A New Student; Empathy

Boy, I never would have imagined in 10,000 years that I’d be spending any time in a place like THIS. “Just show up,” that’s what I keep telling myself. I wish it was that simple. 

I bet these weights get heavy but I’d be lying if I told you that it wasn’t a heck of an effort trying to pretend like I don’t care what people think. I hope they’re nice to me. Everyone says this place is great, but I’ve never been a gym person and by the looks of that chick in the corner.. I’m different. 

Ugh, “just show up.”

I guess there’s only one “first class” and it will get easier to show up, but this is taking everything I got not to just walk back to my car. Hell, no one would notice.  I’m nervous. Being new sucks, but it doesn’t suck enough for me to not want to be healthy. Welp, here goes nothin’..

“Hey, Is it your first day?… What’s your name?”

Ah, thank goodness.. a friend!
