WatchWahoo! Not graceful, but got the job done. 10/13 attempts. Not bad. 2 in the past week, then BAM! Ten in one day.

DAY 2 CBL
I worked out in the morning today. Popped out of bed at 7:30 like clockwork. Had a cup of coffee, some BSN Cell Mass 2.0, and MP Assault. Then went to the gym. I think I woke up to early to fast. But, anyway, I started to WOD at 9 or so. The snatches felt pretty good, but my elbow is all outta wack. Oh well. Chiropractor on Friday! Then 10 MU, 21-15-9 65# snatches/C2B pull-ups and 10 MU. I...
So, I'm Trying This New Thing.
Training has been really hard lately, and I’ve been getting my head smashed in. I’ve been toeing the line next to over training with the WolfPack, and it’s starting to show. Not to mention it’s finals, and I don’t have the luxury of keeping my stress levels as low as my non-law school attending training counterparts.
So, I’m switching around my diet in an...
Ermagherd.
I made the cut for our CrossFit Regionals team. Holy crap.
Simultaneously stoked and scared shitless.
Lawl Skool Problems
Classmate: Hey. Hey you!
Me: Yeah?
Classmate: Yeah, you, quadriceps. I don't know what else to call you. But whatever, you want to buy a squat rack?
Me: YES. But I have no space.
Favorite all time outfit of choice.
Navy v-neck. Skinny destroyed jeans. Vans. Socks that repeatedly say “fuck” on them. Dress for success?
Now onto the lawl skool where we’re serious people who do serious things.

Things to do.
1. Quit worrying about uncertainty and start embracing the moment. I forget to do this all the time. I blame lawl skool.
2. Quit blaming things and stop making excuses. I choose to do a lot of things. I choose to do a lot of hard things. I have done a lot of hard things.
3. Laugh a little more at myself. I’m a total goofball, and it’s okay.
4. Lead by example. Sit up, shut up, and...

Well. Fuck.
I got shown up on 13.2 by a teammate. 315 v. my 271. I don’t think I could’ve gone any faster without completely blowing up. I never stopped moving. I’ve been crushing her in WODs consistently since she joined WolfPack. We we’re friends before, but now she’s been icy since joining. I don’t know what’s up.
Game. On.
I think my schedule may have thrown...

Tolerance and Difficult Dialogues.
Today I had a meeting with some fellow law student organization leaders and our dean about how to build a more tolerant environment. The 1Ls have been struggling to treat each other with respect and dignity; they have been using social media as a tool to produce negative and deconstructive conversations that have resulted in some administrative investigations.
For me, as the leader of an LGBTQ...

Conversations with my dear friend, the doctor. Re:...
R: I need something. I'm not working 70 hours a week.
Me: You need to go to yoga.
R: But, I don't know if I'll like it.
Me: Hey, remember that time yoga saved your ass in third year?
R: But, it's hot yoga.
Me: It's Evolv. That place is amazing. You'll fit right in.
R: But, it's far.
Me: It's worth the ten minute drive.
R: Well, I don't know when I would go.
Me: You know how you slap me upside the head sometimes because I am being an idiot? Here. Let me return the favor. I love you. You are a brilliant friend. However, you have not been pleasant the last few weeks for whatever reason. I know you need something. Hot yoga is an hour out of your day for you to be you; for you to get out of that very smart brain of yours, and heal yourself. Take off your damn white coat and get to the studio, now. Take any class. It doesn't matter. Just go.
R: (two hours later after class) OHMYGODTHATWASAMAZING.
Me: Told you.
