They decide and the shotgun sings the song
Sep. 3rd, 2008 04:14 pmSo, I'm back on the working out wagon, and for about two weeks now I've been eating pretty healthy. Lots of veggies, fish, bulgur, fruit and whole-grain rolls. I'm not sure how long it'll last, but I am trying to lose 10 kgs by the time I'm done with my dissertation.
I know it's a little ambitious, but I already lost a pound on the food thing alone which is super encouraging. I'm so not one for starving myself, but I've stopped eating candy and cakes with my coffee, less sugar in my hot beverages and cut out junkfood, and it's awesome that I can still eat and not feel hungry all the time, and still actually lose some weight. (Also? My home-made hummus is awesome.)
The working out is also great, although I am pretty sore all the time!
Dissertation actually moving forward. Had a meeting with my adviser which went about 100000% better than I had hoped. He said he'd do anything to help, and was very realistic about the end result, which was great. I'm starting to feel like I might just be able to do this. (As opposed to, 'well I have to do it, so.')
I have however started clenching my jaw and teeth. It's not actual grinding, just clenching, which is annoying. I know it's stress-related, so I hope that it'll stop once I had my dissertation in. As of right now, I am actually considering buying one of thoese teething toys you can freeze. To prevent myself from not clenching my jaw, my mouth is either wide open or i have my tongue poking out which is also kind of straining.
I'm also growing my hair out. It's part laziness and the cost, and partly me actually wanting long hair again. When it's all long, I'll chop it off, just wait and see. But yes.
Someone should come vacuum my apartment. And keep me company. I'm such a hermit, at the moment.
I can't wait for the new season of teeveeeeee. OMG, that's going to be annoying with the whole school thing, but man.
On that note, CW! What the hell is wrong with you? You promote the shit out of OTH and Gossip Girl (I'm sorry, but GG means Gilmore Girls) and that steaming pile of fail that is the knock-off 90210 show before it's even begun (sorry Corbett, but it's true), but Supernatural gets no love. What the hell? You couldn't send Jensen to be awkward with Letterman or Jimmy kimmel, or at the very least send Jared to charm Mizz Tyra or something? Or how about some promos that has NEW PICTURES??? For shame, CW, FOR SHAME.
Right. Studying.
