week in review: back…(from outer space)…

Linking up with Meghan at Clean Eats Fast Feets for the week in review. I’ve been MIA for a while. Like, since mid-November. I just got bored with the same-old “I worked, did homework, and read books” posts, so I stopped writing them. I’m planning to be a bit more active now, after my break.… Continue reading week in review: back…(from outer space)…

week in review: cooking, cleaning, and challenges

Linking up with Meghan over at Clean Eats, Fast Feets. This week was fall break for me, and it’s been a pretty good week, apart from a near-meltdown at work last Monday. I got my grade for my Writing Commercial Fiction  class:  I made a 90! (Which is an A- at my school, not an… Continue reading week in review: cooking, cleaning, and challenges

week in review:success, of a sort

Linking up with Meghan over at Clean Eats, Fast Feets to feel like I accomplished something for the week. Usually I have an overly ambitious idea of what I can get accomplished during the week. This week, I feel like I did much, much better at actually accomplishing what I wanted to. I tried something a… Continue reading week in review:success, of a sort

fat is a security blanket

There’s been a lot going on lately.  I’m dealing with some emotional issues related to the ex that I (might) feel like talking about soon.  For now, here’s the gist of conversations I’ve had recently with Super Mom and The Saint…. *** Why are we always trying to lose weight?  Obviously, because we need to. … Continue reading fat is a security blanket

I’m the fashion police, didn’t you know?

You know, sometimes, I really shouldn’t be allowed out in public. Seriously. My game face, well, it’s just not always that good. So, last night, Baby Brother and I went out with my Other Brother (Baby Brother’s best friend, whom I haven’t seen in probably a year), Other Brother’s girlfriend, and two friends of theirs.… Continue reading I’m the fashion police, didn’t you know?

when did I become Suzy Homemaker?

…apparently, about 48 hours ago. Who knew? Not me. Here’s how I spent my weekend: Last weekend, while I was shopping-til-I-wanted-to-drop, I found this awesome new comforter. Red is my second favorite color, and I love Asian-inspired things, so it was a natural choice. Since I don’t have a headboard on my bed, I ordered… Continue reading when did I become Suzy Homemaker?

the benefits of a little “me time”

School starts on Tuesday, and I’m starting to stress a little bit, what with taking 17 hours this semester and STILL not sleeping quite right. So, Thursday, I spent the day on “me time.” Seriously. All day. I got my hair colored. It needed it BADLY, but that was one of the things I let… Continue reading the benefits of a little “me time”
