Double Trouble
June 9, 2009
Ah, how wonderful it is to be able to say it: I am one quarter of the way through my challenge! And a challenge it has been, in so many such different ways than I ever expected. Sure, I knew that it would be physically demanding, but I never thought of all of the other challenges, even the ones as small as just waking up to an alarm clock to make it to class. And so I adapt to the difficulties and overcome them. What an empowering feeling!
And to contrast said empowerment is doubt. Due to some unfortunate circumstances (a class so full I was turned away and pre-existing plans) I will have to due two doubles before the end of the month. Talk about double trouble. Before last monday, I’d never so much as exceeded two classes in two days, let alone two classes in one day! Pubali offered me the luxury of an extra day, but I cannot do that. I have worked too hard, sweated too much, and come too far to do a “fake 30 day challenge.” And so now, the challenge is when to do a double. When will I have the strength? When will I have the time? Hopefully, tomorrow.
See you at the finish line,
Amelia
PS: How crazy is it that in three more classes, I will be one-third of the way there?!
