The start of my fitness plan!

So, I have started my plan to get in shape by my brother's wedding, which is August 18th. About a month ago, I got on the scale at 174lbs. It freaked me out. Since then, I have sporatically worked out and cut pop and fast food out of my diet. Still under the stress of the school semester, I was able to drop to 165lbs. Anyhow, now that my school responsibilities are over for the time being, I started my hardcore fitness plan today OFFICIALLY. Each day I am going to report what I ate, my workout, and my weight for the day. I will do this each night before bed. So, at this moment I weigh 165lbs.

Freaky!

Ice Ice Baby

Right now I am up at this ridiculously early hour (for a college student) because I received a text that school is closed for the day due to the snow and ice storm outside. I can hear tree branches settling on my roof under all the weight of the ice and snow. It's kinda freakin me out. Well, time to go back to sleep.

I'm a bunny rabbit! I'm a pengawin!

During the weekend of November 4, my parents came to visit me. As we got lost driving around Normal, we spotted this house and I just had to snap this shot!

@ The Elbo Room

Hangin' out at the Elbo Room in Chicago on October 26th. We were there to see Emily's brother's band, Spyder Monkey. They were pretty good. I'd recommend them for sure.

The Start

Trying to figure out how to start this. I've written and erased about ten lines alreay. Basically, I have a few free minutes in my crazy schedule to start up this blog. This is an experiment/art project that I am starting. I always wrote in journals when I was young. I have also kept a zillion sketchbook/scrapbooks. So I've decided to try and translate that into a new media. My biggest challenge is feeling free to express the same things that felt safe, hidden and not under scrutiny in my journals and sketchbooks. So, as I close out on my long day, all I can think about is that I need to get home and clean my apartment so the landlord can replace my furnace filter.
