Bleh.
My body is just really out of whack right now. I haven’t worked out since I’ve arrived on campus and I don’t like it. I need to take a serious look at my schedule and plan out when I can work out. Ugh.

GAH!
So I just ate pretzel crisps and a small piece of bread, but I’m still hungry! My stomach is going to growl like crazy in orchestra today. Oh well. Waiting until dinner to eat more.

Grr.
I made a great post with a GPOYW that included info about my delicious lunch, but tumblr had an error. By the time I went to post it, I had already finished eating it. Sad day.
Nonetheless, I had leftovers from dinner last night (chicken with sauteed onions and peppers and some brocoli) and a fresh spinach salad with light raspberry vinaigrette, feta cheese, and strawberries. It was super tasty....

Happy Moment
I’ve been packing my lunch for school the past couple weeks (and will continue to do so). I usually eat in the reed lab (an open office area for all intents and purposes), and a couple people were sitting in there while I was eating. I brought a delicious lunch of a fresh spinach salad with feta cheese, strawberries, and light raspberry vinaigrette. I also had celery and peanut butter. My...

Sit in front. You do not have to raise your hand, but generally try to sit in the first few rows during lectures. You’re less likely to ditch mid-lecture this way, you can hear the person speaking, and if you have questions you will get them answered. Sit. In. Front.

I finally have internet in my apartment.
Yay! I can do my homework from my apartment! I can look up things on the internet again! :D I will update ya’ll on the past week or so when I have time. (Which might be never…)

Grandma is the best.
I’m like best friends with my grandma on my mom’s side. She’s AWESOMETASTIC. Seriously, she’s an amazing woman who I love very much. Anyway, she’s taking me to go get a pedicure with her in about 25 minutes. I’m excited to spend time with her before going back to school. Plus pedicures feel good. But really I’m just excited to get to hang out with her one...

Practice
thespartanwarrior:
Whatever you practice, you will become skilled at doing. Winning athletes practice day after day, month after month, to hone their skills. So do the best musicians, actors, salespeople, airline pilots, preachers, photographers, designers — the list goes on and on. What do you practice every day? Do you practice positive, success-oriented skills and actions? Or do you practice...

Success Is Tedious
thespartanwarrior:
Success is often tedious. When we see success in others, it looks exciting and fun. We see someone who is successful in business living in a magnificent house, driving a shiny new car and taking exotic vacations. We see a successful athlete being cheered by the crowd after a winning performance on the playing field. We usually see only the results of success in others.

Crackle.
Technically, I have 11 classes standing in my way of graduating. Really I have more like 13-14 because I have a few more gen eds to finish, it just depends if any of those classes count for more than one requirement or not. And technically, I have more than that because I want to get a math endorsement to supplement my instrumental music education degree. However, I might not have time to finish...

So to officially have junior standing, you need to have completed 60 credit hours. I’ve completed 92.5 and will be taking 20 or 21 more this semester. I only need 120 hours to graduate. I’m gunna have so many extra credits. Oh, the life of a music major.

9 Exercises You Can't Live Without
becomingsuperhuman:
1) Squat
If you work out, and you don’t squat, then you don’t work out. They are the single most important exercise for almost every type of athlete out there. Master the squat, and you will improve every other lift that you do in the gym.
2) Deadlift
Is there anything simpler than picking a weight off the ground and standing up with it? It is amazing how the...

Dear Alan,
I’m going to sleep now because it’s 2:06 in the morning. You should probably think about doing the same sometime soon. Or else consume copious amounts of Mountain Dew and twizzlers until bedtime tomorrow. Whichever’s easier.
Sincerely,
Momma Bear
