Seventh post

I have more exercise in than the footage shows. I will probably do an entire workout the way it is supposed to be (both A and B days), and then I will do a hike with a go pro on me, and maybe do a run with a go pro, too--then I'll have enough footage for an hour long video. Hope I can figure out how to edit videos.
I really am starting to think I should have chosen to learn to play a song on the piano or the guitar instead of choosing this project idea, but now it is definitely too late :(

OK, so I was having basically daily hikes with my mom, then the weekend came and my stepfather was home all day and my mom started spending more time with him because he is at work every week day from about 4 AM for about twelve hours and then takes a bath and she only really sees him at dinner time until they fall asleep. So on weekends, they use that time to get together and we weren't able to take a walk for the weekend, then we got used to not taking walks. Then my cat died and they weren't even downstairs in the common areas, so I basically did not see my parents for days. I could have gone out and exercised by myself, but I don't like being outside alone and walking many miles away from my home without my parents checking up on me at all times. I could get abducted at any moment because there are not many people outside who could be witnesses. Now, they still in a mourning state and I have my AP exam soon, so we have not been able to coordinate a walk that takes us 2-3 hours plus showering.

So what have I achieved? 
I believe that my weight and measures have lowered. My weight is close to the same starting weight, but still less than where I started.
I have some more footage than before, so I am getting closer to reaching an hour worth of edited footage.

I am getting closer and closer to an hour of edited footage :) (By "edited footage", I mean that I have roughly trimmed my videos to include important events or a gist of what happened. For example, when I was running for about half an hour straight on a treadmill, I thought it would be too boring to watch for a long time, so I only included a few seconds.) I have about a total of 45 minutes worth of this "edited footage". Most of it are Just Dance songs, but that is what I recorded the most of. Also, I had my mom film some videos of our hikes so I also have that. Some videos were too long or I did not like them too much, so I only had enough of the song so that you can see the score (which shows that I was dancing for the entire song) and hear the lyrics when the title is sung. Below is a picture of me running (progress! :D):

What's up? I got an idea: So, what if I read articles and actively learned psychology from online sources. Then, I'd ultimately have psych sessions with different people for about what would equal a week of 20 time. I'd film the video and then blur their faces and modify their voices--to stay anonymous, of course. Or I could have them wear masks. I was inspired by Mark's idea to analyze Robbie. This lighted up my interest in psychology back up. I have been interested in psychology for a while, but because I know it doesn't pay that much, I have decided not to follow this career choice. Instead, I can pursue psychology as a hobby. This way, I can focus on following a career choice which actually pays plenty of money, so that I am well off, but still have the knowledge that comes with learning it. I am pretty set in my decision, but if I must change it, I'd maybe do a blog of myself in a vegan diet. And record how the diet has affected me playing sports and i...

Fifth Day

What did I accomplish this week?  Just about nothing. Last night, I did a rushed "workout". I wouldn't even call that a workout. I did a set of bench presses, 70 crunches in one go, and a few pushups (less than half of the first set), 1 set of curls, and a set of squats, plus a few other without the vest to check my technique. What am I working on right now? Finishing work as soon as I can so that I can have more time to actually exercise and to be with my family. Honestly, right now, I'm trying to stay on weight solely on my diet. What do I plan to do next? I plan on filming myself more while working out, so that I may have enough footage for the end video. Picture of progress: (This is me in the middle of a walk with my mom. I made a stop at the trail where a river can be found and had my mom film me. The video of me climbing up is added in the video.)
