the pain diaries

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"I learned that nothing good comes without work and a certain amount of pain. When I finish a set that leaves me shaking, I know more about myself. When something gets bad, I know it can't be as bad as that workout. I used to fight the pain, but recently this became clear to me: pain is not my enemy; it is my call to greatness." ~Henry Rollins

About Me

My photo
MC
I am a walking contradiction. I am strong enough to hold my own with the boys at the gym, but I'm a shoe obsessed girly girl the rest of the time. I'm tough as nails on the outside, but sensitive on the inside. I'm the smartest airhead you'll ever meet. I'm an unorganized neat freak that's always making a mess. I hate being late, yet I'm late EVERYWHERE I go. I'm silly and I'm serious. I am many things. I am me.
