&lt;p&gt;Recently I&amp;#8217;ve decided to tone down and start running. This past winter break, I even bought these gorgeous running sneakers to motive myself to run. I guess it&amp;#8217;s been working. I&amp;#8217;ve run more than I&amp;#8217;ve ever run in the past few years. I&amp;#8217;ve even joined a cardio kickboxing class.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But that&amp;#8217;s not enough &amp;#8230; because I&amp;#8217;ve probably done 5 runs in total in the past four months and I&amp;#8217;ve only gone to the kickboxing class twice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I could give the excuse that I&amp;#8217;m swamped with homework, but now that I&amp;#8217;m on spring break &amp;#8212; no excuses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yesterday I called one of my best friends to go out for a run with me. At first, she agreed, jokingly. Unfortunately for her, we were communicating through social media, and I assumed that she was serious. When I found out that she was joking, I still managed to drag her out to go for a 30 minute run.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was pumped. I hadn&amp;#8217;t gone running in a while, and I was ready to see how far I could push my body. But what I didn&amp;#8217;t see coming was the struggle of teamwork that I had not experienced during my runs on campus.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8212;-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Hey, I can&amp;#8217;t!&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was hoping that even though I had run ahead of her, she would eventually catch up. But she didn&amp;#8217;t. I guess it didn&amp;#8217;t help that in that moment, the skies broke open and it was pouring hard.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had planned this run since the night before, and I wasn&amp;#8217;t going to let some raindrops stop me from trying to get a what was supposed to be a simple 30-minute run. However, because she couldn&amp;#8217;t catch up, I stopped.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;You can do this! Don&amp;#8217;t stop! When you stop abruptly in the middle of a run, the exercise becomes useless! Don&amp;#8217;t stop!&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was so angry that I had to stop my exercise because she had given up so easily. So I decided to push her. I dragged her in front of me and yelled, &amp;#8220;Run!&amp;#8221; I kept a steady pace behind for about 30 seconds, and after those seconds passed, we slowed down and walked. Those 30 seconds of running were great &amp;#8212; this meant that she could consistently keep it up, right?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No. Every body is different.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I realized that she couldn&amp;#8217;t run anymore, I gave up. I simply told her to continue walking around the block without me, and I ran.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Supposedly when one runs, one is freed from all thoughts. Unfortunately this wasn&amp;#8217;t the type of run that I got. The whole time I was pushing myself, I kept replaying what had happened.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I became angry at myself because of how impatient I had gotten with her, and I became disappointed in that she didn&amp;#8217;t try pushing herself hard enough. No pain, no gain, right? I could keep making up excuses for my reasons, but it doesn&amp;#8217;t matter. All I knew was that when she told me she wanted to exercise, I took upon her request.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8212;-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Ow, my legs hurt today.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today we were shopping in the mall, looking to go buy some favors for a party she was planning.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;No pain, no gain.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;But, uh. I want to do it again.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I looked at her in disbelief. I couldn&amp;#8217;t believe it. She was finally ready to push herself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8212;-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go running with a friend at some point. Not only do you learn about that person and yourself, but you are also giving your friend an opportunity to learn about themselves.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45963739205</link><guid>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45963739205</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Mar 2013 22:43:48 -0400</pubDate><category>writing</category><category>running</category></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d7bdc07157838d38c851fb6032586651/tumblr_mjze2uZsjO1rh1wv4o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45931138417</link><guid>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45931138417</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:00:16 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/035bb0419ef66b60b283308d4ecd7982/tumblr_meykir5EYh1s0ruhyo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45923678789</link><guid>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45923678789</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Mar 2013 14:00:05 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/04dc804719cb11a8a6e9ae61eb6811f5/tumblr_miqwfdGJdl1qbhjz6o1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45600570678</link><guid>http://mamasdrama.tumblr.com/post/45600570678</guid><pubDate>Sun, 17 Mar 2013 14:00:07 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>WHEN I LOOK LIKE SHIT AND I RUN INTO MY CRUSH</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://howdoiputthisgently.tumblr.com/post/45127364660" target="_blank"&gt;howdoiputthisgently&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;div class="post_content clearfix" id="post_content_45142438969"&gt;
&lt;div class="post_text_wrapper"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I’m lonely.  I’m in my mid-twenties and I’m surrounded by very positive feedback.  I’ve earned it, since I’m a workaholic, I seek perfection in every aspect of my life, from diet and exercise to my wardrobe.  I’m working on a novel and two screenplays, and I have three jobs.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I know I have the tendency to be a control freak, but I’m a very supportive person, and people always lean on me for advice or positive reinforcement.  I’m tired of always being the one to initiate social situations, however.  I ask people to do things all the time, but half the time they’re busy, or else I just wind up alone on weekends.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I don’t want to compromise my goals and dreams, but why do I feel so alone?  I was popular in college - what happened?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;This may be tough to swallow, but your real problem isn’t that you’re lonely. It’s that you simply haven’t realized yet that you’re an asshole.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yes, that’s right. You are a magnificent asshole. You self-identify as a “workaholic” — &lt;em&gt;asshole&lt;/em&gt;. You say things like “I’m surrounded by very positive feedback” and “I seek perfection in every aspect of my life” without the slightest trace of irony — &lt;em&gt;asshole&lt;/em&gt;. You brag about how many jobs you’re holding down and the number of projects you’re currently writing — &lt;em&gt;asshole, asshole, asshole&lt;/em&gt;. I mean, come on. That was just your opening paragraph.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don’t worry. Being an asshole is fairly common for people your age, especially overachievers who enjoyed popularity in college. The good news is that you don’t have to keep being an asshole.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All you have to do is chill the fuck out. Learn to be a serious person without taking yourself so damned seriously. Start recognizing when you’re coming off as persnickety, and stop being a control freak.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nobody is asking you to compromise your goals and dreams. In fact, you should start reminding yourself that nobody gives a fuck about your goals and dreams. Most of the time, people don’t even give a fuck about what you say. All they really care about is how you make them feel.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, how do you make the people in your life feel? The truth is, even though they know you’re a good person, you kind of annoy them. That’s why they only want to deal with you in small doses.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you relax, pull the stick out of your ass, and quit treating life like it’s one big job interview, you’ll soon find that people will enjoy being around you more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
