Firelair's Journal, 25 October 2011

Feeling great today! Wish I could have done kick-boxing, but worked on weight training, especially arms today which was a nice change of pace!

Made a healthy lunch for my BF and I to share (and save money, not going to Jimmy John's Gormet Sub shop), which we ate on campus after I finished one of my homework assignments that I ran out of time to do! I've been really good about not procrastinating, which is something I'm terrible about...but with literally no extra time allotted between assignments, I'm under-the-gun all of the time...so if I procrastinated because I "work better under pressure", I no longer need to, because I'm under constant pressure...TIME! I also got grades since it's the end of midterms (or should be, minus the fact that we don't receive our Biology Midterm until Thursday...). Overall grades, and for the second time in my life, I have straight A's! I'm super proud! =D Doing everything in my power to maintain these grades, which ought to boost my previous 3.88 GPA a little higher, I'm hoping!!

Currently feeling: Really good! Just need to motivate myself to work on all of the assignments that are beginning to bury me, and I'll be perfect!
Overall throughout the day: Felt like I used all of the time I had toward goals, didn't find anything to alter my happy state, so it's all good! ;)

Hmmmm... home made lunches are the BEST! :) I'm sorry to hear you're under such pressure. I hope you handle it okay. Hopefully things will be better in the near future. Glad to see good weigh-ins from you. :)

Fantastic news about your grades, good work Firelair :-). AND you are still exercising and sticking to good food choices - I think this is awesome... I am sure it is hard to juggle and not give in to "fast food" when yo are under this much pressure.... If you can do this, you are capable of ANYTHING, keep it up :-)

Thanks tons for the support, Keld & Sk1nny! I appreciate the kind words, and straying from fast food hasn't been as difficult as it would seem...it's getting up earlier than I want to so I can pack healthy snacks and lunches that's the hard part for me! LOL! ;D
