Hey all i'm new to the board I found my way here after reading the dark side of Disney book. I'm 26 and from the UK and will be embarking on a solo trip in October for Epcot's 30th. I look forward to talking to you guys on here

I work at a year round school here in Florida and we start in July after the 4th. We go for eight weeks then have 3 weeks off. During christmas we get two and a half weeks off, then in March we get another 3 weeks off. For the summer we get 4 1/2 weeks off. I love the schedule it is the best. Gives me a lot of time throughout the year for Disney.

Where in FL do you live for year round school?

Tonight's my turn to host some friends at stately Brocktoon Manor. Basically we just grill some food stuffs, drink plenty of alcohol products, and watch some blu-rays. Nothing groundbreaking, but it's a fun time. Way too hot to be outside today though ...

Just watched GOON - great hockey flick! Definatley deserves it's R rating, but if you enjoy underdog type sports movies, it's one of the better I've seen in a long time.

Hope everyone else is relaxing and recharging over the weekend

That would be awesome, but I dont think I would make it long enought to enjoy it. Sure sounds nice though. all the places around here close up at midnight so if I do go out I'm home around that time anyhow.

Anyone else have to really kick themselves in the butt to get out and exercise? I've been really inconsistent with it most of my adult life. If you do work out what do you do? I'm back on the workout wagon again and started by walking 2 1/2 miles on the bike trail not too far from my house on Sat. Sun. was a little sore and only did 2 miles. Today I'm taking off. My son and I have to pack our 2 cars and bring him back to Boston. He starts a Northeastern co-op job from tomorrow till the end of Dec. No classes till Jan. He's excited. I'll miss him but am so happy for him. He's very happy with life in Boston.

Anyway, this started out to be about workouts. I also have a treadmill so I'll get back on that when the weather is bad. I also have some Biggest Loser videos that aren't bad and I love Dance, Dance Revolution. When my son and friends were big into the game I bought metal dance pads almost like what the arcades have. It's fun for a good sweat without really feeling like a workout. Tomorrow I'm off from work and will be hitting the trail again. Oh and I do have a bike. I may try to stuff that in my car and cycle instead of walk.

Finding the motivation to workout is one of the hardest things for alot of people. I can only say what worked for me, and everyone is different but I set a goal for myself. I signed up for a half marathon at Disney when I had never run further than the street corner for the school bus in my life! Putting out all that money and also not being the kind of person to let failure get in my way I found I ran several times a week for like 6 months. I would say find something to work for. I dont think just getting in shape is a good goal at least for me it wasn't. I had to set a bigger goal and the getting in shape happened along the way.

I use to dislike working out very much, until one day someone told me how much more you can eat if you workout. I started about 2 years ago. I love it now, when I don't go to the gym I miss it! I try to get there every night after work, I usually get there about four nights a week. I pack my gym bag and put it in the trunk of my car, once I am done with work I head to the gym. I usually do 30-40 mins on the elliptical. I love the fact that I can sweat and think and nobody bothers me. I put on my earphones and listen to music.

I think the most important thing is make it a priority and find something you enjoy. I tried running, but found it wasn't for me and it never will be. It really is amazing how great you feel after and you really can eat and drink more, which is very very important since i LOVE both .

Do 12oz curls count?

I think it counts!! I know my wine bottle gets very heavy!


I took a little break from packing for my trip to Europe in a couple of days....I had to see what has been happening on the SSC. I hope everyone has a great Sunday!

Went to see Magic Mike last night with a couple of friends. The only redeeming factor was Channing Tatum.

Today I'm just sitting around the house and staying out of the heat.

You say that as if I had any other reason for going to see it....

True...that's really the ONLY reason to see it!

HaHa!! Only if you do them with both arms to keep it even!

I would like to be a couple sizes smaller. I know I feel much better when I feel that I look better. So that's my motivation right now. Just need to stick with it and have it become routine.

I used to run track in HS but never loved running long distances. I was a sprinter so I doubt the running thing will work for me either. I do like walking on the trail though. It's really pretty. Alot of it is very woodsy. It runs along what was the old Putnam Railroad line into NYC.
Eating and drinking more! Now that's motivation! I also love to do both! Gee, guess that's how I packed on the extra pounds

I think it counts!! I know my wine bottle gets very heavy!

Yeah wine bottle lifts! That sounds like a good one. I think you have to use the big bottles for that!

Have a great trip!
