And you gave me love
When I could not love myself
And you made me turn
From the way I saw myself
I’ve lost all zest for life
Pop!
I’ve become weaker and weaker.
I wish you were.
Talking to strangers
The Winter Ritual
I’m cold.
I’m sad.
Yup, it’s definitely winter.
THE TIDES
I pretend to live in the present.
Now is what I crave,
Finches at the feeder,
Sunlight on a rose.
But memory
The relentless tide
Suddenly brings alive
A forgotten moment
With such a freight
Of passionate grief in it
I cry out
Alone.
The past is Now.
The tide rises and falls.
There is no shutting it out.
-Sarton
Awake my soul.
This song has everything I need right now.
Anonymous asked: what do you do to lose weight? have you lost a lot w/ insanity?
Over this past summer I did a hybrid of P90x and Insanity. It was hard to stay motivated because the routine got tiring really fast. It’s always good to workout with a friend. In that way you can both motivate each other.
As for my diet, I ate a bunch of cereal, cucumber tomato sandwiches, fruits and salad basically.
I personally still have a long way to go, but I’m telling you…you’ll definitely shed lbs with Insanity…because over the course of two years (on and off) I’ve lost a total of 45 lbs with it.
Making life decisions in the shower
After dedicating four and half years of my life blindly going to college, I realized that my path of education can’t end here. Faced with the pressure of beginning a career and with a B.S. in Biology, I realized that you honestly can’t do much of anything with this degree. I’ve decided that the smart thing for me to do would be to go to grad school to get my masters. It sucks that a Master’s degree has become the new Bachelors. ugh. But for now, I have to find a job (probably as a lab assistant) and study my ass off for the GRE. Looks like I might be going back to reconsidering P.A. school. I’m not going to lie, it’s easier planned out and said, but I can’t let statistics and competition deter or discourage me from trying. We’ll see…
