hospital?

pardon the fact that its been a long while.

K I have a story to tell that I'm a little ashamed of because I should have known better. People have been scolding me about it, "Julia, of ALL people YOU, should have known better. I KNOW I KNOW. jeez I guess I just had to learn my lesson. Here you go.

So since I start crossfit, my muscle mass has increased, so since crossfit became one of my main ways of working out and running got pushed to like 2 days a week instead of 5, I started to suffer with the muscle gain. It was harder to run, it hurt my legs instead of my lungs and it bugged the crap out of me. I was heavier and because of that I couldn't run fast anymore!! So 3 weeks ago I decided that 2 weeks before the race I would do a "cleanse" to help me drop a few so that viola I could run faster right? and then have a week to eat normal food before the race to get all my stores and energy up, good idea right? haha well I thought so. I started last sunday and honestly felt great for 5 days, sure in the evenings I would get tired early and then just go to bed, but as far as feeling super light headed or weak, that wasn't happening! Then thursday at lunch my bro was like, hey, mary, scott, tom and I are going to run 13 miles tonight, wanna join? freak ya I want to join! Well at least I was smart enough to do this, once I found out I was running 13, I started eating carbs, see I'm not totally dumb! Its just I guess eating carbs 4 hours before running 13 miles after not eating like any for 5 days just isn't enough. also guys, its 85 degrees outside, keep that in mind.

So after mile 3, I was dying, I was thirsty, starving and just dead tired. My legs didn't hurt, I wasn't out of breath, but I just couldn't run. Well, I couldn't just turn around could I? Well in my mind I couldn't. So i trudged on. At about mile 7, I legit had to start walking. I have never had to walk on a run before but I had to stop. I got to the point where I would run for a minute and walk for a minute, its all I could do to keep moving. I was so thirsty and hungary its all I could think about. These were the people there, David, Tom and scott were like half a mile ahead of me and mary and her roommate were half a mile behind me, and great, me, I was all by my half dead self. I even legit considered laying down in the shade right off the road in someones yard and just sleeping. I guess thats when I should have known it was bad. Well, at the end of that farm road, it was like 4 miles, david and them had stopped because apparently they had given us the wrong name of the  road we were going to turn on so they stopped to let us know. So we all waited there for a few minutes, started walking, and I, could barely pick up my feet. the boys took off and Mary, kiley and I half ran half walked. Mary had been doing the cleanse with me and was equally dying. Then we realized mary was listening to music on her iphone. DUH WE ARE CALLING SOMEONE TO PICK US UP. Well by the time we finally got a hold of someone, we had gotten a mile and a half from home. but it was worth it cause I don't think I would have made it any further. Well my dear roommate Whitney came to get us, i didn't realize I was in that bad of shape until whitney pulled up to pick us up, and I started sobbing uncontrollably. I was just so glad it was over and emotionally and physically gone.

So I get home and guzzle 2 huge glasses of water, I can't really stand so I just grab peanut butter and a banana and start wolfing it down on the kitchen floor. Then I make a pb&j and kind of lie down while trying to eat it and I get half way through before my stomach starts to feel sick and my whole body is so tired I start kind of convulsing and I'm so weak I can barely pick up my head, then I start freaking out so I'm sobbing and hyperventilating. Then my hands started to seize and I couldn't move them, same with my face, and they were tingling uncontrolably. My roommates are trying to calm me and my roommies faience and my fhe bro give my a blessing. Looking back, it would have been pretty scary to see and I'm sorry they had to see it, if I were them I wouldn't know what to do!! Well after nothing was getting better they took me to the hospital. I was so weak I couldn't even pick up my head, I had to get carried like a dead person! well I got there and they took me back. Apparently the reason my hand and face were seizing because I was hyperventilating. also,  I was dehydrated and didn't have enough food in me. So they pretty much just calmed me down, gave me an I-V and I was on my way.

I've never been so scared in my life! I didn't know what was happening and I have learned my lesson about trying to "drop a few" and then running 13 miles. never again.

I'm still feeling the effects from it. Fri morning I felt like I got hit by a bus so I didn't work out and then last night and today all I've wanted to do is sleep, I feel weak. that was the hardest thing i've ever done emotionally and physically. I was so drained.

Well the spartan race is in 6 days so I BETTER BE BETTER. 100%. k
that was  a long story and I'm sorry, but it just freaked me out and I hadn't blogged in a while, so I thought i'd share.

Party of the year

so last night my roommates and I threw a party for Christina's Bday party. She wanted something awesome and big to help start of being 21, so my apartment started planning. We then found that it was a couple other peoples birthday the same week as hers so we made it a tri-bday party.

We created this event of Fbook and a few people said they were comin and then as more and more people said they were comin we got really excited. 85 pl baby!
So we reserved the Nauvoo lounge and got an awesome DJ, Taylor Klein, and then did some decorating up stairs, got some sodas and some candies and then cleared out downstairs for the dance party.

No on shows up on time of course, but even when it was just all my roommates and like 10 other people the dance party was awesome. Great lighting and music etc....then the people started comin!

First off, we didn't even recognize half the people that showed up. People were coming because they heard there was a party or because they heard the music from a long way away and wanted to come! It was excellent. So many attractive men in one place! How did we get all of these men in one place?! It was quite the attractive party for both guys and girls.

At one point you could barely move upstairs there were so many people!

People were coming and going the whole night, but at one time there was probably at least 150 people there and probably a total of 300 coming in and out the whole night.

Lets just say IT WAS A SUCCESS. I got to meet so many new people and it was just marvelous. Christina looked hot. She's freaking awesome and I love her! So glad we were able to throw that awesome party together and bask in the success of it.

ps. MY MOM IS COMING IN 3 HOURS. I CANNOT WAIT. I love my mom. happy saturday.

True Joy

Talked about finding true joy and happiness today in church. Loved it.
It put me in this amazing mood, I just loved it.
It got me thinking about how all my happiest times are when my family is all together and just how grateful I am for how amazing they are!!

It also made me so happy about the gospel and how I am so glad its in my life because that is really how I find joy in everything. There is so much hope in the world and its just been a joyful day.

A few excitements

1. My oldest sister Annalise just had her first baby!! I now have a new nephew. His name is John Edward Sandberg. Isn't that just a lovely name? and from the pictures I see, he's pretty dang cute. Can't wait to hold him!

2. In exactly 2 months from today I will be doing this again. I don't think word can express how freaking excited I am....






































3. Its CHRISTINAS birthday today :) She's 21 my friends. All grown up, I love her! So glad we're able to live together this semester.



























get to run 6 miles tomorrow morning, I've been away from running for a while because of a really bad cold. Can't wait to be back on track!

sometimes

I just can't sleep at night,
and sometimes, I really can't sleep at night.
Well last night was definitely one of those nights.
Went to bed at 11:30, it took me longer than the usual 5-10 minutes to fall asleep

woke up at 1:50, thinking, wow, Its really hot in here and wow my hand hurts really bad (calluses ripped off from kipping pull-ups). I was definitely not going back to sleep. Pushed open the window and laid in my bed on my laptop just doing the randoms for an hour. Then I'm like, k, lets have a go at this whole sleep thing again. I lay there for another hour trying to get confortable. I was tossing and turning so much. So when 4 rolled around and I was definitely not going back to sleep, I decided to be productive. So I did homework!
I got all my homework done for Family Foundations and did some biostatistics. It is now 6 in the morning, I've been doing hw for 2 hours and I've been up for 4. I'm still wide awake..

I guess its time to move on to anat and phys hw!

Something tells me that 2 hours of sleep will not be enough and that a major crash sesh this afternoon will be a necessity. As for right now, I'm feelin great!

a sunfilled day

yesterday was the first good day seattle has given us since we've been home. so we spent the day adventuring and enjoying the sun <3





































PS. those trails up there are the trails I run all the time :) now can you see why I love them so much? they're 2 minutes from my house and its like I'm in the mountains! This is the first time I've hiked them, so I was finally able to take photos!

Home

Watching one of my favorite shows with my mom right now, I Shouldn't Be Alive.
Went sailing the other day in the Puget Sound. it was perfect
Cadbury eggs are my favorite, I had the opportunity to consume 8 of them yesterday

Ran in the trails this morning down to the lake. Most relaxing and amazing run of my life. Found a trail that ran on the waterfront for a mile. Trees, ferns, mud, and the smell of fresh flowers. perfect

Purchased my first pair of colored pants. they are mint my friends. They're from H&M and I love them.

Visited my old work yesterday and was able to catch up with Kasey and Amanda over chinese food. Oh how I miss all our work conversations.

There has been lots of shopping. I got some neon orange nike shorts, neon pink nail polish, blouses of course, and my favorite purchases, this J Crew bathing suite!

I ordered it online and I really hope it fits! I had to get a size up because of my ridiculously long torso. Some of their other bathing suites had a "long torso" option that makes it several inches longer. This one didn't have that option, sooooo I went with the size up. It was just worth it because I loved it so much!

Also, my hair? Yes I like it and its fun. But that one photo makes it look so much better and a good blonde color. But in real life its a lot more yellow and brassy. I'm going to get it fixed soon. 2 weeks of plasma and then off to the salon to get it not so brassy. I can't wait for that. I will be so much more confident! Not that I don't like it, its just I loved my hair before and now I'm not very confident.

last day

Goin home baby!!! I finished with finals on wednesday and have seriously been bummin it. Stef left last night and I don't know when I'll see her again! She's such a fast runner that she's leaving us mere mortals to go run cross country for BYU hawaii!!! Thats right, she's a beast.  She found out about a week ago, its been her dream forever so she's pumped. I'm just so sad that I wont be living with her in the fall. There were some tears last night and I already miss her. She is awesome.

Also, last night/this morning it snowed. like whaaaaa.

christina and I loaded all our crap down flights of stairs, into the back of my track, then back up flights of stairs into our new apt. in a blizzard. Everything was snowfilled and it was FREEZING.

kinda funny seeing as it was 60 earlier this week and supposed to be 70 on monday....

time to drive home now. see ya

purple and green armpits











This weekend I went to the color festival for the first time. What a cool thing! We made it a fast trip, woke up at 5 on Saturday and drove down. Then drove back that night getting in around 11. Look at the picture above where all the colors are being thrown. Notice how it just turns into a dust? Well theres this constant dust and chalk in the air which makes it quite difficult to breath. It was really difficult and it felt like I had chalk lining my throat! It was a fun filled day though if I do say so! Luckily my hair didn't get dyed! I got lucky, stef's is definitely still pink and green. The one thing that did get stained though was my feet and armpits. I kid you not, it looked like my feet were severely bruised and my armpits were dyed. I found it quite amusing.

crossfit games

1 month ago I signed up for BYUI's crossfit games. There were only 2 other girls on the list, and since I do it about 2 times a week i thought, "what the hey!?"

Then suddenly I was going to go out of town this weekend, so I did nothing to "prepare" myself for the games.

But alas, 3 days ago things changed and  I didn't go out of town so I decided to do it.
of course it took the convincing of some guys at the front desk to persuade me, but I decided to.

It was hard guys. like way hard. One of the girls was a BEAST. and I mean BEAST. and the other 2 were amazing too. There were only 4 of us, and it was clear I was the 4th best. Its not like I was bad or anything,  they were just better, they had been doing crossfit much longer. 

Well I was 100 points behind after the first 3 sets of workouts. But the last one involved swimming, and I beasted it. lapped all of them multiple times and pulled myself from 4th to 3rd! I was so happy.

I was at the gym from 9 in the morning to 3:30 in the afternoon. haha shooot!! There were like 20 guys, so for each event, there had to be about 3-4 heats. Hears the WOD if you care:

7 mins to find 1 RM Clean & Jerk

AMRAP in 18 minutes: 15 SDLHP (sumo dead lift high pull) (45lbs), 9 burpees, 9 pull-ups, 9 Overhead squat (45 lbs), 20 weighted lunges (25 lbs)

Behind the head ball throw, 3 chances for distance. 30 lbs

AMRAP in 11 minutes: 1 lap swim, 16 hand release push-ups, 1 lap swim, 16 air squats

I had an amazing time, a dang good saturday workout, and I found some crossfit buddies now!

I'm so much more motivated than I was before, I'm gunna start training for next semesters games!

I'm going to start working out with 2 girls I met and one of the guys, tuesdays, wednesdays, fridays and saturdays. So pumped I found other girls that do crossfit!

also, monday i will run 13 miles, my first half marathon! On my own around rexburg.....haha, fun stuff!

what was I thinking

about 4 years ago I decided to stop skiing because I always got so cold, and so after and hour or 2 I would be ready to stop. It just wasn't worth the money.

This past saturday I went skiing for the first time since 2008. Sweet mother of pearl why did I stop?!?!
It was the best time I've had in a long time! Not to mention the snow we had was incredible. We were skiing in snow to our shins and knees the whole time and I even got into some snow up to my chest! It was amazing. I picked it right back up too.

Well my friends, I think its safe to say that it wont be 4 years before I go skiing again.

A lot of Bread

well my friends, yesterday was the 29th and oh how I wished it had been a leap year because I wanted to go grocery shopping so bad! I had no food and was just waiting till March's money to come in so I could shop. Normally I would use plasma money to buy the extra food I needed, but my friends, we decided we wanted to go skiing this Saturday. which I am WAY excited about. So I've been saving plasma money for the past 3 times. I'll donate tomorrow and finally have enough to enjoy a day on the slopes.

Well, since I had no food, I knew I couldn't go all day without eating so I figured I could sacrifice 2 dollars of my plasma money to get a loaf of bread. So thats what I did. I bought it at noon and it was gone by midnight last night. That my friends is incredibly embarrassing. but was it worth it? Heck yes!!

I cannot wait to go skiing I haven't been in years! Stef, Trev, myself and some others will be going. Its gunna be a party :) Especially with all the snow we've been getting!!

Like dang gina. Rexburg is finally being rexburg. we had a foot and a half snow drift in front of our door. it was awesome.

Have a good Thursday! Just have to get through 2 hours of New Testament tonight and then its the weekend for me!! :) yay!

enough to fall over

I would have to say that the winds today in rexburg are atrocious. I started off my day with a 4 mile run followed by 4 sets of stadium stairs. Lets start with the run: 1/2 the time I was running against 35 mph winds, HA. ya. it was way hard, and sometimes it would blow me sideways. I probably looked retarded. Then when I went to the stadium, one of the times on my way down the stairs, a gust blew so strongly that it launched me down 4 steps and I had to grab onto the rail so that I would not face plant. This wind my friends, is a little intense.

Also, I saw this on pinterest and kind of laughed to myself. I first saw it and was like, ya thats right!! and then I saw the bottom and was like whatttt?? they put a stupid except in there! I'm sorry but there IS no excuse for bad weather, see that man? he is running in the cold. This is exactly what it looked like in rexburg, on my 9 mile run on monday, 18 degrees and all. In fact I'm pretty sure this picture was taken on my route, because that looks like exactly where I was running. (I half ice skated my run you see, almost face planted too). So erase the bottom part and just read the top. No excuses people!

Day 33


























Why tonight was awesome:
1. Cards
2. Laughter
3. Long talks
4. Sweet kisses
5. "Tickling" each others face and back, its the most relaxing thing in the world
6. Heart flutters
7. Not being able to sleep even 2 1/2 hours after you got home because your mind is working so hard on trying to figure out how you got so lucky.

this might just be the girliest post i've ever done. I am sorry, I will spare you my obnoxiously annoying stories about my love life in the future, and keep them to myself. I just had to post this because I'm giddy, okayyyy

for the first time

I went to Wyoming yesterday! I can now add another state to my travels. It was a group date thing with trevor and his roommates. We went to Jackson for a hockey game! It also happened to be my first hockey game, so waddabing waddaboo, two firsts in one evening. Once we got to the Jackson hole pass, it pretty much snowed the rest of the trip. All the snow from the morning in Rexburg had melted by the time we left. But rexburg got the same snow everywhere else did that evening. We came back to like 4 inches!! Its the most snow we've gotten all winter. It was pretty exciting.

yes we were totally twins. on accident. haha oh purple


with good ol' knuckles at the end!
Twas a very fun trip. Cannot wait until tomorrow, we're going to the hot springs that are in the middle of the mountains! Thats right. Its gunna be awesome. What a solid 3 day weekend.

summer winter


I really do just want it to be summer. I'm getting a little bit cabin feverish with all this movie watching and card playing. Its still a blast <3 but I love the outdoors!! I'm ready for hiking, bridge jumping, bonfires, windows down, running in the sun, cliff jumping, and sand duneing. 

We've had a very mild winter here in Rexburg, so I guess we have been fairly lucky :) but the past 2 weeks have been just a little chilly with nothing special. Just cloudy skies. And summer is still distant. So when I came down to make lunch this afternoon to snow falling I couldn't help but be a little overjoyed :) Especially when its falling like a dream.

So sure, I want summer, but I don't mind snow falling perfectly while I wait.

Some Days

Are just meant to spend in your pajamas all day, doing homework, and listening to music. And yes this is my bed hair, and yes its 1 pm and I still haven't touched it. Be jealous of its beautifulness. I slept through practice, what a surprise. Woke up at 8, did New Testament homework, found new music, and thats about it.  I'm about to head out running but Savannah wants to tag along and she has definitely been sleeping for the past 3 hours...

Oh I got flowers yesterday :) yay for your boys roommate who's in a floral design class. I get to be the lucky receptor of these beautiful arrangements.

Going to Montana again this weekend. Quite excited, though it will be a different mood than last time. His brother got in a really bad skiing accident and broke his neck. Might be a quadriplegic, BUT he's doing so much better than they originally thought. Keep him in your prayers please <3 his name is Wes, and he's such a great guy and has so many people praying for him. I'm surprised trevor even invited me up with him, I thought I would be intruding but he insisted I wouldn't be. I just want it to be tomorrow already.

Heres a blog his family has created with updates on him, even if you don't know him I encourage you to check it out. Its interesting, heart wrenching and inspiring all in one. Go here for the blog.

Well my roommate still isn't up, so I'm going to go jump on her, I gots to get my run on.

of track but busy?

remember how I was off track and so I was going to have so much time to blog? Like blog about my outfits, and fitness etc. haha well I might not have a job...but I'm pretty dang busy somehow. Reason A. I'm a head trainer for the Biggest Winner program at school (like the biggest loser). B. I'm also a Nutrition consultant for the biggest winner. C. I'm taking 7 credits so Its not like I'm totally bumming it. D. I'm also volunteering at the Physical therapy place. and lastly E, I've been spending a crap ton of time at my friend Trevors place :) Lets just say I've hung out with him everyday for the past 2 weeks. I'm a happy girl.

A. Being a trainer for the Biggest Winner might just be one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. We just had our first week and all the days were great, growing closer to my girls and stuff (I have a team of 7 girls, and 3 assistant trainers). But Saturday was incredible. We've been doing cardio and weights but saturday we switched it up and I took them to the Hart Gym where we ran sets of stairs and did push-ups, sit-ups, planks, and squats etc in between. I can't tell you how incredible these girls are! Tears were shed, prayers were said for strength, and I learned a lot. It was amazing :)

B. Being a Nutrition consultant is also way fun because I'm the only one thats volunteering as both a trainer and a nutritionist so I have like 3 of my girls that I get to help with their diet and working out! Instead of 2 separate people. I love it.

C. I absolutely love my religion classes. SO GOOD. And American Epidemic is also very exciting to learn about, because that has a lot with what I want to go into.

D. Trevor Greene: Sweetest, nicest guy I've met in a long time and he makes me happy.

also, I played a show on saturday, what a BLAST.

Snow for winter



 Blouse: H&M, Sweater: Old Navy, Jeans: Maurices, Watch: BP, Necklace: For Love

Look at me! I posted 2 days in a row with this whole fashion blog test run. Mainly because 2 days in a row I had a roommate home in daylight hours to take pictures of my outfits.. I wore this with black pencil skirt earlier in the day for Devotional where Elder L. Tom Perry spoke! We also finally have snow! We got some the past few days, thank goodness. I was beginning to feel like winter would never happen. Also, note to self after this shoot, make sure your apt. number is not in the picture..oops!

entertaining the Idea

So some of my friends have brought up the idea that I should make a fashion blog...so here goes nothing.





Top: Target, Blazer: Love Culture, Pants: Urban Outfitters, Watch: Brass Plum

Maybe I'll just post pictures of my outfits every once in a while on here. Not really jump full fledged into fashion blogging, because I probably wouldn't survive. We'll se how this goes.


PS. Had Jamba officially for the first time last night, actually had my own. I know right? It should be a sin.

Montana

going to Montana this weekend! To make a long story as short as I can...here we go:

Roommate Shelby brings boys over, I come down, meet them, and I start to realize that one boy looks familiar, I wasn't sure where, so I asked what his last name was, Greene he said. ohhhh ohhhh haha this is funny. So the Greenes are a family in Tyrels ward, and their families are really good friends. Actually, the second weekend I hung out with Tyrel we stayed at the Greenes cabin, and then another time when I was in montanan we had a big dinner at the Greenes house because their son had just got home from his mission. Well that was trevor, I met him when I was dating Tyrel (barely met hime), was there for his homecoming, hung out with his family, no big deal. HA. well now its funny because my roommate is like best friends with his whole apartment and I've been hanging out with them too because they're awesome, and we're all going to his house to party! (He has a bomb  house, I'm telling you, its ginourmous) So theres a big group of us going up for funsies this weekend. I guess I'm heading back to Three Forks after all!

yay for adventurous weekends! because honestly, Montana is a blast.

Storm Warning



This was me walking to campus yesterday. good bye good hair day.

Monday, January 16, 2012

days go by

what my days consist of:
-running in freezing weather, but its sunny so its beautiful at least
-going to the gym
-helpless job hunting
-blogging, since I now have a new fitness blog, go here to check it out. and I'm going to soon have a fashion blog. woot woot!
-and dating. holy crap dating. I swear I've turned into a dating machine. I need to learn to say no so that I can hang with my friends. at least its fun and I get free food? haha

a result of running in the freezing: getting bronchitis. I think it might just be happening. after a few runs outside my lungs were starting to get weezy and then it turned into a full blown hacking cough. I laugh and it turns into a marvelous cough attack. But I feel fine. I just have this nasty cough. My friends say its probs from all the running in single digit temps. its not stopping me though!! haha running in the cold makes me fast for when I'm inside.




Sunday, January 8, 2012

New blog

Well, since I'm off track, I have a little bit of time to dedicate to other things other than just gym, school, and church. SO. as you all have probably noticed, I am obsessed with fitness and health! So while I'm at school this semester, I'm going to start a fitness blog! Just about working out, motivation, healthy foods, all that jazz! I'm so excited! It will be like a record of my life long journey to health. 

Come follow it! I did my first two posts yesterday, and I'm excited! Its called Your choices, Your Results.
To find it, go here.

not for me

I wore fake nails for the first time on my birthday, and if theres one thing I learned, its that they are not for me. I couldn't lift weights or punch people without stabbing my own palm. no bueno.

birthday, new year, and off to rexburg

so these past few days were awesome.

and I'm 20 now! not a teenager anymore! not that  that changes anything. I'm still weird.

This past week I went shopping I'm pretty sure like everyday. haha. got a few things each day to kind of add up to a lot. christmas and birthday combined in one week just does that to you.

I got some really nice nike running tights and top so I can run in rexburg this winter!

And some cute sweaters and blouses from F21 cause lets be honest, all I wear is sweaters and blouses.

also an awesome necklace and earrings from For love

and then some cute things from H&M.

dudes, for my birthday I got a Kitchen aid! those things are nice! and now I totally have one that will last me for life. I wont use it at college like at all cause all I do is eat fruits veggies and like rice and bread. I never bake. I don't buy sugar or flour or anything like that cause I don't need it, and then, I don't make it! and so, I eat healthy. but in the long run, this will be great :)

also, it is the new year! goals?

workout goals for this semester:
right now I'm at 40 pushups, 65 sit ups, 5 pull ups, and 13:40 2 mile

goal by the end of the semester
65 push-ups, 90 sit ups, 8 pull ups and a 13 min 2 mile.
also, to increase my mileage, because I definitely have not been running far enough

anddd I kind of want to do the teton dam marathon in May, it will be 2 months before my spartan beast, so I feel like that would be good to get used to the mileage.

another goal I do have is better scripture study and prayer. when is this not something I could improve on? I swear its something that can always be improved.

but ya, I'm leaving for rexburg on tuesday, I can't wait!

living with stef and sav. let the crazy party begin
