Life

So, I haven't had a lot of motivation to come to the library on my days off lately. Mostly because I'm dog tired and would rather sleep in thus moving laundry time back to the afternoons. By the time I get that done, I've run out of motivation to do much of anything else. Plus, any free time I have after work I spend on the couch watching NCIS or CSI re-runs or whatever DYI programs we've got on the DVR.

Anyhow, I'm done to about 8 minutes here at the library. So to cut to the chase, I present a list for your reading enjoyment.

*I got my student loan repayment term paper thingies in the mail today. It just proves to me how much I need to get back into school this fall. Hopefully everything I've planned for myself this summer, educationally speaking, will work out.

*I am starting a CNA course at the Ogden-Weber Applied Technology College in about a week and a half. I'm hoping to find a decent paying job and work my way through school.

*Starting to research scholarships for the fall. Good thing I work for the Church.

*Working for the Church has been a pretty big blessing. I get a heads up on scholarships and the CNA course I'm taking is being paid by the Church. It's pretty great. I love a free education.

Other than that, life has been pretty boring. My little brother, Adam, turned 10 yesterday. I feel so old...bleh. Only exciting news is that I'm going up to Lava Hot Springs this weekend with a friend. That's the bit of shiny goodness in the foreseeable future. Which, let's be honest here, what I perceive as a foreseeable future is only about 2 weeks out. :)

Adios

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. :-]

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...

Hooray for Holi!

My friend Kim and I will be going to celebrate Holi with our fellow Hindus today. I'm not sure if half the people going today actually know what Holi is except for the fact that it is fun. Go to this link and learn about Holi! *Pictures will be forthcoming!* **ETA: So, there was a HUGE accident on the freeway on the way to Spanish Fork yesterday and being the impatient driver that I am, decided to go around the accident. We went through Springville and Mapleton to avoid the accident. Well, not knowing what exit we were at, we weren't sure where we were and completely missed the festival. I was a little bummed. Well, a lot bummed. Kim and I went up the Spanish Fork Canyon instead to a town that was flooded years ago. Hopefully Kim won't hate me forever for missing the festival...
