  1. RESURRECTION ; Brings a dead ally back to life with 35% health and mana. Cannot be cast when in combat. Let's just say the less said about the year the better. Also let it also be known that Hormone BC Pills suck. Badly. Like side effects up the wazoo badly. And over using your wrists/twanging your shoulder. That sucks too (fun to do though, games + drawing + pole + work ). Currently I'm averaging 2-3 pole classes per week (minus sickness) since I did a soft reset in September offline. Gymnasti-Pole (gymnastics type stuff), Stretch (think yoga with splits work at the end) and usually a class (I bumped myself down to 2/3, was at 4/5 ready to go to 6/7 before needing to lay off the wrist in June/July). There's theraputty thrown in a couple times a week for my hands and chiro visits as well (bout monthly now vs 3x week). GUARDIAN SPIRIT Heals target for 40% of maximum health. Add an extra pole class or strength session each weekI love pole classes. That's the "exercise" (read fun hobby) that gets my blood pumping. However, I've lost progress while I laid off the wrist to let it heal and I was having problems with some moves before since some stuff wasn't strong enough (which is why I put off advancing to 6/7). So I want to either add another class (meh not really unless it's Boot Camp) or do a strength session each week to help. Adding an extra anything over my pole classes has been a challenge before to get consistently sooo.... Baby steps y'all. Baby steps. PAIN SUPPRESSION Reduces all damage taken by a friendly target by 40% for 8 sec. Castable while stunned. Add an extra stretching/yoga session each week that includes some splits workOne of the things I wanted this year was to get my splits. Since I kinda sabotaged myself (BC pills/wrist) I've lost a bit of progress (but not that much). I also need more stretching to help promote healing/reduce stress. So again with the Baby Steps. We'll add one session per week, be it yoga/stretch or roller/ball and splits work at the end. MINDBENDER Creates a Mindbender to attack the target. Caster receives 0.75% mana when the Mindbender attacks. Lasts 20 sec. LOG THAT @!%~ ONCE AND FOR ALL-Sigh- So I hate keeping workout logs. Seriously. Hate. Keeping. Them. But if I want to see progress in the other two quests, it might be best to start keeping a log. So here's the thing. Even if I only write a log in my small book once a week about what I've done, it's better than the last... forever-ish. It's an improvement. So let's do that. Hopefully start with that Gymnasti-Pole warm up tonight... that thing kicks butt. CLARITY - LVL 100 Priest Talents Clarity of Power - Find a place to put a pull up bar or my pole upClarity of Will - Fill the rest of the Moleskine with drawings by Dec 31stClarity of Grace - Homemade Presents / Get them done earlyLife Goals! Gotta have 'em. First two are things I've been meaning to do for awhile, but adulting and blah-ness took over (and I didn't make them priorities). And like last year, I would love to do crafted gifts for my co-workers/buddies. I'm thinking more of the food variety (jalapenos infused tequila anyone?) for this year (with diy beauty stuff for the young teenage cousins). And now it's listed somewhere else than my head so I HAVE to do it. MOTIVATION To feel better, more energetic and stronger. To regain control and not let the crazies affect me. To be ME. The best me EVER.
  2. So, as I said in my introduction (found here) I work part-time as a Loss Prevention Officer. What that means is that I'm licensed by the Province of Alberta to carry handcuffs and work as a security official in plain clothes. Basically, I'm like an undercover cop without any cop powers, weapons, or cool nicknames. But I do get to arrest people, provided I can watch them commit the crime from start to finish, and catch them afterwards without getting myself killed. Hence, I figured I probably should do something about my lack of running endurance, increase my strength a bit so people comply (amazing what nice pecs will do for that), and overall just become better prepared so I don't risk my safety or others safety as much. The plan I'm going with right now is still in the works. I have a talk with a personal trainer coming up, and we will work out a plan that will progress me over this next year. After a year and a half, I will be applying for the Edmonton City Police department, which has very high requirement for officer fitness. By that time, I will be finished my degree, have about 2 years of security/loss prevention experience, and in amazing good shape. I will be keeping the food logs separate, as time is off the essence with posting. I need to keep the actual logs after this very short, so it will cover only my daily workouts. I am starting with 3 days a week, and moving towards 5. The goal is to build a habit of short workouts done consistently every day. The point right now is to make the gym a part of my life, not kill myself. Therefore, the focus is on flexibility, starting cardio endurance, and major lifts with a good degree of fun thrown in the middle. I'll edit this post later with details of the actual plan once it is finished.

  4. Ever since I can remember, I've been told that I could amount to anything and that I would make all my dreams a reality. For many years I believed all that to be true - that I would be everything by just being myself. I set goals, I got excited, I made actions to go after them, then the year passed by. A new year began and I repeated that cycle: set the same goals, get excited, made actions, and time pass by. 2012 was ending and there I was again: goals - excitements - ready to act...then it struck me: I have done nothing. All these years and the goals never change. I keep on giving up half way through. Why? Turns out I’ve been afraid of personal success. I was comfortable in the mediocre zone. I never gave it my all. I gave a 70%. 70% is average – it’s normal. It wasn’t great but it wasn’t horrible, it was enough. Looking back at my life, I gave everything 70%: exercise, relationships, school, hobbies, and, yes, even those goals. I made myself, and others, believe that 70% was my 110. As 2012 began to wrap up, I decided that I was done being afraid of my true potential. So I began to read a year’s worth of emails from a site that was recommended by a fellow CrossFitter: Nerd Fitness. I made the goal to read all those emails – clean out my inbox – by my birthday (Jan. 30). As I read, I was not only accomplishing my task but I was about to start a new life. 2013 began and it was enlightening. I put in the work and I got some goals done. Sure, here and there, I slacked off but I was better. I was giving 85-90%. Life was looking up. Then late July hit, my dog (the best dog that could ever exist for me) got ill. He was just 7 – he was strong, fit, and I was doing better with him (more play, more walks, and started swimming). He got very ill and extremely weak. Surgery was performed and, just like that, I lost my furriest best friend. I was mad and devastated – I imagined him being there right next to me as I accomplished these goals: graduating, getting out of debt, traveling, stepping into a new home, etc. I was in a momentum, I was expecting at least 5 more years out of him. What happened? I had a window of opportunity to go back and give 70% at everything – use sorrow as an excuse to get me back to my comfort zone. But I just stepped back, I focused, I breathed…and I realized that my dog taught me more that I thought. He was sick but always greeted me with a wag of his nub – he was happy every day. At that moment I found my 110%. I am focusing on my dog’s overall awesomeness as a motivator to do the same. Since August 2013, I’ve been on a hunt to accomplish all my goals in memory of my best 4-legged friend. I will admit that I rather have him here but I know I can’t. So I push through and the feeling is quite kick ass. I will not have my dog next to me as I do all this, but I will have him to thank for me getting though these goals. As of last week (mid November 2013), I was officially debt free (one of my main goals). Now it is time to get this transformation and I will log it here along the way. =)
  5. A daily battle log. General Goals (more specific goals as I continue on): Transition to 80-90% paleo in the coming weeksWorkout consistently 6 days a week (one of those days being a lighter 'recovery' day) Get to 130lbs (-50lbs, starting weight is 180lbs)Edited 2/13/13 Now that I've gotten into this with a little more I understand what is meant by setting really specific non-weight goals (although I think a generalized ballpark weight goal is still a good thing to have) so as of today here are my revised goals: Strict Paleo diet but with the allowance of 1-2 non-paleo items each week (like ex: sushi with rice vs. sashimi only, or a beer/glass of wine with friends - these would be sort of treat items and not something that has to happen every week either, only if I feel like it)Follow Bodyweight Brigade workouts 3x week through all the ranksTake brisk walks or runs on the days in between & 1 complete rest dayFinally clean out and unclutter my house... this is a huge project for me that might span many months...Kitchen: throw out expired canned goods, remove anything in the kitchen that doesn't relate to food or the preparation there ofKid's room: finish child proofing the room, finish putting things in storage, move his toys into his room, find a dresser for him, put all his clothes awayMy room: Sort and donate all clothes that don't fit or I don't wear (same for husband) (refuse to buy any more of this size also), Fold and put away clothes (find another dresser if need be)Bathrooms: Sort and dispose of old toiletries/makeup/etcLiving area: make sure office stuff is in the designated office "area", Sort and burn old documents that are sensitive but no longer necessary to keepRe-paint each room after organizing is complete
