Okay so my awesome friend Catherine recently started a diet and alas i have fallen off the wagon. I have the opposite problem of Cat, she tends to eat a little more then necessary while i do the opposite. I tend to only have one meal a day and i force myself to eat waaaay more than i should at that meal. Because of this i am eating way to many calories at once so my body is producing more fat AND by only eating once i day i do not keep my metabolism up. (a girl in my class is a nutrition major and is graduating in December so i feel this advice is accurate) So what i have to do is force myself to eat more often and in smaller portions every day. I also asked for a special workout equipment thing from my parents for Christmas since i have an extremely difficult time working out because i have a bad back(my back randomly spazes when i twist it the wrong way, it is a long story)

So here is my new step by step guide to eating better

Step 1 - before i go to bed i am going to make 2 half peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (or tune because i'm allowed to cheat a little)
Step 2 - fill snack bags with goodies like grapes or cereal
Step 3 - not be so fickle and BUY SNACK FOOD!

So now every day i eat a sandwich on my way to class, i have a snack bag for class and sandwich on the way home! that is at least 5 hours of my day where i eat small portions of food often. I'm not super worried about making all of my meals healthy but i think this will help. I already walk my roommates dog most days and i park far away for school/errands but i just don't lose weight. Hopefully this will help.

Sorry for no witty humor or what not, this is my reminder/motivator post ^_^

So Halloween was pretty fun. I went to a costume party the day before and, needless-to-say, Halloween was spent in recuperation. I can't find my pictures yet but i know they will sprout up on facebook soon enough and i can add one in here. I went as a mummy! It was super cute and all thanks to cat, she helped me construct the majority of my costume!

oh and the most amazing thing happened  few days ago... A NEW EPISODE OF GOOD EATS!!!

Not only did he do a Halloween special but he made candy corn... CANDY CORN >,<

btw it is my favorite candy in the corn family.

okay i'm spent, i only got a few hours of sleep last night because chris had the tv at a deafening 45 volume! ... my tv only goes up to 70-ish. So i am gonna try to sleep for 3 hours before class. lame only 2 pictures i know and i have the complete inability of drawing a balding chibi alton >,< he is still cute though!!

okay so skipping might not have been the best idea... turns out i skipped a test >,< fortunately my teacher is letting me do a make-up test, no questions asked. So now I have to study for that which is tomorrow at 2. I also have another make up test tomorrow from when i was sick for a week. I have procrastinated on studying so now i have 2 tests to study for. My other make-up test is at 10 am and is supposed to take at least 2 hours -_- sad times.

Therefore I have no illustrations today, sorry. Also pray for me dear readers, pray for me hard =/

so today I had a series of bad luck. I actually woke up early-ish for once and the day started pretty well, up by 10, played some computer, and then it is time to go to class... this is where the bad luck began... I shall illustrate it for clarity -_-;

first I couldn't find my cute and ridiculously comfy slipper boots...

then I couldn't find my keys. I called Chris and he said to check on top of the fridge... WHY WOULD THEY BE THERE?!

Low and behold, there they were.

Still couldn't find my boots which meant i had to wear my horribly uncomfortable, ankle bleeding shoes =(

Then every FREAKING light turned red on me. Traffic fail.

When i finally did get there I couldn't find a single parking space except for the double parked jerkface... My car was to fat to fit in a half space, it needs a diet. LESS GAS FOR YOU!

So after all that drama i simply decided to skip!

YAY!!!!!! great success! Plus by skipping I remembered to do my homework, double success!

I was pretty full of win after that.

Crazy detail I know but I need to stay awake till class at 8 am >,<

So today i had the pleasure of learning that money does not buy you a real education or anything even resembling knowledge... I was in my geography class and the teacher was explaining really basic things like erosion and rock configuration and she mentioned physical changes in rocks i.e. freeze and thaw as how rocks break up... no one got it. So here is the example she gave in class... it made me laugh so hard in my head.

to explain, rocks break up when water gets in the cracks and freezes which expands and make the cracks bigger, eventually breaking the rock. (she actually said this and people didn't get it still)

lolz, poor rock is about to become pebbles.

So now my class thinks physical erosion happens super fast.. but at least they get it *sigh* The worst part is that this is for my TEACHING geography... these people plan to be TEACHERS!!!

I worry for out future.

So doodling and then taking pictures of my doodles failed immensely, as you can see... hmmm ms paint maybe? i dunno, I;m sooooo lazy though *sigh*

So my boyfriend made the grevious mistake of buying me my favorite game on xbox... I don;t think he ever wants to play again, at least that's what he is leading me to believe.

WOOT!!! Rachel is victorious

So I found some funny WOW jokes the other day, I think I shall share them.

*If your girlfriend's panties become an epic drop.... you might play too much WoW. 

*Your momma is so fat is takes 5 warlocks to summon her 

*This Jesus guy is getting some terrible lag, it took him 3 days to respawn 

*A gnome walks into a bar. The bartender had a jar of cash and was hosting a contest to see who can make the tauren laugh, the gnome enters it and in moments the tauren falls to the ground laughing. The gnome collects his money and leaves, a few months later he comes back and there is another jar of cash waiting to collected. The contest this time was to make the same tauren cry. The gnome asks the bartender if he can have a moment with the tauren and the bartender allows him. Once again within a few moments the tauren is crying. When the gnome came to collect the money, the bartender asked how he did it. He replied, "First i told him my schlong was bigger, then i showed him it was true." 

bwahahaaha those made my day, they aren't even that funny, they just remind me that there are people out there that are bigger nerds than I am ^_^
