Magnets- how do they work?!
Aug. 24th, 2010 11:52 amJuggalos may be a bunch of douchebags who attack innocent women, but damn does ICP have some ridonk hilarious lines.
Anyhow, my first week of opening went fairly well. The first day was kind of bad, simply because I did not get nearly enough sleep the night before. I went to bed at 10pm but lay awake for at least an hour, then spent the rest of the night in a restless, not all the way under kind of sleep that kept getting interrupted. No fun. But other than that my first four opening shifts went well. Starting to get to know the early morning regulars, and tips are indeed better in the mornings than in the evenings. And as long as I get six hours of sleep the night before, I feel fine all day! Plus, since I park my parents car at their house, I've been walking two miles a day to and from the store. This past week I walked 7 miles to work, and then another 2 on the way to the Redskins game! Go me!
So, according to the scale at my doctor's office, I've lost 15 pounds over the past several months, and according to my parents I've begun to lose more since I started walking all over the place. Rock on! I've never been one for crash dieting, but if I can get steady exercise and start eating a bit healthier, I'm all for slow and steady weight loss.
Fall classes started yesterday. To be honest, math is going to be kinda brutal. LOTS of homework, LOTS of reading each week. Yikes. Anyhow, after I finish my bio homework I'll get started on that, then on my Environmental Change classwork. Luckily I have three days off this week, so I can get back into the swing of things regarding classes.
Of course, yesterday my computer's power adapter decided to go kaput. Like, it was working fine, and then all of a sudden my computer says its running on battery. We tried letting the adapter cool down before plugging it back in, no dice. So Palmer has ordered me a used replacement so that we can finish getting all my files from my computer onto my hard drive. Luckily, my parents had already ordered me a new computer, it should arrive this week. So, it could be worse. But it is still quite frustrating.
That's about it for now. Just wanted to write a quick update before getting back to homework. Love!
