Holy crap, has it really been five months since I last posted? So much for my resolve to post once a week. New semester, though, so new resolve!
Well, maybe not such new resolve. With this being the first day of school and still being early enough in the year to count as a resolution, I was supposed to get out of bed at 5am-ish to start my new habit of eating breakfast and to leave the house by 7am to walk the two miles to my bus connection, which I thought would be a simple way to incorporate exercise into my daily routine. Ha, I say. My insomnia kicked in at 3am, and I didn't get drowsy again until 4:30am, which meant I hit the Snooze button until 7. Happily, I still managed to get to class on time, but I was hyper-aware of my stomach rolls once I saw all the teeny-weeny students at school. On the plus side, the fashion parade on campus was out in force today - the shoes and boots worn by my fellow students are to die for! And there's always tomorrow, right?
At the least, I have to start eating breakfast because, about an hour into my morning class, I had a low-sugar moment. I was so hungry after class ended that I decided to walk the mile (incorporating exercise into my daily routine!) to my local California Pizza Kitchen where I ate the entire 1069-calorie portion of kung pao spaghetti with chicken and shrimp (self-sabotaging at every turn)! Would that I had stopped there, but no. I ordered the focaccia appetizer and ate half the complimentary order of bread I was served while I was waiting for my app. Yeah, the meal wasn't over until I hated myself. The kicker was that not one hour earlier I was totally disgusted at how my gut was touching the edge of my school desk. Funnily enough, my gut also hit the edge of the table in the booth at CPK!
Enough of my fattitude, though, since this is supposed to be a school blog! Not that I have a school story ready right now, but soon, my pretties, soon.
