Unmotivated

Midnight is approaching far too quickly for me. I should be in bed...you know, practicing the whole "early to bed early to rise" adage. But nope...I am pretty much at the point of rebellion and am putting off retraining myself before school starts. I still can't believe I signed up for classes that start before 10am. Oh well, this fall semester I will be getting out of class before 1pm on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and on Tuesday and Thursday, I'm out before 11:30am. How marvelous it feels to be done with my face to face contact with my soon-to-be-determined-if-they're-boring teachers at a decent hour! (Which reminds me, I need to check what books I need for the fall...this could be a disastrous way to end a perfectly good day.)

Bah. I just completed a Sexual Harassment training for UVU. Oh yeah. I forgot to say that I have a temporary job working in the UVU Bookstore for Fall Book Rush. My chances of staying on may be a little slim. From what my trainer said today, they only kept 2 people from Spring Book Rush and 5 from last fall's Book Rush. There were probably about 50 people there for cashier positions and 30 people for floor positions. So my chances are looking slim. I'm just glad that I'll be able to make a little money for school. Plus, I get a discount. So I'll be buying my UVU sweatshirt and sweat pants before the 2 weeks of Book Rush are up.

...I guess the looking up of books will have to wait till another day.

Oy...I have a headache and its late. I need to sleep. Maybe I'll be motivated and wake up at a decent time tomorrow. :]

It's Okay to Be Sad

I'm sitting in my room nursing a 7-up because I ate too much cheese with my dinner. Being lactose sensitive, edging on completely intolerant, totally sucks. Sometimes dairy doesn't bother my stomach too much, but I guess eating cheese on a completely empty stomach wasn't the greatest idea but damn, that artichoke and spinach cheese dip was delicious. Was it worth it in the end? Meh..I could go either way at the moment. I just had a memory pop up of my first swig of raw cow milk. It was delicious and totally didn't make my stomach hurt. Anyhow, at lot has been swirling around my brain as of late. Here is a bullet list of the swirling mess: When I left UVU a little over 10 years ago, my GPA was a 1.95. When I came back in the fall I had to fill out a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) report thing to 1.) get my financial aid released, and 2.) promise to get a C or better for the remainder of my time at UVU. Well, I barely got a D in sociology 1010 class in the fa...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

Reasons

So, you remember from the last post when I said things were "a-changin'"? Well, they are. I'm moving to Hillsboro, Oregon. ETA: November 1st, but probably November 4th so I can at least finish the pay period instead of leaving in the middle of it. Anyway, here's a quick list of things I bet you didn't know about Hillsboro: *It's near the ghost town of Idiotville, Oregon. Real place. Wiki or google it. *What Draper, Utah is to SLC is exactly what Hillsboro is unto Portland. Almost the same place. *Has AMAZING parks and waterfalls. *All voting is done by mail. Secretly, I'm a little bummed about not getting a "I voted" sticker. Okay, so I could only really think of 4 things that you might not have known about Hillsboro or the surrounding area. Oregon as a state though, is pretty dang fantastic. I'll finally be able to partake in the Goonie-for-the-day festivities in Astoria. While there are many reasons why I'm moving away, the main rea...
