OMG DIRK......DID YOU HAVE A STROKE? SHOULD I CALL THE WAAMBULANCE??
This was called a flagrant foul, and Dwight has to miss the first game of the season because of it...
AND THEY ASK ME WHY I HATE THE DALLAS MAVERICKS...
ANYWAYS... what's happened since last time?
1. WCF...The Rockets made it further than the haters expected. And we still got 2 superstars moving forward....so shut it
2. Graduation: bittersweet. 4 years finally over.
Now I get to field questions about my job/future plans (ugh)
When uncles n aunties start talkin to me I run away
My only regret is not being able to pull this off
3. Work/ Studying for boards. I feel like I know absolutely nothing.
Just kill me...
ONCE AGAIN, START HERE IF YOU'RE A SELFISH SOB WHO ONLY CARES ABOUT YOURSELF AND NOT MY LIFE...
ON TO THE MEAT:
I. Shred Season Checking in
So, there's a few individuals who I have been trying to help lose some weight (I'm here for the people... and am willing to help if you want to reach out) There's been some kickbacks that I just want to reiterate for those of you still on the fence about making this change.
1. "I want people to accept me for who I am, I shouldn't have to lose weight"
"I don't need no man, I'm a(n) independent woman"
a. This is you making an excuse to not get fit. You obviously have thought about getting fit, and it is something that you would like to do, but now you are using this argument to allow yourself to not have to work hard.
Work hard, play hard
b. I have had a few instances where I have had to overcome large odds (escaping death even...more on that later perhaps) but success in losing weight (or any difficult goal) is something that can NEVER be taken away from you and you should do it for YOURSELF, not for others to accept you.
c. Those around you WILL question and discourage you, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be focused. Even the greats like Gandhi were questioned, but in the end only you determine what you want to do. I understand this is hard (I live in a community where my every move is being watched) just block it out and don't worry about others' opinions. You ain't got to to answer to nobody, if you fall just get back on the horse.
2. I'm exercising, but I'm not losing pounds on the scale
a. What did I tell you about the scale? That is not the end all be all...
MUSCLE WEIGHS MORE THAN FAT
b. YOUR DIET IS 80% OF THE BATTLE...STOP EATING BURGERS, CHEESE, PIZZA, COOKIES...
c. PORTION CONTROL, PORTION CONTROL, PORTION CONTROL...
I know my bowl method seems stupid...but it works.
3. What's the point of me losing weight? I'm just going to gain it back anyways
a. You have to want this for the long term. No it is NOT easy, but if I can do it, anybody can. Start slow, shit start SOMEWHERE and figure out the long term later.
(That could be your name on his chest)
4. I feel like I didn't make enough of an emphasis on this, but I did pray and spiritually focus myself on trying to lose weight. This was probably one of the hardest things that I have had to do and I needed all hands on deck.
a. Compare your hardships with the less fortunate, is cutting out some fatty foods and exercising harder than those struggling to live, being persecuted for their beliefs, and fighting for food?
b. A large undertaking like this can be overwhelming, why not get some help from up above? "God make me sexy" is silly, pray for a new mindset, the strength to overcome obstacles, and for a new lifestyle.
c. for those of you that don't believe in a greater being just focus yourself on being mentally strong in overcoming the negativity in life (fat).
II. Summer faux-pas
1. OMG GIRLS...I KNOW IT'S SUMMER BUT IT'S NOT THAT HOT...
2. Crop Top....I'll crop your face bruh
It's the style...I get it....I just brought this up so I could post this again
the hottest crop top
3. SUN SCREEN: Speaking of crop tops...it'll give you weird tan-lines in the summer heat
I'm all about that facebook tan doe.
III. Dollar Shave Club Review
So I got a free trial of the Dollar Shave club. I went with the 4 blade.
Their site claims "You will love this razor - and your girlfriend can use it too"
So of course I went with that option (the other option is the 2 blade, which I already use, and is mostly beneficial for people like me that go into detail with their beards...anyways..
1. What came in the box
1 handle 4 blades 1 shave butter
2. I still trimmed with my trimmer before I shaved, but not too low so as to see how the thing actually worked
3. So, I wasn't being too careful (as I feel most shavers just go for a relaxed shave and don't overthink) and It did cut me. Not too bad though
4. After Shaving bottom with Dollar shave club
5. This was after I used my two blade razor on the top, so take it for what it's worth
Conclusion: Pretty smooth blade even if you don't trim your beard down all the way. So if you're relatively careful you can give yourself a clean shave with these blades and be good to go. Too wide for my detailing honestly, and at $6/month it's not a cheaper alternative. The two-blade system is $36 for 60 blades, while I pay $20 for 52 blades.
The shave butter is worth getting though. It goes on clear, and allows you to make good cuts. It is smooth on your skin, and melts off so your pores do not get clogged.
IV. Pray for me....if you care
Deuce.
