So, as you can see I'm trying to make good on my goals that I previously set for myself.
* I've been working on my bedroom and bathroom; painting them and decorating.
* I have been reading the Twilight series; I just started book numero tres (that's the third book for you who are not fluent in spanglish). This actually wasn't one of my aforementioned goals, but who really cares, it should have been.
* I have been putting on a smiley face and thinking positively about my future, even though I'm really quite nervous about it.
so doin good.....
However. I've decided that life is a challenge. Well. I redecided that...again...actually. What's the deal with when you try to work on something new in your life, and the old stuff you thought you had down to a science starts to fall by the wayside and become something you need to work on again... reinforcing the nagging wonder if you'll ever have a balanced life?! (Or is that just me?)
Here's the list of stuff I used to have down to a science and need to rework on again:
* working out. Yes. Haven't been to the gym since June. MONTHS ago. One of these days I'm going to pull a muscle getting out of my desk. That would be funny/not.
* dressing myself. I'm probably kidding myself, when I say I used to have style, but I wear scrubs 4 out of 7 days of the week, and the other days I wish I had an excuse to wear them b/c I swear I have nothing. I look at the new incoming freshman walking on campus and I'm like...wow...they're so ....coool... (I also look at my roommate with similar admiration and awe)
* getting out of bed in the mornings. I am not kidding you, there was a time in my life when I chose to get up at 5 in the morning just so I could read and start my day off early, even if I didn't have class till 9. I'm lucky if I can get out of bed by 9:30 these days.
Here's the list of stuff I have never been good at, but still have in mind to work on:
* politics, ya know, getting informed.
* the list could go on...but I'll stop at that one.
...Anyways.
So, yeah. The purpose of this delightfully exposing exercise for me is knowing that you are aware of my follies keeps me accountable to myself... It makes sense to me. Just go with it.

It's a constant battle, otherwise we might get bored. I get frustrated at myself weekly. It's best to just sit back and enjoy the roller coaster that is life while also trying to make those high points last as long as possible........if possible.
I just read the 1st book of the twilight series. The main character, Bella, sooooo reminds me of you. Not sure why, but when I read about her, I see you in my mind.
Love ye.
lol you're not the first person that has told me that! I kind of picture myself as her too as I'm reading. I really relate to her... Probably b/c we're both magnets for disastrous situations. Although a total wreck, she's likable :)
