In. Love!

I just need to let everyone in on some things that I am in love with right now!  The other day I created quite the buzz on my Facebook (and my moms) about this first item.....the Salted Caramel Mocha from Starbucks!  I was so weary at first to try this because of the whole 'salt' thing, but now, I think I'm addicted!  I'm definitely going to modify a recipe of mine to make this deliciousness into a wonderful CUPCAKE!!  Who's tried this drink?  Did you love it?!

Next is a song by Alexandra Stan called "Mr. Saxobeat".  Have you heard it?!  I freaking love the song for some reason.  I love having the windows down, turnin' up the volume, and kind of shouting to the song!  Haha hopefully no one else has heard me :P

 

 

One of my new favorite shows?  Revenge!!  Oh my gosh I love it!  It's so juicy, suspenseful, witty, and unique.  If you haven't began watching it, I suggest starting from the beginning :)

 OK right now, I am also in love with a high school classmates' service project she is trying to put into motion.  If she is voted as Miss UNC, she plans to open a store on her campus where students, faculty, and staff will be able to purchase items, donate money, etc. for troops who are overseas.  How awesome is that?!  For more information on this you can view the Facebook page here.  I have always wanted to do something similar to what she is hoping to do, but I don't have the necessary means!  I'm not part of a sorority or any large club on my campus...I'm in the SCUBA club (which IS awesome by the way).  Since ECU has both the Army and Air Force ROTC programs, I think an idea similar to my classmates' would be a hit.  I should do some research and get into contact with some people here on campus!  I wish I had a larger 'fan base' so that I could encourage others who attend UNC to go vote for her!

Alright enough with a handful of my favorites right now, let's get to the workout!!  First, let me just say that my chest is still incredibly sore after Monday's workout that I posted!  Today was shoulders though.  After weight training, I did a few Ab exercises (I usually just do random things that come to mind) and then I did some cardio on the Arc machine-thing.  My knees are so awful though.  That machine provides a very low impact form of cardio with little knee movements, but my knees still hurt.  I seriously need to go see my orthopedist.  Here is my shoulder workout for today-

Seated Dumbbell Press

Standing Dumbbell Straight Arm Raise

Side Lateral Raise
Seated Bent-over Rear Delt Raise

Yes, only 4 exercises, but your shoulders will be killing you by the end! (or they should be!)  Again, I did 3 sets of 12-15 of each.  If y'all want, I will try to post pictures of the beginning and end of each move.  Just lemme know!
