is like a box of chocolates? no, definitely not. it’s such a heavy, complicated, happy topic. i’d like to think i’m completely content with my life but that would only be true if i’m doing exactly what i want and doin’ it successfully.
i just recently went to the doctors for a routine checkup and they weighed me on that dreaded scale where they have to push that stupid weight to the right, to the right, more to the right. W.T.H. let’s just say i gained 10+ lbs compared to last year. i think it’s due to a combination of moving out of the parental’s house and moving to an office that caters breakfast and has happy hour. damn you, panera bread! though both moves were really great, it’s not so great when the fat just stays in and around my belly. why do i not have those taiwanese stick skinny girl genes???? ok wait, i have to confess. i also eat past midnight so that might be the main culprit. that is totally my bad so to say i’m not content with my life is really just all my fault.
time to take control. when i celebrated new years with the fam, my mom, the spiritual, always-improving woman she is, had us go around the table and say our resolutions. when it got to my turn, first thing was…lose 15 lbs. second thing was…learn more photography and go out and take more pictures. OMG…i just looked down at the bottom right corner of my screen and realized it’s already freaking APRIL!??!?!?!?!?! wo de ma ya…
4 and a half months ago, those were my goals. what have i done since then? i don’t want to admit it but i actually gained 2 lbs i think…and photography? well…that’s slowly brewing. the real question for myself is will it become a profession that can support my lifestyle or remain a hobby and fun, random gigs. (let’s do dis, tiff!)
i think this post was more for me, a reflection of what i’ve been doing so far in 2010 and what really needs to be done. like now, at this VERY INSTANT.
anyway, i work well under pressure so i have a little over half a year left to complete my goals. like in college, i might just lag until the very end but regardless, i’m confident i’ll get my shit done.
and because i believe every blogpost should come with some visuals, *whisper* and because i’m at work so i don’t have access to my home computer files *end whisper*, here’s a pic i found on my oldddddd photobucket account.
no, my finger is not up dozer’s butt. 2007 – a year i was 10+lbs lighter
