Excuses, Excuses

So I realize I'm a little late, especially since my weigh in is tomorrow and I haven't posted the stats for next week.  The main reason for this is the giant load of work that's been assigned since we got off from spring break.  While it is a lot, I feel like I'm doing pretty well in my subjects, so I'm thankful for that at the least.

Snivy! Although he's evolved now...

Another thing eating up my time is the new addition to my obsession - Pokemon Black.  Although a lot of the Pokemon in this generation are kind of hokey or just sad, really, I do love the graphics, the interface, and the plot-line.  I know other people don't really like the whole 'be a hero-save the world' thing and would rather just be Pokemon Masters, but I'm a fan.  My starter was Snivy, which I promptly named Severus. And once you start naming Pokemon names from Harry Potter, you can't just STOP. That's ridiculous.

Last week I went to a conference about design and technology, and it was very inspiring.  Each speaker had an amazing story to tell and such passion about what they do, that it was hard not to be enthralled by the whole thing. The panel discussions that they set up, especially the final one, were the most interesting because they interacted with the audience and it was informal but still very educating. :)

Now, I feel it's time to make up for my week of silence, so here are my stats!
Fun Stats ::
Start Weight :: 185 (January 19)
Last Week :: 180
Current Weight :: 177
Goal Weight :: 150 (October 9)
So last week I went back down to my lowest weight! I was seriously surprised, I'm not going to lie.  Coming off of spring break and losing weight was pretty spectacular.  I hope I can continue this downward pattern consistently!

Of course I can't forget the make-up and food! My make-up was inspired by my shirt and my desire to be loud and colourful.

This is the corn-beef and cabbage and potatoes my sister and I made for Saint Patrick's day! Let me just say, I love this meal, so imagine my surprise when I brought it to my apartment and my roommates were like "Oh! What's that?" or "Ewww, you eat that?" Dear people, this dish is a glorious classic. Do not hate, LOVE. You never know how you'll really feel until you try something new!

Try Something New and Hug Somebody!
