Wow...

...It's been a while.

So as for Monday weigh ins the past 2 weeks, I was down, and then up again.
Just basically circling around the same numbers.
I hate this, but I really have no reason to be upset since I'm not really trying that hard to do anything about it.

I'm going to try to keep this post short.

Some things I thought about that I wanted to blog about:

The other day I was stopped at a red light, and I saw a man on a bike with a pitcher of water in his one hand. And inside that pitcher? Why, there was a goldfish of course!
He was taking his goldfish for a bike ride.
I thought that was amazing.

My grandma on my moms side passed away this past week, her funeral was on Saturday.
When she passed, I thought about posting something on facebook regarding it. Then I thought, she's not going to log onto afterlifefacebook.com so there's absolutely no point updating my status about this. Then I went on to think about why anyone would update their status regarding someone who just passed, especially saying "goodbye grandma". Like they're ever going to see that. Even if it was "Just to let everyone know, grandma passed away" wouldn't it still be awkward to all the people in your friends list that never knew her? It just seems really inappropriate to post something like that, so personal, on your facebook.
A day later I log onto facebook and see someone post something about a family member passing.
Coincidence? Who knows.

What else?
We're getting new uniforms at work starting June. We can wear jeans! Yes!
I'm pretty excited.

I need to pull out my bike. If it's not raining tomorrow I really should. Of course saying that now means absolutely nothing, because Ive said it before.

Anyways, I think I'm going to leave it at that.
It's 4pm and I haven't eaten a thing since I woke up.

Later days.

Hmm..

Today I bought yellow bed sheets, and a green hibachi BBQ.

I am thoroughly satisfied.

That is all.

Later days

OMG

The final trailer for Eclipse is out.
Looks SOOO good!

That is all.

Not in the mood

I'm really not in the mood to blog at all right now.

Having said that, watch me write a novel.

Monday weigh in...down 2.5lbs.

Having looked through my list of notes, its basically just normal for me to be fluctuating 1 or 2 lbs here and there.

I'm not seeing any solid results as of yet. I kind of stopped trying, like I always do with diets.

I just thought with the amount of hockey I played these past 2 weekends, something would have changed.

Anyways, I'll try to keep up with this whole weight loss business. I'm sick and tired of being chunky.

So I finally slept in today, after waking up at 7am the past 2 days to play 2 or 3 games of hockey each day. I woke up at around 9:30, just as a preliminary wake up, then went back to sleep.

From about 1o to 11 I was basically too tired/lazy to get up so I tried to sleep as best I could but at that point I couldn't fully fall asleep again. You know what I'm talking about right?

Then eventually at 11 when I got up I felt like crap. Of course. I knew it was going to happen.

Anyways, I have my coffee, Ive done my facebooking, after this I'll probably head downstairs for some yogurt and rice cakes(breakfast of champions) and watch an episode of Nurse Jackie.

Then I'll drag my butt over to work...again...for a shift that will last far too long, mainly because of who I'm working with.

BUT THEN! I have all of Tuesday off! And on Tuesday night I start my co-ed hockey league, and I'm SO excited for that.

AND THEN! I have all of Wednesday off! Hurrah! I hope the weather is nice Tuesday and Wednesday, maybe I'll actually go biking this time, or roller blading.

As for my injuries, my ankle isn't swollen anymore, but it still does hurt on the bone like a bruise. My bruise is starting to fade, but the center is still hard and very painful.

I think I will be scheduling a doctors appointment sometime this week. Perhaps on one of my off days. It's just better to know exactly whats wrong than wonder why it's taking 2 months to heal.

Hmm what else....(see? novel) So much for not wanting to blog today.

I'm starting to second guess my tattoo..more for the fact of what my dad/family will say. I know I'll never be interested in a job that wouldn't hire you based on the fact that you're covered in tattoos, so that's not really a big concern, but I don't know.

Ive found I ask myself if this is who I really am. The answer is always yes. I love art, I love being creative, I love being different. I'm getting this tattoo no matter what, I just hope my dad doesn't hate me for it.

So now I'm just waiting for George to call me! It's been almost a month, he said sometime at the end of April, I'm thinking it'll probably be in May. Justin is getting one before me, and he hasn't even been called yet, so who knows how long this will take.

Alright, I should stop talking now..or writing I guess...

Wish me luck on becoming less fat.

Thanks.

Later days

P.s. My team won first place at the Heart and Stroke tournament! Woot woot!

Yea Yea Yea

Monday weigh in....
Ugh, so I'm up 2.5lbs.

Hoorah! Even after 4 games of hockey this weekend!
Well I guess I haven't really been eating that great, and did no other exercise last week at all so.
Hoping this week goes a bit better.

I ended up getting hurt twice this weekend, one slap shot to the calve and another shot to my ankle. Both hurt a lot. Id have to say Ive never been hit that hard in those places before ever. Well we were playing against men so that might have something to do with it.

I have a nice bruise brewing on my calve in the shape of a hockey puck. It's so hot.
I wasn't able to really walk on my right foot yesterday because of the pain in my ankle, and I woke up this morning with absolutely no pain at all. Strange. Sure it hurts on the bone if you touch it, there is a bruise starting to form, but as for general pain in my ankle, its completely gone and I can walk! Although still a little swollen.
So work should be ok tonight, I was kinda dreading have to hobble around.

I just hope the swelling goes down by next weekend, I'm kind of scared to put my hockey skate back on, because I know it's going to kill every time the side touches my ankle bone. Should be nice.

Hmm what else? Well in the tournament, we were the first female team to ever be allowed to play, and we won second place in our division! I bet the guys weren't expecting that!
And they even asked us back for next year! How exciting!
We got t-shirts as prizes and they were nice enough to go through all of them and pick out all the mediums for us. Never fails that girls are always stuck with XL men's shirts. That's just how it works. Even at women's tournaments if you can believe it.

La la la!
I think I'm gonna take my bike out this week, pump up some tires and start going for rides. I found a good route to take last summer that ends up being a pretty good work out. So I shall try that out again, and maybe if I do that every day, or well the days I'm not working..(I hate to get sweaty before work..It's just gross) I'll see some improvement.

AHHH!! Hockey starts next week! Well...resumes I guess I should say.
Ive actually been missing it these past few weeks...even though I played every weekend since the season ended. But still, it's not the same. I start on my summer team from last year called The Ringers, and my new co-ed team called District 5 named after the Mighty Ducks original team. I cant wait. The co-ed team is a brand new league though, so I'm hoping the level is ok.
Get ready for a lot of new injuries from this league. Cant wait.

Hmm....That may be it for now? I know it's been a while so I had a bunch to report on.
Still VERY excited for school.
And I'm hungry...it's lunch time.
Time for foooooods.

Passion

I guess I haven't fully accepted the fact that I'll be going back to school in September, for Animation of all things.
Every time I think about it, it's like I'm finding out for the first time all over again and I get so excited!
I hate that its 5 months away, but I know that once it comes I'll be wishing for my summer back.

I love feeling excited about something again. I pump myself up by googling anything and everything to do with animation and I just hope one day I can be as good as some of the people out there.
I know it will take a lot of dedication, more than I think I have.
I guess my biggest fear is not being able to really try my hardest, or get bored and give up.
If I take anything seriously in my life, I really want this to be it. I want to be able to stay motivated and still love what I'm doing.
School has ruined my passion for everything I've taken so far. Photography, and before that art. Which is mainly the reason why I didn't want to take Animation in the first place. I had no passion left, I didn't want to ever put pencil to paper again. But here I am. Loving it once more.
I just hope the same thing doesn't happen this time around.

I think being able to see myself improve will keep me motivated. I hate trying to draw something and having it come out like crap. I give up right away. But if I learn, and improve, and can finally be able to get out on paper exactly what I want, it will make me love it that much more.
But again it all comes back to pushing myself to improve. No slacking off this time around, not for the money it's going to cost.

Now speaking of money, why are the tickets for Rock of Ages so friggin expensive?!
Ugh! I wanna go!!

Scrandle

It's Monday.
It's weigh in day.
*sigh* Alright, let's get this over with.

After losing the 2.5lbs last week I guess I thought I did really well and started cheating this week thinking it wouldn't really make a big deal.
So here I am.

I'm down 1 lb.

Yay for being down, but boo for being only 1 lb.
I was actually surprised seeing that though. I thought for sure I would be up from last week.
So this is good.
I just have to work extra hard this week.
Let's go me!

Tonight I'm going out to dinner with friends to celebrate getting into school.
(OMG I got into school!)
Hopefully I can control my menu picking and get something sensible.
Should be fun though, haven't seen them in a while. So much to catch up(ketchup) on.

I have a super mega shift tomorrow which I'm not at all looking forward to since my feet still hurt from my last shift.
Eww I slept in till 11:30 today. I feel gross.
Alright, well I think that's all for now.
