Ok, I have two Japanese penpals! yay! Yuki and Akemi. Yuki said it takes a long time to write emails in english so we're going to email/snail mail. Akemi prefers snail mail only. I said Iw oudl send them christmas cards (Because they are probably used to getting new years cards,lol) but I realised today that its NINE FREAKING DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!
I haven't finished shopping, and I haven't finished my painting.
I keep telling myself I work best under pressure, but WHERE THE FUCK DID THAT COME FROM!?!?!! I dont work well under pressure! Well, I did last year. I had TWO paintings I was doing for christmas and I managed to get them done. So maybe ... GUH. I need tow ork on it SOON. (See how I am still procrastinating even though I'm complaining about it???)
Went shopping today though, I can safely say I am almost done. But I keep picking up extra things and then I have to make my other gifts EVEN and buy another gift...blah. If I keep it up I'm going to be po'.
I'm kind of glad I dont drive/own a car, own a house, and have kids. Everyone I work with who is young who has one, two, or all three can never leave early on VTO (Voluntary Time Off) and usally end up singing up for OT (over time)
Not me. they come over to see who wants to leave, even if its 2 hours in to my shift, I so have my hand up. Plus I still have money in the bank! the good thing is, if I leave on VTO I can now ask for PTO (paid time off) so that helps the blow.
Andrew needs to get his gifts. We agreed that he would be buying for his grandfather, father and brother. But he hasn't done a thing yet.
Also, anyone know how much drum mats are. He has a drum kit but its on this UGLY pink carpet. If is going to be in my living room I want it on something nicer, and thinner. (My living room is huge so its not like we're cramped or anything)
I CLEANED MY BATHROOM AND BATHTUB> I AM SO AWESOME.
Oh, yeah. You know,its funny how when you stop working out (DDR,BIKING) and start eating CHIPS and POP you gain leik, TONS of weight. I wasn;t skinny to begin with so now I'm kinda .... disappointed with myself. So I ahev been trying to do someworkouts on my own. I'm cutting chips and pop out again. (which is funny because I did that before, and I didn't crave them AT ALL! then a coupleoftimes Andrew brought me a bag of chips. I didn't want themthe first,or second time, but then because I didn't stop THERE, I then started to want more!) ACK
I can feel where the blubber is blubbering in, I HATE IT! Man,I used to do some difficult songs on DDR and bike this summer. I was doing very well. Now I'm back, NO WORSE than where I was before.
Anyway. I just wanted tocomplain. BUt no worries,as much as it bothers me,I'm starting again. There is always tomorrow. I have to keep telling myself that I'm doing a lot better than I was yesterday, even though I feel the same. Because yesterday, last week,last month,I wasn't doing anythign AT ALL.
stupid J=dramas. making me SIT.
Well. I still watch my j dramas, but now I schedule a time for a workout.
I'm also getting better at making supper, and I'm sticking with chicken,eating red meat only on occasion. I'm also learning how to keep my dishes and counter clean. I mean. I know how to do it, I was just lazy before.
BUT ANDREW!! ugh. I put my dishes on the counter NEXT to the sink. When I amready to clean them I fill up the sink and then put them in. ANDREW puts themin the EMPTY sink, then during the course of the day will go and get a cup of water,or run the water,etc. So that when I go and do the dishes (god forbid he would do themon a regular basis, Although he has been know to do them every so often) its all gross, and stinky, and BAH!
YOU WANNA KNOW MY PET PEEVE, THEN THATS IT! BAAAARRF!
Anyway.
so,aside from getting my shopping semi done, being proud of doing things I should be doing to begin with, and gaining weight, my week has been pretty boring.
How was yours??
