Weighted Donkey Calf Raises
I just thought this was hilarious: http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/Gastrocnemius/WTDonkeyCalfRaise.html I'm usually in my own lalaland at the gym, but if I saw this I don't think I'd be able to stop the giggles. Feel free to make me laugh more with amazing exercises.

Make Me Fall ASLEEEEP
It's almost 2:30 and I still can't fall asleep. I exhausted all my ADD on facebook and the forums and reading nyt articles and organizing my notes to study and blablablablabla. I even counted sheep! I have to wake up in 4 hours, BORE ME TO SLEEP, PLEASE!

CHINESE: Do you speak any form of it?
Hey guys! If anyone speaks any dialect of Chinese (or wants a little challenge), help me out pleeeeeaaaaaaaaase!!!!!! The assignment has to do with foreign words and their equivalents in English. For example (this is without all the little diacritical marks, but...): ka-fei = coffee , kong-fu-zi = Confucius. I'm stuck on 2…

I'ma run my own marathon!
So I was reading this Nerdfitness article (http://nerdfitness.com/blog/2012/04/19/ive-vicariously-through-yourself/) and came across this link (http://hrostoski.com/2012/02/spontaneous-marathon-with-no-training/), which inspired me. So on May 13th, after my finals and after the Brooklyn Food Conference, I am going to run…

Pretty
This is Katie Makkai defining "pretty." It gets really good at the end, very powerful. What do you guys think? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6wJl37N9C0&feature=share

Wake Me Up!
I feel sort of ridiculous asking and admitting this, but I need some help. I totally and completely SUCK at waking up. My snooze button is worn out from being slammed 50 times each morning, and I usually end up trudging out of bed 15 minutes before I need to head out, throwing myself together, and I'm out the door. I…

What should I do to marry a rich guy?
A friend just shared this and I thought it was priceless. It's J.P. Morgan's CEO's reply to some questions a "pretty lady" had. A young 'n pretty lady posted this on a popular forum: ...Title: What Should I do to Marry A Rich Guy? I'm going to be honest of what I'm going to say here. I'm 25 this year. I'm very pretty, have…

Slut Files.
I'm dying to know. What's an instant label for slut? Or man-slut? Excessive make-up? Butt hanging out of a mini skirt? What about behavior wise? Can someone be taken seriously if they sext or flirt excessively or something of the sort?

I can't believe/There's No Way...
I'm procrastinating. Let's play a game. Write something that you can't believe about the person above you based on their profile/picture. Good things, and be nice. Edit: Hmmm, I just realized this may be a bit hard to do. Be creative I guess?

What do you think of...
...when you're bored. I'm bored now. I'm taking a break from reading and I was thinking about how I'm becoming anti-social. I don't even want to go out anymore. My idea of an amazing time has become going to the gym (by myself), going outside and running (by myself), going to bed with a good book (by myself). Even a…

I don't know what to do with my life.
I thought I knew what I wanted to do, but I was wrong. Very wrong. (I'm not looking for an answer here, I just want to hear some opinions from different brains so I can get some ideas/thoughts.) I'm a Spanish and Linguistics major, Chemistry minor. What will I do with that, you ask? EXCELLENT question. The not so excellent…

Exercise Map
I just found this and it is SO. COOL. Click on the body part that you want to work out the muscles of and it gives you a whole list of exercises you can do with equipment or just your own body weight. I mean, I know you can't spot reduce, but this is still pretty neat... Males: http://www.exrx.net/Lists/WtMale.html…

Taller Tall Girls
So I bought a pair of 4 and a quarter inch heels recently and wore them out, and got a comment about how it was too much. I'm a tiny bit over 5'8", so I was almost 6 feet tall, way taller than mostly everyone around me, including pretty much every guy. It's not the first time I wore something so high, but it never really…

Clean Eaters
Lately I've been seeing "clean eating" being mentioned a lot. This may be a stupid question, but what exactly does a clean diet consist of? What do all of you who eat clean eat? Details, please! Edit: Specific examples/meals would really help too.

Kaboom?
I haven't had a pick up line used on me in quite a while, so this was definitely exciting (and totally had me laughing to myself all day). I was on the train and this guy comes up to me and goes "You have a beautiful face. What country are you from?" I say "Azerbaijan" and he goes "That's somewhere in the Middle East,…

Running?
Hi all! (EDIT: sorry, this came out really long...) I recently invested in a heart rate monitor and wore it while going out running. Before, I ballparked 10-12 calories/minute and mfp gave me around 600-700 calories burned for about an hour. According to my HRM, my brisk walking heart rate jumped to around 125-130 from a…

Where Did You Go?
I haven't seen a friend in about 5 months b/c we're in different states for college but she just came back and we hung out. She saw me, gave me a hug, then looked to my left, to my right, and behind me. I was like wtf is she doing and she goes "Where's the rest of you?!" My pic is from about 12 pounds ago, and I saw her…

radishes...
...is a funny word. But anyway, what's the deal with them? I tried reading online about them but only found good things, so why haven't they caught on with everyone? Am I missing something? They taste great (if you like the whole tangy hot feeling in your mouth) and are virtually calorieless. I think I'm definitely missing…
