I'm an SF-born, Seattle-raised girl, transplanted to Phoenix where I'll be getting married, and planning all the way from Orange County where I go to school (yes, it feels as crazy as it sounds). I loooooove Yogurtland, am slightly very obsessed with all things paper, am heavily addicted to wedding blogs, deeply desire a puppy, thoroughly enjoy cooking, cry when I watch (almost all) movies, thrive on solo car-karaoke, can't stop being sarcastic, am neurotic about taking pictures of almost everything I eat before I eat it, and aspire to travel the world. My super-talented fiance and I are attempting to DIY a majority of our massive (~350 guests) "clean & modern, yet romantic, but completely unexpected, with a teeny dash of vintage" wedding, stay within our not-so-massive budget, and somehow get a really luxe (but still fun!) look/feel at the same time. In music terms (since we're both really into music) think Coldplay meets Motown meets Kanye meets Sinatra. I’ve been trying to eat more fruits and veggies, learning to just say, “no!” to desserts and unnecessary sugar/fat (the exception would have to be Yogurtland. Ahhhh, tart yogurt, my love!), eating smaller portions, no snacking (except for fruit and yogurt), and walking-walking-walking whenever I can. I also try to hit up the gym whenever possible and bust through my standard ~ 3-4 miles on the elliptical in 30-35 minutes, and do a little bit of abs and arms/back. I NEVER work out my legs because I have the world’s largest calf muscles and I do NOT want them any bigger than they are. I kid you not, they are SOOO muscular that people always ask me if I played soccer or other such running-sports. And no, I didn’t. So I try to lengthen them with pilates.
A fun tangent (I swear this pertains to this subject): I used to run outside, until I was hit by a car last year. True story. Really. I was running ON THE SIDEWALK, and a woman making a left from the opposite direction hit me. I flew through the air and landed on my back. I smacked my head (I like to think this was why I bombed that one final that quarter…), scraped up my arm, and got a pathetic bruise on my leg. I’ve started to think that I’m indestructible, since I didn’t even break anything, and I’ve gotten worse bruises from walking into my bed. The good thing about this accident is aside from having a cool story to tell, it paid for my wedding dress. Anyways, for this reason, I am no longer allowed to run outside. Hmm… I guess my life is more exciting than I thought.
