Progress

I think I am making progress in all areas minus one. The finances are still a lil on the lacking side. i am not working as much as I should be, but I am not sure that with my current academic schedule i could work more. I am going to try and pick up a few one time jobs that will allow me to do some house cleaning and get some cash to spend or to save. Plus, my taxes will be coming in and what not, so I need to split that between my two accounts.

but progress, focusing on the good, because I am doing a good job. sometimes
1. Drinking / Openness -- i have reccently given up drinking liquor because I feel convicted that I shouldn't be drinking it, plus its kinda expensive anyways. haha. So yeah, But I am out in the open with my roommates and other people in my life about my struggle with drinking, and why im drinking and how i want to change. I realized that I have been drinking to make myself socially comfortabale. yikes! Self-confidence issue right there. Not something I can change over night, because I have socail anxiety that resluts from my lack of self confidence. woot woot. again, working on it. The bar scene the other night was terrible, because I walked in Dylan wasn't there, and I didn't know anyone. He came, for a lil bit, left for a lil bit, and then it was just wierd. So yeah, i'll maybe try it again soon.

2. weight loss - well the pounds are melting off as fast as the inches seem to be doing. I guess I had a lot of 'flab' that just needed to be tightened up. So I am working out still, and I am eatting better. I think? Trying not to drink soda, and the worse part is that beer has a lot of calories, so I need to concious of that. i.e. I need to look at my caloric intake before I have a drink to see if i have room in my diet that day to have a beer. Too bad my favorite drinks are heavier. BOO. I'll continue working on it. wish me luck.
