Thanksgiving break
Starting it off finishing homework and writing a paper. The joys of pharmacy school…it will never end, will it?
On a brighter note, the boyfriend’s parents fed me dinner. Gosh, it’s as if they read my mind and knew exactly what I was craving. I got my meat fix for the week, at least until my brother comes back into town this Saturday. Until then, I will be having a vegetarian thanksgiving like always.
On a super duper brighter note, I checked my weight today and I am SO AIEFAIENRLAKEWNR ECSTATIC. I REACHED MY TIER 2 GOAL!!! That means since the beginning of summer, I have officially lost 20 pounds! I still have work to do to get to my ultimate goal, but I’m so happy to see results (even though I haven’t been working out and I honestly haven’t been eating right either). Hearing people who I haven’t seen in a while say how great I look after losing so much weight makes me feel so much better about myself.
Sometimes I wish I had pretty Asian hair so I could dye it and play around with it, but no, I’m stuck with dry, frizzy, damaged hair even though I wash my hair every other day and only straighten/curl my hair whenever I go out (which is like once a week).
Pointless post
I spent 2 days cleaning my entire room and living room looking for a tank top and a bandeau and they end up being in my friend’s car from our roadtrip a month ago.

Been trying to go to the gym when I can. I’m so close to reaching my 2nd tier goal (yes, I have tiers of my goals, which I have already reached my 1st tier of losing 15 pounds). Just 3 more pounds by winter break, and I’ll be ecstatic! I just need to start working out more often, stop drinking sugary drinks, stop eating out as often as I have, and to stop snacking so much.
Bought my first sports bra! Yeah, I’m like a million years late, but it’s motivation to start working out again, although hell will once again start next week which then I’ll probably go on another 2 month hiatus.
Been feeling really nostalgic of Austin days lately. I realized that nowadays, I’m so antisocial and introverted, which is complete opposite of how I was before. Maybe it’s because of the environment I’m in or the people I’m around or simply that I have just “grown up”. I can’t help but feel so jealous whenever I see pictures of people going out all the time, meeting new people every weekend, reconnecting with old friends, going to concerts and events, having an awesome social life. Now, all I look forward to are mornings when I can sleep in, the next test being more than 5 days away, and falling asleep with the boyfriend at the same time since I always pass out hours before he does.
Sometimes, I wish I didn’t choose to grow up so quickly.
At least I’ll back in Dallas next year…as long as I don’t fail. C=PharmD, C=PharmD…
Back to studying I go.
I can’t remember what it’s like to not have something to worry about and to not have something to study for. We’ve literally had a test every single week of school. At least we’re done with 3 8-week courses this week…except we’re adding 4 more 8-week courses next week. Never ending.
Thank god for 3 day weekend this weekend. Thinking about and really hoping for a trip to Albuquerque on Friday. I want to see all the Breaking Bad locations and go to a casino for the first time. Might as well take advantage of being up in the panhandle!
The awesome feeling when
You go shopping, get all of your normal sizes, and realize they’re too big for you.
Surprisingly, even through my study munchies and not going to the gym at all, I have managed to lose more weight. My tummy is almost flat (with a huge layer of fat still but it no longer looks like I’m a couple of months preggo), and a lot of clothes I bought last year when I was fatter are now too big for me!
Grades are much better than expected, and I have the bestest boyfriend ever. Thanks to everyone who made my birthday so special. Did not have the typical 21st birthday (can’t hold down alcohol anymore wtf) but I spent it with the best group of people.
Seeing your face makes me want to punch a wall and/or throw up. Actually both. You absolutely disgust me (and everyone else too except the person you treat the worst to so that person is an idiot but that’s not the point here). I know it’s been months since I first felt this way about you but every time I see your face in pictures, I cringe and think how in the world you can think you’re so good looking when you’re not and why you think so highly of yourself. I can’t name one single good quality about you. Not one. You’re simply an asshole, and if I ever get the chance to say this in person, I will.
WANT
A guinea pig. Or a chinchilla. Or a bunny. But realistically, a guinea pig.
Next time I go home, I’m asking my mom if I can get one, and she’ll probably say no, and I’ll probably still get one anyways because I know she’ll fall in love with it. I want one now though. :(
What I have done to avoid studying:
- Cleaned up the apartment, including my room, and vacuumed for the first time since moving in
- Cooked like 3 days worth of shrimp pesto pasta
- Watched 3? episodes of Breaking Bad and caught up (omg the last episode wtfffff)
- Painted my nails
- Watched over an hour’s worth of Youtube videos about skincare
- Restarted my Luuux account
- Taught myself how to photoshop the glare off of glasses (so proud of myself bc I couldn’t find a tutorial online since it’s so difficult to do but I took about an hour or so so blegh)
- Edited and uploaded the rest of my summer photos
- Organized my shoes (which surprisingly took like half an hour)
- Napped…a lot
“So completely fucked” is an understatement of these next 2 weeks. Can’t even celebrate my 21st because of tests. It’s too early to be having hell weeks. Damn you, pharmacy school!
Preparing myself for lots of study munchies, sleepless nights, and living at the school all over again.
Lost 2-3 pounds since the last time I weighed myself (about a month ago)! Good news since I haven’t really been working out and I’ve been eating somewhat unhealthy. I was actually expecting to gain that much.
Need to lose that much again to get to where I started before pharmacy school began. Goal is to lose a total of 7-8 pounds by the end of the semester.
2nd day of classes
Yesterday, we had homework and already learned how to do cholesterol/glucose testing with lancets (whoever said finger pricking doesn’t hurt was lying). Today, we have a quiz.
21 hours of classes…it’s going to be a longgggggg semester.
