So has anyone seen the info commercials on t.v. about that ab belt that without working out, works your abs? I never purchase anything off t.v. normally, but I had to give this a try! Besides, what's a better time to start such a thing other than just before the summer starts? I'm going to need some abs anyways because I'll be going on my first cruise this coming October with Charlie and his family.
It feels great to be doing something for my body again, since I am out of high school and not involved in sports like volleyball and tennis anymore. I had my doubts, like all of you do probably about the belt, but surprisingly, what you see on the commercial is really how it works! I can sit down in front of a mirror and see my abs contracted and releasing as the intensity increases. The belt used microwaves exerted through gel pads to make the muscles contract and release. It basically feels like vibrations, which with time, become stronger and hurt just like a strenuous ab workout at the gym.
I started with intensity at about 30% and I am now, three weeks later, at 100%. I love this belt! I use it probably four times a day while doing homework and watching t.v. Especially if I am not tired at night, putting on the belt for 45 minutes does the job! With four payments, this belt was very affordable under my wallet. I can feel the difference and see the change and I couldn't be happier with my purchase!

Future Nursing, Here I Come!
I'm a little late in talking about this, but it's better late then never! So most my friends know that I originally applied to SPCC to get into the Radiation Therapy program so I could help future cancer patients. Well, to make a long story short, that did not work out. Almost, but not quite there. I've decided my next closest doorway to helping cancer patients would be to become a nurse, which is a much easier process, and work in a cancer ward! After talking to nurses at my doctor's office and my boyfriend's mom who is a nurse, I have decided this path is so right for me!
The first thing I had to do was switch my degree program from Associates of Science to Nursing. After doing that, I was informed I must take the CNA course prior to getting into the program. That had a requirement list of its own! I first had to get my TB shot, which formed a bubble under my skin and if infected, I would have a worse reaction. Obviously I didn't. Next, I got a titer blood-test done to test my immunity to the chicken pox. Of course, I am immune since I had the chicken pox as a young child. Every other shot I have already had and next was to sign up! After a whopping $310 later for entrance fee and shot fees, I am now signed up to be a certified nurse assistant for this summer!
My sister's friend, Devin Hasty, took the course last year and told me I'd basically "eat, breathe, and sleep CNA." I thought her choice of words were funny, but she's right. compacted into less than two months of material, I will be working very hard! I am going to have to cut down my work schedule at Carolina Made, which sucks, but oh well. I really could use the money so I can move out, but I'm going to move out anyways.
I'm so excited to be on my way to becoming a nurse!

NASCAR
I've been an avid fan of NASCAR for a few years now. Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Jr. cover my bedroom walls. Watching the race has always been exciting enough just by watching it on t.v. I never imagined I would ever go to a race! My dad always joked about it, and perhaps attempted to be serious, and saying he'd buy tickets for us to go as a family with my cousin, Brandon, who is a bigger fan than I am. I never take my dad seriously when he speaks of aspirations because a lot of the time they never happen. I know it is just his attempt at making everyone happy.
Luckily, I have a boyfriend who has taken my love for the race more serious than anyone else ever has. He is the one who has gifted everything NASCAR in my room. He never was a race fan himself, but compromised into letting me watch the race in between commercial breaks of Panther games. Through this, he's even grown to love the sport himself. I'm sure not as much as I do, but still that means something to me.
May 24th the date! Charlie bought us tickets to go see my man race! The one race I've missed was the one last year in June with Jr. won! Of course, I missed that one, because I was at the beach. Like an old Red Sox fan, I will always be prepared for the worst and not exactly expect my man to win. So, Charlie and I decided, that is Jr. gets screwed over, either in a wreck, or penalty, like he does often, we'll still yell loud and clear with excitement, not just to cheer Jr. on, but to hope and yell for Kyle Busch to lose. That will make the race just as joyful!
I couldn't ask for a better gift right now, and I cannot explain how excited I am for that day. I want to go all out, get all decked out in Jr. gear, since I already have some (obviously) I'll have to get Charlie Jr. attire. I'm thrilled, so I thought I would share my excitement on here to you guys!
