Winter Term

Well, I am almost through my first week of winter term. It's going to be a lot of fun, I just know it! I am really enjoying my philosophy class. Right now, it's more history than philosophy though. We are studying "privacy" in the Constitution and what not. We have been reading dissenters from Grsiwold v. Connecticut and Brown v. The Board of Education. Anyways, I have found that you get used to waking up early.


I am also so proud that I have managed to run THREE days in a row. I know it doesn't seem like much, but it is. Today I woke up really sore, but then by the end of my shower I started to feel better. I have been working out and watching what I eat. I have been trying to eat more fruits and veggetables. I have found that with me, I need to eat every few hours, otherwise I go crazy!! I found thath Odwalla drinks are good, although you have to watch the calories in those, but they help. And I love soy nuts, and celery. Random, but it's working. I have also found that carrying around my water bottle helps work wonders too. I have cut out coffee and caffiene all togethe and am feeling pretty good.


Math is going well also. I really enjoy it. I am very happy though for this weekend. I am ready to just sit and not do anything. I MIGHT go out tonight since my friend turned 21 on Tuesday, but we'll see. I might go out and just hang out with her. Drinking alcohol definitely doesn't help with losing weight or saving money. Ahh, although I have found to have healthy stuff and other snacks are somewhat expensive also. Oh well...it's better to spend that money on food and getting in shape, than booze, lol. I'll still probably go out and take pictures and get dressed up with her.


Anyways, I have to get going to math; it's at 11. I have to drop off my brother in Union for Basketball first though, then head into La Grande for class. OMG, I bought a parking permit for EOU yesterday, it made me very excited. I also got a new student ID card so I can get into the gym, lol. So I'm seeing the cutest thing right now...my brother holding Brittney : ) Oh my goodness it's adorable. He's making silly faces and blowing raspberries at her and she's smiling. Anyways, gotta run! xoxox

2010

2010 came in with a bang! Woo hoo, New Year's Eve was definitely a lot of fun! I must say that I have the greatest friends in the world! I don't think anyone can understand it. I love Maegan and Darcy. Ooo, I am very happy to be reconnecting with Darcy again!! She is wonderful and I have missed her much. And Maegs and I, well we've pretty much been best friends since we got past disliking each other, lol. Don't worry, that was year's ago!


But yes, it was a great time! I even got to do the champagne toast at midnight. Although I must say, I still don't much care for it. I do believe it is an aquired taste. I am also so thankful for my wonderful family for babysitting : )


So tomorrow is the first day of classes again. I got back from Boise with my family and I realized that I actually had to get school notebooks! I am actually taking two classes that require paper...versus staff paper in theory. Ahh, I'm very excited. Even if I have philosophy at 8AM. Whew! It'll be good for me. A good schedule will be fabulous for all of us! Oh man, I can't wait. Well I really need to prepare Brittney's schedule for Maegan's mom :) Love you all and hope you had a great New Year's!!! Happy 2010!!!
