Hello! How is everyone? I'm good. Things are finally calming down, i think.

I know it's been a few days since i posted last. I'm finally back to working 60-70 hour work weeks instead of 70-80 hour work weeks. I've decided that i need to take one weekend off a month from my part-time job just to take some time off and enjoy life. It's that time of year where everyone decides to cut hours since it's generally a slower time so i figure taking off a weekend will help them and most of all help me. :) It's kind of scary to do that because the whole reason i'm working a part-time job is so i can go back to school in August. It will all work out though. I know it will. I've calculated it and as long as i continue to be money smart i should have enough to pay for my first semester if i can't get student loans.

I can't wait to have extra time off. wooohoooo! I've had 2 days off this week and i'm like wow, what do i do now. lol Usually I only have 1 day off a week. It's been nice this week. I've been trying to catch up on sleep, emails, and many other things.

I haven't lost anymore but i haven't gained either. I'm still working on getting back into the water habit. It's hard to remember to drink water when you're so busy at work. I'm working on it. :)

*hugs* to everyone

Wow, I haven't posted in forever. I've still been working 75-80 hour work weeks. I did finally get
a day off today but that is because i called into my second job. I woke up with a horrible migraine.
I haven't had one that bad in forever. So i slept most of the day and i feel so much better. The new person is supposed to start this week and i'm supposed to have a day off this week. I can't wait. I won't know what to do. My last day off before today was November 15th. Yeah, not good i know but i do have a reason why i'm working so much.

I've decided to go back to school starting in August 2008. Yes, i know i already have a bachelor's degree in Business Management but i don't want to do that. I've always wanted to be able to help people in someway but not where i have to touch them or see blood and all of that stuff. Since i've started losing all of this weight i've been googling like crazy. Why does the body do this, or that? etc. How does this medicine work and the side effects?  I've been working in the pharmacy for years now and i've decided that i'm going to go back to school to be a Pharmacist. I'm really good at what i do and the pharmacists i've worked and work with think it's a great idea. 

Yep, that's right, a Pharmacist, which means about 6 more years of school. I do have to get really high grades in the pre-pharmacy classes before i can be accepted into a Pharmacy school. So i figure that will be the real test. If i can get the grades i need and want, then I'm going to do everything i can to get into Pharmacy school.

So the reason i'm working so much now is that i might have to pay for my first semester all by myself. I'm not sure how the whole student loan process works when you've declared bankruptcy. I will call them to find out and i'm hoping that the most i have to wait to borrow again is a year, which is fine because i'll be able to pay for my first semester.  I have a whole list of things that i have to call different people about and start the process.

I'm not just working for fun. lol I do have dreams and goals and i hope that i can make them happen. It's going to take a lot of hard work but i know i can do this. I'm still lost but i'm slowly finding out who i am and what makes me happy. :)

By the way, I'VE LOST 65 POUNDS NOW! I slowed my weight loss down so it's not coming off as fast. I felt like i was losing too fast and i DO NOT want excess skin. They say that the slower you lose the better it is for skin, that way it shrinks with you.  woooohoooo go me! Next goal is 70 pounds.

That's all for now. *hugs*
