New Haircut, and such.

Saturday, April 12th, 2008

I got my hair cut a week ago, and now it’s super short. I’m going to see how feasible it is to keep it straight most of the time, because I personally feel that it looks much better that way.  Once I can figure out how to add pictures, I’ll include one on here.  (But since I’m retarded that might be a while).  Also, once that picture is up, my workout progress will be up as well on the workout page on the left.  I’ll try to take weekly or bi-weekly photos to monitor the progress on my upper arms.  If anyone can give me advice on how to make sure I get that wonderful definition, that would be totally rad.

Idle Hands

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

I miss being busy. Meaningfully busy. I signed up for a course, and they’ve already given me a password to their online study component, although the course itself doesn’t start for a few more months. I’ve already started studying, making notecards, doing practice questions. I’m more serious about this than I’ve ever been about academics in my life. Aside from gross anatomy. That shit was awesome. Seriously. The only problem is that after staring at a computer screen for eight hours the last thing I want to do is, well, stare at a computer screen.

PS - I forgot pretty much everything I ever knew about geometry, algebra, and percentages. This can be verified by the number of correct answers I received. I clearly need to do more studying of rules and whatnot. I am, however, kicking ass on the English section.

On the bright side, I am currently in the process of getting myself onto a schedule. I start work at 7am and work until 9am.  I then go to the gym for an hour or two, come back and work for another six hours.  Take a break, followed by some studying.  I’m even eating better. We’ll see how long this whole thing lasts, but I am fairly excited about getting my life under control.  I’ve rearranged my workout and put myself on a three-day split with the help of a wonderful website.  This should considerably minimize the amount of time I spend in the gym, while still getting a good workout. The only downside to this is that I go to bet earlier.

What can I say?  I like my sleep.
