Birfday Mesh!
I have about an hour left until my birthday is "officially" over. I must say though that I didn't quite expect my birthday to turn out all that grand, given the circumstances and my money, but you knooow what, it actually did turn out pretty nice.
I won a few things through the lottery, a couple of shirts, had some cake and ice cream and pretty much counted the day bless when I landed a moonstone gem on Bejeweled. It isn't quite how people out in Cali celebrate their birthday, given that Las Vegas is the place to be, but for me it was adequate. :3 I find myself fortunate for the things I have and work hard for the things I don't. Not to mention having a busy schedule and school kind of makes it a little difficult to just leave the city. xD
Lol.. So with that all said, I'll say I'm about two days late for posting for Week 3. I haven't forgotten, in fact quite a few things happened in between Sunday and Monday, but I'll just roll with the basics.
I didn't make any progress, but well, I haven't gained weight either which is just a well good. I haven't had the energy to really 'commit' time to work out, but found that I have been walking a mile to class, given the extreme construction blocking the front entrance. Its an inconvienance but I use it to my advantage.
And I got to talking with a friend, let's say, who has opted in to work-out with me. So aside from livejournal, sparkpeople and well.. Any other 'online' site, I actually have a real person I can be accountable too. It has motivated me in volumes and we even went on a jog to the peer just yesterday.
Still, reporting in after you had birthday cake and bbq can be a bit of lie, but I logged in all my calories [as brutual as that was for me] and knew that by tomorrow I'd be back on schedule/track with my goals. Applying things from paper [say calorie restriction] to in the real, can be a little hard, but I've got the determination. And look forward for week 4, in hopes that I have some more 'positive' news.
At las I'm exhausted, so I'm heading to bed to feel fresh and easy in the mornin'!
