Too many bad omens this morning.
Torrential rain, a dead cat, waking up late.
My snare drum drills are up to 165 bpm. That's...

I don't want to study Spanish flash cards anymore!

I don't want to read Culler's Literary Theory...
I lost 2.2 pounds this week!
Wee! I got the Calorie Counter app on my phone and that has helped A LOT. It’s made calorie counting MUCH easier. I didn’t start using it until Tuesday though, after eating 2205 calories on Monday. x’D
I may have actually lost a little bit more as I’m really bloated from being on my period this week. I’m weighing myself every Friday morning before I eat or drink...

I CAN BREATHE AAAH
I just learned that if I don’t make a 2.3 GPA by the end of this semester that I WILL NOT BE KICKED OUT. I’ll just be forced to sit out for a semester. While still not good, it’s MUCH more preferable. If it happens, I can work and possibly do some reading that could help me when I get back into school. I’m going to try my hardest still, but suddenly I feel like I can breathe a little.
EDIT @...
PANIC
So I find out today that I’m going to have to turn into percussion Super Woman by April to get into the school of music and the Redcoats. My percussion playing can be called ghetto at best. Can I go cry now? I’m going to work really hard, but I may have to push back trying out AGAIN.
Because right now my major concern is getting my GPA back up. So far things are going good. I’m a little worried...

Day four: Sloth – 7 things I neglect
1. School. I do work hard at school, but not hard enough, and sometimes I put off assignments too long for me to get anything out of them.
2. Exercise. An obvious one. I don’t do it like I should.
3. Doctors. I’ve needed to make a dentist appointment for 3 months now.
4. Chores. Don’t do them until I can’t stand the mess anymore. This needs to be amended soon or else when I move out in...
Day three: Wrath – 7 things that piss me off.
I’m surprised this post isn’t longer.
1. Ignorance. People that are ignorant yet try to argue anyway piss me the hell off. If you don’t know enough about the topic and you KNOW that you don’t, keep your fucking mouth shut.
2. Extremists. I live my life by the saying, “Everything in moderation,” it seems. Of course, extremists go against that grain of mine. But I’ve also seen a lot of...

Day two: Envy - 7 things I lack and covet
1. Weight. I’m roughly twenty pounds overweight. In high school I wasn’t the skinniest, but I wasn’t ever overweight. Since I started college, the pounds have been piling on. I dream of having a slim, fit body for many reasons: aesthetics, energy, my own self-confidence. I’m taking a weight management course this semester to help me figure out how to achieve this goal this year. I want to lose at...
Day One: Pride
Here’s my first entry for my blog. This will be an interesting one to write considering I’m a very prideful person but also afraid of showing too much confidence lest I get shot down for it.
I’m a writer. Anyone that knows me knows this, and knows that it’s the number one passion in my life. Most of my friends have seen me laboring away during class not diligently taking notes, but laboriously...

Jonestown 1978: Massacre or Suicide?
As many people feel when they read or watch documentaries on events in history such as the Nazi concentration camps, I have found an event that is leaving me in a kind of shock and awe. Is it just human nature that attracts us to things that are so horrible, and so unbelievable? Is it just a sick fascination? Or could it actually be an evolutionary response to know more about what happened so that...

Snow Days
School has been canceled for tomorrow too. xD I have yet to start “Spring” semester 2011. x’D
Monday
I start back school tomorrow. I’m excited and apprehensive. This semester is my last chance at getting my ass out of academic probation, or I’ll be dismissed from UGA. I absolutely know I can do it, but I succumb so easily to stress that I’m worried. Along with pledging to work harder I’m hoping that working on my self-image and confidence will help. If I’m more confident I may do better, you...
