TRASHED

This weekend is going to be a glorious break from my exhausting, semi-stressful summer. Parentals are going camping, therefore I am forcing my brother to supply beer pong & shenanigan essentials (like I'll need to force him). This will be the first time I will be allowing myself to enjoy intoxication since the end of June. July was pretty busy family-wise so I haven't been going out much, and my job kills me during the week so I have no social life Monday-Friday anyways.

I shall kick start the weekend with some relaxing hookah with Carly Friday night and we'll see what happens from there.

I cannot fucking wait.

neglected thoughts

I did not forget about this...it's just that I'm so exhausted in the summer from my job that I haven't had the energy (and hardly the time) to relay thoughts. So I'm making a quick update of the last two months in the following summaries:
  • Went to Jamaica. It was nothing like I expected, aside from the weather. Gorgeous skies, but not the Sandals commercial I imagined. They don't depict the poverty, the simplistic stores and restaurants, or the neglected children in those commercials. Imagine that. I did enjoy it though, but was glad to come home after ten days.
  • Babysitting. Exhausting like I said but worth the $200 I'm paid in cash each week. Which I've been trying hard to save. Not working out too well =/
  • Re-doing my room. The paint is done, everything is spray painted, and I have my new sheets & comforter. Now I just have to buy my new furniture, sew my curtains, and organize everything.
  • Summer of Health. EPIC fail. So much of an epic fail that the lady working at the grocery store asked me, "So, you're having a baby, right?" Um no. I'm just fat.
  • Getting things straightened out & ready for school.
  • Kings Island. Haven't been in awhile but I did go a lot in July.

And that's what has kept me busy this summer. I tend to think that I'm lazy and hardly do anything on the weekends but when I look back on what I did this summer, I realize that I HAVE done a lot, just not everything I wanted to accomplish. Whatever, I figured as much seeing as how that happens every summer.

As for the summer of health, I have become so pathetic that I literally just googled "What to do instead of eating". I'm not going all anorexic, more like what to do when you're bored instead of eating. I don't even eat that much but I do have snack binging days and I don't ever realized I'm doing it half the time. And I guess I could cut back on what I eat during actual meals. And make better choices. And exercise more. I thought watching two girls ages 8 & 9 would get me plenty of exercise this summer, especially since I take them to parks and whatnot all the time, but I guess not. I want to get this health thing going, the problem for me is just starting it. I guess I'll keep trying ?
