Dreams and Goals.
My grandma told me that if I lost 30 pounds, she'd give me 250 dollars to buy new clothes with. I'm gonna try and do it by my birthday. I started Sunday, and pretty much failed at the dieting yesterday, but I did well today. I made chocolate chip cookies (DELICIOUS ones, and fucking huge) and that was probably not the best idea cause I've had three today. >.> But whatevs. Even if I do 20 by my birthday and 10 spring semester, I'll still be happy. Mimi's deadline is end of the school year.
I'm pretty addicted to HGTV. I never stop watching it. And watching it so much has made me realize that someday, I want to live in Seattle, or some city on a lake, and buy a beautiful condo near the water. I don't want a house, cause I want to live in the middle of the action and I don't want to take care of a yard, hahah. I don't want kids and I don't want to get married, so I'm staying way out of suburbia. I can definitely picture myself waking up in a nice modern/contemporary condo, having some tea on the balcony, watching the water or the people pass by... Sounds pretty nice. Of course, I have to graduate, go through grad school, and get a job first, but hey. A girl can dream. As soon as I pay off my credit cards, I'm gonna start saving for a down payment. Even if it's only five dollars, something is going into that savings account each month.
Speaking of credit cards, that's goal #2. I'm hoping to have all my credit card debt paid off by the time I graduate. Assuming that I graduate on time (which I won't), I have a little under two years to clear myself of about $2,300 dollars in debt. Since I'll probably graduate late, I have like two years, three months or something like that. Should probably stay on campus instead of paying rent, but hey...whatever. I'll make it work.
I'm going to be so fucking busy this semester. Andrew and I have already had to schedule lunches together on Mondays and Wednesdays cause it may be the only days we see each other. o.x I work Mon-Fri at my job on campus, three-four hours per day. I have a Sunday job at a retail store at the mall that I started training at yesterday (kinda sucks cause it's retail, but I really just want the extra money for bills). I'm taking 16 credit hours in classes, which include a Thursday night class, a math class, and a bellydancing class. I'm also still volunteering for the museum (don't ask me on what day, I haven't figured it out yet, o.x) and hoping to get involved with some organizations on campus. I won't have to worry about losing weight cause I'll never fucking have time to eat, hahahah. My day planner is gonna get the shit used out of it, that's for sure.
All in all, my future's looking pretty bright (as soon as I take care of my debt). I've definitely learned alot this past year and as busy as next semester is shaping up to be, it's also gonna be fun and exciting. :D
