Fit or Thick?

For anyone that knows either me or Cole you know we have a never ending battle to get strong and lean. We just weren't blessed with the genes like other people and it takes a lot more work for us. Anyways about a year and a half ago I was pretty avid gym goer and I ate a pretty lean diet. I felt about the best I've felt in my life but then I got busy with school, work, and the love of my life and the gym to a back seat to movies and taco shops. When we came out to Hawaii I decided this was my big chance to get back in shape but we had no idea where we were gonna work out at. Then one day when we were sneaking into the pool at turtle bay I met this guy, Desmond Anesa. He worked there and I was trying to get him to give me a towel but he saw right through my crap and called me out on not staying at the hotel. I thought I was screwed cause I just pissed off a giant poly, but he turned out to be really cool. He lives in Haula a town just up from Laie where we're staying. I told him that we were in the weight room and he insisted that we come work out with him and his buddies in the "Iron Shed". It's a shack full of heavy rusty weights, benches, and giant Polynesians. It has a much different attitude and feel than any gym I've ever worked out at before. I've never gone in there without soaking my clothes and everyone is knows everyone.

We've been working out there for about a month and I have definitely put on a lot of muscle but I didn't count on how much we would be eating out down here. Now'm really not sure whether I'm getting fit or thick. We've been doing a lot of cardio but good food is my favorite past time and it's amazing how a good lift gets your appetite going. I want to get ripped but I'm worried that it just might not be in the cards for me. I'm having a great time with these guys though, they've completely transformed our trip and we hang out with them quite a bit so thick or fit I'm gonna keep it up until I get home...After all it is fun to pick up heavier stuff than I've ever lifted before.

Hawaii-The idea!

Febuaryish I was trying to figure out what I was going to do for the summer. I did summer sales last summer and I thought I would probably do it again because I thought that I need the money for...That's the thing I don't really need it. I would just make myself miserable going door to door to put a few thousand extra dollars into savings for a rainy day. Anyways the thought of going straight from school to door to door and back to school was a bleak one especially since I'm pretty much working my balls off in school trying to gain some ground on my major. Then one Sunday up in Sandy I was joking around with Kristen about screwing everything and taking off and she said let's do it.

Then it clicked, I'm young not married and this would be the very best time to take a few months of and do whatever I want. So I took a job going door to door locally at comcast because I was sick of making jack.50 at sunstop in the mall. I know what you're thinking, I hate door to door. Well this one worked out different. I worked 10 hours a week whenever I wanted and I made as much money as I did last summer. (Of course I was in San Diego knocking last summer and I don't think I put much more time in than that anyways.) So I saved up a lot of money really quick and a couple months later we showed up

here. Me Shara Kristen and Cole. Were staying in BYUH housing cause it is cheap and we are having more fun than I even hoped for. Its been the summer of a lifetime. We've met a bunch of cool people and we do pretty much whatever we want everyday. Its great!

Blog or Journal?

I have stolen Kristen's diary many times over the last couple years and I've always wished that I wasn't too lazy to put pen to paper. Now I decided its time to start a blog since I spend plenty of time already screwin around on the internet instead of doing actual stuff.
