomorrow I go back to my house after being at a friend's basically idyllic palatial home for the last 3 weeks. I am a little scared that some of the changes that I was able to implement here will fade. it's just been such a good 3 weeks and I really don't want to go back to how I was living before I came here. So much needs to change, my house needs a new energy in it, because I realise the energy has been one of stress and dischord so I need to fix that too.
I just need to keep remembering all the victories that I had over this time and also that I really do create my own life circumstance no matter what.

I have been obsessed with Lady Gaga from day 1 and I truly believe she is a misunderstood genius. My sister bought me a book she happened to be reading for my birthday. I started reading it this week and it is THE WORST BOOK i've ever read. Almost every sentence begins with "she" or "he" or "And" so the sentence structures are poor and repetitive. Character inconsistencies up the wazoo. Its a crime novel and the lead detective makes a big fuss over not believing what her supervisors have told her about the main suspect, to the point of straining her professional relationship with them, then turns around and treats the suspect and her friends/family like everything her superviors said was true and affirms their statements to be true without question.
There's a lot of logical inconsistencies too. The main suspect goes into hiding after her lawyer tells her she is likely to be charged with the murder. Then the detectives go around and tell all her family & friends they'll be thrown in jail if its found that they helped her go into hiding... but the thing is that she goes into hiding before they even charged her, so there's no warrant yet by the time she's gone.
example sentence (from the detective speaking): "A man has been murdered and your [friend] Frieda Klein has gone off on some self-indulgent meltdown. She's wrecking a murder inquiry, breaking the law, and for what?"
Um? How is going into hiding to avoid a false murder charge a "self indulgent meltdown" ....and for what? ummm is it not obvious? because she doesn't want to go to jail?
stupid stupid stupid.
anyway the whole point is that its making me wonder if Lady G isn't so smart after all. It does not compute in my brain how she could enjoy this book. Maybe it was just a promotional thing. It seems doubtful though because she didn't name the book or link to it at all, just had a worn-looking copy in a casual instagram photo. I guess if my sister fell for it & bought the book though, it was just un-subtle enough.
The book is Friday on my Mind by Nicci French in case anyone is wondering.

Alkaline diet/water/whatever is pretty much a scam. Well I saw a lot of fruits & veggies are part of the diet and that's definitely good for you but the whole 'alkaline' part is the scam since our bodies already control our pH levels automatically (and it's a very tiny range!). But if you feel amazing then that's what matters!
--
I on the other hand do not feel amazing at all lol. I've been eating so bad it's finally caught up to me I think. I feel like I need to detox. Easier said than done! I move in 2 weeks and I'll just make sure to stock my new kitchen up with all healthy things. This is so bad but I can't even tell you the last veggie or fruit I ate lol. I'm sure I ate some recently but the fact that I can't say I ate any today or yesterday is bad. I think for a week straight I need to just strictly eat fruits & veggies & constantly drink water & green tea. My body feels like shit right now. Some cardio & a sauna sounds really good too. I definitely will make more of an effort to be healthy.

Try smudging your place with sage. Sage removes stale and bad energy. When smudging don't forget to open closets and get all the corners where bad and stale energy tends to linger :)
You'll be just fine in your home :)
Or why don't you paint a wall?? Give ur place a new fresh feel.
IM me and I'll tell what color you should surround yourself in by going off your Birthday.

Is it really a scam? I get really painful canker sores sometimes that often take weeks to go away. I heard that alkaline water was effective and even though I thought it was probably stupid I saw a bottle at the grocery store on day and thought I would give it a try. I had two canker sores that had just appeared a few days ago. Within 3 days of drinking that water they were completely gone, making it the fastest they've ever healed. coincidence? maybe.

I don't really know I just know that our kidneys are constantly working to keep our pH levels within a very tiny range. So when companies claim people need to drink 'alkaline water' to 'help balance your pH' they are just bullshitting you to make money. But then again I thought canker sores came from too much acidic stuff & maybe alkaline water would counteract it in just your mouth? Not sure. Or maybe it's just the water itself counteracts it because water is already neutral. I just took a lot of science classes in college & the whole alkaline craze bothers me lol.

I finally bought an outfit I've been wanting for a long time. I'm so frugal - it's a little ridiculous sometimes. I mean the outfit only cost around $50 including shipping...I work in a club where I sell $40 dances, so seriously, why is it so hard for me to pony up that money? I guess it kind of makes sense though, since buying outfits online can be a bit of a gamble. It could arrive and fit poorly, or be an unflattering color, etc.

No it's not a scam there's a lot of studies done on how beneficial Alkalizing the body is through eating foods that are alkaline rather than acidic and also how important it is to drink the right type of water. Check out Ross Bridgeford, he
has tons of info on it!

There are many negative things about dancing, but I believe it has inspired some awesome changes in me. I feel more confident and I attract more quality men. Men who are established, stable, respectful, and love to cater to their woman. I've realized my worth a lot more and I'm a much better communicator. I also have very low tolerance for a lot of things these days. And of course, while I am so thankful for the opportunities that's dancing has provided, it has inspired me to do more with my life so I don't have to depend on this and so that I can continue to live a life as comfortably as I do on a dancing income without a dancing income.

I never slept with a man who is uncut and would love to meet one, and see. I heard the thrusting is fucking awesome! Lol. I can imagine. When I was a young teenager during a makeout session I had with this guy from school, I hand jerked him and it felt awesome. Like one of those anti-stress toys. Haha. I was a virgin at that time, so that's as far as it went.
I can only imagine having an anti-stressor inside. :P

Well I worked myself up into a frenzy of research and didn't buy the Thailand ticket yet.
I am feeling down about the whole thing ( traveling alone on this one ) but I feel like I still want to do it . :/
Now I'm working on telling myself that it's ok that the flight will suck ( it's long, how can it not ) and just not think about that part !
I've looked at city maps and train maps and didn't get too detailed with it but I feel ok .

^^So basically I house sat for the last 3 weeks so I had no choice but to put my computer in front of the bed, on a little shelf thing. For some reason I had the most productive 3 weeks ever and I feel like the energy just flowed.
Getting back home I put my pc to the side of my bed where its mostly always been and i just felt so blocked and even ugly. So this morning I pulled my desk forward, put it at the foot of my bed, creating lots of space at the sides, and all of a sudden I felt how I'd been feeling the last 3 weeks. Maybe its because my cam is higher up and captures me at a better angle, or its the fact that there is a lot of "space" for me to move in the room, either way, I know I feel so much more freed energy wise.
I know almost nothing about Feng Shui but this has made me think that perhaps I need to learn more to transform the rest of my house

Being back in retail, w/ a company that's quite anal abt us all checking $20s/$50s/$100s & checking IDs for credit/debit cards … makes me wonder why we don't hear more abt sm wanker coming in w/ conterfeit notes/stolen CCs.
I guess that for their own purposes, clubs have to be a bit more anal abt CC transactions. I bet they have plenty of battles w/ chargebacks as it is bc of buyers remorse or custie's SO finding out. But so much cash changes hands so quickly ITC, I would think it would be a perfect opportunity to rip dancers off w/ a fake bankroll. I mean, unless it's positively dead, who has time to check their payments, or even thinks abt it? Kind of a scary thought.

Another random thought while browsing thru HH:
I have sm times thought that there should be a mini chalkboard or dry-erase board w/ a marker provided in private dance areas. That way when you're doing 3-, 4-, 5-for-$whatever deals you + the customer can both count shit together, every1 agrees on song counts, no one feels ripped off & we all leave happy.
But that would probably be way too idealistic :(

This weekend, I'm flying out to go on a mini 'vacation' with my family, and I'm dreading it. We just don't do well together as a group. I'm going to have to fake my way through the entire thing.. It's like, no matter how much work you've done on yourself, it all unravels when it comes to family. But I'm going because I know it's important to keep up relationships with family members - you never know when you might need each other's help. :/

I have little to no use for the Twilight series, but there are sm aspects of it that I think would be positively fabulous to have myself IRL. I'm thinking mainly of how the vampires don't require sleep … how phenomenal would it be to not NEED sleep?? Not that I would want to give up sleep entirely, cuz it's SLEEP :D but to be able to go for however long w/o requiring it … & I mean genuinely not requiring it, not just consuming massive amts of uppers to suppress the need …
Ugh. Nowhere near enough hrs in the day, nor enough energy/drive to make the most of them :mad:

I just started seeing these two guys, and I think I'm going to stop seeing one of them already. After we went from friends to "dating", he started acting really weird. Talking in this cutsey voice thats almost baby talk, and doing this dorky things that he thinks are impressive in front of me but actually just make him look like a nerd. I HATE when guys do this because it makes me feel like I'm being forced to compliment them or comment somehow on whatever cheesy thing they're doing, and I HATE feeling forced into doing anything, so I will just purposely pretend like I'm not paying attention. but often, they'll keep doing it forever until I say something.
For example, I went to his house with the condition that I work on some homework while I'm there. As I'm working, he's in the background practicing his flamenco dance in this really.... flamboyant way. i'm just like, that might look good with a partner, but alone you look so nerdy right now. he's standing there getting all serious with his eyes closed doing these super cheesy hand motions. i was dying of embarrassment. i kept ignoring him long enough that i guess he gave up on me being impressed by his ~sweet flamenco skills~ and gave it up and just plopped down to help me with my homework. ugh.
Also, he keeps calling me "hot". I HATE being called hot, it sounds like something customers say all the time. I dont want someone I'm dating to call me hot. I want to be called pretty or beautiful. come on.
over it! I'm gonna text him and say I think we should go back to being friends.

I am very much into Feng Shui.
I mistakenly blocked one of my entrances at my new place with...stuff I was going to find a place for once everything got unpacked.
Almost instantly, the flow of money stopped.
When I realized what I had done, I quickly removed the things blocking the door, and abundance immediately came to me once again.
By putting things in front of the door, I was blocking the good that wanted to
come in.

I keep seeing this thing that's "Little known words for feelings that are hard to explain"... there needs to be a word for the last day of being sick.
Like, when you're not 'sick sick', but still not all the way right and really weak, but you're tired of laying around for days in the same sweatpants... So it's like "You know what, I'm getting up, showering and putting on clean clothes, and then I'm getting a latte, and I'm gonna resume my life cause I got shit to do."

Well, I took an online course many moons ago, but I'm sure everything you need is online.
Or at your library.
Do a search, and pick the explanations/descriptions you vibe with.
I find that a lot of it gets way too complicated, and unnecessary, ya know what I mean?
Using your intuition will help also. I.E., if something doesnt feel right, move it.
There's a good thread in the old LOA group.
