busier than ever!
Wow do I suck at updating or what?! So sorry guys, I've been extremely busy the past couple of weeks and barely managed time to write this. I literally had to schedule time to write this entry...that's sad. Haha. I do want to say thank you to everyone who gave me advice on my last post and some very helpful tips. It means a lot and I appreciate you all being so caring I can't say that I've made any major changes to my eating habits...but I have been eating more. Even if it's just a little, at least it's something right? I will get there, I just need time. I have been spending a lot of time looking up low fat/low carb/low calorie snacks and I went grocery shopping on Sunday night and bought a lot of snacks to take to work. This way I'm eating more but without feeling so guilty.
Let's see....in the past couple of weeks not much has really changed. Work has been pretty busy, but I did get a $1 raise! Woo (this is at my full time job, not PetSmart). I roll my eyes because the rate of pay I get is still wayyyy lower than what it should be for what I do, but hey I'm grateful for the raise and thankful I even have a job - two at that.
school.
I started school yesterday, and I am definitely going to have a huge work load. It's only two online classes (I mentioned Stats and Business before), but they both require a pretty good amount of work. I went to the mandatory orientation for my Stats class today and after I got out of that I was feeling pretty hopeless about it and was thinking of dropping it. I'm horrible at Math and she did say that if Math isn't your strong suit you shouldn't be taking Stats online...I knew that from the beginning but I guess I thought maybe I could manage? Anyway, after venting to Anthony about it and debating with myself, I decided I'm going to stick through it and give it a try. The eBook is free for the first 20 days as a trial, and I can drop the class by September 9th so that gives me some time to get an idea of if I can handle it or not. I wanted to get it out of the way this semester so I can stop going to Harbor College next year and look into starting the veterinary technician program at Mt. San Antonio College. However, if I think I'm not going to be able to pass Stats then there's just no point of me taking it online and I'll have to take it on campus next semester. We'll see.
I have a few assignments already due on Sunday for both classes so I'm going to get started on that after this entry. It feels good to be back in school though and keeping busy(or busier).
in other news.
Anthony & I have been doing really well, our "1 month" was last Wednesday so we went out to Denny's and then saw the movie Jobs. I liked it; Ashton Kutcher did some great acting but it wasn't exactly what I expected. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it so I'll just leave it at that. Anthony got me a coffee tumbler that I can put our movie stubs in (I save all of our ticket stubs from the movies we've seen). On Saturday we went and saw You're Next - which in my opinion was soooo stupid! Not worth it. I guess if you liked the newest Evil Dead you would enjoy You're Next. But I also thought Evil Dead was stupid so that's probably why I didn't enjoy You're Next. I figured since it was from the producers of The Conjuring (which was awesome!) it would be decent but nope. Blah. I'm excited for Insidious 2 and Prisoners! Anyone who hasn't seen the trailer for Prisoners go watch now...looks so good!
We haven't seen each other as much as we used to (maybe like 3-4 days a week now instead of 5-6) because of my work schedule & school, but I actually think it's a good thing because he's always telling me how much he misses me. It's funny because I was getting a little irritated with the fact that when we do go out to dinner or whatever, he always eats the most unhealthiest thing ever. I'm really not a judgmental person when it comes to how someone eats, and he's diabetic so I totally get that he can't be eating like I do (as in, not very much). But I am a person of respect and support, and I feel like if you know someone struggles with willpower in avoiding unhealthy foods, you wouldn't be eating the biggest, unhealthiest meal ever in front of them. At home or away from them, do whatever you want but in front of them, every time you go out? That's just a little rude to me. Anyway, I didn't say anything but a few days ago we were talking about making changes and he was saying how he shouldn't be eating like that in front of me and that he should be supportive - without me even saying a thing about it! I thought that was ironic and cute. -shrug- I like having him around and spending the time that I do have with him.
We're going to Universal's Halloween Horror Nights (I go every year) in October and that should be fun! Definitely looking forward to that.
Anyway, I think that's all I have for now. All I have time for anyway And again, thank you all for being so supportive and caring in regards to my last entry.
