Sunday Social

I'm back! While I was gone I celebrated my birthday, went out to dinner, and changed the look of my blog. How does it look? I'm finally on my last personal training book and I am hoping to take the test in the next few weeks. I also found out I will be teaching class on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting in September and I am so excited to start!

1. What is your dream job? I love teaching aquatic classes and I wouldn't change it for the world. If I could do anything it would be a clothing or jewelry designer.



2. If you had just won the lottery and didn't need to work for money, what would you do with your time? Travel, lay out at my own private beach, shop. The list can just keep going.

3. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A teacher. I would make up fake tests and put stickers on my dad's old work papers. I was a nerd.

4. What piece of career advice would you give to someone just starting out in your field? I am just starting out in my field. Anyone have any advice for me? :

5. What are your biggest pet peeves in life, blogging, or at work? Slow drivers in the left lane, slurrping soup/ cereal, and people talking on the phone in elevators, buses, trains etc. I don't want to hear your life story sorry.

6. What are your biggest fears? Snakes, failing at something and dying.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Sunday Social Travel Edition

1. What is the best trip you've ever been on? Cancun. I have been there twice and I am itching to go back as soon as possible. It's warm, the water is gorgeous, and the food is delicious.

2. What is your best idea for a girls weekend trip? I would say NYC. There is tons of different things to do for any price range such as shopping, shows, and great restaurants.

3. What is your best idea for a couples trip? Honestly I would say Cancun again but for some variety I'll say Las Vegas. I have never been there but I would love to go and I think going with a group of people would be a lot of fun.

4. What is the best vacation on the cheap? Montauk! If you want a laid back beach vacation, Montauk is a gorgeous place to go. If you go in September the prices of hotels drop but it's still warm enough to enjoy the beach.

5. What is the place you most want to visit? Hawaii and Bora Bora. I can't choose between the two.

6. What are your vacation necessities? Sunglasses, Sunscreen, Vera Bradley bag, Camera, and Reading material.

Catch Up

Hey everyone. How was everyone's fourth of July? J and I were suppose to go to a bonfire but due to increased risks of forest fires the party was cancelled. Instead J and I just sat at home watched the DC fireworks on tv and then watched some more fireworks from our balcony. This weekend we hung out at the pool and on Saturday we went out to a local bar and played corn hole. There is a carnival in my town this week and I'm so excited to go on some rides and just walk around. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July and weekend!

Favorite TV show from the past:

I love Seinfeld. I use to watch it with my dad all the time and now I watch reruns with J.

This is really hard for me since I am a tv junkie. If I had to choose I guess it would be Greys Anatomy



What show would you NEVER do?
Getting drunk and making a fool of myself on TV does not sound like fun.

What show would you LOVE to do?

I really want to be on the amazing race. Who wants to try out with me?


TV personality/character that you feel is most 
like you?

This was hard. I could not think of anyone but the first person that popped into my head was Brooke from One Tree Hill so why not?

TV character you'd want date:

Mr. Fitz. Hot and smart

Happy Birthday America!

I hope everyone has a great 4th of July!

Swollen Ankle

It's been a while since my last post. I can't say my days have been  interesting. Most of my days consist of hanging out by the pool, studying for my personal training test, and some shopping. J's parents did come visit for 2 days last week to see the new apartment. I also hurt my ankle last week so I haven't been able to work out much but the good news is I subbed for my first aquatics class yesterday. It is always difficult teaching someone else's class since the group is use to that instructor and how they teach. I did enjoy getting back to teaching and I'm excited to teach for the rest of the week. Here are some pictures from the past couple of days. I promise I have some more exciting plans in the next couple of weeks, so I will have more to post on.
