"If you are going through hell, keep going."

What a great quote from Mister Winston Churchill!  I may not be going through hell (it's not that bad!), but I am super stressed out.  Grad school is consuming most of my time and my mind.  It's hard to think about anything else.  I have several assignments due, quizzes, tests, and case studies.  I just can't wait for it to be over!!  I'm ready to start my career and make some real money.

Aside from school, things have been okay...of course there isn't much going on other than school.  The weather has been absolutely gorgeous!  I hadn't got to enjoy it yet this year, but yesterday, I finally took that new bike out that I had told y'all about!  One of my classmates took my brother and I on a bike ride around Greenville.  We went about 14 miles or so.  It was so awesome...first off, I hadn't ridden a bike in what seems like forever!  But it's one of those things you don't forget how to do (thank goodness!).  Secondly, I got a little bit of sun on my face and my arms got a little bit of a tan!  About time...I'm so pale, I probably blind people when I step into the sunlight. 

Tomorrow I am headed to Myrtle Beach with my mom's boyfriends daughter (get that?!).  It is her birthday and we are going to live it up down there!  I need a mini 'vaycay' so this should be fun.  Her name is Asheley...and she is a riot!  we always have a blast together though...she brings out a little bit of my wild side hehehe
 
So don't think I've forgotten about working out, because yes, I still do it at least 5 times a week.  I have been working out with a Corporal who works with me and it's been helping a great deal.  Working out with someone actually motivates me more and he pushes me to do more than I think I can do.  He said he can have me do 10 pushups on my own by April 9...but I don't think he will win that bet.  I did 8 on Monday, but they were on the Assisted Dip/Pull-up machine.  I only had 25 lbs on there, but still.  I'm going to try my best though, so wish me luck!!  I seriously need to get my diet on track though.  I know I keep saying this, but I mean it!  I am completely unhappy with the way my body looks, and I need to do something about it.  I will admit that it is so hard to prepare meals and cook healthy when school is as overwhelming as it is for me.

Can't wait for summer .... :)
Have a blessed day yall!
