Don't burn the day away

Goals for the summer (to be accomplished by the end of August):

-Lose 30 pounds
-Save 500 dollars (May not seem like a lot of money, but one has to consider the fact that my savings acount is virtually always around zero.)
-Have a diploma and at least two classes set up for the fall
-Know at least one song on the guitar
-Learn something new every week
-Write one letter (and SEND IT OUT) once a week
-Listen to one new song/band every week
-Do not physically harm my sister because her keyboard at work is so frickin' loud and the speed with which she enters data is of superhero proportions and hearing the constant rapid fire is slowly eroding at every single one of my nerves.

Ahem.

Okay, that last one really isn't a goal for the summer. Just for today.

I'm annoyed because I know there was another goal I wanted to list up there but I can't remember it right now. My brain is utterly useless.

I'm going to assume it wasn't important.

Most of these goals suck. I'd like some ginormous goal that no one would think I'd ever complete and then ... complete it.

Anyway, that's all I can think of right now.

Over Memorial Day weekend I hung out with my cousins and good times were had. And now that we're in touch again, I plan on keeping it that way.

It's odd, because I miss them retroactively. Those several years we had apart, during them, I thought about these guys sporadically but didn't really let myself miss them or think too much about anyone from my mom's side of the family. But when I look back on those years now, and the great time we had over the weekend, I think about how much better my life would have been with them in it.

::shrug:: I'm not going to dwell on it, especially since we're hanging out again.

In fact, I have a ton of plans for the summer. It's delicious.

But this weekend coming up, I've got nothing social planned. The NC trip drained all of my funds and after seeing the NC trip pictures, I'm not feeling too social this week anyway. I've only gained a little bit of the weight back, since slipping a bit on my fitness routine, but it looks like I've gained a lot more. Especially in my face. AUGH.

So, this week shall be all about the gym and the strict diet. This week is about being a fanatic and scaring all of my friends with my crazy work out fervor. Or at least, that's the plan.

I'm going to the gym right after work and I'll be there for at least two hours. And I plan on doing that every day of this week. And eating only one meal with bread, the rest all veggies and fruit and whatnot. And nothing but water. And this weekend, I'm just going to live at the gym. And maybe take a run around the neighborhood, too. And other than that, I've got some boxes to go through and books to read and I'm gonna head to the library to learn something random(see my list of goals).

Next weekend, I'll be going up to Ludlow on Friday, to have a picnic in the park and see The Terminal. And Saturday and Sunday, I'll be hanging out with my cousins. So, I'll just look forward to those plans, as I kick my own ass into gear.
