Hate it...

So I really really hate the word hate, but I hate stress.

I don't know many people that enjoy it, however.

Apartment life = basically hell. But, what can ya do? Only a few more silent months and I'm done with it.

New Year's Resolution: Not to have a resolution. Mainly so I don't break ANOTHER one. Even though I really feel confident about this whole losing weight and being healthy thing. Have a physical with my doctor on Thursday and I'm going to ask her about some guidance in the right direction to make sure I stay there. I have A LOT of weight to lose, but if I stick with it, I know I can do it. It'll be a slow process, but totally worth it.

1 PM class was canceled...definitely a nice thing. The weather here is yuck. Looked out my window and instantly felt my winter depression kicking in. Thank Heavens for fire engine red nails...bright colors (and red in particular) always makes me feel better.

Well, I probably should get some work done. Have a few phone calls to make and then need to start working on these pesky review sheet for my first exam on Thursday.

Well...

Well...despite what I said in my last blog...I'm not stopping being friends with the person who will be referred to as RB (short for Roommate's Boyfriend). I'm not going to lose one of my best friends because of his girlfriend's insecurities. Those are problems she needs to figure out, not me. I know what I want out of life and who I want in that life.

On to a lighter topic...Griffins game tonight!!!! With RB and BFF. I'm SUPER stoked!! :) <3 hockey!!

Well, I need to wake up and get motivated. Blah.

Adios, Blogger!!

Hmm...

Not really sure what I'm going to blog about today...

Not really sure who is going to read whatever I blog about today...

The new semester starts in 6 days...not entirely sure I'm ready for it to. I've really enjoyed this whole sleeping in thing. But I've been SO bored that I think the semester will be good for me.

Speaking of the new semester, I have to go buy my textbooks today. There goes around $400. Thank goodness for Financial Aid that pays for these books. Maybe I'll actually read the books this semester?

Hopefully, this semester won't be awkward. Apparently, my roommate and her boyfriend (who I am friends with) are having MAJOR problems and it might affect some plans that the boyfriend and I have made, hockey wise. It's been wonderful having a friend as passionate about the sport as I am, someone I could talk to until the wee hours of the morning about random hockey related topics, but if it's going to cause a big riff in the relationship and make my home life hell, there is NO way that we're going to continue with the plans we've made. Love them both dearly, but they definitely make things stressful around here with all the fighting.

Retaking a criminal justice class this semester. From 6-8:50 on a Thursday night. Oy. Once I pass this one, three more to retake and then I can officially change my major. CJ just isn't for me. It's interesting, but not the field I want to work in for the rest of my life.

This whole wanting to be a psychologist thing (something I've wanted for the past few months) is interfering with wanting to be a teacher (something I've wanted my whole life) and I'm not entirely sure what I want. Do I stick with what I've loved and what I've wanted to do since I was 6? (Which is teaching and watching the most rewarding thing in the world, when a child finally figures something out and their whole face lights up) Do I go another route and delve into a lifestyle of depressed/troubled patients and my attempt to pull them out and give them a better life? Anyone who might read this, I'm always open to input. Let me know what you think.

Well, I shall sign off now...things to do, books to buy and people to see.

Ciao, Blogger!
