remember that “Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out

I need to remind myself of this goal a lot more often. Ive got to put myself out there more and experience all that life has to offer.

Run around the city doing push ups and whatnot, high on endorphins then jump into the dirty lake!

I miss sweating. maybe all i need is to take Bikram yoga again!!! i miss the high feeling i used to get after class.

...its been a while since my body has endured such self inflicted torture. Well thats what makes memories right? This is such an amazingly great goal. Life is to be lived my friends. live it today.

had me out stomping my feet and enjoying night-life twice already. seems like i am waking up to life again and even winning the game of who stayed up longest last night, lol!
i am sure it added to wearing out my body as i replaced martinis by other poisonous drinks starting with wine ending with tequila and grabbing some red bull to give me wings :)
if i keep it up for another while, i will be able to mark this goal as done :) good progress :)

thought one:
all i want to do is go home, get into bed, wrap myself cosily and watch tely.
thought two:
hey, i am not going to grow old before i should. i can watch the tely as much as i want when i grow old.

so glad i added this goal to my list. reminds me i am not here to go with the flow and just exist. i am here to live!

there was certainly dancing

this week i have been busy. i actually didn’t spend 1 evening the way i used to.
i used to go home after work, walk my dog and then do nothing. television and internet were my leisure mates.
now i do go home and walk my dog (he needs some loving) but as well i do yoga classes, not reject invites and meet people even though it means get dressed and out the door again, i went to a fashion show and a concert this week. not 1 evening in! i sincerelly hope this will enfold into a new lifestyle because i am too young to be living like i used to. i told my dog that i am sorry i leave him alone more often lately but i need to come back to life, meet new people and hopefully the other half of me out there!

i met up with a long lost and back to my life friend. she was my best friend when i was in my teens, we were quite a team, did a lot of mad things together. sio we sat down talking, spent like 12 hrs together, couldn’t let go of each other, so many things had to be said.
she made a remark that hit me real bad. she said to me: “you have changed a lot. you have become too serious. you need to get your passion for life back”.
so this goal is absiolutely about getting the passiong for life back :)

Yeah, this is basically the most amazing life lesson I have ever come across, including the facebook bumper sticker that said, “My true love is out there somewhere, and they can go fuck themselves.”

that being said, I feel that we all should embrace our inner wild child, and that sometimes being good is actually bad, and that being terribly naughty is good for us. At least, thats been my experience. ;)
