First Car - 1993

I was looking at a slideshow of people and their first cars on CNN.com. My first car was a 1983 Buick Skyhawk. It was originally my Dad's car in the 80's and he had it parked in his garage for years. When I turned 16, he repaired it for me to drive. I hated the car at first because I wanted a newer one, but when I started driving it I loved it. I came around because it felt so great to have a car and do things on my own. Sadly the car passed away after a year and half. My next car was a 1991 Nissan Sentra.

Another Attack

This week I was attacked by another illness. This time it was an infection on my face. As you can see it cause my face to swell like a ballooon. It was painful at times. It has got me to start looking in to some preventive measures from illnesses. I have already found that Vitamin A will help my body defend it self against infections as well as dry skin. Dry skin has been a major issue for me as well. I often have a dry and flaky face and scalp.

Fall

Signs of fall are evident by the leaves that are begining to fall onto the front lawn. It is also nice and breezy. It is also obvious that I don't have much to blog about these days since I keep posting about it.

What's Going On?

Sorry I haven't posed much in the past weeks. I have not been up to much except kickboxing and piecing together my Halloween costume. I am not going to say what I am going to be. It is a surprise! Im sure that many can guess tho. I am actually excited about Halloween this year.

Happy 1st Anniversary

Today is the first anniversary I started blogging on vox. I was in Hawaii at the time and have some interesting post to look at if you haven't yet.

Worst Week!

This week has been one of the worst weeks for me. I have not been to kickboxing all week because I had real bad stomach pains. I finally decided it was time to go to the doctor after 3 days. They said it was probably food poisoning. I have no clue where I got it from. Another thing that made this week worst was my drinking. I drank so much this week, its amazing that I am still here. I know I need to cut that out. At least I am able to return to kickboxing this week and that will keep me from heading to happy hour after work. And to top it all off I was hit by a woman in our parking garage at work. Damage was minimal but I am not able to open the driver's side door now. Well it is all over now and i am looking forward to next week. I am also excited about Octo Tea Dance tomorrow afternoon. Of course I will watch my drinking since I do have to work Monday Morning.

Kickboxing Day II

Today I went to my second Kickboxing class. It was more intense than Sunday, but I loved it!. This lesson, I continued to work on punches and learned some kicks. My chins will be bruised tomorrow.

Nice Breezy Mid-Day

This mid-day is nice and breezy. I love it when Austin begins to cool down.
