Good bye, 2007. I won't miss you. This next year is going to be full of money, health, and new presidents.
I graduate this term, and will probably go back for my bachelor's in graphic design after taking a term off. First, though, I will make some money, which will be amazing. I can't believe I've spent so long being this broke.
I've been going to the gym, and hope to lost 40 pounds in 3 months, in time for graduation. It seems lofty, but I know it can be done. It's just a matter of whether or not I can motivate myself to make the time to stick to it. I'm doing my best to stick to a diet and hope my combined efforts start paying off soon.
I fainted the other night after standing up from sitting down. These things happen sometimes to people, and I'm certainly not the first person I know to have done that, but it's scary nonetheless. I was by myself and woke up with a minor black eye, and scrapes on my face. It's frightening to think what could have happened if my head had hit something else before I hit the ground with nobody there.
This happened on a strange night where I also cut my fingers twice with different objects and broke my favorite glass in the sink on accident. I can't wait to get the ball rolling a little faster on my health. I have an appointment with a neurologist on the 21st, and it will be interesting to see how many holes are in my brain. In 1999 there were none, despite my diagnosis from the lumbar puncture. It could look like swiss cheese by now, for all I know.
Angie turned me on to
43 Things, which is awesome and everyone should do. It's perfect for the brand-new, better-than-last-year New Year.
