weightliftingandribbons said: Idk what that is but YAY CONGRATS

Thank you! It's a medical college that has a speech pathology program. It's also like my ~main choice~ out of the programs that I've applied to. Financially, I can't afford to fly out there (....... with two weeks notice.....) so I asked for an alternative arrangement to be made so I'm a little worried that I won't get in because I couldn't interview in person but whatever, I guess.

microfeisty said: Haha I get these feels almost every day like “how does it take me 1hr to get to work I used to run more than double this in less”. #gainz

As someone who used to run 6+ miles per day, I feel this so hard.

microfeisty said: Ok number 1 you used the word miffed and this makes me happy and 2 apple shapes 5eva. I am a lollipop, that is to say an apple on stick legs.

1. 'miffed' is a grossly underutilized word and it's gr8 2. Srsly. Also short legs. Is a thing. That is awesome.

microfeisty said: I have a wide squat for depth and comfort even though I’m extremely mobile and in my case it’s definitely because I have wide hips compared to the rest of me. It could well be anatomical but I’ve heard sometimes lower back tightness contributes.

Interesting-- I've always had a wide squat for depth (not excessively wide) and when I try a more narrow stance I can't reach the same depth that I would normally. Even when I clean, my legs are pretty far apart. But I'll ask my coach just in case, since he's never said anything about how wide my squat is and I've always just assumed it was okay???

microfeisty said: THIS IS SO IMPRESSIVE WOWOWOW also URGH hitting your shin is the worst! Hope it doesn’t cause too much pain later on because that isn’t fun and nobody needs that.

THANK YOU also my shin is fine now it just looks like I ran into something (which... is close... to what happened...) and it's bruised but eh.

notmodernart said: holy cow you had 60+ kgs over your head!

!!!! Which is gr8 considering I had problems earlier in the program jerking 52 kg and I thought I was a failure.

femmeforte said: That jerk was gorgeous. Teach me how to get your head through like that.

It involves failing to get your head through properly and slamming the bar into your chin a lot. And maybe doing jerks at really light weights because... my jerk... is... my (not so secret) shame.

oh man it's true. If I ever have money again I might do the things
