No Pain, No Gain... Oy

So, for the new year I decided to get healthy. And I am not going to break this resolution like I have every other time. I have a group of hallmates that I'm working out with every day, and here is the real kicker: I'm giving up Coke. It's literally one of the hardest things I have had to do. But I know I will feel better for it. Most people keep telling me that I can't do it, which really sucks because I don't exactly think that I can. To be told that I can't is just kind of adding insult to injury. If you would like to see me succeed, please tell me that I can do it, because the negative energy isn't working out.

Back to the Grindstone

So, Jan Term sounded like fun. I only have to take one class for a month and the rest of the time I just chill. But it's only the first day and I am bored out of my freaking mind!!! This could be because I haven't started class yet. That's tonight. So far today, I have practiced yoga, done Tai Chi, eaten lunch, organized my binders, and am getting ready to go to the gym. And it's only 1. I don't have class until 6 this evening. I think I'm gonna watch Shrek. If I don't find something to do, I may possibly go insane.

A New Year

So, today is my last day of vacation. Tomorrow I head back to school and to everyone that I love and miss so much. A new year is pretty exciting for me. But when I found out what tragedy has struck other people, it makes me feel so grateful for what I have. A friend of mine lost her brother yesterday. I don't know what I would do if I ever lost my sister. A year ago today, my Senior class lost a classmate. His death brough us closer together. He didn't die in vain. No one does. My wish for the new year is that everyone I love stays happy and healthy. And that those who are suffering can be relieved from it.
