what's the use of stacking on every failure, another stone.
Since I finished my first year of grad school- yippee!, I have been on a break from school for a few weeks now. What have I been doing? Well, visited my Gramma one weekend, visited my sister the next, visited the bay area the following weekend, and this past weekend I mostly just chilled with friends. Within that time period I spent 1 week injured, and the following 2 weeks with the worst sinus infection/thing I've ever had. I call it the "thing" because I swear it was more than a sinus infection. I was throwing up and the whole 9 yards.
At any rate, I have been looking forward to putting May behind me in some ways, so June is quite welcome! Though I start summer school in a couple of weeks, I'm looking forward to what is hopefully a healthier period of time. And maybe better weather? Who knows. It's been ridiculously unpredictable all over the place.
I am excited to go camping, and doubly excited because I got a new sleeping pad. I feel all official now, or something. I can't wait to try it out! I also got lots of car work done, which cost quite a bit of money. It's frustrating when the labor cost is 6 times what the parts actually cost. I should just learn to fix the dang thing myself. I guess that's the price I pay for car ownership though. I am quite happy with my car, it's just expensive sometimes. I guess lots of things in life are like that though.
I've been feeling all reflective lately. Not too sure why, but just thinking through places and things I've gone through and the place I am now. I'm not sure I'd recognize myself 2 or even 3 years ago. I'm proud of the place I'm at now, and excited to see where I'm headed.
I've been doing a workout series that has promised to "get me totally shredded" so we'll see. It's a 3-level program and I'm on day 8 overall; today was day 5 on level 2. I haven't quite been able to make it all the way through level 2 without feeling like I'm going to pass out, so no moving onto level 3 just yet! I also began a 7-day detox today. Mostly I want to just get a fresh start. I keep going back and forth between eating well and then eating whatever the hell I want. I always feel best when I'm eating well and exercising on a regular basis. And I know that no matter what, exercise keeps me sane.
