a week in review

a few things that have occurred as of recently:

-i ate a personal pizza and 6 breadsticks from dominos this evening. and now i feel like death. ughhh

-certain... job things have happened to me in the past 48 hours. i am so beyond confused with what to do. i am just taking it one step at a time. but the first step is coming really soon...

-one of my only weekends off, and i am making it busy anyway. at least i didn't leave my apartment today...

-did i mention the nausea from the breadsticks?????? ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

-summer is almost over. and this makes me so incredibly sad. only three more weekends left after this one, and i go back to 5 day work weeks. doesn't that break your heart?

-i love ugly dolls (can't you tell?)

-i was down 15 pounds as of yesterday. i think that changed with the breadsticks. ughhhhhh

in conclusion, i never eating again.

okay, so that is a lie. i am not eating tomorrow.


okay, so that isn't happening either. i will eat better this weekend? yeh, i don't forsee that happening either. ughhhhhhh. goodbye 15 pound weight loss...

time after time

one of my closest friends from high school is moving to north carolina this week, leaving only one of my friends at home (well technically 2, but one commutes three hours to work a day, so she basically lives there). so this is it. this is the part when you realize everyone really is growing up. it is absolutely amazing to see how we all have scattered across the country. we have representation in canada, buffalo, rochester, philadelphia, new york, charolette, and los angeles. really really growing up. the minute someone gets married or pops a child, i may have a nervous breakdown. because then we are truly grown. sigh...
what i am thankful for, as horrible as it seemed at the time, is that we had one last summer together last year. i was incredibly stressed with finishing school, having no job, and numerous other things that i don't even want to think about anymore. but we had each other, all of us in the same place one last time. wow wow wow. it will never be the same.

but i still love you, new york

when it comes to new york city, there are three kinds of people:
1. people who hate new york and would rather die than even visit
2. people who like to visit new york, but are happy to go home after a visit and could never see themselves staying there
3. people who can't get enough of the city.

i fall into category 3. i am approaching my 6 month mark of me living in the city, and i am absolutely positively not sick of it. i was in la this past weekend, and while it was one of the best vacations i have ever had, i was so incredibly excited to come back to new york. i really really don't think i could live in la. i think all that traffic and driving would drive me to insanity. i can get to the bottom of manhattan all the way to the top in 45 minutes. 45 minutes can take you down the street in a car in la. so while the weather was lovely and the beaches were delightful and i couldn't get enough of the celebrity shenanigans, i definitely fall into category 3 of new yorkers.

in other news, my family is coming to visit this weekend. my cousins are basically my siblings, so i am so incredibly excited from them to get here. each are bringing their spouse/boyfriend, both of whom i love dearly, so i am prepared to have a delightful weekend.

lateedah.
