I desperately want a personal trainer like the ones on The Biggest Loser.

Anyway:

My grandmother's birthday was today and I went over to her house with some flowers to wish her a happy one.  She wasn't there so I phoned my Mom hoping maybe she knew of my grandmother's whereabouts.  I talked to my Mother for a few minutes on the phone when my ( Read more... )

 Things to do in the near future to push myself forward:

• Get back into working.
• Take some classes next semester - preferably language classes.
• Take up a new type of exercise (I'm thinking fencing).
• Expand my resources. (done)
• Get a regular schedule going concerning waking up, going to sleep, cleaning, etc.

It's been quite some time since my last public post so I figured I'd just go ahead and do a brief update of what's been going on bullet-point style:

The pros:

• My roommate kicks ass, takes names, and rips phone books in half like a mighty warrior.  No need for an alarm system here.
• I'm going to London for my birthday... it's decided.
• I only have one more shift to work at Barnes & Noble and, when I don't work there any more, I can still exploit Rachel's discount.
• I'm making just enough money that I ( Read more... )

I planted seeds today. Chamomile, jasmine, and alyssum. They are in tiny little pots on my window ( Read more... )

Hello world.

My ApartmentI got a hamster from Parkland College a little while back. I named him "Samwise". He's very smart for a hamster. I like him ( Read more... )

I don't have a computer, so I haven't had a chance to update until now ( Read more... )

Math is so much easier when you don't miss massive amounts of school.  More than that, math is so much easier when you're healthy enough to pay attention in class.  Glad I got that out.

So Villa Caffe opens up on the thirtieth of September and I don't really feel prepared to work there, yet.  Ninety percent of our "training" so far has been us ( Read more... )
