Words Unspoken|Today is where your book begins, the rest is still unwritten.

I’m honestly quite tired of lazy days, but I don’t get much else these days. I’ll be filling out my immigration paperwork within the next couple weeks and mailing that out, which is terrifying! I’ll be going in for volunteer training on Monday which is less scary. Other than that, I have absolutely nothing to do with my time!

Today I changed a few of my 101 things list. I was able to move rearrange the bedroom from the “to do” list to the “done” list, which is cool. I need to do a few of those other things on my own though. Maybe sometime in the next few weeks I’ll get them done! Another thing I changed is that I added something. I’ve wanted to do this for quite a while, so regardless of how silly it is, I added that I want to own either this ring or this ring. I’ve come so close to buying the mesh heart ring so many times that I couldn’t begin to count them, but always backed down. But I decided that I deserve something nice, and once I’m able to own that ring, then I will deserve it. Notice I didn’t say that I have to BUY it. Matt could buy it for me, or a family member, but I’ll most likely be buying it myself, which will probably make me feel proud!

Other than that… I’m attempting to eat healthier these days because I’m frustrated again with my weight. However, when am I not? I need to get back into the gym. I’ve been wanting to go with Katie, but she has been sick since we went last week, poor thing, so I think I just need to get myself in there and do it myself. I can’t rely on anyone but myself! I just feel so worthless these days. The depression is hitting me pretty hard lately and not much makes it better. I think it’s cabin fever. I spent Canada Day doing laundry, and I never go out, and I don’t have a tan. But that’s news for another time.

I can’t completely shake my funk lately. I’ve been a bit moody and lazy lately, with not much to blog about. I live a pretty boring life!

Matt and I went out to Arby’s today. We had no idea there was one here until the other day, so we decided to go today. It was good, but I’m feeling super guilty about all the calories I probably put into my body. We walked around Walmart and the new Best Buy for a while, and I haven’t eaten much else, so I’m trying to get the guilt out of my mind. It’s not the worst thing I could do!

I’m working on my 101 things list right now. Can you believe I’m more than half done? Craziness, if you ask me. There’s a lot to do still, and not everything on there is something I can expect to achieve, but I’m still trying! Right now I’m watching Pulp Fiction in an attempt to get back on track for my Films to See list.

I’m also (still!) working on organizing my music folder. So many things in so many different formats in random folders… It’s utter chaos in there! It might take me a while to do it but it’ll be refreshing after I’m done, that’s for sure.

That’s about it for now. I’m going to force myself to go to the gym tomorrow and possibly Saturday, too. Definitely need to kick my butt in gear again - I’m slacking and it’s so obvious and so bad.

Time is just flying by this year. Seriously. I want to freeze frame a week and hold on to it for about a month. I’m really dreading winter this year. I love autumn, but winter makes me sad and anxious and it’s already setting in! Not to mention with winter comes Christmas, and with Christmas comes all of my family members coming BACK out of the woodwork and asking me when I’m coming back, when I’m visiting, if I’m moving back… and telling me that I should be with family for the holidays, blah blah blah.

Anyway, enough thinking about that. I have two months! Right now, I need a pumpkin spice candle and an apple candle. Favourite smells, ever. They’re fantastic and comforting and warm… sigh. I miss Target. I wish they’d make one here. I could get the candles from there - they were the best!

So, with a new month, as usual, I’ve put up a new theme. This crosses yet another thing off of my 101 things list. Third customized Wordpress theme, yay! Eventually I’ll clean up my themes and put in a theme switcher. The only problem with that is that I need to figure out how to make the example bullets on my 101 things page change with the theme. Any ideas?

I need to make a small announcement: I hit my goal weight for the month! This means I get a haircut, eventually, when I feel like going out. I can’t seem to find a picture of what I want, but I want bangs like I have now, but I want them to actually go where they’re supposed to go! And I think I want some long layers to make my hair look healthier. Right now it’s just kinda blah, and I throw it up in a ponytail because I get bored. I need new shampoo, too. None of the stuff I have is working right anymore. My hair does that - it becomes “immune” (for lack of a better word) to a certain kind of shampoo and doesn’t get as clean anymore. It’s frustrating! Same with deodorant, but that’s even more annoying. So, if anyone can find a hairstyle like what I mentioned, send me a picture of it!

Today I get to redo my World of Warcraft interface and then do some farming. I didn’t sign up for tonight’s raid, because I’m feeling a bit burnt out. Sad, but true. Some of the things I’ve been doing are fun, and some just plain drive me bonkers. I can’t help it! I think it’s a bunch of new people we keep pulling into our raids - we’re learning to work together again and figure things out, all the while we’re doing stuff that we had on farm status, but now we’re struggling because the same cooperation isn’t there. It’s a delicate balance, really. Anyway, about my interface. I installed something before my raid last night, and boy did that fail. Miserably. It was awful. I couldn’t move my buttons around, I had to reload my UI any time I had to put a new spell on my bars, and I had targeting problems. Not the easiest way to raid! However, some good news about my raid last night (Karazhan) is that I finally got my bracers from the Maiden - Bands of Nefarious Deeds. There is just a few things I’m sticking it out for in there still:

- Tirisfal Wand of Ascendancy from Shade (Though I may end up just getting the Arena Wand before I ever see the Shade wand.)
- Helm of the Fallen Defender for my Soul-Collar of the Incarnate off of the Prince. I hate this fight. More than you’d believe. But I need a new head piece. Who knows, maybe I’ll get the next Cowl of the Grand Engineer off of Void Reaver!
- Gloves of the Fallen Defender off of Curator for my Gloves of the Incarnate. Not so much because it’s an upgrade, but because I want to finish the set!
- Trial-Fire Trousers from the Opera Event.
- Ring of Recurrence from the Chess Event.

I definitely wouldn’t mind getting the enchanting formulas, either: Mongoose, Soulfrost, Sunfire,

It’s a new month now, so I figure what better time to wipe the slate clean?

My goals for the month are going to be simple, so that I don’t lose focus.

Weight Loss
- Record everything I eat on SparkPeople. No matter what.
- Drink plenty of water - I need to be very good about drinking at least 8 glasses per day.
- No soda, at all. This won’t be -too- hard, but I need to put it in writing so it’s a solid rule for myself.
- A little bit of exercise every day. Even if it means walking around the living room in laps, which is actually more fun than it seems!
- Limit fast food to healthy choices - light subs from Subway, chicken tacos from Taco Bell, etc. No sense depriving myself, but also no sense in putting wasted calories into my body!

Social & Hobbies
- Have a movie marathon night. This is one of the items on my 101 things list, and I’d really like to do it! It seems like a nice, fairly inexpensive way to spend a night with a good friend.
- Get Thaelani to at least 50, if not 60. I need to level her, badly.
- Do at least one DITL.

Personal
- Get fingerprinted and send away for records. At least get one step out of the way for Immigration, since we’ve been procrastinating like mad. It’s probably because I’m too nervous to start thinking about the whole process, and so it sends me into panic attacks!
- Take at least five pictures per day. Maybe upload some, maybe just keep them in my photos folder.
- Stop biting my nails. For real, this time.

Also, new theme! Opinions?

I emptied out my downloads folder for the Sims 2, and now I’m re-downloading a bunch of stuff. I’ve decided to give this Legacy family yet another try, if only to check off the item on my 101 things list. May as well, right?

So, I’m on the lookout for quality custom content. Know of any sites? List them here!
