It's a Lasting Love #3

If I could marry one celebrity it would be Paul Wesley. I always thought the love began when I watched the first episode of the Vampire Diaries all those years ago but no, his appearance in 8 Simple Rules was what set this love in motion. My 16th birthday cake actually had a photo of him on (I have never realised how weird I sound until writing all about this obsession) so when 16 year old me met him at a Vampire Diaries convention I couldn't believe it and I couldn't stop crying. No joke, I cried every time he spoke to me and when I managed to get a hug the tears streamed. Thankfully, I played it cool until he wasn't around and then let my emotions ruin me. Last year I met him again, two years older I thought I would be fine and this encounter would be different. I left our photo op crying, thankfully played it cool once again, I don't know what happens to me. Maybe it's being overly excited, nervous and having to cope with the pressure of actually winning my photo op last year that changes me completely. Anyway, Paul Wesley needed to make an appearance on my blog; the love needed to be documented and what better way than part of my lasting love series. Hopefully I'll meet him again because there will be no bigger confidence boast on Earth that can match him winking at you *insert all the love / crying emojis here*. 

Weight loss motivation

This year I have really improved the amount of fitness in my life; starting in January I used the app called 'Seven' and did a 7 minute circuit everyday for 7 months. I was surprised how motivated I stayed although once completing the seven month goal I decided that I would repeat it again. Second time round my motivation seemed to have dropped dramatically, I felt that the excitement of reaching the goals had faded and needed to look for something else to do. Summer was over and I decided to have a go at the '30 day squat challenge'. I had heard a lot about this app and with the dream of having that Beyonce and Kardashian behind I began with JLo's 'Booty' playing on repeat (a bit much I know). With my legs turning less and less to jelly after each day I felt as though improvements were being made; until I reached day 18 where I need to do 125. A mix of not being bothered and tiredness resulted in my never achieving those 125 squats and finishing the challenge. I have decided that I need to start incorporating some serious fitness in my life and plan on joining the gym in January; from now till then I have created this collection of images showing the beautiful Shailene Woodley and my favourite celebrity of them all Miss Jennifer Lawrence to keep me motivated. I am just going to look at these images everyday and remember the goals that I will set for myself and the body I want to achieve. Wish me luck.
