So I decided to take a break from my research and update my little journal here. :-) Not to say that the research isn't interesting. I feel like such a nerd. Reading about Kafka and dark humor. My rough draft is due Thursday. For this 10-page research paper. But I'm enjoying it, so that makes it all the more bearable.
I felt very proud of myself today. I ran the perimeter (around UCLA) which is apparently around 4 miles. I really need to get back in shape. College really hasn't been great for that...late night eating...spending a lot of time at Nick's apartment and eating with the guys....alcohol..."unlimited food"...it's hard. And then it's also really hard to eat healthy in the dining halls. So many empty carbs and fried foods. And the salad bar is okay. But not great.
Finding time to exercise is hard too. Especially when I got sick and my knee was really bothering me in the beginning of the year. And so it looks like I've gained about 10 pounds :-/. I'm going to lose it again. I know that I can. I did it before. I want to get my waist down to 25-26 inches. I think that's better than just to think of pounds. And I know that I can do it. I just have to keep watching what I eat and working out.
