Dead man in Nassau?
My family, Carly, and I arrived in Nassau today to spend New Year’s at Atlantis, but something strange happened at the airport. I needed to go to the bathroom, so while we waited for our car to take us to the hotel I headed back inside. I walked right next to a group of people surrounding a man on the floor. As I looked at him I heard a woman say, “All I heard was his wife scream.” I looked closer...

I’m finishing Inkheart today, and I know I want to start Inkspell immediately. But should I take another book with me on my trip?
I think I might take The Old Man and The Sea with me. :] ♥ Hemingway.
FAT SCHOOL
So starting a work out regimen before Christmas and vacation was definitely NOT going to work. So, while still drinking oodles of water, I’m going to just do crunches until we’re back from the Bahamas. Then I’m going to hit this thing with the force of a typhoon! I’ve modified my regimen to something I’ll stick to. I’m going to do an hour of Pilates six days a week. But if there’s a day that I...
WoW
World of Warcraft is taking over me life.
Ahhh…
But I do have the urge to play Mass Effect 2 with Adrian. :I

Evolution via Wikipedia
Some kid has been arguing with me about the theory of evolution on DeviantART. He keeps trying to say that it is a “factual theory” which means that it’s definite. However, for it to be a theory at all means it isn’t definite.
Evolution is based on factual data, but that does not mean that the theory itself is a fact, but a theory in science in not just a whim. Evolution is backed up my years of...

Grades
Finally got my grades back.
English: C
Philosophy: C+
Music: B
Geography: B+
Piano: A-
GPA: 1.96
I needed a 2.0 to get out of academic probation. Since I didn’t make it, I now have to get a 2.3 by the end of next semester or I’ll be dismissed from UGA. This sucks ass. I worked so hard, but it looks like I have to work even harder.
I feel like such a damn failure.
JACKASS.
My cousin is pulling the last straw with me. He’s threatening us so that we won’t kick him out of the house. The thing is, he promised that he would be out of that house by the end of the year, but because the construction company is screwing him over. I wouldn’t be so livid if he didn’t have a place to go. But he does. He has options. He and his wife are not paying rent on this house. They’ve...
amidoin'itrite?
I walked 500 more steps in 30 minutes tonight! I took a rest yesterday, but jumped right back in the saddle today. Today is the fourth day.
Tomorrow I’m going to start Pilates. The tape I have (Beginner Pilates for Weight Loss) helped me a lot two summers ago, but I just fell out of the habit of doing the work outs. So, coupled with walking, I’m going to do Pilates five times a week. The tape has...

I got Adrian Shepard ready to go to Mass Effect 2 and started it last night. After days of just playing Mass Effect, I’m going to put the controller down and work on my stories today.
I hope my readers are happy. xD

Mass Effect: Planet Names
If you’re OCD about completing all the assignments in Mass Effect, then you’ll have seen almost all of the planet names. There’s a few I’ve noticed with double meaning, or are just funny.
“Amaranthine.” In Dragon Age: Origins a country in Thedas is called “Amaranthine,” which is also the setting for Awakening.
“Nearrum.” Near Rum. Hmm…
“Antirumgon.” I translated this to say “Anti-Rum gone.” I...
Weight Check #1
It’s Friday which means Weight Check Day!
Now, keep in mind that I literally started working out at 12:01AM on Thursday. Yup. And then I could only run for five minutes before I got discouraged and stopped.
But on Thursday afternoon I walked nonstop, swinging my arms, for 30 minutes and felt great. So I’ve decided to post pone the running program for a week or two. Instead, every day I’m going to...
Mass Effect: My Shepards
Okay, so tonight I realized I’m going to end up with six Shepards to go to ME3.

Adrian Shepard (Soldier): Almost ready to go to ME 2, will romance Kaidan and remain loyal.
Piper Shepard (Adept): Haven’t started, but she’s been...

Weight.
Tonight I feel inspired to actually lose weight. I’ve been slightly overweight for a couple of years now and frankly I’m tired of squeezing into clothes, crossing my arms over my stomach to hide fat rolls, and feeling bulky and awkward around people. I want to lose weight to boost my confidence in my appearance and to gain more energy and better health.
I found an 8-week program for running. It...
