She did this involuntary glance over my less-than-ideal body and said "That's amazing, i would have neeevvver guessed that" Then paused a moment and said "yeah, I mean never, I woulda never thought that"



LOL. I was thinking 'I get it, I get it. It's surprising'

She didn't question me on my passion like she did everyone else, she just skipped over me and went on.

If my deadlift was as good as yours is, I might have decided to beat her up.
What a rude wench! Jeez; that's amazing how people can be so catty right to someone's face. Do they think that we don't understand what they're saying?

I've had plenty of experiences where people hear what I have to say (which is usually quite against the norm of what other people think), and then just pass on by without asking further, so I get what you went through. But just think if you ever run into that lecturer again after you've gotten farther in your training, how surprised she'll be to see how great you look. Then she'll be jealous. And maybe worry that you will beat her up with your big muscles! (Evil laugh)

Fill them up with precious cargo,
Squeeze in all that you can find.
Spontaneous elation and the long enduring kind.
