7:08 mile

So we had the mile run today at school.
I got really pumped.
I strapped on my watch.
And hit start.

And I got 7:08!!!!!!

Now I know it's not that good for those of you who make sub 7 miles and sub 6 miles, but this was 20 seconds off my PB. So I was pretty happy, you could say.
I did do one or two practice runs in my own time, so I can't say that didn't help.

As for the 21-Day Challenge, I set some goals. Every week, I aim to lose a kilo. By the end of the challenge, I'm hoping to lose 2.5-3 kilos.
And in general, I also set some goals. For every kilo I lose, I'll buy myself something on my wish list. Right now it's nail polish remover, because I have a pretty sparkly french manicure on at the moment but as with all french manicures, it's chipping quickly.

Other reward items include:
-Covergirl's Clump Crusher mascara-after a lot of research, I concluded this was the best one for separation, a priority for my eyelashes. The brush also gives you volume, which I need.
-White eyeliner-supposed to make your eyes 'pop'
-Workout clothing!-I really want a plain black singlet! Or another pair of running shorts :D
-OPI's Alpine Snow polish-I really want a quality white polish
-An epilator. If I choose the more costly type, maybe I'll buy it after 2 or 3 kilos have been shedded, or I'll make it my last reward. I really want it though-it would seriously make my life so much easier.
-this weird looking eye makeup tool thing-again, this would just solve all my mascara problem of getting the stuff everywhere but my eyelashes.
-one more thing...just because it will then be 9 rewards for 9.5 kilos...

I have an excursion to the city in about a month. City=style. Style=thin. I must lose weight by then!!!! I want to actually be able to enjoy the city and showcase my streetstyle fashion sense on legs that don't resemble elephants. And then I have Duke of Ed's hike a week after...my legs need to be thin to look good in my workout shorts too! And I need to get my fitness up!

Right now, as in today, I'm kind of over my daily calorie goal. I'm not saying by how much. I did want to be 52kg by tomorrow morning, and I hope today won't affect that...I weighed myself yesterday though, and I was pretty much 52!!! Maybe 52.3 or something, but almost 52! I'll have weigh in tomorrow morning first thing, and maybe I'll be nice if I'm not there yet and weigh myself after school.

Byeeeee
