oooo
My original tentative plan for exercising was to run every other day (MWF-Sat) and maybe get in at least a day with free weights. Having started on Wednesday, so far I'm on track with the running. If I can keep it up for two weeks, I can probably keep it up for quite a while. I don't think I've ever even made two weeks of steady exercising before, so that in and of itself will be quite an accomplishment. I'm tired of feeling out of shape though, and while you all know I'm too thin, I'd like to be too thin with at least a little bit of stamina. When I go back to Arizona and breath in my mom's smoke all the time, it'll help. The really cool thing is that even though this is only my second running day, I really did better than I did on Wednesday. How cool is that? Instant results. I think I am beginning to understand why people like to exercise. My sisters know me...how scary is that?
Work today started out really good and kind of ended on a sour note, but I think that was mostly my own deal. I've been really, really good about not being overly moody lately, but today was not one of them I guess. I still don't really feel like talking to anybody, although in an effort to mitigate the isolationism attempt, I will sit down and write a bunch of letters to people tonight sometime.
My only other real goal is to start seriously getting ready for pharmacy school. Yeah, I'm good at what I do and the basics stick with me, but to have a passing chance at getting in (given my lamentable academic record thus far) I am going to have to kick some serious ass on all the standard tests. Which means re-learning (or at least some heavy, heavy reviewing) my chem, o. chem, and biochem is probably a really good idea. So tonight, I will also start doing that. I am trying to develop a study method, but since, in essence, it's at least 2 years of education, I'm having a hard time deciding how I want to do it. So I need to work on that.
Nothing else is really going on - I think I've finally resigned myself to the way things are going to be between Ryan and I. :;shrugs:: It still hurts, of course, and it sucks realizing that someone you've invested so much time in doesn't care much about you anymore, but life needs to go on at some point. I think it's still a long road...but I sense progress and that encourages me. I am so grateful for everyone's support, I really am. ::hugs::
