Semi-untitled

I do not miss Facebook at all.  It has almost been a week since I deactivated my account, and I have hardly thought about all those "friends" I have.  The most important friends I have are the ones I still communicate with outside of FB.  I will say that I do think I miss the pictures.  Pictures of my nieces and nephews and other people.  That was the main thing I used to do on FB anyway: picture stalking.  I may activate my account one day just to get the pictures on my account to print out.  We will see.

In the world outside of FB, I have started a tumblr.com account.  Those interested in it can view it here.  I'm very surprised that I was never interested in tumblr before.  I think I now spend more time on tumblr than I do on all my social websites combined.  & although I'm on tumblr more, I'm not as easily sucked into it as I was by FB.  Tumblr is easier to navigate & post findings as opposed to Blogger.  I actually moved my Plagiarist blog from here to there.  I thought about moving this blog to tumblr also, but I'm too lazy to do so.  Plus, if I did that I wouldn't have access to other Blogger accounts!  So here this blog will stay.

School is moving along nicely this semester.  I find all of my classes to be interesting, and I haven't yet been bogged down too heavily with assignments.  Alas, there have only been two weeks of class.  I thought I would go crazy with having four classes a day, three days a week, but I think I actually prefer it to last semester's schedule.

My workout routine is still going strong.  I haven't lost any more weight since the 5 lbs. I lost the first week, but I think I am ok with that since I have been working out almost every day and am slowly starting to see changes in my body.  I had a great workout at the gym this morning-- I ran the mile in 9:20!  Still not my best time, but definitely a major improvement from when I started working out three weeks ago.  Since I've actually put my mind to it & got my lazy ass out of the house to start working harder to become fit & healthy, I now wish that I had not given away all those clothes last year that I couldn't fit into.  I guess this means that when I reach my goal weight I will have a rewarding shopping day =)  The day I reach my goal weight is going to be a fabulous one.

Speaking of shopping spree, I was putting away laundry today when I thought to myself that I need some new workout clothes.  Hopefully I won't go with that thought and splurge too much.  Ya never know.... =)

I love how much better I feel about life.  Physically & mentally.  I know I've asked this before, but why did I ever stop working out in the first place?  I still haven't been able to incorporate a yoga routine into my schedule, but I hope I will be able to soon.  I want to be more fit & flexible again!
