Happy Happy Happy!
I love life...truly for the first time I think. Everything is just going really well and I am genuinely happy. I feel so much better about myself now that I've started exercising every day and dieting. If you want to get in shape for summer or something, I highly suggest the SELF Challenge. It's so easy to follow and kind of fun...at least I think so, but I'm a dork so who am I to say? haha But ya...go to www.self.com/challenge and sign up. It's free and everything and they help you every step of the way. You could even pull a me...I have a picture of Adriana Lima (one of the Victoria's Secret models) in a bikini hanging on my white board haha. She's my motivation to keep working out and getting into shape. It works for me, so that's all that matters.
I was more or less accepted into the study abroad program in Italy. How exciting is that?! I'm going to be living in Rome in the fall for like 3 months! I am so nervous but so excited. Guess I'll be teaching myself Italian this summer huh? haha
I paid off my Kohl's credit card today too! I am just so happy with myself. I feel like I'm finally getting stuff together with my life. Although I feel like I definitely need a break from school...I feel like every one here is getting sick of me or something. Oh well, that's what vacations are for right? But ya, the only credit card left to pay off is Visa. Sure there's like $750 on there, but there was like $1230 so it's a lot better. Not to mention, I'm getting my pay check on Thursday and federal taxes soon. I'll knock it down to $600 in no time and that will be my whole trip paid off and just my shopping habit left to pay off haha. But since Mo still has the card, I can't make it any worse...well except for the change in my hotel and more trip stuff. I'll have all summer to pay the rest off and actually save money. Can you imagine it?! I'm going to save money this summer...except for my books I'll be buying. I love reading books during the summer. Nothing better than curling up on a rainy day in the trailer and reading or sitting on the boat and reading or reading before bed...but you get the idea haha. I don't know how much I'll even be able to read, since I plan on working a lot. But hey, the more money the better. It's better to get money saved up, especially since I'll have to buy Christmas gifts in Italy. So if I usually get you a Christmas gift, better think of something you want from Italy...and you better not ask for expensive leather or wine haha. Not going to happen...I am not that rich, despite what you all think.
So I cannot wait for my trip to Missouri. Although I have no idea what I'll be doing there. If anyone knows the deal with renting a car in someone else's name and then driving it yourself, let me know because that's what I'm thinking about doing. It would just involve Jamie having to pick up the car with me or whatever...we'll see. It would just be a lot easier.
Ok, well I better go finish homework and then I have to take a shower before bed because I don't want to go to bed after working out for a half hour (yuck!) haha. Goodnight!
