WOO!

I got the job at Chili's! WOOOOO!!

The woman who interviewed me was super nice and she said, "I'm so glad that I like you! We've been hiring 2 new servers a week, to prepare for October since it's our busiest month. But the other server I hired this week, I thought, 'Oh that's too bad. I don't really like you.' So I'm very glad you're here!"
I have orientation on Thursday :)

AND as I was walking out of the restaurant, this gay guy that I've never met said to me in passing, "You look very pretty today!"

WOOOOOOO!

It's Thursday!

Which means it's almost Friday! AND it's measure and weigh day!

Weight: 142 (boooo...I blame it on lady things)
Total Overall Inches Lost: 8.5

Also, I would like to add that - when I started - my scale said my Body Fat Percentage was 30% and now it's down to 28%. Woo!
I just have to work on drinking more water. I'm a terrible water-drinker. I don't like it. But I know that water is good for all sorts of stuff. Like...your body. And I heard that drinking more water helps lessen migraines? I'll hafta do some research on that, because for 1 or 2 weeks of every month I get these crazy bad migraines. And I know what's to blame. Stupid lady things. *sigh*

Anyway! Enough of that. I've been handing out resumes at various restaurants, and I'm pretty hopeful of getting another job soon! I handed in an application at Chili's and spoke to one of the managers. He had me come in the next day to take this test (you have to take a test to work at Chili's...as a server anyway), which I passed! So now I'm just waiting to hear from him because he's going to set up another interview for me with a different manager. I've got my fingers crossed!
WHOAH! The guy just called me and I have an interview on Sundaaaayyyyy! Sweet!

I finished scanning all of my old pictures, now I just have to run them through Photoshop to get all the dust specks off them and stuff. I'm so happy to have them on my laptop!

Well...until next time!

Oh BOY!

Guess what I'm doing RIGHT NOW?!

Scanning old pictuuuuuures!!! That's right! I brought back a crapload of my old pictures from High School and stuff with me, when I went to visit Canada. So now I'm borrowing James' scanner and scanning my little heart out! You have no idea how much joy this is bringing me :) I didn't bring back any REALLY old pictures, like from my childhood. Just stuff from High School. But that's still pretty good! I'm just so happy to be able to have all these pictures that I've had hanging around for forever on my laptop! Here's one:



That's me in Grade 10, at the thrift store right across from my High School. I think this was taken during exams when my friend Michelle and myself had some free time in between tests and needed to de-stress. I know, I'm pretty cool right?

Yeahhhhhh........

Guess what yesterday was...?!

MEASURE AND WEIGH DAY!
It's been a full week since I started this Herbalife thing, and so far I must say I'm pretty darn pleased with the program. And I have to pee less than I did when I started. That's nice.
Weight: 139
Total Overall Inches Lost: 5
2 pounds and 5 inches in a week is not too shabby! Now I measure and weigh every week so we'll see what kind of progress I make. I can't lie, though. I'm REALLY excited because my weight hasn't been in the 130s since I was a teenager.

Aaaaaaanyway.

I was reading through my old posts on here and I gotta say...I was a very sad little being. And very profane. No wonder nobody read those things! So sad and angry.
I also think it's really funny how much I praised my University roommates, because my last couple of months living with them ended up being some of the worst months OF MY LIFE. Evil girls. Evil, consistently drunk and high girls. A few of my friends can testify to their evilness too.

I just realized that I have nothing else really to say. OH!

The sky was AMAZING yesterday! The sun was starting to set and there was a thunderstorm brewin' so the clouds were amazing. I took a picture! Let's see if I can show you...



Yay! Hopefully you can see that. It was a pretty fantastic sky. I love the skies here.

Welp...that's all I've got for today.

Wellity Wellity Wellity! Looky hurr...

It was suggested to me some time ago that I take up this blogging business again. I thought that nobody read this, hence my severely long absence. WELL NO MORE!
Since the last time I blogged, a few things have changed:
1. I live in a different country. Some would call it the better or worse country. A country that is being run by a President who's last name starts with 'O' and ends in 'bama'. Let's not get started on that.
2. I have a job that's NOT in daycare. But I think there's still the same amount of bodily fluids involved.
3. I have a boyyyyyfrieeeeend. His name is James and he's pretty great. So...if you hear the name James...that's who I'm talking about.

Oh geez, I feel like I'm 15 again and writing in my diary! As my new (and fantastically awesome) roommate would say: Aw! Tender!

Ummmm....
so.

What to blog about.

OH!

I started this new diet kinda thinger called Herbalife. Surprisingly, it doesn't involve smoking copious amounts of weed. As not fun as that would be. This girl at my work is on it and she said she used to be a size 13 and now she's a size 4. So I suppose I could document my experience with it on here.
It'll be like the American Boring Bridgette Jones.

When I started the program last Thursday I weighed 141 lbs. When I weighed myself 3 days later I was 141. BUT! My scale also has a Body Fat Percentage Measuring Thing and I went from 30% to 29%. And we're supposed to measure like...a billion different places on our body to track our 'inch loss' and I've apparently already lost 1.5 inches total. But I feel like that could just be inaccurate measuring on my behalf.
I've also noticed that I have to PEE. Like...ALL. THE. TIME. Lots of peeing. It's practically all I do now.

Oh God, no one wants to read this.


P.S. That James guy that I mentioned took that picture that's at the top of my blog. Of the pretty sunset. He also has a website: Mastermindesigns
It's a little under construction so...yeah. But go visit it! And then tell everyone you know! Then tell everyone you don't know.
