Strength Goals

Today was an awesome day. School was pretty normal. In my weightlifting class I was clean and jerking and got a new max of 180 lbs. I felt super excited because of that. After school I was trying my new workout program and it was amazing. I hit 200 lbs for 3ish on bench and 75×5 on dumbbell bench. After school I had some protein and a lot of meat. Also some vegetables for dinner.

Rotary packed

Today was a really packed day, even though I wasn’t in school. I kind of got to sleep in before I got picked up for my rotary meeting. I had my presentation today. It went pretty well and I think that everyone liked it. Afterwards I went to the Y for a quick workout. Then I got picked up by Julie to go to her rotary meeting. After this meeting I was stuffed, but we went on working. I helped Julie working in the Yard. After we were done I went shopping real quick. I talked to my mum for a while and we had tacos for dinner.

Working on my presentation

Today was a good day. I started out kind of early and slept before school. Somebody opened all the compartments of my bag, while I was sleeping. But they didn’t take anything, so I guess it was just a prank. I worked on my triceps in weightlifting class and I got a great pump. After school I worked on shoulders and had a really good workout, too. Now, I’m using all my spare time to work on my presentation about my exchange, which I have to hold tomorrow.

Sore forearms

Today was a good day, although I was pretty tired in the morning. I got a little rest in the morning. I tried a new workout in Weightlifting and I crushed it, which gave me a lot of confidence. I had biscuits for lunch because my toast was moldy. I did my legs today, even though it was supposed to be a back day, because my forearms were sore and I didn’t want to risk messing up the whole workout. It was a really good leg workout. At home I spent another couple hours babysitting. Today we had Tater Tots and Chicken for dinner.

Water-Skiing

Today started out earlier than I would have liked it to. We had to bring the 2 other exchange students to the meeting point so they could go home. Afterwards we went out for a boat ride. We tried the Wakeboard, but we just couldn’t do it. We also tried the water-skis and a kneeboard, and we managed to handle those two. After we got back I had a little time to relax before people came over for dinner. They brought their little children and I kind of did some babysitting, but it was a lot of fun. As always the food was really good.

District Conference Day 2

Today started out very early. We had to be at the Conference by 6:30 to practice for the Flag ceremony. We also had breakfast very shortly afterwards. After breakfast they took the exchange students to King’s Bay for a boat tour and a pizza party. I saw a manatee for the first time and it was a really fun boat tour. By the time we got back we had a little time to relax by the pool before we had to get ready for dinner. The dinner was really good and they also had a magic show going on. At about 10 we got home and went straight to bed. Overall, it was a pretty fun conference and I was glad to see all the others again.

District Conference Day 1

Today was the first day of the district conference. I got up a little earlier to talk to my parents and my brother. At about 11 we went to the district conference, which is about 5 min away from us. They had a discussion about Human trafficking during lunch. Then we had free time for a couple hours and all the exchange students hung out together and had fun. Then we had dinner, which was good too. Also, a band was playing. Now, I have to go to bed early because I have to get up at 6.

Only 2 school days this week!

Today was the second of my two school days this week. Tomorrow I will be at the Rotary District Conference. School was pretty much the same as always. I made up a test in the morning. Lunch was weird today, because one of my friends was a littly moody at the beginning. After school I had a really good chest day. But I’m working on a new workout plan, to spice it up a little and probably increase my bench max. I washed my clothes today and we had a really late dinner at 10 pm.

Earth Day!

Yesterday was Earth Day, but today we made an event for 3rd graders about the earth and its value. I got up fairly early and we went straight to work. We set everything up and about 9:45 the kids arrived. I was stationed at bowling. It was a pain picking up the bottles every two seconds and setting them back up. The wind tipping them over certainly didn’t help either. Afterwards we had lunch, which was really good. I helped Roger cleaning up and bringing the stuff back to the storage unit. I worked out legs today, they were still a little sore but I had a great workout. My top set on squats even felt relatively easy today. At home I worked on my presentation that is next week and had chili for dinner.

Sleepover

Today was a pretty normal day. Before school I started making up my history test. School was good too. I benched a little which was fun but I didn’t get the results I wanted. Julie picked me up from school and drove me to the Y. I had a decent shoulder workout. I took a shower afterwards but I forgot a towel so I used my shirt. Hazel picked me up from the Y and I‘m going to stay the night at their house. We talked a lot and I had a lot of fun. We had a really good dinner.
