Veganism

Now I am not currently a vegan, but I have always considered trying. Why would I try such a thing when burgers and bacon are so delicious? My first reason started with me being allergic to milk. So I have a big portion of that out of the way already. Another reason is that I always feel sick when I eat things like burgers and bacon. The  third reason came to me last night while I was watching a documentary called Vegucated. The documentary was about 3 normal, meat-loving New Yorkers. The three of them were challenged to try being a vegan for six weeks. The new vegans were showed how animals were treated at the farms. I almost cried a bunch of times during this part, and I don’t cry in movies. That there was what really got me. The animals. So starting today I am a grain-loving, tempeh-loving, vegetable-loving vegan. Wish me luck!

Dreaded Finals

It’s that time of year again…Finals. It seems like everything sneaks up on you at the end of the semester. There are tests and papers all due around the same time. The only way to get it done right is to not procrastinate (I usually do procrastinate) and to focus. So that I do not procrastinate I have to make a list of what I need to do on my days off of work. To focus I have to do a few things. First I have to eat healthy so that I feel good and can stay focused. Next I have to get my work outs in at least 3 times a week so that I can do something productive to get my mind away from homework for an hour. The last and saddest thing that I had to do was ask my boyfriend to change the passwords for my facebook and pinterest account. They suck up too much of my time. It was probably the hardest of all of things to do, which is very sad to say. Good luck to everyone out there taking finals!

Hidden Challenges

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It seems like every time I try and do something that seems easy there is some hidden challenge to the task. For school, it seems like most of the challenges I have is putting the rest of my life aside and focusing on school work. I am a procrastinator. I leave everything that doesn’t have to be done right away until I have to do it. For my social life, the challenge that I have is finding time to do things with friends. I tend to have school and work come first. One way that I try and get around that is I try and get my friends to work out with me, that way it is multitasking. I can get work out in for the day and enjoy the company of a friend.
