On the up and up

So, to touch base a little on yoga some, my favorite kind of yoga is Kundalini yoga. I first found out about this in 2008 and proceeded to buy about 7 different home work out videos on Amazon.com, by Ana Brett and Ravi Singh. They are so wonderful! You can find out how amazing they are by visiting http://www.raviana.com/. They are a couple - married - and they train celebrities and normal people alike (hehe, normal). I have found that after doing one of their videos, I feel totally brand new and refreshed. Kind of like after I'm done chanting, so the two are a great complement to each other! No wonder I named this blog after my three biggest obsessions right now. I am excessive by nature, I tend to over do it what ever "it" is - and once, my mom told me that if there is anything to obsess over, let it be chanting - because that is one thing that wont hurt me by being too obsessive, but will in fact HELP me. She's so right. If I need to get obsessed about anything, it should be spending more and more time in front of my gohonzon. For those who aren't sure what that is, the dai-gohonzon the object of devotion in Buddhism. It is part of the altar, and is inside the butsudan.  I will be happy to elaborate on that more and more in posts to come, but for a quick reference, you can visit sgi-usa.org. I should probably start signing my blogs the way I sign my journal and diary entries... with "nam myoho renge kyo". http://sgi-usa.org/buddhism/nam-myoho-renge-kyo.php! Tonight, I work, and will be practicing math as much as possible. I am re-training my brain to understand numbers again on a whole new level. I've had no reason to use numbers much for my job or other areas of my life so I have really fallen off the beaten path with math. But we have a test on Tuesday on integers - negative and and positive numbers - and the addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division of negative and positive numbers. So, I ask you, what is -9 -9(14 - 12)?   How about 1/84 - (1/3) 2 x 3/7??Well, somehow, the negative numbers really trip me up. So, practice is due tonight. I also get to see my co-worker Jocelyna tonight. I miss her! I haven't seen her in awhile it seems like. We love to laugh. LOL. Other things I am looking forward to is getting my new license in the mail this week, and getting some things I ordered off the internet in the next few days delivered. I can't say from which store, because I got one of my mom and Kals' x-mas/hannukah presents off the website and don't want to give it away!!! It's a cool gift though, they'll have a lot of use for it being that they are now on a farm. I do need to take a nap, but I'll post again tonight!

Nam Myoho Renge Kyo!!!!!!! <3 <3 <3

Good afternoon to my blog, i guess? Hah! I never know how to narrate this stuff, anyhoo.... 'Tis Sunday, Im well in to week 2 of this raw food experiment, going strong. I haven't failed to stick to it at all minus coffee at work. What a feat!! I have learned that I really can have excellent self-discipline when I really want to. I uploaded two pictures of me standing or sitting in front of the fan that Althea gave me. :) That way I can track how I look in these beginning phases as well as upload a pic of my new present!!
