Anything but Homework

Hey! So.... today is Monday. yuck yuck yuck for another school week. I meant to post yesterday to keep with the "Sunday" theme, but no such luck. That reminds me, in regards to last week's posting: fail. I didn't really go to the gym at all last week! I was also supposed to go this morning. Fail. I am going tonight though. To Zumba, actually.
So what should I be doing right now? Homework. I have to read something for my Spanish class then write a response to it, but so far I have been doing pretty much anything BUT that. I actually have a lot of reading and stuff to do, but I can't help that it is all just so boring. *sigh* On top of that, I have pretty much not done anything else today either. I mean, I haven't showered or eaten or ANYTHING! Well, my class isn't until 4:30, so I guess I still have time :)

One Sunday

Hi, it is Sunday! I haven't written anything for about 10 days..... I have no idea what to say! lol To start with, it is Sunday! I saw the Green Hornet movie last night (3d) and I really liked it! I was never really into comic books or anything when I was little so to be honest I really had no idea what the story was for the movie beforehand. It was really funny though. Was is interesting is, even though they are normal guys trying to help out and be heros in a round about way, they end up killing a lot of people in the process. I thought it was interesting that neither of the two guys seemed to have any qualms about that. I mean even if a good guy kills a bad guy, they sometimes still have issues with it, but not in this movie!
Anyway, I got home at about 1am and went to bed around 2. This morning I got up at 9:15 and headed to church at 10:00. I started going to this place called C3. They have their service in a Regal Movie Theatre nearby. They have really awesome music and so far I am also a fan of the pastor there. He keeps talking about Plan B.... basically about what happens after our Plan A's in life fail. It is pretty cool stuff. After C3, I went by the Olive Garden with my friends for some soup and breadsticks. yummmmmmm :) I just finished all my homework that is due to day and now......stalling. Uhhgggg, I have to clean my room. It really is a mess and needs to be cleaned, but I just don't wanna! :(
At 4pm I have chapter meeting for Sigma Phi Lambda. Today we are holding elections because we need a new president, so that should be interesting. Afterwords I don't really have anything planned. I was thinking that one of my friends wanted me to take her to see a movie, but she hasn't mentioned it so far today, so I might just come home. Things I need to do: read for classes, clean my room, and go to the gym.
Oh yeah, the gym.... I have decided to loose weight. Well, I mean, I have been deciding and re-deciding that, but this time I mean it! Each week on Sunday I have decided to weigh myself and then pick a number of pounds that I want to loose that week. Since I am no expert on health or anything, I have no idea what is realistic, but I try my best. :) So this week I have decided to loose 3 pounds. Whatever the number of pounds if that I want to loose, I will also go to the gym at least that amount of times during the week. Cool, right? I think I will even write about it each Sunday to sort of keep me accountable :) I was trying to decide how much weight my ultimate goal should be, but that is a scary number. I think I'm going to shoot for 40 pounds total, but I will probably only try to loose 2/3 per week. Hopefully by the beginning of march I will be almost halfway there, though!
Whew what a day! Average Sunday for me, I would say ;-)  I prefer to keep them pretty relaxing as far as school work is concerned, because I sort of believe Sundays should be spent bettering yourself in some way. I mean, it was set aside as a day to be devoted to God in the bible. I don't think that just because a few thousand years have passed means that we should just forget about that so easily! But anyway, before I ramble into another speech, let's just sever ties again for a bit..... until my next post......
Happy Sunday, everyone!

Million Dollar Makeover

So I walked into Macy's the other day (completely by accident, I might add) and I saw a sign about a Million dollar makeover they are doing and guess who's picture was on the sign..... Clinton's!!! *squee* That's right. 8 lucky people get to win a makeover from What Not to Wear's Clinton! Awesome! I love watching him and Stacy on that show!!!!! Come take me away and give me a whole new wardrobe complete with better hair and makeup! Please and Thank you.
Anyway, so I saw that you sign up on facebook...... and guess what I am doing right noooooooowwwwww! SIGNING UP! It would be so awesome to get a makeover from Clinton! I feel like my clothes and whatever else he wants to update could definitely use a change! And what would be a better time? I mean, 1.) In college! Perfect time for change, right? 2.) Moving to Singapore for at least 6 months.... it would definitely give me a fresh start, right?
okay, well I'm gonna go back to facebook now, just thought I'd share my excitement  :)
(Oh and by the way, don't you DARE see this blog and decide to go enter! My prize! I want it alllllll for myself! lol)

Ahh! It is freezing!!!

Okay, so I'm not sure "freezing" is exactly what it is right now as I sit at home in my room, but I am pretty cold, and I generally just type the first thing that comes to my head when in search of titles. To be fair, since I live in Florida there are many would would say no temperature we ever reach constitutes as "real" cold.... but that is just not true! Every year we get cold enough for snow and stuff, but the other conditions are just never met at the same time! Of course, this only really applies to North Florida (which is where I am now, in Jacksonville). Besides, inside my house, my room is one of the coldest! Burrrrrrr!
Anyway, I am mainly blogging while waiting for my mom to get out of the shower. I am leaving tonight to go back to Orlando because *drum roll* spring semester starts tomorrow! No, I don't really know if that calls for a drum roll, but deal with it! Anyway, I am signed up for 17 credit hours, but I might drop a class depending on the work load. BUT, 4 of them are online, so I really only have actual IN CLASS time on Mondays and Wednesdays! That is pretty awesome, right? I guess..... except the most exciting thing about it is the fact that I can have Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday available for work... which I guess should be exciting because work=money.
I think it is funny the way that people plan their college schedules so differently. I mean, for me I prefer to have to go to campus as few days as possible. Since my high school had the 45 minute classes/5days a week, I feel a lot better going straight through my classes starting at like 10:30 or something and getting down at 6. I know other people, though who intentionally schedule only two classes a day with an hour or two in between so they won't have too much to do in one day. That's cool for them, I guess, but I feel like I'm less motivated to go to class that way. Then there are the people who like early classes, and the other people who prefer night classes... to be honest, I prefer the in-the-middle hours...preferably anything in the 10:30 - 6pm range. Of course, work has a lot to do with people's schedules too. Like for me, I either need to be complete free until 6pm, or completely free after to get a shift during the week. Then you have to calculate in travel between school and work, plus the fact that I didn't feel like giving up 80 bucks for a campus parking pass, before you can really plan a good schedule. Since people don't get scheduled much during school, I prefer to just leave as many days open as possible.
Anyway, I'm going to go grab a sweater and see what my Mom's up to.... till next time!
