Getting comfortable and active

Since the spring track and field season has ended, I haven't done any form of exercise, and it shows. The usual six-pack has disappeared, as well as the semi-toned legs, and everything else that goes away when one discontinues daily exercise. Make no mistake, I do not see it as a priority to have the "summer bod" every teenage girl seems to be obsessed with, I would just like to be confident. I finally took action and went for a mile run at my local park. One mile isn't exactly a lot but it sure felt like it was. I felt really good about it afterwards, therefore, I will attempt to do it again today, wish me luck. Something else that has really spiced up my life is church. Honestly, I used to absolutely hate church. It felt like I was going to church and doing nothing but making an attempt to fit into those little social circles everyone makes during conversations. That circle where if there's only one more spot for someone to fit in, only one person is coming in and there's no making more room...extremely exclusive. I decided to make more of an effort to be better friends with these people. I attended more church outings and participated in activities. I actually let them see the outgoing side of me. So far, it is working wonderfully. I finally feel like I belong. Yesterday, we had a meeting about the mission trip to Canada next month. That meeting just got me even more excited about getting closer to them like I did last summer in Arizona. Lastly, the love life has died and then is still living. I haven't really lost feelings for the guy on my track team but it has definitely toned down. Real feelings don't just go away, right? So that is the part that kind of died, more like went into hibernation. (It will probably wake again when school starts in August) The part that is still living can be found at my church (I keep mentioning church, yet I'm not a very religious person, it just became fun all of a sudden). There's this guy who I'm not really interested in but I'm getting the sense he's a bit interested in me. He's a year older so that's awkward. I'm not the type of person who is fond of age differences. I get the feeling he likes me because well, I don't think he's staring at me for fun. It's weird because the same thing happened with another guy at church who's a year younger than me. Yet the guy who is actually in my grade doesn't seem to be showing any interest in me...for now anyways. What do you think I should do with the guy I'm not really interested in?
