ambitious, or just apt to procrastination?
i have got to stop being so lazy! in order to accomplish this i think i will set a few goals for myself, mainly in the form of boycotting certain things, as those are the sorts of goals i tend to keep best.
1-i am going to stop eating any and all forms of meat. this is challenging mainly due to my schedule, and the fact that meat (mainly fast-food 'pseudo-meat') is sort of a fallback for me.
2-i am going to get ahead on my reading. this may only be accomplished by starting to do such things on weekends.
3-i will lose at least 10 pounds. preferably from my thighs and sides (how i got fat sides, i've no idea) so that my size 4 jeans will fit comfortably. this will render my size 6 jeans useless, but most of them are wearing out anyway.
4-i am quitting pepsi. for good this time. it makes me feel like a crack-addict, and that is unacceptable.
5-i will save my money, only purchasing things that are integral to my happiness (or things that are most likely stolen and are thus sold at discount prices online, like my new bluetooth headset that i bought for a mere $30)
6-i will make better use of my time. refreshing the same website all day is NOT productive.
7-i will stop wasting groceries...and buy all my produce from wild oats because then it won't be BAD by the time i get it home.
8-instead of going out to grab food, i will only buy items from the following locations: jamba, starbucks, einstein's, or occasionally la salsa. this excludes any meetings with friends or free meals provided by my family.
that's all for now, except that i have to write my 1500-2000 word essay for my italian cinema class...by tomorrow, at 2:30. or really, before that unless i plan to work on it at work. yet another example of why i need to do homework on the weekend. but not last weekend. i wouldn't have given that time up for the world. my friends come first. and if that means i have to get a 'B' or two, then so be it. and if i can still pull off 'A's then that just proves how spectacular i really am.
p.s. unless something stellar comes up in october (and it probably will...) i will most likely not be in phoenix. but let me know anyway. we all know i can't say 'no' to my friends...
