Journal Entry for May 24, 2007 Mood
Thursday, May 24, 2007

well i'm back up at school, back to the daily gring... sort of.  things are so slow in this town and noone is here.  i have nothing to do all day so i have been desperately trying to remain busy and occupied on things and work out and eat well.  the temptation is there to drink and party more which only leads me down a negative path.  i'm almost happy i have an 8 oclock class so i cant do that. 

 lately i have been really craving a guy to have in my life.  those nights that i am sitting home alone watchin tv and not doing much would be perfect for that companionship.  that's when i binge too, so the loneliness makes it nearly impossible to resist.  i know i should relish this time and also use it to get into some good habbits before i start my new life in a new town and get busy.  i just need to stay positive and not let my thoughts and anxiety turn situations into what they arent.

    thats so true! i think the happier you are in yourself, the better your relationship will be... its like you're more of a complete person to offer your partner - otherwise you lean on them too much & that can be unhealthy.

things are going so well in my life and even tho i've not been working out or controling the eating thing like i normally do, everything else is right with the world so i dont really care. last night i had a couple of my close freinds over, my little bro and his freind were here from out of town, and this guy i adore came over. we had so so much fun just playing drinking games and hanging out at my apt. my roomy and i have gotten extremely close and i love her to death which has been such a blessing. plus, now i have a job with ibm and have officially never been rejected for a position. that is amazing because the competition was stiff. im starting to get really sad about leaving school, tho. im really really gonna miss it here and i have such incredible freinds. everything comes to an end at some point, but this one's gonna be tough to let go of. anyway, thanks everyone for the amazing support and sorry i only get on here once and a while to check messages and all. i am still appreciative beyond words

Well it's Monday, which has sadly become my favorite day lately because I hate being lazy and having nothing to do. The last couple of weeks since exams have been done, I have been trying to find ways to stay occupied and avoid binging. I am proud of myself because I have done a decent job with it. But today, I am off to Atlanta for final round job interviews with IBM for a sales position. I'm so eager to get my life started and move on to the next phase.

As far as food and exercise goes, I plan to get back into the gym Wednesday when I am done traveling and get back up to school. I have been sick all week and home at my parents' house, so I am all thrown off. When I get back to school I'm gonna look for a good part time job for the summer and start my one summer class. With the spare time I have, I definitly want to have fun and party with my buds, but more importantly, I want to commit to getting my body into prime shape. I always feel the best when I exercise and eat well. I will get down to 120 this summer. I am determined because at 5'3", there is no reason that this is unreasonable. When I get below 125, I alway worry that I am being obsessive and let my self gain again. My goal is to do the weight loss in a healthy way and aim to maintain this weight. It is so strange to me that 5 pound makes me feel so overwhelmingly different. Is it that way for other people too? Maybe it is due to the fact that my clothes fit tight vs. loose and that contributes to the difference. Who knows.

Well I'm gonna get showered and packed and ready to knock em dead in Atlanta. Wish me luck on the interviews and my diet and exercise ventures!!
