a certain shade of green.
“i think i grew a gray watching you procrastinate. what are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?”
well it finally happened. anthony and i finally committed to an exercise regime to get in shape, and tonight was the first night we actually tried the couch to 5k program (http://www.c25k.com/). it involved some aches and pains, not to mention some irritation due to the fact that i absolutely loathe running or anything like it as a form of exercise. i’ll keep with it for a while, but if i still hate it in a week or so… i will find something else.
i seem to be getting things back together a little bit… maybe. i’m trying to break out of the funk, calmly and easily. i figure if i take it one thing at a time, i might have a chance of getting control over everything again and not feeling so overwhelmed (and a hell of a lot less moody). most of the things i vented troubles about last week have been sort of resolved, and i’m on my way to figuring out the rest, like school. i have one month to get all my work done, so i just need to be diligent about it. not running around like a maniac and trying to get everything done at once, trying to slowly but surely tackle the mountain of homework. and if i don’t… i will just keep it in mind for next time. i am not taking classes over the summer, and i am enrolling in the web development associate’s degree program at austin community college this fall.
i haven’t quite found a solution to the money though; there must be some sort of leak in my bank account (through my debit card, no doubt). but you know, it’s always been that way, and i’ve always been fine. not great, but fine. i’m definitely excited about the school thing though. i will always see myself as a writer, of course, but i have loved messing with computers and the internet since high school. i took web mastering to fulfill a credit requirement, and i absolutely loved it, so at least as a transitional thing (if not more) this degree is going to be cool, useful, and some fun. i just hate the idea of being in school for another two years :/ blah.
