the non-narrisstic "semester of me"

Question: Did I actually keep the hopeful (but half-assed) promise from my last post to update my blog regularly?

Answer: No.

Question: Did I want do update my blog regularly, but it just kept slipping my mind & then I got pulled into the never-ending tunnel of doom, otherwise known as finals?

Answer: Yes.

And in my opinion, the fact that I wanted to update my blog is a pretty good start. Granted I didn't necessarily follow through (like, at all), but that doesn't mean that my blog was forgotten. I've actually been keeping a list on my phone of topics I've wanted to write about. That may sound like a lame excuse, but it's not an excuse so it can't be lame. HA! In order to avoid the sophomore slump, and to occupy myself because I had no boy to occupy my time (read hotel heartbreak for more info), I had a self-proclaimed "semester of me". In retrospect I didn't need to call it a semester of me because every semester of my life is pretty much all

just me at the gym... lol jk i wish i looked like this

about me (in the most non-narcisstic way possible), but my latest "semester of me" was all about bettering myself. AKA I went to the gym everyday of the week, ate extremely healthy (minus the late night drunchies and occasional stressed-out binge sessions) & threw myself into my school work. All in all I have to say it was the most successful semester of me I've had to date. I kicked ass with my grades this semester, lost 17 pounds
and worked on being more cool, calm & collected and not so sarcastic (because it can come off as insensitive and mean a lot of the time without me realizing it). So.... did I completely put my blog in the backseat? Yeah, I did. But I did so in order to work on me. And now that I'm not completely consumed by school and am home for the summer, I can 100% pinky swear that I will update my blog regularly. Third time's a charm, right?
