Life is always better at the beach

Hello my fellow readers; this week will be one to remember. My vacation starts soon as I clock out of work Friday at 4pm EST and I can't wait! I will be going to an east coast beach called Wildwood. Not only will this be my vacation but it will mark the one year anniversary for me and my girlfriend. Both of us are looking forward to this for many reasons but the biggest is just to relax and spend time with each other. Both of our jobs and lives have been stressing us out and it shows, so this is a great time for a vacation.

As for school I will try to finish everything up by Friday. We leave Sunday morning but I do not want to deal with school while I am at the beach. I did my discussion post Tuesday and posted it today. Today I will do my blog, read, and take a quiz for a class. Tomorrow I will respond to a classmate and Friday as well. That is all the homework for this week thank god!

Drugs & more drugs, oh my!

Hello readers, I just got done watching a good comedy called “Youth in Revolt" and was it funny. It really was about a teenager boy who meets a girl while he's on vacation but she like bad boys I guess you could say. So the kid creates a bad side of him, and eventually wins her over. As for the title of this entry, you will just have to watch the movie to find out what I mean. Overall, I would give the movie 8 out of 10 stars.

With my drug free life (since I was born!) I am taking it day by day with work and school. Just as long as I stick to my schedule I have I should be fine. What I like to do is post my response to the discussion post on Wednesdays and reply to one classmates post on Thursday and Friday. Saturday I start to do any projects and Sunday I read what I have to for the week. Monday is test day for me and Tuesday is the day I make sure everything is handed in. So far it has worked well for me; although I should read on Wednesdays before seminar, but what I am doing now is working great for me.

Oh, and p.s. I found out that if you type in Microsoft word for spell and grammar check you can highlight the whole paragraph and you can drag it over to here!

Another Philadelphia story...

I just watched the movie Legion and although I did not like it; the movie had one line that I liked. " If you don't wake up tomorrow, if it turns out today is your last day on earth, would you be proud of what you have done in this life? Because if you ain't, then start getting squared". It's funny what a year can make. This time a year ago I was still unsure where my life would be going and my answer to that quote would have been a no. I'm with a wonderful women and I'm in school now, so it's a strong yes. I'm not proud of my job but the smart thing to do is keep the job I have because it will be hard to find another job that pays what I'm getting now. I often think that I should take a pay cut now and find a job that can get me ready for my career. Right now I work for Wal-Mart and I don't know of any jobs in the company that involves nutrition. I'm sure there are some though.

On another note most of Philadelphia is all flyered up. Two teams in the Stanley cup finials that has not won the cup in over 30 years. I despise city's that win all the time. Boston, LA, Pittsburgh and Chicago are city's that don't need anymore championships. Philadelphia is playing against the wonderful city of Chicago, a city that was once dominated by Michael Jordan in the 80's and 90's. Yeah sure the Phillies won the series in 2008 but a city that was in a 30, 35+ year drought of no professional championship needs another one! I do however feel sorry for the Cubs, they have not won the world series in over 90 years. So I hope they win sometime in my life just because I feel sorry for them.

work,fun,madness.

A few more weeks and I will be on vacation. I can't wait! I will be going to Wildwood ( an east cost beach) with my girlfriend for three nights. It will mark our 1 year together. Ah, how time goes by in a year; every moment with her I will cherish . June 13th is almost here and I'm not looking forward to doing school work that week, but it must be done. I wish I could forget about work and school because they stress me out the most, but 1 for 2 is not bad.

Work is a whole different story with stress, I'm glad I won't have to deal with them for a week. Life at Walmart is not fun; to my readers, boycott the store, don't shop there! It is a mutual feeling when customers hate employee's. They come in to shop with bad attitudes all the time and I wish I could say, stay the F-ck out of my store. But I don't because I need money. Listen, just because you shop in Walmart with your 40K+ a year money does not give you the right how to tell me how to do my -20K a year job. So for one week I will forget all this and hopefully I can day dream all week about the day I get a new job... hopefully something with nutrition!
