Such Great Heights

Just a gratuitous picture.
At home on a wednesday and a bit bored. Going to gym in a couple hours, just had breakfast.
After that probably take a nice swim. And later a good movie.
Where has the time gone.
Birthday in a month.
I always feel weird on my birthday. Dunno why.
Its blase but not.

Summertime. Its nice.

So Far.....

I've been going to the gym for approximately one month now. Its been tough, but I think I've grown to like the gym. I mean, I still like going and doing stuff outside but the gym offers you more things. Anyway, I started this out at first because I wanted to shed a few pounds but now I'm going for it big time. I've been taking a picture every monday for one month. In three months I hope to lose 30 lbs. In six months I hope to be ready for competition, just kidding. But honestly I want to do this not just to look better but feel better too. The nutrition plan had been the hardest. I wouldn't call it so much a diet, so much as a nutrition regime. Its more of eating whatever you want but sensible and smaller portions. But I do have to cut out the junk food completely. Which is fine, except for pop tarts. I will dearly miss those. Adieu to you pop-tart.

Starting Date: June 18th
Finish Date: ?????

Start Weight: 191 lbs
Current Weight: 183.5 lbs

Total Loss: 7.5

Not much but its something.

I have pictures, but i'm still debating putting them up. No I don't look like a blimp or anything but its always weird putting pics of you half dressed online. (cut to me putting the pic up)

Update: Ok here it is.



P.S
( I think the beer gut is going down a bit)
(BTW don't drink beer, I wish that were my excuse)
(Its mostly junk food)
(Why am I explaining myself?)
(I think i'll stop)

Shiny Happy Fits of Rage

Summer is in full bloom and its a hot one I must say. No, backtrack, its so hot even my eyes are sweating. I suppose that would be considered crying. But who can tell with all the sweat on your face. But thats another story.
Nevertheless its safe to say that it will get progressively hotter. And I for once will be doing something about it. This august I planned a trip to nor-cal as we californians refer to it as. More specifically San Francisco, I've never been in all my life, so I thought this summer would be a perfect opportunity to escape for a bit. So far, Josie has agreed to come so that assures that this trip should be fun, but educational. Seeing as he is a walking politico/history book he should be able to educate me on all things San Francisco.
I still don't know how we shall get there, but i'm not sweating the details just yet. All I know is that i'm going, one way or another.
As for my summer so far, its been fun. Went on a date. Went to the movies a lot. Drank a lot of water. And swam profusely. Plus work out 5 days a week. Good stuff.
Still we're only half way there and I still have a lot to get done.
As for right now, this minute i'm about to jump in the piscine (pool in french) and swim a couple of laps.

First Nude Public Outing

Well, Yesterday was a pretty normal day for me I suppose. The heat was up there in the triple digits. You know its too hot when you can't touch your steering wheel.
I went to work early. The day went smoothly enough. I don't think I could have a drama free day at work. Everyday it seems as though I've been cursed with the worst job on earth. And yet, I stay. Some people would call that stupid. But I've put so much time and hard work into that place that I couldn't just leave without getting all I could from it.
After work, I was pretty exhausted but since I signed up for my gym membership I promised my self I would attend at least 6 days a week. I picked up my feet and dragged myself to go workout. It was the first time I used the gym showers. Weird. No curtains. Imagine my grief. But I grit my teeth and went for it. Public nudity isn't my forte but when it is necessary, I'll do it. Some of the guys there were so comfortable and walked around nekkid. Me, not so much. All in all it wasn't that bad of an experience.
Today I plan nothing. As usual. Go with the flow. Tomorrow I start summer school. Free studio time to work on my portfolio and possibly even make some money in the process. Not too shabby.

Work, work work. Thats all life really is. Not the worst thing in the world. Could be the best.

PS. On a positive note. A couple weeks ago I received the photo editor position at my school. Thrilling.
