Body Woes and Sweet Treats

Reasons I have not written lately:
1. School. I don’t know so many of you juggle regular posting on top of school work. Maybe my time management skills need some refinement.
2. My Halloween was lame and I didn’t want to talk about it. Therefore I’ve kind of avoided the window where that was the hot [...]

The Week After Turkey

This week has been a fly by! TGIF tomorrow already, I can hardly believe it. I guess that packed turkey extended weekend really helped to shorten this week up, not that I’m complaining about it. My weekend begins as of the end of my only Friday class at 12:30 tomorrow. Woop.

I’ve also eaten at least half my weight [...]

The weekend is almost over already? Where does the time go? It’s been a lovely one though, the weather is finally beautiful! We’ve had warm warm warm for several days now and although today is pretty darn chilly, the sun has been shining all day. I love chilly sunny days, they’re so refreshing.

Eat All Day, Study All Night…

…Let’s get it poppin… I’m in Miami Trick?
I wish I were in Miami right about now. Please try not to judge (too hard) the fact that this is my new favourite song.
Weekend highlights included: work, study, eat, sleep, study, eat, treadmill, study.
I promise I won’t be such a complainer in just over a week’s time.
Saturday
Breakfast [...]
