Uhhhhhh
wow,
you guys. Umm... Where do I start?
Well,
I can always start with declaring that I have never
been so run-into-the-ground busy
like I have been the past few weeks.
Things
were fine until I finally got hired for a part-time job.
(It's
a cashiering job, seasonal, through February. Maybe not the best I
could have gotten, but I'd been scouting since summer and not only
did they interview me, but they practically hired me on the spot.
That's gold, you guys.)
I'm
not complaining about having income – I like having income more
than I like not having income.
But
I know things (such as getting all my homework and studying done that
I need to on
time)
would be a lot easier if I didn't lose three days in a row to
six-seven hour shifts...
Somehow,
I'm doing it. But I have a physics exam on Tuesday that I have not
been able to study for because I've been working on other things,
and, well. I feel like I might do okay after a recap of all things
physics that we've done this semester, which does happen to be
occurring in lecture tomorrow, so...
And
then on Friday I have a paper due that was set for Wednesday, and I
was this
close
to not
getting that meager extension because we've had almost a month
already to work on it.
Really,
it was kind of useless to ask for until Monday or something, for
that, cos I work Saturday through Monday. I've got a pretty good
start on my physics lab writeup that'll be due Thursday, and the
chemistry lab writeup won't be due until the Thursday after that.
Don't
even ask me about my biology homework that really hasn't been
touched,
and it's due in two weeks, and I've had nearly a month now to work on
that.
Guys,
this is the size of my life right now, and it's stuffed to
overflowing with homework.
(Who
am I addressing when I say "you guys"? I don't know.
Certainly not the huddled masses. Holla if you read! Or maybe not –
I may become self-conscious.)
On
that note, um, I have a Fitblr now, if anyone's incredibly curious
for updates on my fitness journey (tied in with my AdvoJourney since
I started on Performance Elite products back in September); that's a
far better place to get updates. I'm not able to work out as much
anymore cos I just have so much to do, but I'm fortunately 90% of the
time able to eat very clean (I'm sort of at the mercy of what SMU decides to serve me, most of the time, and though they've gotten a lot better about allergen labeling on the entrees and such, it's still not quite perfect), and MNS-C among other products are
helping to keep my eating habits under control, so I don't want to
eat any more than I actually need to. Yay.
That
said: nearly two months of working out, plus AdvoCare, and you guys;
I have muscle tone all over my body for the first time in my life.
You don't know how spectacular that is to me.
I
don't yet have the definition
that I'm seeking, but that will come in time. There are still
seven-nine months until the weather will be warm enough for tank tops
and shorts again, and I will definitely
be ready for it this time!
I
am going to do this. I'm going to actually do this. I'm so excited.
So,
yeah; classes and homework, work, and working out when I can squeeze
it in. Holy crap, that's a lot of applications of "work."
That's
my life. I don't think I love it. But I'm gonna get through it.
Until
next time.
Take
care!
