Still doing alright! 6 months ago

I’ve allowed my self-control to waver, but I’m down 45 pounds and feeling great. I’m almost down to a BMI approved weight, but that’s a load of crap anyway because it doesn’t take muscle mass into account.

I’m so amazed that I ever got as heavy as I did.

meet new people (read all 4 entries…)
Untitled 6 months ago

This is my first entry in a while and I’ve got a bit to say under it.
I’ve met all sorts of new people this semester. I did not arrange my housing until the very last minute and it all fell into place with my new roommate, B_. We were viewing the same apartment at the same time and found that we had two very important things in common:
1 – The need for a room.
2 – The need for a roommate.
We have found a great deal of other similarities as time has passed and the living situation has been better than I would have dreamt.

I’ve also become very good friends with R__, an ex-girlfriend of my old roommate and one of my best friends. She’s truly great and I really like her in a more-than-friends kind of way. Unfortunately, the feeling aren’t reciprocated and well…
I believe that it can best be summed by William Somerset when he said, “The love that lasts the longest is the love that is never returned.” Ah, well. Of those, I fear I’ll have many. A broken hear merely means more pieces to share. Like a good investment portfolio, I’ll spread myself around. Never able to be crushed in one fell swoop; assets slowly maturing for a net gain. Something like that. Through her, I’ve met a several (very attractive) members of the gymnastics team at my school – boy, do they party!

I’ve also spent more time with people from class and just plain wandered the streets in search of adventure and life’s extraordinary mysteries and misfortunes!

Life is good. Loneliness is at a tolerable level. I’ve got people to drink with me, but the bed is still empty.
