Hiking!

Today was a very good day. I woke up earlier than my usual time (which I like) and attempted to start cleaning my room.  I started off with some loads of laundry then my friend decided to invite me to go hiking last minute. Room v.s. Hiking....Guess who won lol! Although my room needs some serious TLC! Any who, we set off, and mind you this is my first time hiking since like 2003 or so. I had a lot stored in for me when we got there. The hills are super steep and I went up it 3 times. I did it non-stop on the third time, I was very proud of myself. :-D. My friends decided to jog the rest and I would have if my body was use to that type of degree. Not yet, I didn't want to push my body too much seeing as I almost hurled on the first walk up. So I went on my way and didn't realize the trail was longer than I thought but my smart butt went around again to the hill causing me to go up it a third time lol. Which I didn't mind but I wasn't sure where to go for the actual 4 mile trial. I finally found it after I reached the top again and just followed all the people that were on it and hoped for the best. Since I had my music I left into my own world and kept on walking. I remembered that my friend asked me to hold her phone so they can call me when they were done. I checked it but soon realized it ran out of battery. Jut my luck eh -_- lol. So I just kept walking until I hit the trial from where the car was parked. Then I see a park ranger and low and behold it's my friends in there with him. They came to find me because they thought I was injured, kidnapped, or I that I passed out and they couldn't get a hold of me. One of the girls even wrote down a guys license plate because he looked suspicious haha. I told them that I thought they were still walking so I kept making numerous subtle stops to check if they were around which is why it took me longer. Turns out they had been done an hour ago -__-. My life defined.... Lol, but we all finally made it to the car safely and left in painful muscles. Now I'm just home relaxing from the hike and now a little too sore to fold my clothes >.<. Lol, well there's always tomorrow. Goodnight folks. :}

Table Turning

Sorry I haven't written anything lately. Decided to hibernate for my last weekend of freedom lol. This weekend has been very fun, lazy, and kickback.  Sadly, some of my workouts have hibernated as well. You know how the first couple of weeks are hard right? Well yeah, trust me I'll be kicking my toosh into high gear again. I've realized though that friends definitely know how to take the pain away and help you forget life for a little while. Today I have finally set foot in the restaurant I applied for a couple of months back. Since it's a new restaurant they're still doing a lot of work. I got my uniform (pic up top) except the shoes since mines were ordered late. It's my first time ever working at a restaurant so I'm both nervous and excited! I'll tell ya, it's gonna feel crazy weird leaving the retail life and going into the food and beverage area. Hopefully I'm able to get accustomed to it. I'm gonna be getting SUPER busy again since the semester's coming up and I'll be having full time work. Unfortunately I won't be on here much often but I'll try to keep you guys updated as much as possible. Thank you for reading :}.

P.S. Fun Fact: My mom was a waitress and was pretty bad at it. Eeep! 0_o lol.

It's Given.

 Awesome news today. I emailed my recruiter and he says he's willing to wait for me to find the money for the initial deposit. I explained my situation and he says keep working at it :}}. I've got some potential sponsors in line so I'm praying and hoping for the best! I'm glad he's patient with me. I've had a really good day yesterday and today. My friends and I are just chillin' watching "Once Upon A Time",  and on our laptops. Sleep has been our main priority lol. That's it for right now. Check in later. Have a good one.

Answer back.

So today is almost over. I woke up at noon! All bad lol. I am tired  even more than what I should be. I missed my workout, but thankfully I'm walking to my friends house which is far so whatever I consumed today can be burnt off in no time. I made myself "brunch" consisting of egg whites (2), salsa, and almost every veggie you can find in a garden hehe. I also made these avocado fries made with bread crumbs I saw in a health magazine. They're perfect for when you want something fried but healthy. Let's just say I wanted something fried bad! Lol. Any who, I captured photos of how it all looked :}. Not only that but I made a detox health smoothie to clean everything out. It consists of garlic(...Eww!), green apple, spicy pepper,  spinach, orange, dash of honey, bell pepper,  ice & water. Surprisingly it's pretty good :}. Now I am getting ready and heading out to my friends house for a dinner party. Oh boy! Let's hope I can keep on track today! I'm thinking of maybe doing weekly weigh-ins..Hmm I'm not sure yet on that one. Today I'm suppose to call my recruiter for the pageant and I'm afraid because I wasn't able to come up with the deposit money in time. :{. I don't know what I should tell him... Any suggestions? Hit me up with a comment.

No? Yes?...No. Maybe?

Before it gets too late. Here's an update on how my day went. So Alexsia and I went on our bajillionth hunt for sponsors today lol. We unfortunately got mostly no's but some gave us a little bit more hope. They told us to call their corporate offices so we'll see how that goes tomorrow since our hunt ended kind of late today and most corporate offices are closed by 5:00pm. Thankfully we met up with another good friend of ours that helped us around. Tomorrow the calling begins and as usual I'm so nervous. Also I attempted to ask my family for help and they said they can only try which I'm still grateful for. I just hate asking for assistance from family only because they do it too much. But I mean this is for a good cause and I wouldn't ask for it if I didn't want it right? Anywho, I am now at my home resting up and watching 'Misfits' (new favorite show tehe ^_^) Gotta get prepared for tomorrow. Also, here's a quick pic of how today went. All smiles you can tell we were doing alright. Good vibes. :}

Time running out

I'm getting very anxious now. I haven't gotten any sponsors yet and I need an answer for my representative  by tomorrow. What to do? What to do?...Going on some more hunts today hopefully luck and blessings are on my side.

Today has been an absolute tiring day since Alexsia and I were up since 5 in the morning working on letters, pages and blogs. Safe to say, we SLEPT IN. Breakfast was skipped due to that. So we had lunch consisting of salmon and oatmeal with yogurt. Pretty good I may say. Alexsia and I are now working on our letters more and cards with our info to give out to potential sponsors. Pray for us please.

Sponsor Hunting...Delayed

Sorry I wasn't able to get on earlier today. Got a bit distracted. Today has been pretty wonderful to me. I woke up; meditated, prayed, and had a very beautiful breakfast consisting of oatmeal with a dash of honey, egg whites with green and red veggies, a banana, a slice of toast, a cup of coffee, and a little piece of pan dulce (failed there). But I was able to burn all of that off while walking all the way from my house to my friends house in Santa Ana. Mind you I'm a city away lol. It was a really great exercise but my legs are killing me now! I finally made it to my friends house only to find out plans were unfortunately changed due to my friends car needing work. So we were unable to go sponsor hunting, but that's alright because we're going tomorrow. My friend (Alexsia) and I are still stressing out because we're learning how hard it is to compete in these pageants. It's a killer! And getting sponsors is worse! We're praying for tomorrow and I hope we have your prayers and blessings too. =^_^=. It is now night time here and I'm hanging out with friends trying to ease the stress a little bit. I hope you all have a wonderful night and God bless. :)

Hard Work, Confused Mind

Getting on this ride of getting sponsored is no joke. It takes a lot of guts and determination. My friend Alexsia and I (on the same boat ride) are a bit boggled as to where to start off. We're thinking of starting off at malls then other local areas. Maybe boutiques? There's just so much to think about and the guy I talked to wants me to call him by this Friday with an answer if I'm completely on board. Uhhh....yeah not much time man. I'm kind of freaking out. Now I got a 2 job offers in the last week and I need to take them. I was hoping I can save up from them but I don't know exactly when the initial deposit is due. I don't think they'll be able to wait for me to give the deposit. Then on top of that I need to start taking better care of my health for the pageant but this stress isn't helping out the cause. I'm trying to be content as possible. STRESS!!!

Pageant Moves

So...I entered a beauty pageant. My first thought was, "What the heck are you doing Jazzy?!" Never in my entire life would I have thought to do this. I went on the interview in Beverly Hills and got some pretty good advice. They chose me! Me to represent. Of course I have to make some healthy life changes because going into a pageant overweight may not get you too far. I did however tell the guy I don't want to be super skinny because I love my curves, and the best thing he said to me was, "Do it for myself not anybody else". Even if I don't win the title or go very far I still have a lot of good stuff to gain like a healthy future. Now I haven't fully signed on because pricing is a bit high so I'm currently trying to get sponsored in which I'm freaking out because I've never done this type of thing before. I'm looking up several tips and praying for the best but first I have to try my family. I wish I kept in contact with them more...Just gotta keep praying for the very best!
