1) I was in bed by 12 or 12:30 but got to sleep by 1am
2) I slept until 9 I think. I had to get ready for church.
3) I had two small glasses of water.
4) I did no Bible.
5) I didn't exercise. 

6) Foodizzles:
Breakfast- none (not enough time)
Lunch- 1 slice pizza
Snack- two chocolate cupcakes
Dinner-  4 eggs and a lifewater
7) School: 
 
  •  none
     I organized nothing
     I cleaned nothing 
    
I am so tired just from going to church today. I feel rather hopeless since I have not improved in energy when all I have done this week practically is sleep. I am very worried about my Career Research class. I am very behind in it and I need to catch up now. I would work on it tonight (despite my brain) but I can't because the pictures that I need are saved at school. I am so stressed. This is not helping me get better. I am trying to eat healthy and get stuff done but I feel so listless and bleh. I plan to go to school tomorrow morning but I am far from having good feelings about it. My class is at 8am and I normally hate getting up that early let alone tomorrow when I will still be sick, and I will be looking terrible and feeling terrible. Ugh. Someone save me.

   FIGHTING!

I woke up from heavy sleep at 2pm. I was thoroughly surprised that I needed that much sleep. I immediately got ready for what was left of my day and headed to pick up Mnonaa to go to church for youth group. She helped our small group make the meal while I was in worship practice. During practice I started overheating and was very tired. I thought I might be sick but nothing came of it. My youth pastor told me to lay down for a bit and so I did. (Sephre interesting story about that ask me later. Oh, and by the way...where is your post? where are you?) Since it is 12:03 I should be going to bed now. I plan to get up around 8:30 since I have class at 12pm. I didn't need to blow my nose as much today though I still cannot breath out of it.

I have a headache from blowing my nose so much and I can barely breath. I went home from class early because there was no Kleenex and I have a constant need to blow my nose to survive. I will be skipping school tomorrow for this same reason. I don't like you evil sickness. Go away.

I felt like I had been hit by a semi-truck when I finally woke up this morning. I have been in constant pain and have refrained from movement as much as possible. It hurts even when I do nothing and it isn't just muscle pain anymore I don't think. Everything hurts but most of all my lower back, my stomach, my chest, and my throat.
I am going to bed asap and probably skipping my 8am class tomorrow. Hopefully I will wake up feeling better and be able to get a lot of stuff done.

So, today was kind of a fail. I didn't eat barely at all, let alone healthy stuff. I messed up my sleep schedule. I didn't drink enough water and I am sitting here writing this while munching on fries. *sigh* My boss didn't help me out at all by turning to me as I was clocking out and telling me to take home all of the extra food. I have an annoying bit of a cough. It is light and tickley and kills my aching stomach muscles. -_-

Act 1

I was talking to Sephre and we decided we need to get our act together. Stop letting ourselves waste our energy and make an effort to improve. So here are my goals. These are the things I need to do.



  1. Go to bed by 12
  2. Get up by 8 even if I don't have a class
  3. Eat three meals a day (not all at once). This has to be real food not junk food and it has to be balanced.
  4. Exercise every day and get a good workout.
  5. Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day (hopefully more) and cut down on my sugar intake.
  6. Read my Bible every day.
  7. Once I get all of my stuff organized, keep it that way.
A more general goal would be to get my homework done before doing anything fun. 

Fighting interwebz!

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.  ~World Health Organization, 1948

In order to change we must be sick and tired of being sick and tired.  ~Author Unknown

Act 1- Scene 1

1) Went to sleep at 1:30am
2) I woke up at 8am but drifted in and out of light sleep until 10am when I got up.
3) I drank about 4 glasses of water today.
4) I read Genesis 4:6-7 and contemplated how I react to correction.
5) I did the stairs 10 times (each time being once up and once down and all sets together without stopping) 6 were running 4 were walking.
6) Eating:
Breakfast- 1 serving Cream of Wheat, 1/4 apple, a hunk of chicken about half of the size of my fist, a drizzle of honey on the cereal
Lunch- 1/4 of an apple and a TV dinner (spicy Caribbean chicken) [chicken, pineapple, black beans, corn, rice]
Snack- popcorn
Dinner- I had a tall glass of milk and a bowl of white chili.
7) I finished all creative writing homework (discussions and writing assignments)
     I organized nothing
     I cleaned nothing

I feel fairly good about today. It was definitely hard to go against my bad habits.
I need to improve getting up on time, water intake, eating habits, and amount of exercise. I don't think I realized how much of a change this actually is for me.

  FIGHTING!
