Ouchie!

Yesterday, at the eBay gym -- I was showing Linda how I couldn't do a single real push-up.

OK, actually -- It's worse than that. I can't even do a half push up... you know the kind where you're on your knees instead of your feet.

YA... so sad! WEAK! So I attempted to do ONE, and basically what happens is once I get down, I can't get back up... I think I just don't have any muscles there. =(

I attempted a couple times after that... and still no such luck. I'm freakin weak when it comes to upper body strength.

So today, a day after that work out, my freakin armpit muscles (I think they're called the subscapularis) were killing me!



I've realized that I don't think I've really ever had to work that muscle ... which explains what I like to call my "armpit fat" issue. hehehe No matter how fit i get, from running or the elliptical machine or bikram yoga or whatever.... I always have a stubborn pocket of fat in my armpit area. grrrr!

Ok..time to start attempting push-ups more often! My goal for the new year? Be able to do 3 REAL pushups! HAHAHAHA, sounds lame but I'm serious.

Not trying to get buff or anything, just wanna see if I can fix a problem spot!

A sweet photo session with Wendy and Alan

Just to give an intro to this post -

After so many years of being on the other side of the camera (as a model), and also producing and art directing shoots -- I decided I'd give photography a shot. I got myself a brand new Canon EOS 5D a few months ago....and I LOoooooVE it. So I've taken on photography as my new hobby. For those of you who know me, know that I take my hobbies seriously. So be prepared to see some more awesome stuff. Below are some of my favorite pics from my very first shoot ever as a photographer. My friends Wendy and Alan graciously agreed to be my very first subjects and they were SOOO awesome!!! I have some more shoots lined up with friends this month, but if you're interested in modeling for me -- let me know!

On Sunday, I spent the morning with my buddies Wendy and Alan. We drove around their neighborhood in Pleasanton and got some amazing shots. Checkout my favorite images from our shoot below. *the first and last scenery images were taken from online pix just to add a nice effect to my image slide. The rest were all shot by me!
