Yeaa... it's been one of those series of days that just roll into each other with lots of work to do and no time to do it and me telling myself that if i'm not really working then i shouldn't really be blogging either...even though i did finally get around to doing some work but the blogging part...naaaah! I guess for once i didn't have very much to say but i'm back now...kinda sorta!
Soo... what have I been up to? let's see.....
aah, i'm trying to actually spend some more days in school now instead of working from home - so all images up there are from school work (except from my likkle macbook that i love so much and just had to get a picture of... lol)...
Then, i've been exercising...i've managed to keep it to a 5-day (per week) minimum so far and i'm pretty impressed with myself. It's basically just been cardio, yoga and pilates...
now i just hope i can drag myself out of bed early enough for my pilates class tomorrow :$
For whatever reason, the weather has been crap the last couple of days and doesn't seem to be getting any better. Unfortunately, my body "system" reacts horribly to rapid changes in weather so right now, i've got a cold/cough and i've totally lost my voice. I sound....ODD! (but apparently it's amusing to others :| ) ... so now, nyquil and i have a love thang going on - it's the only thing that gets me to sleep peacefully without any random congestion-induced headaches. I love you Nyquil!!!!
see (below), just last week, it was nice and sunny and people were laying in the grass and driving with their tops down... why did the sunshine have to go away?!?!?!
tell me why?!?!
Oh, and these last set of images are just - random! I had to take a picture of the girl's outfit 'cause i really really could NOT understand what she was going for with it?!?! lmao...oh, and mama got herself a new pair of shoes ;)
Other than that, it's more of the same really. Working hard on my research 'cause i'm taking a 2wk break before the end of semester for a family event and i'm trying to make up for future lost time *gasp* wish me luck?!
off to get meself 8 yummy hours of shut-eye!
xoxo ;)
if you look riiiight in the center of the bubble, you'll find me. I like my bubble - most times. Other times i get reaaallly bored and feel the need to expand the bubble. And then things get confusing/complicated and i know it's time to shrink the bubble back to safe-size. hehe! What can i say?...i'm a simple gal and i like simple things :)
Been listening to the Donald Lawrence album all day and that song, I Speak Life, seemed to be exactly what I needed for the day. It's been a rainy day - in more ways than one. And now i understand the saying "When it rains, it pours." But as my optimistic self, i'll see the rain as showers of blessings and nothing else. Today, I speak life!
aaah, it's about that time to take a step back again and refocus. I realize that every once in a while i get really distracted by life and forget the things that are most important to me. So i give myself a check every once in a while and a "tune-up"...lol...kinda like the way you would a car, to make sure it's in perfect running condition. So, what does the tune-up entail?... basically it's just less TV, way less useless internet usage, fewer calls (i think i've managed to cut down on calls already anyways), no junk food, more Bible-reading, more praying, more focus on schoolwork, daily workout ...hmm, i think that's about it!

watching the the time go by

watching The Notebook. I think this is the first time i'm actually watching the entire movie... gives me the warm and fuzzies :) I actually find that i love most books by Nicholas Sparks that i've read and the movie adaptations haven't been half-bad...The first book of his that i read was The Wedding and i loved every second of it. I think it's a very good read for men - married, or thinking about it - but alas, no man really wants to "get in touch with his feelings." Ok, i'm getting back to my movie now...
I feel good about today...about the upcoming week. I've got so much to do and seemingly too little time, but I know i can can can :)
I've decided that i'm gonna start taking more pictures...even of the seemingly mundane moments (and i guess i get a bunch of those in my lil' village). But now, when i look back on the things that seemed so simple, I find that those are the things that make me smile... and i wish i took more pictures. So yea, i'm gonna be that annoying person holding a camera all the time - trying to freeze every moment. I'll keep you updated ;)
"i may still not know what i want to be when i grow up, but i do know that someday i want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. and the walls that aren’t covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. when i leave the house i will be going to a job i love, and i’ll return to a person i love. so, that’s the dream i’m working on."
