I’m reading a book about a guy who leaves everything behind and walks across the country. There is something very attractive about that thought, but instead of walking, I think I’d rather bike. I used to be spontaneous. I did what I felt. I followed my heart. I think biking across the country would be a great way to restore that. Fresh air and open roads (or sidewalks). Next summer would the be perfect opportunity. I will have just graduated and I’ll have a whole summer before grad school. What better way to clear your mind before hitting the books than riding 3000 miles?

Social Work is the official major. I enter my program in the fall. I suppose I won’t truly know if it makes me happy until I get out there and get a job tho!
Ya know what? I’m throwing this goal in the trash. I’m not accepting the fact that I’ll never be as thin as I was in high school, but I AM accepting the fact that it doesn’t matter. What does matter is that I’m healthy (training for a triathlon) and I’m happy (most of the time) with what I look like! I have a boyfriend who thinks I’m perfectly sexy just as I am and that’s the body I want to have!
