Hard to imagine but I have only one week left in China. Not only am I going home for a month during the holidays (hooray!), but I am also anticipating another change that will completely shake up my life once again. I cannot tell you what is happening at this time but wait for a … More Day 307: Front Squats
Oh boy I am sleepy. Yesterday was jam packed with Thanksgiving festivities and today with some serious shopping (we scored some great deals on “real” purses and watches!). I am ready to face plant into my pillow so there will be few words today. Friday, November 2nd Our friend Nestor needed to buy some shoes … More Day 306: When in China
Thursday, November 1st Just a typical scene on the Shanghai metro. You know you’re in China when… Cellphones, headphones, umbrellas, and leopard prints dominate the metro. I do love leopard print. Maybe it’s time to bust out my leopard print pants?? I have to be honest here. I have yet to wear them. I know I … More Day 305: Shanghai Style
Happy Thanksgiving again! I am currently sitting in my favorite Starbucks, listening to Christmas music. Actually they have been playing Christmas music since Halloween here in China but I don’t mind. It makes me excited to spend the holidays with my family! I just spoke to my sisters who are home for Thanksgiving and I … More Day 304: Sweater Weather

Did you hear? They are not kicking me out of China. At least not yet! After a couple phone calls the police were informed that yes I left the country when I went to Japan and that I do not have to leave till December. Just in time for the holidays! All this worrying really … More Day 302: Hello Kitty
Apparently China wants to deport me tomorrow. They do not understand that I actually left the country when I went to Japan on the cruise (are they so mad at Japan that they don’t consider it a country??) The police wrote me a little note that said “You need to entry and exit visa. Your … More Day 301: It’s all in the booty
Wow 300 days of the 365 Project down. Only 66 more days to go! This year is flying by. And what happened to the weekend??? It is so cold here that I just want to stay inside, find some sort of fire (maybe the mask-less metal welders next door), and drink warm beverages while watching all … More Day 300: A Legit Crossfitter
Friday, October 26th You know the best part about starting a new exercise regime? For me is it the excitement of starting one! I love jumping into a new program determined to see results and excited to get stronger. Don’t forget excited to eat more! The worst part though? Soreness and exhaustion. When I started … More Day 299: Rest, Rebuild, Adapt
Thursday, October 25th At Crossfit we started working on our rope climbing technique. This isn’t your playground rope climb with helpful little knots along the way. Nope, this is just a singular rope hanging from the ceiling. The technique is to wrap the rope under and over one foot then stepping on top of the … More Day 298: I Am Strong and Able
