Moving Forward

5 year ago Lindsay would have definitely made fun of today Lindsay. I can't believe how much has changed for me over the past few years. What I like to do is different, my eating habits are different, the people I surround myself with are different, seems like everything is different. With so much change comes alot of insecurity and uncertainty. I've been so unsure of myself the past while but I'm sure as I adjust that will change. I felt so incredibly awkward trying a vegetarian restaurant for the first time. It turned out to be delicious though and we've been back to Cafe Mosaic on Whyte ave a couple times now. I've also found a farm that seems to ethically treat their animals. I looked into all their certifications and talked to the farmer and was invited to come visit the farm. I'll be going this spring and will let you know what I see and find. If what they say is true, I'd be ok with buying meat and eggs from there. For now though, I suppose I'll stick with lettuce. :)

I've been trying to use more natural products too and found some really good shampoo and conditioner. I've been using it for the past few months. Here's the problem. I've been sneezing quite a bit, feeling run down and my nose has been running. I thought I was allergic to vegetarianism. Turns out Argan Oil and Shea Butter is used quite a bit in "natural products". These are nuts! Who knew? Nuts I am allergic too, not vegetables... I guess I'm out of excuses to not eat broccoli.

I still haven't been able to regularly attend classes which sucks, but I'm working on it. I got my greenbelt though, which was a surprise. I thought that I was still pretty far away from getting it. I never feel ready for anything though, so it's a good thing I don't grade myself. I'd still be a white belt if that was the case. I'm a work in progress.

See you at the kwoon!
