I bought the shoes... :D And they are so cute! I wore them that same night to the ballet and the ballet was good. It was the Dracula ballet and I went with this guy I've started dating, who so far seems pretty amazing. Anyways, back to the shoes....they are black with really cute toe detail. I'll post a picture of them soon. :)

Tomorrow I will do my measurements from the past 4 weeks I've been working out. I have gotten up the last 4 weeks, 5 days a week at 5 am to work out. My cardio hasn't been very "fat burning" since I've only been taking my dog for a walk on the cardio days. These next 4 weeks I am going to start doing my cardio at the gym for more of a "fat burning" workout. 54 more days till I am in Oz!!

Shoes

Who doesn't love shoes?? I love shoes. In fact, when I'm really depressed I can go try on shoes and that will cheer me up. Today was not the case. I decided I needed new shoes because when I added panty hose (thigh highs to be exact) to my outfit all the shoes I have did not fit! So, I got all excited and buying shoes and didn't even look at my bank account to see if I could afford them. I started thinking I couldn't afford them so I was just going to do without. I came home and I looked at my accounts and sure enough I can afford the shoes! The question is, do I now go buy them, or do I just wait since I found a pair of heels that I forgot I had that has a strap across the ankle so they would stay on my feet. Decisions, decisions.....

I have not been posting here, obviously. I have been really busy and basically been slacking off in all areas of my 16 week challenge, except the gym that is. I think I have actually gained weight since then...only a pound or two though. I also thought who really wants to read about someone whinging about losing weight all the time...lol. I'll try to get better now that life has slowed down.

School has been keeping me super busy!! But I turned in my research paper yesterday and I am going to try to make a real effort to keep up this second part of the semester. So far, I'm at least 2 chapters and several pages of writing behind..lol. Tonight in class we had a group discussion in lieu of a test and there is one student in particular that I CANNOT stand!!! This student feels the need to dominate every conversation and talks in a loud, monotone, nasal voice! Plus this student talks over everyone else and just drives me crazy in general. The bad thing is that we are in the same major and so I'm certain I will continue to have classes with this student until one of us graduates. This is a good motivator to take extra classes!!

I just realized that after I get up at 5 am to go to the gym, yes folks, that is the real time I get up to go to the gym, I can come back home and go back to bed. I don't have to be at work till noon! Yay!! That put a big smile on my face!!
