Where you are & where you are going to be

If there's one thing I've learned this summer it's that no matter where you are or where you are going to be, you need to be about YOU. I think it's really unfortunate that unless you live in a particularly protected life you need to beware of people who want to take advantage of you. If you are young and sweet and putting yourself "out there" (like lifting like a maniac in the gym) people will notice and even though it sounds jaded, you're probably someone's target.

Well I'm tired of being a target & while I don't want to be perceived as a biatch I also know that perception isn't actuality and so if you make me put on my mean face you've probably done sometting significantly innappropriate.

Like what is up with these trainers at the Gold's gym here in SLC? I have seen some of the most unprofessional behavior especially from the male trainers. It's like training is just a conduit to getting some play. I've watched as trainers prey upon the insecurities of their young female clients - waving bodyfat% and the scale in front of their faces as "motivation" as they workout. I overheard one guy prying information about a girl's sex life in between sets. She clearly was already intimidated... you think she's going to want to go back to the gym? And then there are the ones who pull up their shirts to show of their abs & point to what they are using. So gross. What happened to training someone for fitness & wellness? I guess it's just secondary to looking cool and getting laid. Whoa, mature & someone I want as my role model.

And that just brings me to my most recent annoyance, people who want to get in shape... I mean just want to LOOK like they are in shape and not have to work to get there. The only reason they even want to look like that is to get a little action. Really? I hope when I get to NC I can leave these sort of people behind for good. Because the next person who messes with me isn't going to like what happens.
