Well...now that I've updated a little I feel inspired to update a little more.
What's new...
I'm taking 9 hours this semester at UT. I took 12 last fall, and had intended on 12 this spring, but I ended up dropping my statistics class-the homework was taking me 2-3 hours three times a week and I did not want to put myself through that. Last semester was rough-if I wasn't working or at school I was overeating, drinking, and/or smoking to deal with the stress. As of tomorrow I will have gone 100 days without smoking pot or drinking alcohol. Crazy, huh? I haven't gone to meetings or even thought about sobriety or anti-sobriety on a daily basis...just have other things I'd rather be doing. Every now and then when I'm exhausted and just want to zone out I think about smoking but in the end I find something else to do. I'm on campus Monday through Friday and working Thursday through Sunday nights...life is busy. I have been kind of down lately because I don't have much free time or energy to do intense workouts and be *in shape*...but I guess school is my main priority right now. That and saving money. I haven't had a car since December 28, 2010 and it's been okay. I do however now own two motorcycles, a 1981 Yamaha SR185 and a 1974 Honda CB450. I love them and have been learning so much about mechanics! I am being as safe as one can possibly be and taking my time getting comfortable driving around town. I'm a junior at UT now... I'm in the International Honor Society... I'm in the College of Education for Kinesiology and Health Promotion. I want to go to grad school for Exercise Science or Nutrition...something to do with a holistic approach to wellness. I want to move around. I'd like to live in Brooklyn...that's my plan for when I graduate December 2012. I'm saving lots of money now that I don't have a car payment and I'm working more. I'm officially off of community supervision March 19th...didn't fuck up once *knocks on wood*. Overall I'm much better. I'm afraid I'm just wearing myself out lately... always trying to find a balance. I've come a long way and I don't give myself enough credit!!
