Hey, all!
So, I lost three more pounds this week so I'm down by nine. Very exciting!
I don't really have much to write about...I've been bogged down with homework the past few days and pretty stressed, making my stomach upset. I just finished my work, so now I have some free time, finally. I think I'll be heading to bed good and early tonight. I was considering watching a movie on NetFlix, but I think I'll come home from class and eat dinner, watch Jeopardy with Maezzy and then call Bill. When that is over, it will be 10 p.m. and I'll be able to go to bed!!
I am loving teaching classes. I would much rather only be teaching than having to take classes too...but obviously if I weren't taking classes I wouldn't be teaching either. Haha. Regardless, I'm a big fan of most of my kids and there isn't one I don't like, so that is good. This week we will be working with Illustrator. It's a fun program and I'm sure we will have a good time. Next week, as long as time allows, I am making them cookies, as we are allowed to eat in lab now! Makes life a lot easier.
Bill was here again this weekend. We had a nice time. We just hung out Friday night and then went to the science center Saturday afternoon and watched Adventureland that night. Sunday we watched three football games and did a football poll. Bill beat me by 10 points, so I didn't feel too bad. Maybe I'll beat him this weekend. We are just doing it by e-mail as he is not coming to visit. In fact, I won't see him again until October 23, which is a whole month!! Crazy.
But lots of things to distract me...IUP homecoming with the girlies is next weekend, Lisa organized a happy hour for Friday this weekend, though I can't drink because of my diet. But I'll still have fun! My parents are coming to visit the weekend after homecoming and I haven't seen them since my birthday weekend, so it will be really nice! Then, Bill will be back!
That's all for now. I better get started on more work so I'm ahead a little so I really can sleep a lot tonight. Only five hours each of the past two nights...that's just not enough!!
Adios.

A Much-Needed Update!
Apparently I'm just no good at blogging anymore. This is bad.
Anyway, it's now week four of the fall semester at Syracuse. Things are going well. So much has happened since I last wrote!!
1. ENGAGED!!!!! (Aug. 17) Could not be happier!
2. Earned a 4.0 in my summer semester!
3. Turned 23 ---> Getting old...
4. Planned some of the wedding, including picking a date, Sept. 25, 2010. The biggest decision right now is the honeymoon spot. I'm really starting to feel like I want to go to the beach. To St. Lucia and the Coconut Bay Resort. Found out last night it would cost us (though I can't price tickets for Sept. just yet) about $600 a person to fly down there. So our total cost would be about $2500, leaving $500 to go kyacking and buy some gifts or something. But Disney just sounds so much fun too. Such a tough decision!
Besides all of this, school is going well. I have A's in my classes so far, but I'm not sure if I'll keep A's or not. I'm only worried about one class as of now, and that is Organization PR. The work we are doing is hard, and it's all about PR theory. I never had a PR theory class and it's all very new to me. Kind of confusing. But, I will get through it. Even if I have to get a B. Besides, they say GPA doesn't matter in grad school because at EVERY grad school you have to maintain a 3.0 to stay in the program...so everyone has at least that when they graduate. And, simply put, no one cares about GPA. It's about ability and skill. So, I just need to learn as much as I can.
Also, started what I have dubbed the Pre-Wedding Diet. For Mom and Dad it's the BowFlex diet, but I have no BowFlex, so...you get my point. I work my arm muscles and abs a few times a week, but mostly it's just a low cal diet that calls for light muscle workouts and not so much cardio, other than the activities you do on a normal basis each day. So, I am two days into week two and going strong. I haven't really been tempted to eat anything that's not on the diet, and it helps that I hid all the food I owned that was not on the diet. Haha. Anyway, lost six pounds (!!) the first week and hoping for another four or five this week, but we'll see.
I have to go finish up a presentation PowerPoint now, but I'll try to be better about writing!
