Sorry that I haven’t written in awhile!

Some very quick updates:

  • Relaxed my hair on 1/11/10. Am going to cut the split ends that I keep catching, though that goes against this challenge that I took. Am going to have to ask the challengers if cutting the split ends is against the rules if I notice that they’re causing breakage. I don’t think they are.
  • I start classes next week on Tuesday.
  • Will be purchasing my car tomorrow so that I can get to classes and the gym on campus. Will have to configure my schedule so that I can squeeze in that.
  • Will be searching out another part-time job in the area to do after classes end for the day. I have decided that I want to be able to afford my 1 bedroom apartment, insurance for my car, gas, and utilities myself. Being dependent on another person sucks, especially if that person ends up being unable to pull their own weight… That’s more later, or not.
  • Have to look into getting the braces put on soon. My two molars on the left side of my mouth DEFINITELY have to go. Will talk to a dentist/orthodontist about getting the other molar on the right side and the wisdom teeth next to all these molars pulled in order to accommodate my braces.
  • I have been working on a lot of projects, including a e-magazine for black females and a farming simulation MMO game. I need to get all of this plotted in on weekends or something.
  • Will be setting up my personal-care maintenance schedule. I already have meals for the week planned, so that lunch won’t be a major panic during the week.
The biggest thing here is that I have GOT to get serious about losing this weight. I read from notes that I took that I promised my doctor in September or August that I would lose 20 pounds in the three months after that… didn’t happen. My pants don’t fit as tightly as they did before (so I guess I am losing weight at the waist), but I have eaten cookies, ice cream, and other Not Good gunk in the past few days, many times in substitute of meals. Hectic schedule, but that’s not a good enough excuse.
(though, not having much food to choose from in the house due to not having a car definitely may count)
I want to be the best me I can be. May 2010, I will be 156 pounds. Mark my words. I’ve gotta kick it into gear here.
