Ok I have a lot to update everyone on! On Thursday night my mom and I were talking about how one of my favorite performer's in the Broadway musical Spring Awakening was leaving the show on Sunday. So later on Thursday my mom called again and asked how I would like to go up to NYC (sister is in school there) and see the show? Of course I was shocked, because my family isn't made of money. Well I had a final at 5:30 Friday night, so I went to Charleston after that and flew to NYC at 6:30 Saturday...visited and stuff with my sister and then went to the show, which was GREAT. We waited outside over 2 hours until all the cast came out and had pictures and autographs! So then my sister and I came back early Sunday morning. I had a final at 9 am on Monday (so had to leave the house around 6:30) and then graduation Monday afternoon! After that my family all went to a restaurant and ate and mingled and my dad gave a nice toast, to which I had to respond and thank everyone for being part of my life and all and I started sobbing, which I didn't think I'd do, but I think it was because I was so tired and just relieved it was done!
So plans for the next year now that I'm out of school are...I have two jobs right now and I'm going to be applying for internships and jobs anywhere and everywhere in the things I'm thinking about going to grad school for, that way I don't "waste" money on going to grad school for something I don't want to do!
Diet wise I've been ok even though things have been crazy and going to NYC and all. Still frustrated with such little weight loss, but I think it'll eventually get there. The main thing is I just want to lose this tummy - that's where the majority of my extra weight goes and I hate when people think I'm pregnant; not that there's anything wrong with that, but I'm NOT and don't want people to keep asking because it makes me feel fat. :( Anyway, just want to get through the holidays without gaining (hopefully losing) and then the beginning of the year I'd love to step it up and really lose. Thanks everyone for the graduation congrats and the weight loss encouragement!
