get over my crush (read all 5 entries…)
ugh...relapse

So I saw him today a few times, but didn’t actually talk to him. Haven’t seen him much this semester, and we just say hi when I do. But today my old crush-y feelings crept back for the first time in a while. I still like looking at him, but of course that only makes it worse. Stupid me.

I thought I was over this. I thought I was finally ready to cross this off my goals list. But now it seems to be creeping back. “Crush” came on my mp3 player shuffle today. Damn you, Gavin Degraw, for being so god-damn right. :P

Still, it’s much better now. This is just one last stumbling block. I hope. :/



lose weight
I'm actually doing it!

So I lost about 10 pounds this semester using my “diet” plan, which I named “More salads, less cheesecake”. Basically I stopped eating as much of the sweets (even though they’re pretty much the only edible thing in the caf) and started filling up with more salads, veggies, other healthy foods. I could probably still cut more, but I don’t want to over-cut because I know from my last diet attempt that that doesn’t really work. I gained all the weight back and I’d like to actually keep it off this time.

I definitely plan to kick it up a notch though, both in diet and exercise. Sprained my ankle last semester, which put a damper on the “exercise” plans. I’m thinking of starting up a jogging routine. I mean, I already like walking so it’d just be a little faster, better cardio. :)



Organize postcards
Always on the to-do list, never done

So I’ve been collecting postcards since I was 6. Used to be just from when I went on vacation, but now I buy them pretty much everywhere I see them. So I have a ton, but many of them are too big for the photo album I originally used. I used to cut them, but now I think that’s just ridiculous and I hate doing it so I got a 12×12 scrapbook to put them in. Made some progress over the summer but haven’t touched them in a while. :/
