Five on Friday

Another week ends! My weekdays always seem to just fly by between working, class, studying, and study groups. This is a good thing when it is my weekend off like this one is!

Uno. OMG, the weather lately has just been unbelievable. It hasn't rained in over a week, and for the last few days it has been like 75-80 degrees and sunny with zero humidity, which is the absolute best!! I hate humidity so much, like, it ruins my life! It is just the most uncomfortable feeling in the whole world. It is supposed to stay like this for a long time, too, so I'm really excited! So beautiful.

Dos. The other day I was like fan obsessing over the 2000 Sydney gymnastics team (my favorite gymnastics team ever) and Elise Ray. I seriously love this girl so much and her entire career and story. She is just like the most HUMBLE person on the planet and had the most UNFAIR and horrible Olympic experience anyone has ever had, and yet she has moved on to so many bigger and better things. I could watch her routines over and over and never ever get sick of them. She is so amazing to her fans; she has replied to emails I've sent her twice! This video is when she got the double twisting DLO dismount named after her (Ray III) and even though a few other gymnasts have done it since her (Shawn Johnson being one), no one will ever perform it as perfectly and effortlessly as her. (PS notice Tim says "full twisting DLO" and Elfie yells "DOUBLE!" because no one knew she was throwing it. She did that also twice at the 2000 Nationals on Vault and Bars - threw new huge skills without anyone knowing in such major competitions). LOVE LOVE LOVE JUST SO MUCH LOVE.

Tres. Filming for season 3 of the best show on television [REVENGE] begins on July 15th!!! I'm so so super excited for the next season. The season 2 season finale had like 6 CLIFFHANGERS omg it was SO RIDICULOUS! I'm planning on re-watching both the first and second seasons during the rest of the summer so that everything will be fresh in my mind by the time the third season starts. BEST SHOW EVER OMG. Just. OMG.

Cuatro. The NFL season (aka the best time of the year) kicks off in 55 short days! (This picture is from yesterday.) Football is my favorite sport to watch other than gymnastics, and I'm a die hard Green Bay Packer fan. I love watching any game though, honestly, it could be any team in the league and I'd still watch it. Super exciting also for my city is that the Buffalo Wild Wings they are currently building will be completed by the time the season starts, so we will have a new place to go and watch games.

Cinco. Weight loss! Today I stepped on the scale and got to celebrate hitting 10 pounds of weight lost! I made it to 9 about two weeks ago, but with the 4th of July I had a couple of cheat days so it took me a little longer to get to this goal. I have now lost 10.6 pounds in 6 weeks! I'm so excited and I feel great and that this lifestyle change is finally going to work for me. I can't wait to lose more and get closer to my goal weight. It's still a long way away, but I know I will get there!

Have a great weekend loves!
