Entry 1 - 13.05.2018.

SO I have been thinking about opening a blog where I post as I would write in a diary. I have tried having a diary several times during the past 10 years, but I am not big on continuity... just terrible at it to be honest.
But this time I will try to be more continuous about the blog. To start off, I will introduce myself. My name is Kiki and I am currently 21 years old. I have been in a serious relationship with the most adorable man I have ever met in the past 2 years, and he is the reason I turned back to writing... because he moved away again.

We have started out as a long distance couple in 2016, because he was playing for a Swiss team in Davos, and we lived like that for 1 year, but then he moved home to Hungary and we were no longer in long distance. And I kind of grew used to having him around. It was comfortable, and I think I forgot to appreciate the time we had. A couple weeks ago, he got a contract for another Swiss hockey team in La Chaux-de-Fonds. Now he is 1000kms away and I can no longer spend time with him on the daily basis... it kind of taken its toll on me, to be entirely honest with you.
On the day he left I worked and on my way home, it started pouring and I couldn't decide if the skies were mourning with me or pissing on my already bad day. Then and there in the bus stop for bus 91, I decided to write the blog, and also make minor changes to my life.

For one, I will be trying to squeeze in 1 run every week, yoga every morning and evening, and training once a week. I need to be more active because in the past 1 and a half years I have gained over 35 pounds (about 15-16kgs) and I need to change that. Especially because I do not feel good in my skin anymore. I have never been skinny, but I looked alright. Now, I feel ashamed to put on a bikini.

Second, I will save up money. I have to go visit my boyfriend from something. And I also want to travel around Europe on the weeks when I won't have college from September.

By the way, college. I used to be a Biology major for a half year and I left it. I left it, because it made me feel awful and simply I did not want to study in that field. I want to be and english major, so I reapplied in February and I will get the news if I was accepted or no in August. I will be so happy if they accept my application. I have given Biology a chance, like my father wanted - not really, he wanted me to be in medicine, but I was just not up for that (for several reasons) - but I got to go on a path that I chose for myself, because I want to be happy. I want to love my job, and I want to be a good influence for my kids in the future. Like a positive person, who won't pressure them to go on fields they are not interested in. There are only so many doctors the world needs, and I want to be the parent that tells her kids that they can be anything they like, because nobody HAS TO BE a doctor, lawyer, judge, architect etc.

Right now I work as a barista, making pretty flowers in the micro-foam. It pays alright, but if I was living in a rented apartment I would probably starve to death. So now that I have introduced myself, it is time to change clothes, and go for the run I have talked about above. See you in the next entry.

I don't usually use my blog to rant, not in here, not in my personal notes. But today, after a 10 hour shift at the cafĂ©, I just can't.... Lately I have been so annoyed by instagram stars. I follow several yoga persons and some influencers  like Amanda Cerny. So the reason why I have been annoyed with almost all is because they post stuff in their stories about how exhausted  they are after literally sleeping normally and only doing 1 workout for posting purposes and to make sure they keep themselves in shape. They are exhausted. And here I am, working 10-12 hour shifts as a waitress, then spending 1,5 hours in the yoga studio, exercising. And even I don't dare to say I am exhausted because I am CONSIDERATE towards people like nurses who are working 36-72 hour shifts at hospitals and don't have the energy to clean their house let alone go to do yoga. But hey, Jessica Olie needs to sleep more because all these travels have been terrible  on her skin... Well, I do...

Entry 2 - 14.05.2018.

So today after work I watched Bridget Jone's Baby, and gotta say I was more disappointed by the outcome than I should have been. To me this was badly written. I was rooting for Jack, because if he had been the father, then the message of the movie would have been that even if you are stuck on an old love, you can still find someone new and start over, have a clean slate and one day you would meet a person who would stick around for your crazy even if you are in a mess like Bridget. I mean let's face it, how many men would have stuck around a one night stand if they figure out they are pregnant. Also, when they might not be the only potential father. In my view, Jack really fell for Bridget, but she just chased a man who has broken her heart repeatedly and with whom her relationships never really worked out. Maybe it is just me, but to me Jack would have been the obvious choice. But she was persistent and stuck with what she knew, instead of taking a chance for a life where ...

Entry 5 - 11.06.2018

I have been going to yoga every day in the past 4 days. Today is my day off, so I decided to go in the city and hunt down a new yoga mat. It is Monday, and I don't have a choice but take a break since the studio I go to only has bikram yoga today and I did it yesterday and you aren't supposed to be doing bikram a lot. It is pretty heavy on the heart. So I hunt down the new mat, do some stretching at home and call it a day. But who knows, I might go anyway. I have until 7 pm to decide, since the last class starts at 7.30. I thought that my only way to get back into shape was going training and running but honestly, I despise all those things. I like yoga and dancing. Both of those things are disgustingly expensive here in Budapest. But I committed since I do spend that kind of money on clothes all the time... yes. ALL THE FRIGGIN' TIME....... Lately I have made some minor changes to my life. I like to believe that those changes are positive and worthy of an adult woman...
