At this very moment, I am soaring. I aced the math exam. I played a lot of bass. I changed my workout to accomodate more abdominal exercises, and I'm more than motivated to work on it. I've been going to the rec at least 3 times a week every week since school started, so I'm undoubtedly deep into an exercise program. I'm going to change my eating habits because my meal plan is running low, and because I haven't lost much weight as of late... There is no turning back. I can bring my grades up, and get into my major. Come the end of the year, I will be officially a journalist. My hair will be longer. My bodily acne will be fully cleared up. I will be much more fit. Dumb as it sounds, I feel as METAL as I've ever been. I want to up the irons this summer - save for leather pants, search for sleeveless jean-jackets at thrift stores... get my ears pierced, and possibly a small tattoo on my arm. I'm thinking ... the "Operation: Mindcrime" symbol. Don't get me wrong, I'll still stay clean-cut on a professional standpoint - earrings can be removed, tattoos can be covered up, and hair can be tied back. I wouldn't be going all out with the piercings. It would be the subtle stuff that I'm comfortable with, and it wouldn't be out of character for me to do so. Of course, there is the taboo of self-mutilation associated with Judaism, but ... I'm reformed.
I cannot even describe how happy I am with myself at this moment. I don't mean to sound like a pompous ass, for those of you who know me, I am very humble. I am just very pleased at the moment... so I'm going to shut up now.
