Incoherent Thoughts On A Friday

Happy Friday! FINALLY!

I have one test in physics to get through and one quiz in math analysis. I got this. I'll probably just be staring at the clock the whole time though so I can bust out of school and race my little tush home! Don't get me wrong, I don't mind school but this week has been so exhausting. And it's only going to get worse. Sigh. I guess I better suck it up now!

I have work orientation tomorrow for 2.5 hours. I'm really excited to have this job and incredibly thankful. For anyone who is curious, I am working at Penn Station which is a sandwich shop notable in the east coast. Anyone from there a Penn Station fan?

The great thing is, this place is literally right next door to my gym. So I can either get in my workout before or after my shift which is so convenient for me! Love that.

Also, I get to meet with my trainer hopefully tomorrow to go over personal training certification requirements. I am really excited to do this because in my future, I want to be a certified personal trainer and I feel like I know a lot already, but want to expand my knowledge even further. It's really nice of Mary (my trainer) to allow me to study with her so I can get a 'head start' basically on learning what I will need to know.


I technically know all the basics, but now I get to refine my knowledge down to the nitty gritty details. I plan on learning more about the musculature of the body and cool things like that. This stuff intrigues me! It definitely makes me think of what I want to do with my life. I've really wanted to be a psychologist for as long as I can remember, but to be 100% honest I'm considering all different kinds of careers all across the spectrum.

Psychology is a huge interest for me, but I'm trying to deduce how I will juggle figure competitions, persona training AND psychology all at the same time. You think I can do it? ;) I just don't want to make any concrete decisions on what I want to do with my life at the moment. Everything is open to change and if I make up my mind now, I could be missing out on so many other options that may suit be better, so we'll see.

Well... this post has basically been an incoherent ramble, so I guess I will continue on with that trend...

Is anyone else totally pumped for the Olympia?! I've been following along with all of Erin Stern's Road to the Olympia videos and blog posts on Muscle & Fitness Hers. Just to witness the dedication and amount of work that competitors put into preparation astounds me. It's incredible! I'm really excited to see who takes first and I am willing to bet it's going to come down between Erin Stern and Nicole Wilkins... yet again. ;)

 

Alright, well I'm done for this Friday. I hope you were able to piece this post together. Have a wonderful day everybody. :)

Questions: Have you ever tried a Penn Station sub? What did you want to do when you were in high school? Who are you rooting for in the Olympia?

  1. OMG THAT WOULD BE SO COOL IF YOU GOT CERTIFIED!!!!!!! You'd make such an amazing trainer-- you have the passion, the smarts, and the kindness to help others :)
    And umm holy crap YES I'm stoked for the Olympia-- I wish I could go so bad. One day you and I should take a vacay out there to cheer on our idols and load up on freebies :D

    1. Haha I can't wait to be of age. I don't even know how old you have to be... LOL! But thank you Alex, that means a lot!

  3. Britt!! It's great to see someone like you so focused with such an eagerness to learn. I've said it before to you and I'll say it again...you are SO far ahead of the game. I hope and pray my daughter has such a clear head as you when she's your age. I have no doubt that you will be very successful in everything you do! I'm on the East Coast and I've never heard of that sandwich shop! p.s. I'm 32 and still don't know what I want to be when I grow up! Love ya, have a great holiday and lots of luck in your new job!

  7. Congrats on the new job! So.. Are you making sandwiches? ;)
    Haha, I wish I could just fly over there so I can order a sandwich from you or something. :P

    I can totally relate to what you said about not wanting to decide what you're going to do with your life right now. I have absolutely NO CLUE what I want to be and what I want to major in at college, but I know I want to be doing something that makes me feel fulfilled. :) I totally believe that you can be a competitor, PT, and psychologist when you're older-- not to mention probably write some best selling books in the process. ;)

    Have a great weekend, Britt!

    1. Thank you! And yes--I am the stereotypical girl making sandwiches... *sigh.* Haha!

      I think once you get into junior/senior year you'll start to figure it out. It takes a few subjects to get into to really unearth what your interests are. :) And thank you. Wow. You really know how to make me feel fuzzy inside. :)

      You too!
