So.. I haven't updated in a while.. like always. Right now I'm enjoying all my free time. Soon my friends who aren't at MCC will be going back to school so I'm gonna be lonely. At least I'll get to maybe go to Nazareth to visit Melissa. Oh yea.. and I need to send the security guy a letter now so that I'm allowed back on the campus haha. I feel like I haven't talked to Melissa in forever. I didn't call her when I really should've. I feel so guilty so I'm afraid to call her. But I know she's really forgiving so hopefully she will be this time too.
Anyway... I'll be applying to Nazareth this week. I'm really nervous because I have to send in 2 essays this time and I'm not the greatest writer. I hope they don't look too much at that while deciding. I should know within a few weeks since it's on a rolling basis. I'm only applying there I think.. So I need to get the answer back quickly so if I don't get in, I can still apply to other colleges. If I end up not getting in though I'll prolly just end up going to MCC for another semester so I'll have enough credits to graduate from there and then apply again to Naz the next semester.
My dad wants me to go to a SUNY school.. And I know it's the smart thing to do since it's so much cheaper. But I just don't know. I loved Naz when I went there. And they have music so I can minor in it. Most other colleges that I looked at didn't have that. Fredonia is too far away. I loved the college but I really think that Edwin and I have something special and I don't wanna lose him from the distance. I'm thinking of looking into Brockport or Oswego though. They're not too far. I love Kim's college but it doesn't have music and it's a little too far also. I just don't think that I'd feel comfortable going anywhere other than Naz since I've been there before and I'm gonna be a trasfer student. If I go to Naz I don't think I'd feel like a transfer student.. The other day someone asked me what college I go to and Naz slipped out... I was like "I mean MCC" haha.. I was embarassed but I still feel like I go there.. I'm just on a break. :)
Edwin and I are really perfect together. I can't tell him enough how much I love him and love is the greatest thing in the world. I can't see myself with anyone else. He is "mi amor" haha. He really is amazing. I'm so greatful that we found each other. I'm lucky to have such a great guy with all the jerks that are in the world. Edwin supports me and we understand each other. I can talk to him about anything.. sometimes even more than what I can tell my friends. He makes me want to be a better person which I think is really great! Sometimes I wish I could just do all the bad stuff college students do and not worry about anyone else. But I know even though sometimes I feel that way, it's good that being with him keeps me good for the most part.
Anyways... School starts again January 22nd. I'm excited that I only have one more semester at MCC. I guess I don't dislike MCC that much. I just know that the less semester I have at MCC, the sooner (hopefully) I'll be at Naz.
I went to a Nutritionist finally. I learned a lot and I'm really excited to be eating healthy and excersizing. She said that the ideal weight for my body and height is about 135. I wanted 130 so I'm glad it's possible. She said that I should be eating 1800 calories!!! I know it seems like a lot. I was shocked too. And it sucks because something I always can say truthfully to people about my weight is I don't eat a lot. Now people are gonna see how much I'm gonna be eating and be like "Oh that's why she's overweight. My mom told me not to worry about what other people think so I'll try to do that. I'm still a little confused about what I'm supposed to be doing because it's all new to me. I'm supposed to eat a lot to lose weight. It speeds up your metabolism I guess. And if you eat too little, your body thinks it's starving itself or isnt sure when the next meal will be so it holds it as fat. She said to eat 6 times a day. 3 meals and 3 snacks. I'm supposed to be eating lots of carbs which seems weird to me too! But it's supposed to be the good carbs like whole wheat. I'm supposed to get low fat food as much as possible.. the more natural the food, the better. And little sugar. And she said this is how I need to eat all the time. She said that humans screw up and not to get upset if I do. I'm allowed to eat unhealthy once in a while or I'll go crazy. And as long as it is in moderation, and it's not multiple times a week then it's fine. I'm also supposed to excersize 45 minutes a day 3-5 times a week.. and do palates or yoga once or twice. I figure the more excersize the better so I'm gonna try to do it everyday... 2 of the days doing my palates tape.
So if anyone wants to lose weight ^^^ read that.
