Just wanted to say Hi :)

It's been soooooo long since my last post! Sorry, I've been so busy lately because school started again.
Oh the glorious school season! Pulling out that old, trusty backpack, going school clothes shopping with the parents, buying school supplies from walmart. Ahhhhh, it feels like a fresh start!

But then after that first day of class... -______________-
Yeah, it's only been the first week of school and I'm already counting down to the next break.
I'm trying to keep my sanity/stress levels down by doing book reviews and keeping up with this blog. And I was going to take a yoga class, but unfortunatly, I had to drop it in order to keep up with my organic chem class :(
(But at least my Spanish class is fun!)

So there's an update of my life so far.
Not very exciting, but I'm working on it ;)

As always,
<3 Bee

P.S. I wish I were on a beach right now!

Elle's Goals for 2011-2012

So I thought that I should solidifying my goals somewhere besides leaving them up in my head where they wisp away as easily as dandelion seeds in the breeze...wow, I got kinda poetic there.  hahaha!  Anyways, I'll prob be updating this as the year passes, but here's a start.

1) Lose at least 20 lbs by the end of this academic year (aka by May 2012)

• Meaning that every month, I should lose about 3 lbs.  Not bad, right?
• I'll keep a tab of my progress every 2 weeks

2) Exercise at least 4 times a week.  No excuses, especially that now I live right above the dorms' gym and only have to go down one flight of stairs. 

3) Do a dance cover every 2 weeks.  I'm gonna really try hard for this one but I won't let you guys down!!

4) Limit the time I spend on the internet that isn't homework related.  It is the black hole in my life and freakin' Facebook and Youtube, once I enter, I don't emerge till like a few hours later.

5) Study class material and start homework the day I get it.  I'm sick of staying up till 3am finishing up a paper that is due that day same day. 

That's all I can think of right now.  But 5 is a good number and start.  I'll be writing up these goals and hanging it as a big banner in my room.  I'll even take the picture to show you guys :P

Hi Hi!!!!

Continuing with our random nicknames of men we don't know (and probably won't ever..*depressed sigh*) Ben & Jerry is now added onto the list.  And as the nickname implies, it's for two guys.
Funny story.  While trying to come up with a nickname for these two guys, who happen to be twins by the way, we were randomly spewing out names when turning the corner and *pop* one of the twins is there.  I am mid-sentence and just thought that if I continued talking while not saying anything specific, it would be okay.  Or so I thought.  I just ended up mumbling to myself, staring down at the ground while finding that the action of clicking my pen immensely fascinating.
...
Yep.  My plan of not being obvious totally backfired.  And it didn't exactly help that he was probably not even 20 feet away when we bursted out laughing.
Well after that little incident, I thought we were good.  But no.  We just happened to be in a patient's room when Ben I think (still have yet to learn to differentiate the difference between the two) walked into the room to get stats.  I would like to think that he was just smiling because he was putting on a good working demeanor and not because of us two girls giggling hysterically earlier. 
And that's another tale from volunteering ;)
