Worst blogger ever? Perhaps…

Hello Blog!

How’s it going? Long time no see. I fail at blogging regularly. Wow, seriously, it’s June 1st and I haven’t blogged since mid-April. I’ll try to be better about that in das future.

Since April 19th, I’ve graduated from grad school. I am a MASTER bwahahahaha or something. :-) Not having classes is still really surreal. I keep thinking I have homework to do or books that I’ve been assigned to read or whatever. I think it’ll be even more surreal in September. Even though I’ve been taking summer classes for my Master’s, September always feels like when School starts… so when it doesn’t this year, I’ll probably be very confused. My diploma came in the mail last week, it’s pretty and says I have a Masters in Science… but not what the degree is in which kind of bothers me, but I’ll survive. Planning a graduation party for next Saturday, so that should be fun.

Since April 19th, I’ve subbed a LOT more. I still love it. I don’t sub at Perry as much because the hour long drive is lame and I get paid less, but Fairport has been calling me to sub pretty regularly which is awesome. I even got to proctor AP exams. Woohoo! Seeing as a permanent teaching job doesn’t seem to be on the horizon for me anytime soon, I love that I love subbing because I could probably do this for a least a couple more years without going entirely crazy.

Since April 19th, I’ve joined the Rochester Athletic Club for Women (the RAC) to try and get myself in some sort of shape other than round. I’ve been going 4-5 times a week for about 6 weeks now and I’m not seeing the results… although apparently other people can see them or something… I have my re-eval on Thursday, so hopefully when she weighs me and does all the measurements and whatnot, that will prove to me that there is something positive going on… and if it doesn’t, I will be really frustrated. I’ve been giving up time spent with my fiance and friends and family to go to the gym and better myself, so it had better be doing something.

I have more to write about but my brain just shut down… I’ll post again soon, hopefully.

So much to do, so little will to do it.

Hi blog-reading-type people…

So, yeah, I hate how I was all about working out for *drumroll please* one day. I worked out today as well, but only did 15 minutes, and didn’t work out at all Friday, Saturday or Sunday… Bad Suzi, Bad! I’m going to try to do 15 minutes a day and then build up to the WW suggested 30 minutes a day because that is just crazy talk. Although I did enjoy my hour and 15 minute walk at the Rec Center on Thursday… so I may need to recreate that at some point.

In other news, I suck at WW yet again… I ate just my points for 2 days… and then the weekend was like “Wassup?!” and I was like “Hot dogs and beer and chicken fingers and Indian food? Why thank you! Points? What are those?” Gah. Trying to get back on the wagon today because I’m going to my weigh-in on Thursday whether I’ve lost or not, because I haven’t gone in 3 weeks and what’s the point of paying for a monthly pass if you only go once a month? Huh? Huh? Nothing. *sigh*

Other things I’m failing at right now: Giving a shit about either of my classes. Yes, one of my classes is my capstone (or thesis) and I’ve been all like “Wah, I don’t have any data” and now I have piles upon piles of data and I’m doing… NOTHING with it. *sigh* I’m considering going to Java’s tonight and comandeering a table and some coffee and getting some work done… or FVC instead because it’s closer and more conducive to working. Ooo, I could go to my meeting at 4, then go to the Rec Center and walk and then go to FVC and do work! Oooo, how exciting. Orrrr go to my meeting at 4, then go to FVC and do work, and then go to the Rec Center and walk! Ooo, also exciting! Although, best laid plans and all that…

Things I need to do (this week):

-Read 2 articles, write a reflection about them and send it to my professor (for tomorrow).

-Work on a Professional Development on the topic of “Boys and Books” for tomorrow.

-Read 57 questionnaires and blogs and stuff and come up with 3 themes/findings.

-Type up 3 themes/findings and send them to my critical partner(s).

-After getting feedback from my critical partner(s), revise themes and send them to my professor.

-Work on the Methods section of my capstone.

-Create a concept map based on my three themes, revise them again.

-Clean my room and do laundry (laundry is about 3 weeks overdue– luckily I have more clothes than anyone in the universe)

-Actually deposit some money in our “money for our wedding/honeymoon” account.

-Print pictures of Final Exam arrangements for Penn Foster Floral Design thing.

-Send final exam for Penn Foster Floral Design thing to Penn Foster.

-Work out for at least 15 minutes on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

-Figure out a way to get Joel an anniversary present without actually spending any money.
