HEY YA

hey folks
How are you? life is still tough on my end. Well life is good, just getting myself back to where i want and need to be still is a struggle. Its common amoung bodybuilders to be so tough on themselves, i am especailly hard on myself. I cant help it. I guess deep down somewhere i know how much better i can be so it makes me to be tough on myself. I wear my heart on my sleeve. A lot of times people can tell whats up with me because its written all over my face. I cant hide my emotions, tho i try to. Since my last post, the motivation i had when i wrote it has come.... and gone. I only got to the gym couple times and comtinue to eat! i am HUGE right now. My face looks like a gigantic pumpkin head lol! Weight comes and goes i guess.....but hell, i gota get some of it GOING!!!!!!!!!! The break i have been taking is hard but im sure good for my body.

NYC was fun. ALL i did was shop. yah and Guess what was across the street from my hotel?? Cold Stone Creamery!!! GOOD LORD thats all i needed rite. So i got enough of that to do me until next year. BLAHH. I was glad to come home tho, i could never live there. TOO MANY PEOPLE and traffic! holy moly. If i did move , i would like to move to Cali, live on the beach somwhere near santa monica.... if i could get up the guts to do it..

I didnt go down to AC while in NY to watch the show over the weekend.... BUT WOW, the ladies were amazing. I am excited to see the Olympia next weekend and will anxiously be waiting to see Heather....or Dayana take the crown. I will not retire until i stand on the O stage.

heres a quote a fan sent me that i love,
