When the university started, so did its sport programme. To my own surprise I decided to sign up for some of these courses in the inexplicable hope of actually going there on a regular basis. I really have no idea under what kind of drug influence I actually was at that time. Can I really spare three hours every week (not to forget adding the time to get there)?
OF COURSE I CAN, because I am a freaking lunatic! At the start of a new school/ university year I always think that I can stuff my 24h day until it magically extends to twice the amount of hours. Although it's only week two, I'm already trying to feel a little tense.The problem is that I still don’t know how to organize myself properly and normally everything ends in pure chaos at some point. Usually, I just start sacrificing sleeping hours when I get the feeling that I really need a day with more hours. Dark circles under my eyes are never very prominent (Asians tend to have fabulous botox skin) and why do you think coffee was invented in the first place?
When I gave more thought to the whole issue, a scary question popped up in my head: Is this sudden urge for exercising connected to some subconscious wish to look like Heidi Klum? Hell no! Honestly, I find her extremely ugly and would need a lot of cosmetic surgery, but anyways let’s get back to the topic: no, I don’t want to look like a stick, but wouldn’t mind being a bit fitter as this would have plenty of advantages. For example, when the bus drives away before I manage to get in, it’s still possible for me to catch it if I run two stations further as it turns into a side street, while I can race straight down the street to gaspingly jump into it with a wildly thumping heart.
Another very realistic everyday life scenario would be carrying a crammed backpack around with you 24/7. You need heavy textbooks, folders and writing pads for university (at least I do). So why not prevent possible back pain by training your muscles?
PS.: An elaborate account of my experiences the next time. Stay tuned people!
