A little bit of suagar free jello

Seriously.
I’m probably going to cry myself to sleep tonight over the VS fashion show. I can’t even handle this.

Bringing back a boatload of healthy foods to...
greek yogurt, grapefruit, hummus, veggies, apples, whole wheat bread… love love love and love. If only I had exponential money to eat like this all the time? Heck to the yes. Bring it on. Time to kick my butt in gear this last couple weeks I have a free gym membership. MOTIVATION.

Missed a day! Oh well. I am thankful for my boyfriend’s family, who loves me like I am already a part of them. they ask us when we are going to get married. His sister and I actually created a plan to get a duplex and live together. It is pretty awesome. His dad, who just basically met me, is wanting to take ben and I out and get us BOTH christmas gifts tomorrow. I am just floored at how...

Today I am thankful for music. Such an amazing part of life! Music has been, and always will be, a huge part of my life. Being in band for 7 years was a life changing experience. I am thankful for the gift of being able to actually perform music. I am thankful I can appreciate music in all of it’s forms. Music calms me down, music makes me cry, music makes me laugh, music motivates me, music...

Sad fact:
I left Ben’s at 1:30. He is home now, and I am at my home. It is driving me absolutely insane. I already miss being around him.

Today I am thankful for my boyfriend’s friends at school, because they all accept me and love me so much. They have become my own friends. It is so nice to meet genuinely caring and generous people still, especially in a place where I don’t live all the time. It makes it so hard to leave, because I have such a great time with everyone. Today we had a friend’s thanksgiving, and...

Today I am thankful for AMAZING food! Ben and I made taco chili in the crock pot, and it was the first meal I’ve ever made in a crock pot. It turned out to be one of the best meals I have had in a while. I am so thankful I have never gone to bed hungry, and I have always been able to get food. That is one of the most simplest things to be thankful for that we forget. Way too many people in...

My thankfull days-
November 16th- That day I was thankful for my friends, who calm me down and can make me laugh even when we all are completely stressed out. Also, the library!! November 17th- Today I was thankful for HEAT in cars and houses, and also a safe arrival to Elgin to Natalie’s house. It was so cold that day, and Natalie’s car was without heat. A 4 hour drive without heat is not fun, so I was...

Today I am thankful for the internet! Although it causes a lot of drama sometimes, it really brings people closer together. I have also learned so much valuable information from the internet I would not have learned otherwise. Sometimes I think we take advantage of all the technology in our lives, because almost all of us would have no clue what we would do without it.

I think I am signing up for a 2.5 mile walk/run in the beginning of december. I don’t know if I can get myself to that point by then, but it is going to be great motivation to try! I think I am going to start a blog so I can talk about all of this stuff somewhere. My friends here absolutely do not care, and I’m sure ben gets sick of hearing it too. I feel like I need to start being...

Today I am thankful for my friends. I have had almost all of them come and go for as long as I can remember, but the ones I have now are pretty great. I’m not quite sure how I would be surviving college without them right now.

Today I am thankful for my nieces and nephews! They all mean the world to me, and make me smile even when I am having a very overwhelming weekend. They are the reason I come home. They are the reason I am striving to be a teacher. Riley (the oldest), Regan, and Dylan Nathan, my little (well, big!) waterbug. Well, the last one is Ben’s nephew Ian. But hopefully someday he will be...

Today I am thankful for being HOME! Homecooked healthy food that actually tastes good,  meeting with my IEA mentor, finally seeing Nick again, and spending time with my mom are all things I greatly take advantage of most of the time. It’s so nice to have my own room, have my own bathroom, be back in a town where there are places to go (seriously morton people, don’t complain till...

Today, I am thankful for the time I can spend exercising and eating healthy. It is frustrating at times of course, but I feel so much better after I do it. I love my zumba class, it keeps me motivated and it is so much fun. Eating healthier at college is so hard, with everyone eating crap, and the cafeteria with slim pickings of decent food. I feel so much better when I get the nutrients I need...

Today I am thankful for my education! I am very fortunate to get such an opportunity to become a future teacher. My parents have been so supportive of my journey! I have grown up and changed so much in the past 2.5 years of college, and it is only continuing. I am thankful I have found a major that I am completely in love with, and that I have great teachers and a great program to learn from. ...

Today, I am thankful for my abilities and my passion for teaching others. I went to a presentation called 3E love today, which stands for Empower, Educate, and Embrace. It was a very moving speech from a guy named Stevie Hopkins. I am so thankful to be able to see how great my life is, and see that no matter what abilities or disabilities you have life can be appreciated.  I am so thankful that...

So.. I'm starting this thing.
Hate me if you will, but I really like it. Each day in November, my boyfriend’s sister is giving something she is thankful for in some way in her blog. So, here it is. The things I am thankful for! November 7th- Today, I am thankful for my boyfriend. I know, cliche way to start. I just had a realization today at how well I have it. We mesh together so well, and I’m so thankful...

Library time
I’ve spent the past 5 hours in the library with Ben. Most people would kill themselves, but this has been absolutely perfect. Thursday night we went to a bar and just sat down and relaxed with a few beers, it was perfect. The rest of the weekend we spent at his sister’s house, which is always an amazing time. His sister and her husband genuinely like me so much, and it makes me so...

Fat To Fit: Fast Fat Burners! →
uberfit: 1. Catch the running bug. You’ll continue to burn fat after your jog: People who run for at least four hours a week melt more calories than non-runners, even when they’re not running, a Yale University School of Medicine study reports. 2. Crank it up early. Working out harder during the first… Some of these are interesting.

Nervous and Excited!
Off to my first experience in a preschool classroom, where I am actually directly working and interacting with the children. I am so nervous, yet very excited! I hope my teacher is great, and I hope that everything goes (for the most part) smoothly. Wish me luck!

People frustrate me.
I just saw someone talk about how they need to only eat 500 calories a day to lose weight. Are you KIDDING me? Do you not know any basic knowledge about how the body works? One of my friends said she needed to do 300 crunches after she ran for her “ab” workout. Yeah, good luck getting results with that. And all of this DIET talk. I am just so bitter today. I should not be allowed on...

I'm feeling so down on myself lately.
And by lately, I mean today. I was doing SO well for a little bit, but it had to hit the fan at somepoint. My friends are acting so strange. I find that I get lonely even hours after Ben goes back to school or I leave. I am so ready to be done with this shit. I’ve gotten into habits that I do NOT want to be a part of. School is stressing me out, I am getting slammed with projects and...
