Sheesh.

I can't believe it's February already!! Crazy. I can remember when I was younger, time seemed to stand still. Months took forever to reach the next, and it just always seemed like enough time had passed until the next activity started. I could never understand when I'd hear people say 'time flies', but I'd always agree with them out of courtesy. I now understand that phrase though. Now, with deadlines approaching nearer each moment, I'm fighting to win the battle against the clock. There are so many tasks that I want to complete. Frankly, too many tasks. haha. But I'm just going to keep on keeping on.

This semester so far has been pretty awesome. I'm taking courses in geology, french 2, behavior modification (I'll refer to it as b-mod), and painting 2. What's awesome is that I haven't been late to a single class, and I haven't skipped a class either. (GASP!- I know, I'm proud too!). Painting 2 is my favorite, but b-mod is probably the most interesting. Right now, we are learning how to change our current behavior into the goal behavior that we'd like to have. There's a lot of steps that go into that, but I'm still learning them all. haha.

My goal is to increase my creative productivity. Also, instead of wasting time, I'd like to create a schedule that I can abide by to increase activity. Instead of spending hours on the internet(I really don't know where the time goes, I just get sucked into that black hole of a search engine...), I'd like to devote my time towards things that will be productive (Ie: cleaning the house, doing chores, homework, working out, couple time, "me" time, and being creative). I think that if I have a schedule to follow, it will be easier to implement my goal habits into effect. There's a lot to be done, but I'm positive that as long as I'm putting an effort into the change, everything else will fall into place.

Geology is kinda lame, but it gets me up early to do something with the rest of my day. (Side note: Oh man. I'm watching the Price is Right. This dude totally just made a fool of himself, but I'm laughing so hard. So thank you dude. haha. I must say, I love the new dresses the showgirls have to wear.) French is fun. I just feel kinda retarded because I just can't remember everything. It makes it tough when you are 1 of 3 students who have never seen the information before and the other 12 students had 4 years of French in high school. It seems a little unfair. Bah. I signed up last week for a tutor, and the other 2 students that are having issues are in a study group with me, so hopefully all these efforts will not go to waste! I should probably do more on livemocha. Scratch that, I'm going to do more on livemocha. haha.

Anywhoo. I bought a gym membership last week. I had one before, but i just didn't use it. I made excuses as to why I couldn't go and all that, but I'm refusing to waste $400. ( Oh man. I could have gone to Target. haha. or Ulta. haha. or Cat Patan's. haha.) I think I made the right decision. I'm excited, I meet with a trainer on Wednesday. I'm a little nervous because the dude is crazy beefy and he's probably going to kick my ass, but it's all in the name of health!
