Progress!

Yesterday I started cleaning my room and getting everything organized and CLEAN! I unpacked my weekender from when I went to see my family about 2-3 weeks ago, I washed and folded ALL of my laundry, and my floor can not only be seen, it actually has the opportunity to be vacuumed. That's been a while! I cleaned out the trunk of my car, cleaned off my dresser, reorganized my bookshelf, dusted EVERYTHING, and cleared out the corner of piled up junk that I had been neglecting because I didn't know what to do with all of it. Ahhh, I can actually relax in my bedroom now because there is not a possibility of being swallowed up or tripping all over all the crap that was everywhere. Truth is, I have way too much stuff. I am only one person and it should not be legal for one person to acquire so much stuff. I mean, I have stuff that I don't want to throw away but I have no idea what to do with it. A frisbee, for example. I don't want to throw it away because I might get the urge to play frisbee...with whom, I don't know, but I definitely need this frisbee. But in the meantime, what do I do with a frisbee??? My closet is full of books that need to be put in storage and clothes that I can't wear this season because I would die of a heat stroke if I did, so there is no room for a frisbee. Gah! Oh what a world! No, just my world that is full of straight up junk.

In other news, I think I am losing weight, but I am not entirely sure because I haven't weighed in a while. I have been eating less and working out and I think I am doing well because my clothes are starting to feel too big. Awesome news but still frustrating because I am in that stage where I need new clothes but don't want to buy any because I anticipate losing more weight. My plan is to hold off for the summer and buy some new "staples" for the start of school. Hopefully by then I will seriously need new jeans and I will buy a few new pairs! Any excuse to buy new clothes....

Well, that's all for now. Thanks for reading about my boring life!

VACATION!!!

So, I didn't think I was going to get to take a vacation this year- I thought it was going to have to be more like a stay-cation. However, thanks to my awesome family, I get to go to Myrtle Beach for vacation! That's actually strange because I am really not a beach person. Quite the opposite in that I would almost rather be anywhere than the beach because I do not want to be eaten by a shark and I do not like having sand in places that do not see sunlight. Honesly, I don't really even remember the last time I went to the beach. I'm thinking it was 2007 when I went to Disney with my friend, Leslie. That being said, I suddenly had a REALLY STRONG urge to go to the beach and now I get to go!!! Ahhhh..... Those are my thoughts. I simply cannot wait to spend at least one day laying on the beach in my swimsuit soaking up some much-needed, get-me-out-of-this-severly-foul-mood sunshine. Seriously, this vacation is very much needed because I have not been anywhere since April last year and work is seriously stressing me out. I don't even want to go into details about the craziness that is my supposed-to-be non-stressful, yet somehow completely stressful job. UGH!! Anyways, I realize Myrtle Beach isn't the Cayman Islands or the Caribbean or anything, but it is not Augusta, it is far away from my nightmare workplace, and it is my much needed, didn't think it would happen vacation. Works. For. Me! So, in the spirit of getting away from it all, I will be deactivating my Facebook account for at least the week I am gone, if not a whole month, minus a day or so to upload pictures.
