Getting Connected

In trying to increase my social and peer networking to get better connected into the fitness industry I have taken a couple of significant steps:

1. I have really picked up more on this blog and changed a lot of the content in what I am posting about. I love health, fitness and nutrition. That is what this blog is going to be about.

2. I have started to comment more on other blogs. I want them to start to recognize my name and I am slowly inching my way into the blogger "circle."

3. I decided to attend the BLEND RETREAT which is being held in Utah this year! I thought this would be my best opportunity to actually MEET people that I admire so much and get some good ideas on how to get more connected. They are actually doing a series of giveaways from the sponsors of the retreat. This week Chobani is giving away 2 cases of their yogurt. Oh I would so like to win! To learn more about Chobani and to enter the contest visit this link here.

4. I VERY recently signed up on Twitter. I have spent the past couple of days trying to get aquainted with the site and how it is different from Facebook. Although I enjoy Facebook to keep up with my friends I am really liking the peer networking aspect of Twitter. Some might argue that they are practically the same thing but I am feeling a very different vibe from each of them.

In other news - I AM SO GLAD THAT IT IS FRIDAY AND ALSO THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING BREAK!!!! I absolutely love school but I am worn out and I need a good break. It helps that Spring has sprung around here and the weather has me positively itching to get outside and play.

QUESTIONS FOR MY DEAR READERS: Any tips for me in getting started on Twitter? Are there people that you think I would really enjoy following? Do you have any favorite health/wellness/nutrition/fitness blogs?

I do not even understand how I finished up here, however I
thought this post was once great. I do not recognize who you are but certainly you're going to a famous blogger for those who are not already. Cheers!

Here is my weblog: Raspberry Ketone
