New Month, New Goals / Roller Skates

My internet died earlier, on my home computer, and I wasn't able to type up my feelings on this site for four days. It's great to be back, I can say whatever again with no fear as to who reads it. Nobody really knows who I am, which is really nice for once.
It's March now. Spring is in the air; I'll be able to garden here shortly. I miss being outside in the scorching sun, sweating, with a shovel in my hand digging up dirt for patches of flowers.
Since it's a new month, I want to set new goals for myself to reach. Nothing too difficult to where it's impossible to EVER achieve. Just a few things that require a small portion of dedication.
I want to start using 100% organic products for my face, hair, and body. No more chemical crap. Whatever you put on your skin or hair is eventually absorbed into the body and settles inside until removed. Looking at my bathroom cabinet, I have a lot of chemical-filled products that I use everyday without a second thought. So, I'm going to change that. I also heard organic products work better, too.
The second thing I'm going to try and do is shampoo my hair every OTHER day, and straighten it 2 - 3 times a week. This is good for my hair growth mission, and good for my hair in general. I wash my hair everyday, due to it being oily, but I shouldn't. I heard it's bad for your hair. Last night I took a shower but skipped the shampoo/condition process. My hair looks alright right now, it doesn't look like it normally does, but that's expected. After a few weeks it should be fine.
Thirdly, I'm going to workout five days a week, and rest on the weekends. An hour each day, and no slacking. I need to whip my body into shape and get skinny. Eating healthier, more deep green veggies (which I love!), so that it can curb cravings of chocolate I have. I hate having a sweet tooth, it contributed in my weight now I bet. I eat a lot of sweets.
Recently weighing myself, I'm 115 lbs now. Not a huge loss, but a loss all the same.
Since it's a new month, I decided to go roller skating for the first time last night. I was invited by a friend of mine for a 'break-up' party, and I originally wasn't going to go. But since I'm trying new things, I eventually decided that it wouldn't be such an awful idea, and that I should just man-up.
It started at 7:30 PM, and I sat outside with my friend at 6 PM. We wanted first in line.
When 7:25 PM rolled around, we were let inside and payed $8 for our skates and admission. I looked out at the skating area and my stomach flopped. It looked torturous. Then again, it was my first time being to one of these places, so I expected to be nearly scared out of my mind.
I got the roller skates on and sat down at a bench. Watching everyone look like pros zooming around. I got enough nerves to stand up and start skating, arms of friends held tightly to mine, and it wasn't so bad. Granted, I fell 6 times, but what did I honestly expect? I started getting the jist of it, but stayed off to the sidelines mainly, talking.
My friend bought me a pretzel, and I ate half of it and gave the other half to him. I hadn't eaten that day, and I didn't really want to.
A few special skate things went on. Limbo skating, speed skating, couples skating. I joined couples skating with my friend. It was really fun!
All of this lasted until 11 PM, and then I was driven home, falling asleep in the car. I couldn't believe I even made it to 11 PM.
I got home, showered, drank tea, and then practically passed out on my bed.
Skating is a lot more fun then I thought it would be. I just need to master it so I don't feel like such a beginner. Even though I am.
It's invigorating to be back here again. I missed the feeling of relaxation I got after releasing all of my pent up feelings. Nothing can really compare to it, so I'll just keep typing day by day and calming down more, feeling negativity leave my body.
Such a good feeling.
