Once again, I just got finished doing some upper body work. I do 50 biceps curls, 50 hammer curls, 50 triceps dips, 50 kickbacks, 50 lateral raises in front, and 60 to the side. I may repeat that one more time tonight cos I am getting stronger. It may be time to increase the weight. Not sure though. I do want to just tone though. So maybe lots of reps, and adding in reps and sets will help.
I'm still drinking a gallon of water a day. Which means I've been doing it for over a week. Yesterday I drank 18-19 glasses. So that's more than a gallon. I've been doing half just water and half watered down crystal light. Just for flavor. Been thinking about watering down the crystal light even more. But the problem is then I'll be able to taste my tap water which tastes like shit. Why is my computer being all slow to type this? I'll have to reboot once I'm done or something, cos I need to do homework tonight and I can't have it freezing up on me like it always does when I use blackboard.

Anyways, the Phils may clinch their division tonight. I'm so hoping they do. I'll do a little dance around my room if they do! Hehe. I'm so excited. I wish I was going to tonight's game. I'm sure they'll be busting out the champagne tonight in the locker room. =) Fun times.

Not much else is doing on, except that I'm in the middle week of my Stat course. So I'm almost halfway there. Then I think I have another Psychology course, but I have to check. It's just about time to order my book though for it. I have to have my mom order it though. She kinda banned me from Amazon after I spent 80 some dollars on books. But I have been reading them. Actually, no I haven't. I've been reading the ones I got at the bookstore. Well, my next one I'll read from the ones I got off of Amazon. I've been flying through books lately.

I'm listening to Delerium right now, but may turn it off to read a bit more. I'm trying to read like 100 pages a day. And I left a book at my parent's house to read for strictly when I'm there. I left a book called "Dear Prince Charming" there. It's funny, just like the one I'm reading now by Marian Keyes called "Rachel's Holiday." Anyways, time for me to get to reading now. Thanks for reading!

ps- this Delerium album is good...

Lalalalala...

I just got done doing some upper body exercises. I really don't feel upto doing anything else today. That's 5 days of some sort of activity. I've been drinking a gallon of water a day lately. I suppose it will help. I'm not convinced yet. A friend asked if I felt better cos of it, and I didn't want to say no, but the truth is, no I don't. I'm just peeing a lot more. Like you needed to know that.

Anyways, I'm in Stat and got back my first assignment from last week and got full credit for the two posts. I didn't really know what to respond to my classmates so I just wrote really whatever.

My neighbor has been using my treadmill. She lost 7 lbs in a week and a few days. She walks a lot too. Me... I had lost 3 lbs, now the scale is being weird and fluctuating. I think it's because of all the water. I need to increase my workouts or something. Even though I am eating mostly veggies and smart ones dinners and stuff. And drinking all that water. I don't know what to do really. I'll ask my nutritionist I guess. Maybe I need to cut something out.

*************************************************************************************
I just watched Vampire Diaries and Supernatural. I thought Supernatural was kinda a bland episode till the ending when Lucifer showed up. I was like, oh no way! Bill was right, it's brother against brother. Craziness. When I first started watching this show I never expected this. Any of this. Just so good.

Anyways, I gotta get a shower and wash my hair. It really needs some deep conditioning. I bleached it last week. I need to condition it at least a few times a week now. Thanks for reading!

I've either been watching too much TV or it's time for me to write a story that will be unfinished, unpublished and everything else that goes along with my stories. Maybe after I post this blog I'll write it. Won't take me long.

Anyways, I don't get it. I go to bed at like 3-330 AM and I sleep till like 2-3pm... I go to sleep at midnight, and I wake up at 5am and can't get back to sleep... what is wrong with my body? It does not want to sleep properly, even with all the sleeping pills. I popped another Ativan b/c even if I took Elavil now I wouldn't wake up till probably Vampire Diaries was on and I want to work out and I have to do homework tomorrow, er today. So blah. I was looking at people's pics on facebook and it's such a small world. I feel like everyone in my friends went to this wedding of a local family in Blue Bell or whatever and I am friends with them on facebook but never actually talked to them. Weird huh? Anyways, I'm gonna get more water and write this story. It has a Prologue to it and everything. Haha.

I'm bored again.

I haven't written in about a week, so I figured I would update this a bit. Anyways, I've lost 2 lbs so far in the past week or so. I am happy with that, but also kinda annoyed that my 2nd cousin has posted tagged photos of me on facebook. I know she means well, but I don't want people seeing my fat ass. Anyways, I've decided I'm going to try and workout every day in some way. I've been drinking a lot of water just to flush everything out of my system. And eating a lot of veggies. So that's that on the diet front.

I started my Statistics class today. I'm terrified and I read the guidelines for the final paper and I'm like WTF already... I don't have a clue what I'm going to write about. Or how I'm going to go about writing it. I have a feeling this is how I'm going to feel when I get to graduate school. Like WTF am I doing here? But I figure I'll get it eventually.

Anyways, I don't have much else to say except that Kanye West is a troubled jackass. Thank you president Obama for that.

So precious loving the thrill...

Ah, I don't know where to start, I just feel like I should write a blog. Well, I went to see the nutritionist today and she was happy with what I have been doing. I've been eating lots of veggies and exercising almost daily 4-5 days a week to try to get this weight off. Matt says I look good and that he can tell I've lost weight. I can see a difference too. I can't wait till I'm down to my goal weight.

Anyways, the Phils haven't been doing so well lately. They lost 4 in a row to the Astros because theyre not hitting the ball. The somehow won last night over the Nationals *the worst team in baseball* because of 5 solo homeruns, then Brad Lidge came in to save the game and loaded the bases. Luckily enough, Madson got them out of the jam they were in.

I see my therapist today. I don't have much to talk about except maybe that the guy I was seeing just wants to be friends which I kinda wanted too. In a way I wanted it to work out, but in a way I just couldn't see myself with him. Talking to him is natural for me and stuff, but his inexperience was just kind of daunting for me. I'm not going to go into his personal life or anything like that, because it's not fair to do that, but I experienced a lot while I was at college. Widener University was like my place to learn how to do stuff. And then I was in long term relationships and just learned how to be myself in them. I was crazy, I'll give you that, but those last 6 months with Justin I wasn't crazy at all. We had a good time if it werent for his alcoholism. We got along just fine except for his booze driven rants at me. Which never would have occurred if he was sober. He's sober now, and I miss him. But people are telling me I'm probably better off in the long run. For now I guess I can just have fun with Serial. =) Goddamn is he sexy. I just don't see him as my boyfriend. He's too much of a loner. And I can really see him breaking my heart. I've known him for so long and been into him even while I was with Justin. It was cos of Justin that we didn't continue what started in January. Justin saw us together and got jealous and determined he still loved me and asked me to be his gf again. A little bit of loving down the shore with Serial just isn't enough. That's why I gotta get him to my apartment. =D Oh and one more thing about Serial, I love that he wears boxer briefs... so sexy. YUMMY!

Anyways, enough about boys... guys... men... I think I'm gonna go for my doctorate in Psychology. I can do it all online, well not all of it, I'll have internships to do, but through Capella I can do it. After I graduate from Ashford I'm going to see when I can start. Or maybe in January of my last year at Ashford (2011- I finish in March of that year) I can get myself set up to go there.

Anyways, I'm gonna wrap this up... I want to do a few mins of weight training quick before I have to leave for therapy.

Damsel in Distress

So I am down the shore again. Sorry I haven't written in a while. I've been really busy with schoolwork. But there's some stuff to get caught up on. Well, I just finished a power point presentation about myself for my class. That was easier than I thought it would be. But I have to do a power point presentation for the paper that is due next week or so. I'm gonna write the rough draft of the paper tomorrow. I knew I had a lot of work to do while I was down here. Thankfully I still have the AT&T air card.
Anyways, so my brother's divorce is still going on. And I am so fucking pissed off at that family right now. His ex wife didn't tell my brother when she was terminating her job and when the insurance which he was on when he was married to her would stop. My brother has a severe case of juvenile diabetes. Not the overweight kind, but the kind you can die from from seizures and stuff. My brother relies on insurance in order to get his medication and like a bitch she doesn't tell him when it ended. He had literally days to get back on the insurance. But luckily he is on it. I'm so excited and so is the rest of my family that he is coming home to PA to stay at my parent's house for the first time in 5 years. My dad looked so happy tonight to have his son back. And my brother will be going to my Dad's birthday dinner. I'm going to make it a point to sit near him. I want to fix things with him and even have emailed him offering my apartment for him to stay at in case the cats bug him too much. Pixie doesn't even know him, and Buddy probably doesn't remember him much. My brother never payed much attention to the cats since he's allergic. But I'm excited.
I also went to a Phillies game last Sunday. It was awesome. I think I'll put on some of the music they played at the game now on my ipod since I'm listening to it. First I'm gonna listen to the rest of Britney's Circus album. It's just so good.
I'm going to be seeing my nutritionist again on Wednesday. I'm looking forward to getting some more insight from her. I've been working my ass off working out and stuff but I need some extra help from a professional. I have a fan on twitter who is really pulling for her. She owns the site www.smashfitness.com She's really cool. I also talk to another guy on there who is named Joe and his site is www.workout.com which is a site w/ daily workouts to do. You can modify them to fit your fitness level. It's hard for me to do some things because my boobs are so big. But I'm working on it. Anyways, I could write a ton more, but I should probably get to bed. I was really tired a little bit ago and I kinda want to get to bed so I can go on the beach tomorrow and read. Hopefully I won't get too sunburned. =)
Goodnight.
