(no subject)
So today I went shopping and for the first time in a long time I was able to find jeans, two pairs, that fit me nicely and I was able to get them in a normal teenage store - Delias. I havent had that much luck in so long and I am so happy that I've decided to take hold of my life, and my weight and finally have control. I know I am only down 6lbs as of right now, but it feels great. I noticed a difference in myself and I feel more comfortable in my clothes.
My goal for this summer is to not gain any weight (by more than a lb) and to lose at least 15 lbs by the start of school, which leaves me roughly 7 weeks. Since I am already down 6 lbs I have 9 to go, and I think that's a very reasonable goal. I don't want to suffer when I get older. I don't mind being a little overweight, I don't see that as a problem, but where I am at right now as healthy as I may seem (blood pressure and cholesterol are normal) they may not be in the years to come if I continue the way I was.
My summer so far has been good - On a scale of one to ten, ten being the highest, I'd give it a 7.. Okay, maybe a 6.5. Slightly above average at best, but at least I am seeing my best friends (most of them) and attempting to get out when I can. I feel like work is hindering that because I basically work doubles all weekend and I have the Monday night closing shift now, which rocks but it definitely cuts down on the opportunity to see friends that I haven't seen in a while. I try and put in the effort when I can but sometimes I don't feel its reciprocated. I feel like I am always the one to drive everywhere and it's annoying - I try and make plans but it either falls through because a) I don't feel like driving everywhere after work, usually I am too tired to and thats my fault and my fault only and with gas prices the way they are, driving gets more and more unappealing. and b) half the time when I do make plans they fall through (mainly with allegra).. I know its hard to constantly try and fit people in with schedules and stuff like that but I feel like Jess is really the only person that there is equal amounts of effort going on... Molly's getting there too. I am just extremely excited to have the both of them home for a while - I missed them a lot while they were both at school and shit just wasn't the same.
August 16th I'm taking a little trip down to Coney Island because its the last season that it's open. I've never ever been so Jess and I decided it was a must do for the summer. I'd love to go somewhere other than 3 hours away and in New York but I can't afford it.
My other goal for the rest of the year is to get my credit card debt down - My best buy only has about 4 and change left on it and my actual credit card has a ways to go before I am comfortable with where it's at.
My other other goal is to figure out what I am actually majoring in. This fall will be the tell all in what I decide to do - Either finance, or pick a BS major and just go with the flow and get a degree in my hand for the moment. I can't waste anymore time and anymore of my money dilly dallying around. (Haha, dilly dallying) Once I do that, I want to start saving my money, think about transferring to a different college with more notoriety and get an apartment. Preferably with Jessica because I don't think she's going back to Ithaca, at least I hope. She may or may not go back in the spring to get her GPA up to be in a better position to transfer but we'll see.
I saw a journey cover band the other night and they were so good. The lead singer, Hugo, looked just like Steve Perry... like, splitting image. Honestly I'm glad I went to see them and not journey the actual band because apparently they have an asian singer. Weird?
I need to start reading more. That's another goal. What else... Oh, I cant wait to buy clothes. Tons and tons of cute clothes. =)
And cut.
