Halfway through! Day 4. May 8, 2008

I woke up this morning and got on the scale.  137.  I lost approximately 10 pounds in 4 days. 
I had a very long day.  Support group meeting. Working out. Matlab programming. Mime practicing. Grocery shopping.
I am pooped!  Therefore this post is going to be shorter than normal.
I have noticed that my sweat isn’t really ’sweaty’.  I [...]

Devil, you failed with a capital F! May 7, 2008

You can not take my sister away from me.  Don’t you know she is a child of GOD?!?!  How dare you try?  You will not win.  The gates of hell shall not prevail against God’s Kingdom EVER!
Thank you God for being so INCREDIBLE! You are TRULY an on time GOD.  I am fully aware that [...]

Detox Program. Day 3 May 7, 2008

I never did update about the rest of my progress on yesterday.  I came up 2 cups short of my goal.  I didn’t drink my last bottle of water (which would have satisfied the remaining 2 cups).  I had 2 cups of spinach juice and called it a night.  The spinach juice…well rather FROTH…was prepared [...]

My first detox program! Day 1. May 5, 2008

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I decided to start a detox program by going on a vegetable/fruit juice diet. Lord, give us strength to make it through this whole day! We are trying to do this for at least a week.  We took before pictures to compare them to the after pictures next Sunday.  This morning [...]

I just wish Saturdays would NEVER end… May 3, 2008

Sometimes I think of a Saturday being that cozy little pit that you have longed for the entire week to hop in and dread to get out as you head towards the next week. 
I just want to stay in this cozy pit for a few more days…*sighs*
I guess I will sop up as much of the day [...]

Helping with Habitat for Humanity April 26, 2008

Talking about an early day today!  How about getting up at 6:45am on a Saturday morning (and being a college student)?  But it was all for a good cause.  The Southside college ministry helped with the Habitat for Humanity Organization from 8-12pm today.  Personally I have always wanted to volunteer in helping build an affordable [...]

Thankful Thursday April 24, 2008

Whew! It has been quite a busy week. One more day until the weekend, which will be busy as well. Some people live paycheck to paycheck but I live weekend to weekend. Yesterday I had my LAST TA office hours EVER (at least for now maybe). This is the last week of classes at school [...]

180 in a matter of hours… April 22, 2008

This morning started off on a slightly bad foot.  Last night, my mom and I had a small misunderstanding about my graduate school experience and why I am STILL not finished with my degree.  I just wish she would understand that I can’t guarentee a set date to be finished because research is research.  There [...]

How to Handle A Storm April 6, 2008

It has been a LONG time since my first post. 
I have been troubled with some personal storms in my life for awhile now.  I say I have three major storms going on right now but my main one of the three is getting done with grad school.  I have been in graduate school for almost [...]
