20 things about me

1.) I actually don't mind going to the dentist.
2.) I never wanted to live in Utah for more than a year...Hello year 5!
3.) I am jealous of my sister but we haven't been as close as we are now. I love her and can't picture my life without her.
4.) I hate Utah drivers. On the freeway, people in the middle lane are always trying to get off. People in the fast lane are going slow and people in the slow lane are going at break neck speeds because of the idiots in the other 2 lanes. Psh...they're all idiots.
5.) I love buying new shoes but I hate the actual act of shopping. Something about hordes of idiot shoppers and clueless employees turns me off to the whole idea of "retail therapy". Go figure...
6.) I hated the years proceeding my mothers death. People thought they had to walk on egg shells around me, my family situation was hell, and I didn't want to deal with any of it. So more often than not, I ran away from it all and found myself either in L.A. or on Long Island, NY. Now that I've dealt with it, I'm in Utah of all places.
7.) I hate being the center of attention but hate it even more when people forget about me.
8.) I like the idea of living in a small town but hate the thought of people knowing everything about you. I like my privacy and I must have the option of showing my true colors on my own time without people constantly watching you.
9.) I don't know if I could ever handle being pregnant and bringing home a brand new baby. It scares me.
10.) I love the fall and wish it was cool/cold enough year round so I could wear sweaters and thick wool socks. I want to spend my fall season in New England and every other season in the Pacific Northwest.
11.) I'm a realistic hopeless romantic.
12.) I feel socially awkward more often than not even though I come from a hugely social family. I come off far cooler than I actually feel most of the time.
13.) I don't want to work for the rest of life but I know that if I don't have something to do, I'll get bored.
14.) I really want to get paid to travel and take cool photos of places I've visited. Some day...
15.) I want to be and do a great many things and often feel that time is running out to accomplish them all.
16.) It makes me smile inside when I get a real smile from Bryan.
17.) I like Bryan...crazy I know. I went from liking his older brother last summer to liking him this year.
18.) I think that the people whom you love most can hurt you worse but also be your saving grace more often than they hurt you.
19.) I hate wearing shoes. As much as I love wearing woolly socks during the fall and winter, I absolutely hate wearing shoes. Give me sandals any day!
20.) As much as I like working with people, they irritate the crap out of me more often than not.

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just

Slowly but surely

The weight loss has slowed just a little. I've only lost roughly 3 pounds this week. But I am determined to lose at least 80 pounds by my birthday. It's a tall order that's for sure. I have about 34 days to do it. I have to lose 2.4 pounds a day to surpass my goal by a little over than a pound. I suppose I'll have to be more diligent on my diet and exercising. I won't be disappointed if I come close though. The whole point of me going on any sort of exercise/diet plan is to get healthy and to get ready for Hawaii. I refuse to fly on a plane at my current weight. Mostly because I don't want to be embarrassed if I have to get a seat belt extender. I don't want to. I refuse to be one of those people that have to get special accommodations because of my weight just to fly. I think that I've come a long way from how I ate and exercised before. I pretty much look forward to my walks every day and I don't crave soda anymore. I actually had about 4 ounces of
