Day 29- Hopes, Dreams, and Plans for the Rest of the Year

This is a very good question. I never know what to say when people ask what my hopes and dreams are. Especially when people ask where I see myself in 5 years. I dont know why, but that question is so difficult for me.

I have no clue what I want to accomplish the rest of the year. I havent planned this out, but I guess now would be the time. I guess I'll make a list again...that seems to work for me

Hopes and Dreams for 2010

-actually learn to play the piano...maybe take piano lessons

-purchase my apartment and remodel the kitchen and bathroom

-finish paying off my credit cards

-save some money

-do something cool to my boring ass hair

-lose weight and get healthy

-learn to love salad just as much as I love chocolate cake

-continue to find great music that inspires and makes me feel good

-go to Vegas and to a caribbean island that is NOT Dominican Republic

-go back to school and get my masters (this might have to be for 2011..or 2012...or 2013 lol)

-go to more live shows (so far I wanna go see Kings of Leon again, Lady Gaga, and Muse!!)

-maybe get married....MAYBE

-figure out what I was meant to do with my life

-find what it is that will make me happy

-start to actually live my life

Day 28- This Year (so far) in Great Detail

Day 26-Your Week in Great Detail

This might be difficult since I have terrible memory and my life is so boring that I cant possibly remember all the mundane details of this past week. So WARNING: this might bore you to death.

Lets start at the beggining of the week:

Monday-I probably woke up late as I have been doing all week, and I most likely got to work after 9am. I know I did nothing productive at work on Monday. I mostly hung around and talked to co-workers all day. I was on the internet looking for things to do. I also became obssessed with The Black Keys. I listened to their new album all day long. Also listened to Band of Horses new album all day long. Great albums, if I hadnt said so already.

I also paid bills so I had a little panic attack when I noticed my bank balance decrease significantly. I was also depressed for a while because I have no money. I vowed not to spend another dime unless it was on gas for my car.

I left work at 5 since i was doing nothing there anyway. I think I reheated some dinner from Sunday and watched the "House" season finale. It was great. Cuddy finally admits to House that she does love him and she broke it off with Lucas. Wohooo!! I love that she tells him "I do love you but I dont want to love you." Awesome! After that, I probably just layed around until midnight like I usually do.

Tuesday-Work was slightly more productive this day. I did less fooling around with co-workers and actually did some work. I dont remember anything special that needs to be mentioned. I did go to my parents house after work and hung around for a little. Then I went to the gym. It was my first time back in about 2 months. I saw the same people there. Had a pretty good workout, I pushed my limits on the elliptical and ended up sore because of course I dont know how to stretch.

After 2 hrs at the gym, I came back home and made myself a spinach omellette, which was really good. I most likely watched TV and went to bed. Fascinating I know

Wednesday-I decided to work from home today because Im broke and I realized that I would save on gas money if I work from home twice a week instead of once. I did manage to get some work done but I mostly watched some TV and surfed the internet. I was debating to go to the gym but was still so sore from Tuesday, that I decided against it.

I caught up on American Idol DVR from Tuesday right before I watched that days episode where they eliminated one more contestant. They were down to the final 3 and eliminated one more person, so now its the final two: Lee and Crystal-which everyone knew would be in the final 2. My vote is with Lee, hes pretty awesome

Thursday-I described this day in my previous post. To sum it up, I worked and I played softball where I got a battle wound on my shin and Im still sore.

Friday-the day hasnt ended but so far I havent done much. Im working from home today and woke up past 9am and in pain. I've gotten some work done but not much because there isnt much to do until next week. Im still listening to The Black Keys and Band of Horses and I cant decide what I want to do today. Its a beautiful day and its hot as the devils balls but I feel like being outside all day. I just have no idea of what I want to do.

So yeah, this has been my week. Exciting...NOT. I did warn you in the beginning though

Day 25- Your Day In Great Detail

Let's see....I woke up at 7:35am this morning, which was exactly 1 hr after I set my alarm clock. The hot water was not hot enough during my morning shower, which pissed me off, but I must admit it was refreshing to take a lukewarm almost cold shower.

I got to work before 9:15am and made my coffee and had Chocolate Cheerios (the shit) without any milk. The I answered some e-mails, updated some write ups and worked on reconciling some accounts until about 11:30. At this point, I took a walk to the lunch room just to get away from my desk because I had bought last nights leftover Chicken with spinach and tomatoes mixed with wheat pasta for lunch.

I continued to work on reconciling some accounts for work until 4:30pm, then I left to play Softball. I was so nervous because this was only my second time playing and Im not exactly an athlete. I did okay the first time I played but nowhere near as good as the others. So I was freaking out the whole ride there and the whole time I changed into some sweats, t-shirts and sneakers. We didnt really practice, which made me even more nervous.

So I ended up drinking two beers to calm my nerves, which didnt really work. I sucked but we won both games we played. I did manage to hit the ball almost everytime it was pitched to me. I ended up on third base one time, and made it to second once and to first base 2 or 3 times. I also got hit in the shin with the softball...twice on one leg and once in the other. I have a huge knot on my shin, but its cool. I call them battle wounds.

By the time the game ended I was so sore and felt like I pulled a muscle. I dropped a friend off at the Metro North Train station and went to the McDonald's drive thru ( I was not going anywhere near the stove that night) I got a salad..bleh. I really wanted a cheeseburger.

During eating my dinner, I watched the season finale of "The Office," which was hilarious! Then I watched "Tough Love Couples," a show that just caught my interest. I whined and complained about my soreness and the pain in my legs, while my boyfriend ignored me and claimed I was exaggerating, which to some extreme I was, but I was also really in pain. I ended up dozing off sometime after 12:30 and I cant remember anything else after that.

Note to Self: STRETCH before playing

Day 24-A Photo of Something That Shows Where You Live

Does this mean a pic of the city? State? County? I currently live in Bronxville, which really is Yonkers because I dont live in Bronxville village but my address and zip code say Bronxville, so thats where I live.

I really love this location because it almost feels like a city but its a suburb. I live in an area full of co-ops and right by the Metro North. There are always people strolling around. I have a Starbucks and a Dunkin Donuts, as well as a 7-11 and CVS right down the block from me. A few more blocks down and I am in the village of Bronxville,which is so beautiful and I absolutely love it.

I dont have pics of the area where I live, so Ill just put up a pic of my apt because technically, isnt that where I live? I love my apt even though there are things I want to change about it, I still really like it. Its a co-op and I am hoping that with some luck, I can purchase it soon.

My "dining room"-its small because its a little alcove right at the entrance of the apt

My kitchen-also very small and probably my least favorite room in the house. If I buy the apt, I will have the kitchen remodeled and made more modern

My Living Room-one sided view. Its a pretty big living room and I really like it. We spend a lot of time in here so its pretty comfy

My Bedroom-My favorite room in the house, minus the forrest green carpet, which I would change if I purchased the place. I love my bedroom. Its so relaxing and we get a lot of sunlight in there. Thats all Ineed....
