Three Things Thursday-What I Hate About Me

Well hello there!  Look who's finally back on Thursday!  Yep, it's ME!  Although today I am tired and sore and want nothing more than to curl up under my desk and take a little snooze, the guilt of skipping yet another Thursday blog will eat at me like a dog gnawing away on his favorite bone.  So, here I am, although originality is not really with me today...

This edition of Three Things Thursday details a few things I don't really like about myself; things I wish I had the ability to change or would like to work on.  Soooo here we go:

1) I wish I could enjoy working out more.  I just started hitting the gym again this week, and I decided to start off somewhat easy, doing intervals of walking and running on the treadmill for a half an hour, loosely using the Couch to 5K program as a guide.  God, I hate every freaking minute of it.  I know some people love running, love working out, love the feel of those endorphins kicking in through their system, but I am SO NOT ONE OF THEM.  Plus, I sweat like a dude.  It's not hot.  At all.

2) I wish I was more adventurous when it comes to food.  I'm not against trying new things, really, I just feel like I don't often get the chance.  And when I find something I love at a certain restaurant, I'm not gonna lie, I do end up ordering that same dish pretty much every time.  For years I turned my nose up to the idea of sushi, and when I finally broke down and tried it- LOVED IT.  Same thing with Thai food. I was always afraid it'd be way too spicy or something, but pad Thai is one of my favorite things in the world now.  So, I would like to get some more opportunities to try different things.  As long as it's not super spicy, doesn't have nuts (allergic to most of them), or onions, or peppers, or anything creepy & slimy.  Uhhh...

3) I wish I could magically grow new hair.  Yes, this is a shallow one, kids.  I have the. worst. hair. ever.  Just ask my stylist (who is somewhat of a miracle worker).  She probably cringes every time I make an appointment.  My hair is frizzy and oddly wavy and just...ugly.  Thanks to some amazing products and the best flat iron ever, I manage to get by.  Every so often I let my hair air dry just to see if it's getting any better in its natural state, now that it's getting longer.  Yea...it's not. 

Sadly, I could probably think of a lot more to add to this list.  Like getting over my shyness and having panic attacks when I have to talk in front of a group.  Like being wildly envious of talented writers and wishing I could steal their words as my own.  Like not knowing when to say NO when it comes to shopping or making plans when I know I'm broke as a joke. 

But anyway.  Hope everyone has a great weekend!
