Go for a jog

Some of this stuff doesn’t look like something you could really do in the morning anyway, so you decide to go with the jog. That turns out to be a little easier said than done, as it requires you to dig through your boxes of less-used clothes, still packed from moving in, to find your running clothes.

Back in high school, you went out on morning jogs at least once a week. Of course, that was motivated by a deep desire to not gain any weight, and avoid ridicule from anyone at school. Ever since coming to college, despite promising yourself you’d get back to it one of these days, you haven’t. After all, because you don’t know anyone, there’s no social pressure to stay trim.

Still, in the months you’ve been here, you’ve actually only gained maybe three or four pounds. You might have stopped exercising, but you also have cut down on food due to stress and money. It’s not healthy, but it’s what you’ve had to do.

Soon you’re ready to go, with black leggings clinging to your lower half, and a sports bra restraining your modest breasts under a tank top. It’s time to go!

There’s not a lot of people out, as the weather is starting to dip from ‘mild’ to ‘cold’. Plus, it’s Saturday. At first, it’s hard to get going. All the time you’ve spent relaxing has chipped away at your leg strength, so it’s not long before you’re huffing and puffing. Still, you push through it, and after a while you feel like you’re back in the sling of things.

After about half an hour out and about, you get back home. To your amazement, you’re not actually feeling very tired, and you want to admonish yourself for not doing this sooner. You pull out your phone and click on the Task you accomplished. It shows you with a pop-up box how that affected your in-app stats.

Confidence 0->1

Fitness 0->1

Femininity 24->21

Nerdiness 19->14

You’re a little confused on why exactly your Femininity was effected, but you actually kind of agree with the Confidence. After that jog, you do feel a lot more confident in yourself!

What you don’t realize is what else the app has begun to do to your body and mind. Your breasts actually shrink, just a little, putting them closer to small than average in size. The muscles that you’d built up in high school return with a vengeance, just as strong as they were then. The small weight you’d gained after coming to college disappears, leaving you with a flat stomach. With that drop in Nerdiness, your knowledge of Lord of the Rings starts to shrink, going from someone who would call herself a fan of it to someone casually familiar with the films, if that.

Unaware of what the app has been doing to you, you’re ready to try and complete another Task. But which one?
