Diary of a Blog tragic...

I have a confession...

Diary of a bad eater...

(as of 4.44pm)
Guess what I've eaten today?
That would be 2 packets of snack sized chips and 2 and 1/3rd LCMs Split Sticks...
... 1 Yogurt and 1 and 1/3rd Chocolate...
....and a fun sized Timeout bar... actually, I'm eating that now...

...yes, I know- It's terrible, but the thing is- I haven't been shopping this week.
Or last week....
 So I have had to eat what's in my room (not much, after 2 weeks placement, prior to last week), what I get from the canteen, and two dinners a week that the Res provides... I am currently hanging out for one tonight... only about an hour and a bit to go... I think I have some tortillas if I can't make it or I could cook up some pasta, like I did for breakfast the other day...
But, seriously.. If you know any quick, tasty (and nutrition wouldn't hurt me either) meals for one... please, please let me know....

Diary of a Gym Virgin...

Yesterday was my first ever visit to the gym... Yes, I got to 19 years old without ever having set foot in one. The instructor had to show me everything. I knew absoululy zero.. even the way I did push ups was wrong (although, granted, the last time I did push ups was when challenging my cousins to see who could do the most- p.s. most of my cousins are at least 5 years younger than me)
This morning before I went I decided I had better shave my knees... 'cos, you know they stuck out below my shorts... yeah, somewhat embarrassing, but oh well... am I the only person that does a thing like that? sit on the edge of the bed to give 'em a touch up? ...oookay then, moving on...
I then had to walk across the Uni Res and part of the campus to get to the Uni gym, feeling like a dork in what used to be a school sports uniform (my younger sisters school sports uniform)...
And when I got there the rather attractive gym trainer guy has to run me through a program to see what goals I'm trying to achieve... um, I wanna loose my slightly podgy tummy... I just told him I wanted to improve my strength and fitness... So he shows me everything there is, and I can barely keep up with the automatic running machine... now I'm not really that unfit... I walk fast everywhere (probably 'cos I just don't want to waste time just getting places.. is that a form of laziness?).. but my calves were starting to sting... I was counting down the minutes till he came to tell me I could finish and go on the bikes... where I wasn't really fast enough... the whole gym is way too high tech.... and after that he had to walk me through how to do a push-up, a sit-up, a lunge and a triceps press... *sigh, I didn't even get a go on the rowing machine... after one round of the strengthening exercises (10 each) I headed for home.... and ate chocolate slice...

My legs don't actually hurt to day... it's my shoulders I can't move...

Diary of a lazy emailer

Want to guess how many unread emails there are in my mailbox it the moment? The answer is 552. Mostly junk... the problem is I just keep letting them pile up, and then they get too many for me to go though. Although that figure is less than it was a while ago, when I had another attempt at a clean out. That's the thing with technology... it starts out as a convenience, or an entertainer... and before long it has become a chore....
and then of course you can always move on and find something new....
The first thing I got into was Yahoo!Answers.. though some friends at school... then that died out...then I got into Polyvore (different set of friends) ...that still hangs on as a current obsession... then there was a blog.. Facebook... Youtube.. and the never ending array of amusing sites to enjoy, the Taste of Awesome, Cakewrecks, notalwaysright, etc..... one fades out as another one lures...

Off to see the Wizard

 I'm the sort who goes through phases of obsesions. And my current obsesion is The Wizard of Oz...
