1) To lose 27lbs, currently my measurements are 41-30.5-41 (b-w-h) and ideally I would like to see them at 38-27-38. I think it's reasonably attainable to lose 9.5 inches with 27lbs. The plan is pretty simple, I am making simple little changes to what I eat, going to aim to eat between 1200-1500 calories a day, and I'm going to increase the amount of time I spend exercising. 2) Paying off as much debt as possible. I will be volunteering and applying for scholarships so I do not accumulate further debt. I will no longer be eating fast food or eating out at work or school instead I'm going to pack a lunch (two birds with one stone.) I've already decreased my phone bill $60 dollars, and I'm planning on getting rid of my gym membership. I will use my tax money to pay a huge chunk of my visa off, and I'm also going to take a second job for the summer to clear up the rest of the visa and as much of my car loan as possible. 3)Making the dean's list for this semester is going to take A LOT of work, as all of my classes are much harder than last semester. However, I have completely faith I will do it, because I am willing to put all of my available time into my studies. Flat out, I'm not going to wait around for Mr. B to make up his effing mind anymore, or let him take up so much of my thoughts. He can choose to be in my life, or not but either way I am fantastic and I will find someone that wants to be there. 4)Already skating as much as possible. 5) Use some of the money I save to take trips, travel and experience different cultures. I think it will be good for me. |

| New Year. | ||||||
| Jan. 7th, 2010 | 11:31 am | ||||||
Cut off my hair, and I love it (for now at least). I'm thinking of maybe doing a Taylor Momsen (Little J early early Season 2 of GG, short banged blonde thing for summer.) I plan on expanding on my New Years resolutions further, and making a detailed break down of the plan to achieve each one. Today is the first day of classes, and so far I'm pretty excited. Sitting next to a PR girl named Reanna, and she's really sweet. (In ANTHRO, still have 3 more classes to go.) Um, so after my first semester my GPA is sitting at a 3.75. I did EXTREMELY well on the finals and I think I made a decent impression on the professors. I also made the Dean's list for the Fall09 semester! Yay. I think I'm going to try to come to campus Monday during the day to volunteer a few hours here and there and start applying for scholarships. I plan on raising that GPA this semester, although I think most of my classes look a little tougher than what they were last semester. On the bright side Dee at work is willing to help me with French, I already know how the Psychology professor grades, Anthropology seems like it will be easy provided I make an effort and I've already taken a second year Linguistics class so the first year one shouldn't be quite as scary as it is for other people. I hope 2010 is treating everyone fabulously! xoxo D* |

An answer on my last exam was "meat is delicious!" It was delightful. And I did some baking, pumpkin vanilla maple marbled cheesecake (in individual cups) with ginger snap crust. They are wonderful!! That is all xox |

Update time! So far I have written one exam, I got an A and I am super stoked about that it was a great way to start off finals week. In roughly an hour I'll be writing my Religious Studies final. I am super nervous, but at the same time I feel really well prepared so it's okay. Thursday Elisha and I will spend ALL day studying for Sociology, and that test shouldn't be too hard because I already have a pretty solid grasp of the concepts. Plus I have all day tomorrow to study for it as well. Linguistics I'm a little nervous about, but as long as I study hard I should be fine. My grades in that class won't be as high as I would have liked, but still in the B+ range. Sunday hopefully going snowboarding with Alicia, Bobby and one of Bobby's friends. Still really really liking Bobby. He's super amazing and sweet and we seem to be really on the same page with pretty much everything. =) Going to my Aunts for Christmas, excited to see the family and what not. It should be a great end to a great year. xo D* |

I've hardly had time to think this past month, let alone update. School is still good, I'm half done the semester and I'm still sitting in the A range (with the exception of one class where an 88% is only an A-, it'll hopefully go up.) Have a few major essays due, lots of tests and quizzes and assignments coming up and then finals. Not overly stoked. My dad will be having his surgery in December or January, so that's a little stressful. Going on a date tonight with a boy named Evan. This whole keeping my options open thing is interesting for sure. Going skating in half an hour! Definitely stoked for that. I miss having a life! Now all I do is work, study, go to school, and try and fit people in for like an hour here and there. It's pretty lame. Registered for next semester. I have Anthropology, Psychology, French and Linguistics. I'm really excited for that course load, and I'm going to talk to scholarships and academic advising about applying to Education for next year. Eep! |

Don't you dare forget. I am all you've ever wanted, What all the other boys all promised. Sorry I told. I just needed you to know. I think in decimals and dollars. I am the cause to all your problems, Shelter from cold. we are never alone. Coordinate brain and mouth. Then ask me whats it like to have Myself so figured out. I wish I knew.. I hope this song starts a craze. The kind of song that ignites the airwaves. The kind of song that makes people glad To be where they are, With whoever they're there with. This is war. Every line is about, Who I don't wanna write about anymore. Hope you come down with something They can't diagnose, don't have the cure for. Holding on to your grudge. Oh its so hard to have someone to love. And keeping quiet is hard. Cause you cant keep a secret If it never was a secret to start. At least pretend you didn't wanna get caught.. We're concentrating on falling apart. We were contenders, we're throwing the fight But I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, in us. Oh, we're so c-c-c-c-c-controversial. We are entirely smooth. We admit to the truth, We are the best at what we do. And these are the words you wish you wrote down. This is the way you wish your voice sounds, Handsome and smart. Oh my tongue's the only muscle on my body That works harder than my heart. And its all from watching TV, And from speeding up my breathing. Wouldn't stop if I could. Oh it hurts to be this good. You're holding on to your grudge. Oh it hurts to always have to be honest With the one that you love. Oh, so let it go.. We're concentrating on falling apart. We were contenders, we're throwing the fight But I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe. We're concentrating on falling apart. We were contenders, we're throwing the fight But I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, in us. This is the grace that only we can bestow. This is the price you pay for loss of control. This is the break in the bend, This is the closest of calls. This is the reason your alone, This is the rise and the fall. We're concentrating on falling apart. We were contenders, we're throwing the fight But I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe. We're concentrating on falling apart. We were contenders, we're throwing the fight But I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, I just wanna believe, in us. |

| School!! | ||||||
| Sep. 9th, 2009 | 06:17 pm | ||||||
Met up with Hailey, we had lunch, wandered around a bit and stuff. We're gonna commute in together a few days a week so that'll be pretty awesome and we have kind of similar schedules so were going to hang out on campus. It was so nice to see a familiar face! I've met a lot of new people so far, with a lot of really different and interesting life stories. It's neat to see all the different backgrounds coming into the program and knowing it's not just a bunch of naive 18 year olds. They covered a lot of really cool services offered by the university (two hours of free tutoring per week, essay writing help, scholarship stuff, some awesome sounding clubs and volunteer opportunities.) and I think I'm going to play intramural hockey. I'm pretty stoked to be able to get so involved in school because I didn't get as involved with high school. I'm also so excited for the opportunity to meet new people and network, and really push my comfort zone. I think this year will really help me take myself to a totally better place than I have ever been and Im really really glad I made the decision to go back to school. Ahh. As for relationship stuff I have a skate date with Jordan on the 18th. I'm not sure how I feel about it though, like he seems pretty cool but he's not really boyfriend material at all. I'm gonna keep the date and go with it though, cause it's another one of those comfort zone things. I really need break the routine I've gotten into of just writing guys off because they don't meet my criteria. He could be completely different then what I've seen so far. It's really funny... I feel like taking one little risk (dying my hair blonde) completely changed everything in my life as stupid as that sounds. Like I didn't think I could pull it off, and then I could... then the way people perceived me completely changed. Blondes have a reputation of being outgoing and fearless... and people having that expectation of me kind of made me more outgoing and fearless? I don't know. That gave me the confidence to go through with going back to school, and get super excited about being there. It also gives me the confidence to do things like actually go on dates and try things out and volunteer and play sports. It's also kind of giving me the confidence to do the whole dating thing, even if I get rejected or the guy is wrong and have fun with it. Who knew a box of hair dye could open so many doors? Anyway this is really freaking long and mostly gushing about how much I love MRU so I'm gonna wrap it up. Yay MRU. Yay skate dates with boys who are bad ass. Yay blonde. Yay life. The end. xoxo D* |
