Haha. Look at my last 3 posts. 12/26/09, 9/1/10… and now 12/6/11.
Lost my fulltime job due to budget cuts. Am now subbing and working for RGIS, an independent inventory company that inventories various stores in the area. It’s pretty fun, but the hours are weird and the intra-company drama is annoying.
Joel is on a business trip for eLogic right now. Back in NJ. He was there for 3 months earlier this year (Monday through Thursday every week for 3 months!) which really sucked. I don’t like him being on business trips. The house is empty and sad.
Ben has sort of moved out… Dani finally moved into the Bergen house and Ben is kind of living there… but hasn’t moved all of his stuff out so I don’t really know what is happening with that.
I’m looking forward to Christmas this year. Even though we didn’t have much money to buy things. I just like hanging out with my friends and family.
This year, we have made a ton of new friends/made better friends with people we were acquainted with previously, which has been fantastic! I didn’t really know that it was possible to make such good friends as a grown-up. But I couldn’t imagine our lives without Sadaf, Matt, Pam, Stacy and Philson. It’s like they were always there even though we’ve only really been hanging out with them for about a year.
I very much thought that I had a lot to write about, but once I opened up the computer… my mind has gone blank. This happens a lot. Which is frustrating because I would love to get back into writing. Which I talk about a lot because I used to write all the time in high school and now I just don’t seem to have time even though I have tons of time and I don’t seem to have ideas that are worthwhile. I shoot myself down before the pen hits the paper or my fingers hit the keyboard. I would love to write professionally. I’ve always wanted to write a best selling novel, but I feel like my ideas aren’t interesting enough. Then I read AMAZING books like “The Night Circus” by Erin Morgenstern and it just solidifies in my mind the fact that I can’t write. LAME.
This year, I’ve lost almost 30 pounds! Which is super exciting. Well, it’s really been more like this year and a half, but who is counting? I’d love to get down to a healthier weight. So I’m trying to go to the gym and actually follow the weight watchers program without sucking at life like I previously have. I went to the gym today which was exciting. I’m trying to go to the gym or go for a walk at least three times a week… except I keep waffling on which way I’m counting a week. I feel like I should count it as Thursday to Thursday so it lines up with weight watchers, but I don’t know. Oh well.
I know it’s a bit early for resolutions, but there are some things that I want to work on…
1. Losing weight, being healthier.
2. Writing. I’d like to write at least something every day… this blog would probably be a good place to do that.
3. Emotions. I get frustrated way to easily and I really need to learn to be more zen and not let things get to me as much.
So yeah, hopefully I can work on some of these things and make things better for me and those around me.
