ENTERTAINMENT - Total Divas

I've been recently introduced to WWE Total Divas professional wrestler, Eva Marie (#allredeverything) and she is absolutely stunning!

Not only does she carry the reputation of these fiery locks, but her T.V personality blaze tension between her and the prevailing WWE wrestling champions, The Bella Twins (#briemode #fearlessnicki)

These ladies are what girl power is all about! Check them out when you can, and surely you'll be hitting the gym right after ... :)

TRAVEL - 2014 ALREADY!

Hey guys,

Happy New Year!!! May 2014 be filled with happiness, love and peace! :)

It's great to know that you're now starting off with a fresh new year! U can officially say, "STARTING IN 2014, I..."

What is it that you would like to accomplish this year? Or at all?

START!

I know that my resolution would have to be something to do with my health and fitness.

But for many people it would be to travel overseas, visit newer places, and appreciate the new culture.

I'm positive that none of you will be staying home this year. So what places would you like to visit in 2014????

LET ME KNOW... It could give me ideas :)

Thanks guys.

Before we move on, I'd like to do a little memorabilia for you... To help you realise how long we've actually been alive for! Especially those born in the 80-90's.

This won't be a normal one.

I've spent my whole life revolving around Disney. As a matter of fact, who hasn't?!? That is why I thought it'd be cool to put together some stages of "CAN YOU BELIEVE?"

Enjoy!! :)

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT...

1. it's been 19 years since the Lion King?

2. it's been 1 decade since Lizzie McGuire?

3. it's been 64 years since the one and only Disney princess, Cinderella?

4. it's been 1.9 decades since Toy Story?

5. it's been 36 years since The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh?

6. it's been 36 years since the Star Wars was first released?

HEALTH - 5 Steps AFTER Xmas!

I'm sure a bunch of you had a wonderful CHRISTMAS! Part of the magical celebration is the feast! Which is incredible at the time buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut not so much after!

You want to GET BACK INTO SHAPE! GET HEALTHY! GET FIT!

Here's FIVE STEPS on how to do it! :)

1. Finish up those Xmas nuts left on the table! They have protein in them that you need for energy packed with nutrients good for balancing the body fat!

2. After you get home from work, or even using those 10 minutes of free time (if that doesn't exist for you, make the time!!!), do 20 sit-ups, 3 times! It'll burn off that muffin-top!

3. Leg lifts! Workin your legs, as well as your abs u need that multifunctional exercise.

4. Eat 4-5 servings of veggies or fruits! Healthy alternative from those holiday cookies, it'll get you full before you crave those treats! Have one or two as a treat afterwards ;)

5. Don't forget your arms! Work them out by shovelling!! If you don't have snow, well carry those gifts over your head and do 20 squats, 3 times! ;)

That's it guys! IF YOU DO THIS EVERYDAY FOR AT LEAST A MONTH, you will not only see a difference, but you'll FEEL A difference too!

The best part: IT'S DO-ABLE! :)

UPDATE ON LIFE - My Recovery

Hi guys,

QUICK REVIEW:

As some of you may know, March 2013 I tore one of the major ligaments in the knee (ACL) while playing rugby!

It was the first game of the season and first minute of the game. Unfortunately, the tackle got ugly and I tore it! Left the feild, had to stop playing for the rest of the season until I was able to have the surgery only 3 months later (thanks to my coach and Dad).

All summer, I was recovering from the surgery. Resting it, being extra aware of how I move it, and just being 100% careful to not re-injure anything in my leg.

Rehab was the way to go in order to get me back in shape for this upcoming season March 2014.

NOW:

I've stopped doing physiotherapy at the clinics, and started working out on my own!

Strengthening the muscles in my legs are my top priority when it comes to my health and fitness. I lost a lot of it due to the surgery, and recovery process (unable to run).

Still unsure if I will be 100% ready to play again, I won't stop exercising! Whether or not I go back to playing, this whole experience changed me!

It made me realise how much support I really have, the many people who I'm thankfully blessed to know, and the confidence and hope that is gained during one of the lowest times in my life.

It may be hard to understand this when I say, I'm glad I was able to experience this. IT CHANGED ME. RUGBY CHANGED ME.

The way that I look at life now, is totally different from March 2013 - the day that it happened. Words cannot express the many great things that compensate for this bump in the road.

So THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO WAS WITH ME IN THIS JOURNEY TO SELF DISCOVERY AND RECOVERY. I TRULY APPRECIATE THE SUPPORT AND AM OVERJOYED THAT I WAS ABLE TO GO THROUGH IT WITH YOU.

:) <3

IF YOU'RE A GIRL maybe this song can help you anticipate father-boyfriend chemistry, and make a better impression when they first meet... First impressions GOTTA BE SPOT ON LADIES!!! lol.

ENJOY! :) YOU WILL LOVE THIS SONG!
