I need to head to bed, so we’ll do this quick and in a time-blocked manner. My plan changed a bit from what I posted yesterday!
7:30am – Wake up, blow dry and straighten hair, get ready for my last first day of classes!
8:30am – Breakfast with some of my sisters: Cheerios, banana, rice milk, and coffee to go with skim and Splenda.
9:30am – Nutrition Through the Life Cycle. Moves fast, but prints slides and posts them online. Love this class already.
11am – Stand in line for 45 minutes to get refund check from Bursar’s office. Worth it.
11:45am – Read the first chapter of my nutrition book for review. Get overly excited about RDIs and vitamin intake. Diagnose self with 92348429 deficiencies. Realize I am a hypochondriac. Eat my packed lunch from yesterday – spinach, hummus, raisin wrap and an orange. You already saw it.
12:30pm – Medieval English Literature. I just “learned” this all in Brit Lit. Beowulf again, oh joy.
1:00pm – Get out of class super early. Head to bank to deposit mad moneys. Curse the weather yet again – instead of predicted snow, it is raining. And very cold. I decked out in snow gear, not rain. The two are very different.
1:20pm – Head to cafe to read more nutrition, play with my friend that works there, and drink an Awake tea with skim and Splenda.

1:25pm – Wonder when my nutrition book will tell me to stop inhaling Splenda.
3:30pm – Emotion in Literature and Film. Spend 1.25 hours going over a syllabus I can understand, as a senior in college, by myself. Die inside a little. Munch a Spooky S’mores bar whose picture my Blackberry ate.
4:45-5:20pm – Wait for bus. In lieu of waiting for Blue line, get on Green line to get to Red line stop.
5:45pm – Finally get on a bus home. Surprised I haven’t started crying. Maybe I have, and mistook it for rain.
6:00pm – Eat some dried apricots.
6:30pm – Head to off campus gym with sister for free week from her membership.
6:45pm – Join off campus gym. They have TVs, air conditioning, classes, and a spa-like bathroom. I want to be friends with the front desk girl.
6:50pm – Ellipticize for 30 minutes on level 10 of rolling hills. Realize I am now technically paying for 3 gym memberships. Acknowledge my hardcore-ness.
7:25pm – 3.1 miles in 28:44, half on iPod, half on The Office. Wonder if weight lifters next to me are judging me for laughing out loud. I love you, Jim.
8:00pm – Stop at CVS to buy bright purple lock for new gym. Feel even more hardcore.
8:45pm – Finally eat dinner. Focus not on taste, but talking with friends. Feel like a real person again.

love.burrito Veggie Fajita (review soon) + carrots with roasted red pepper hum
9:30pm – Be amazed that there is hot water this late in our house/condo/dorm.
10:00pm – Eat organic piƱata apple.
10:29pm – Hit publish. Apologize in advance for super lame, Blackberry picture filled post.

Wow that a lot of stuff you had to do!! I love busy days- They keep me on my toes
… And haha waiting for your nutrition book to tell you to stop inhaling Splenda?! Hahhah- girl real sugar is the way to go! Last year, I had about 4 packets a day and I felt like it just made me crave more and more sugary-ness. I think it’s better to go for the natural stuff- it’s a lot better for you too
