Weight loss goals...

I am attempting to lose weight. So far, I haven't been doing much exercising besides the walking I do at work but I have been eating more fruits for breakfast and I have starting eating a salad more regularly for lunch. I also have been drinking more water and I usually do not drink anything other than water. I try to make sure I drink 2 big cups everyday at work. A couple of days ago I ordered a full body cleanse kit. It is from DHerbs and they talk about it all the time on The Steve Harvey Morning Show. So since I had the money and I am trying to lose weight I decided to give it a try. So I can't wait until I can get started. I hear you can lost between 20 and 30 pounds from it so that would definitely be a good start for me. I just have to figure out what I will do once the cleanse is over. It is only for 20 days so after that I will have to find something to help me keep the weight off. I downloaded an app that someone recommended to use for exercise so I plan to use that when I exercise. I should start by Tuesday since I still have to get it from the Post Office. I plan on recording my starting weight and taking before pictures so I can compare my progress. Hopefully I can lose enough to look somewhat decent in a swimsuit.

No luck so far....

Well the week is over and I have not received any calls from any of the jobs I had applied to over the weekend so I'm hoping I will get some luck next week. I haven't been job hunting since the weekend so I am going to start looking again to see if anything new has been put up in the past couple days that I can apply to. My goal is to find something by the end of July if I can. I would like to be able to have another job before the Fall semester starts since I have a class I am taking on Saturday, it will be nice to get a job where I do not have to work weekends so that way I won't have to worry about having to explain to my boss that I can't work weekends anymore and if I do I can only do Sundays. I hope everything works out for me. I have about two and a half months to find something. I hope I can get what I want in that time frame. Wish me luck!!!

Summer semester...

Summer semester is going along smoothly. I am doing a good job getting all of my work turned in on time. You would think that it would be hard to keep up since there are assignments due every other day. This half of the summer session is only six weeks long so everything is due back to back. I am ready to get to the Fall semester. I am hoping that I will be able to keep up with my Fall classes as good as I am with my Summer because I will be taking five classes.

The job search continues...

Well I am officially getting serious about job hunting again. One of the girls at my job just got hired at my old company for an administrative job and I am jealous. Why couldn't that have been me? As long as I have been trying to get an administrative job and I wouldn't mind going back to my old company. I still miss it even though I have been gone for over a year now. With her getting a position that I want, it gives me hope that I still have a chance to get something. I just need to start applying and try my luck. Hopefully I will be able to get a job offer in the next couple of months. I am so ready to get out of the job I am doing. I have been working in the same department for over six years now and its not something I want to do for the rest of my life so I want to get something in administration. Something that will be closely related to what I am going to school for that way I won't have to wait until after I graduate to get experience. I just hope I can get something and of course I hope I won't have to work weekends and I can get paid a little bit better than what I'm getting paid now. Wish me luck...

Spring semester is over!...

The spring semester is finally over!! I made it through. In both of my classes I got a B- so I am proud of myself for getting through it. Now I can scratch those two classes off my list and move on to the next ones. Summer semester starts in a couple days and I have to stay focused. It is more fast paced and I will have assignments due every other day so hopefully I will be able to keep up. I'm trying to take three classes and I was trying to take four but the way my financial aid looked I was going to have to pay out of pocket again but now it looks like I'm still going to have to pay out of pocket so I need to figure out if I'm going to add the other class back or not since either way I'll have to pay out of pocket unless I bite the bullet and take out a loan which I would hate to have to do since I have loans from years ago that I haven't even been paying so I think I'm more scared to take out a loan. I guess I better figure out what I'm going to do quick since the semester starts in a couple days. I almost got myself excited because I was thinking about going for a minor but the classes I need are only offered on campus and with a full time job and two kids to take care of its not easy trying to find time to take on campus classes. The only thing I can do is see if they offer equivalent classes at the community college and hope they offer them online then I can have the credits hopefully transferred. I want to do as much as I can before it gets time to graduate. It's graduation weekend now and every year when it gets this time I always wish it were me but in a couple years if everything works out it will be my time and I can not wait. It will be a long time coming. I can just imagine how excited I'll be when it's my turn. Then I will have to figure out what I am going to do after. Either I can go back for another bachelors or get my masters. I guess we'll see when the time comes.

Long time....

It has been about 3 months since I last posted. Where is the time going? Well I don't think a lot has been going on. The Spring semester will be over at the end of the week and I hope I can make it through. I came out of one class with a B- so now I am just waiting on this last class to finish and find out what my final grade is. I just need to make it out with a C+ and I am at the border line with a C. I was just at a 71% which was a C- and I was 6% away from getting to a C+ but now that my final project was done I got all 100 points for it so I am excited I am currently at a 76%. Now I am a smidgen away from getting that C+. We had one more forum post to do which I am done with and it is due today by 5. The last thing we have to do for this class is the final exam and hopefully I will do okay on it but as long as I can get that C+ I will be happy. I should know by the time I do the final. I am just ready to start focusing on the next semester which is Summer for me. I am not getting any breaks until hopefully next summer so I'm trying to knock out the last of the classes I have and I only have 3 semesters to do them in if everything goes well. I am signed up to take 3 classes this summer but I am trying to add one more if I can sign up as a guest student at the community college. I can't believe this is the last week of the spring semester and the summer semester starts next Wednesday. I still need to find out about my financial aid for the summer so I should be looking into that quick and I need to find time to get my books. I am ready to get started and get summer over so that I can get to the Fall semester then I can do next Spring after that I will be in my Junior classes then my Senior and I will be ready to graduate. I hope I can make it to that cap and gown moment that is all I want. Hopefully these semesters will fly by.
