I would totally slay, I’m pretty sure.

Okay. So I’m thinking some sort of black beans and rice all spicy style with some mango + avocado salsa and some fried plantains with some ginger beer. Someone make this happen for me right now!!!

I was working a couple of jobs, not spending a ton, and saving pretty diligently. I paid stuff off in bigger chunks. Got a savings account. Currently debt free, but unemployed….

I’ve been reading collections of short stories for a few months now. Working up to some easy novels! Currently: Paint It Black by Janet Fitch. It’s okay, but unrealistic. Good to pass the time on a train.

I wasn’t advanced enough. I tried DVD’s, but they’re not as good.

I walk to work pretty much 100% of the time unless the weather is absolutely awful. I recommend this. I have two jobs. One is about 30 minutes walking, the other 50.

I quit my job and it saved me so much stress. Unfortunately I’ve encountered some of the same people, but now I know that I have control over unhappiness.

I don’t drive at all, by choice. It’s awesome!!!

I’ve gotten better about the floor thing. Now my clothes usually make it into a basket, but sometimes I throw them on my loveseat. I am much better about it now though. I am going to a clothing swap in December, so I’ll be cleaning out my closet!!

I bought an Elura 85. FINALLY!!

I cut my hair on Wednesday after almost two years of growing it out. It’s probably going to be three years until I get that length back. I am enjoying my new hair. I think this is one of the easiest and most rewarding things I have ever done, and I would definitely do it again!

In a few months it will officially be two years of hair growing. Right now my hair isn’t really doing anything, just laying on my head. I got it layered a year ago, but I’ve kept trimming the ends to get the damage out, so the layers are pretty much out. I haven’t dyed my hair in several months. I can’t wait to finally chop this hair off. Then my hair will be all fresh and gorgeous like when I was a kid!!

In elementary school I got a bad grade in handwriting. I’ve never lived it down. However, I would say my mom has worse handwriting than me!!! I think I’ve come into my own with my handwriting, but it could use some work to make it nicer and more uniquely me!!! HA!

I totally had plantains last night. I kind of made plantains foster.

Did you know that they have nice women’s clothing at Target??? I’m not kidding! I found pants that actually look good on me and trust me, that’s pretty hard.

I have two friends in town, but I want to make more! I want to make friends I can just call up and hang out with! And who will cook vegetarian food and let me eat it. All of the time!!!

My hair is the longest it’s ever been. I meant to cut it this month. It’s getting unmanagable. BUT, I think I’m going to work with it and let it grow some more. I am paranoid it won’t be long enough, so I want to be absolutely sure.

I finally bought plantains today. Three! From an Indian market I didn’t even know existed. Oh man. Now I just need some veggie burgers.

It was awesome! I volunteered for 80 hours, getting a platinum badge. I saw a lot of bands and films and attended a lot of parties! I even saw some celebrities. I left Austin with a terrible cold and a tired body, but it was well worth it.

If you get good feedback and have supportive people around, this is good times all around!!!
