Cleaning and an Impromptu Date

What up party people??? How's Tuesday treatin' you so far? Still keeping up with those New Year's resolutions? :) I have basically done a whole lot of nothing today. But hey, I'm on vacation, right?? And, yes, I am definitely milking this whole "winter break" thing for all it's worth! My days of being lazy and having no obligations are limited, so I have to live them up! At least that's my thinking behind my slothfulness, hehe.

Today started out very normally, with a bright and early 10:30am gym session. I have been loving this whole sleep-in-and-just-go-to-the-gym-when-I-wake-up thing. I know my days of doing this are also numbered...sad! Back to they gym. I have a wonderfully cardio-filled gym sesh today. At first I wanted to do some weights, since I'm not sore from 30 Day Shred anymore, but I was just really feelin' the cardio! I was also happy to see that the gym was not nearly as crowded as yesterday, and I could pretty much have my pick of cardio equipment. I ellipticaled for 45 minutes while reading an old issue of Fitness magazine, then moved to the treadmill for 45 minutes of incline walking and 15 minutes of running while watching Ellen. I absolutely adore Ellen DeGeneres and think she is the greatest thing since hummus sliced bread. I think I've started to center my workouts around when Ellen is on...but what can I say? She makes the time fly by! I'm also pretty sure I laughed out loud at least four times while watching her...oops! :)

Anywho, after the 'mill, I got my weight liftin' on with a little armage and leggage. I stretched, did a few ab moves, and then biked to stretch my legs out while reading more of my magazine. When I came home all I could think of was FOOD so I showered as fast as possible and got some food in mah belly! I also sported these babies:

 Holla at the new leggings!! These are so dang comfortable! I can't wait to try them out on a run! I always find myself with the winter workout attire dilemma--leggings always fall down while running and sweatpants are bulky and uncomfortable. So what to wear during the chilly months?? These definitely have potential, though. And they make great lazy attire, too! And no, I am not a Michigan State fan...I just liked the colors of that sweatshirt.

I blog stalked a little before deciding it was time to tackle this:

EEEKKKK MESSY!!

This would be the pile of college/Christmas presents/birthday presents/clothes/randomness that has been taking over my room for the past...oh...three week? I know, embarrassing, right? I also couldn't really maneuver around my room, so it was time for a cleaning! After a hour or so of throwing out old papers, taking the tags off of presents, and finding random pencils everywhere the pile turned into this:

Clean! Mostly...

Much better! Please excuse all the randomness in that pictures...my room has become somewhat of a stockpile since I started college. But it's much more livable now! Cleaning also made me realize how close school really is. Classes start a week from tomorrow!!! Eeeeek! So not ready! At least I got a jump start on sorting through my old binders today. I probably still won't be prepared to go back, but such is life.

Now I am getting ready for a surprise date with the boyfran! He was supposed to work until 9 tonight, but he texted me around 2 and informed me that he only had to work until 6 now!!! Hooray! We're gonna do the whole dinner and a movie shindig. And since you haven't seen enough pictures of me already, here's what I'm donning anoche:

Welp, I better run if I don't want to keep Toddly waiting!! Ciao for now!
