A couple of things:
1. Why did I start this blog? Well..interestingly enough...one of my course's that I teach for Avila.. I require the students to create a blog. I figured it was only fair if I also had to create a blog. I am excited to have this course KICK me in to writing a blog because I have always wanted to create a blog, but like so many of you will probably understand...it just never made it to the top of my to do list.
2. What do I intend to talk about on my blog? Intend? Yes...well...I intend to talk about the things I love..and the things I love to teach others. The short version of that list..I refer to it as the four "F's""
- Fitness: For those of you that know me already, know that I love LOVE working out. Some might even say I obsess...I would tend to agree. My mom will tell you that this obsession started back when I was 4, and would get up every morning at 5:00 a.m. to do "Mousercise". Now if that doesn't show my age... Oh, and for you youngsters who don't remember or have never had the good fortune of being exposed to Mousercise..it was an exercise program for kids founded by Disney that promoted health and fitness while featuring Disney music and their fave character's (Mickey, Goofy, etc.). Then came age 5 when I was sporting my legwarmers, and I moved on up to the daily "20 minute workout" that was on at 5:30 a.m. Yes...a 5 year old working out at 5:30 a.m. Need I say more?? Fast forward to age 30 and I still work out everyday, but lucky for my neighbors, minus the legwarmers. In recent years I have definitely expanded the exercise activities I enjoy. Topping off that list: 1. running 2. strength training 3. boot camp classes (created by..you guessed it.. Mrs. Legwarmers herself). I hope to help all of my friends and followers looking to start or change up a good routine. I know I am always looking for tips or new exercises that will help me improve my fitness abilities, and I look forward to providing my readers with some good information.
- Fashion..Fashion..and more Fashion: I love shopping...and even more than shopping.. I love creating a unique design every day when I get dressed. My closet is like my tools, and creating an outfit is my art. I look forward to providing my readers with some great ideas, and all while staying within a reasonable budget...after all...read on to my next bullet..
- Finance: I teach undergraduate and graduate Accounting and Finance courses. I love being a "bean counter". I hope to use this blog as a way to share some of my personal finance knowledge, and to help those readers who may struggle in this area. Also, to reach out those readers who just like to learn about how to be more financially savvy.
- Food: I am a vegetarian, and am always trying to find new ways to eat clean and natural (staying away from those packaged and processed foods), and all on a budget and while maintaining a crazy hectic work schedule. I am obsessed with educating myself on what I eat, and what really lurks in those food packages. I am excited to share some of these "finds" with my readers.
Happy reading and please feel free to comment on any particular topics you would like to hear about! After all...I love student interaction ;) !
Until next time..
