Well it's 2008. I don't know where 2007 went, it just flew by. I don't know if it was because I was always doing something or what. I don't really feel like I accomplished much last year except for more debt, and a somewhat solid relationship.
I wanted to find a new job because Walgreens just wasn't doing it. I've been with the company for about 3 years now and things were just looking bad. At the moment we have decent managers and a tolerable group of coworkers. Sure there are some that I just want to say, "get off your high horse this is Walgreens!" but I keep it in for the most part. I've suprisingly made a lot of friends there and met some interesting people (employees and customers). It's like a little crazy family sometimes, there's the one or two you hate, the close ones, mother figures, brothers and sisters, etc. Jessica and Ms. Taka are like mothers to me. They are always looking out for me and give me advice about things in my life with school, relationships, and friends. It's good to have people to look up to. Since things right now are okay at work, and I need money I'm stuck there but hopefully not forever.
I tried to get in shape last year too. That didn't work. I'd work out for a week or two and then get lazy and not do it. I'd tell myself that walking to and from the dorm to classes was enough of a workout. It's not true. Once the holiday's ended I came to find out that I'm at my highest weight ever, I was shocked and upset. I've decided that I really need to stop eating junk food and cut down on dining out. I'm also going to use the fitness machines at the dorm to my advantage while I have them. It's so hard to eat healthy while living with five other girls who always order out or just go to get fast food. I have to try to buy healthy food and actually find time to make and eat it.
This semester at school should hopefully be a good one. For the most part my classes are two days a week and I have much free time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I have one online class which I'm hoping will be easy since I did pretty good on my last one, but they are all different. I have mainly business classes so the work might be tougher but at least I'll have time to work on it. I really need to stop procrastinating, I'm going to try to do my assignments when they are given to me. We'll see how long that actually lasts. Also with the free time I'll be able to work at the library more, which unfortunately wont be opening back up until the fall.
Last but certainly not least, the very up and down relationship of Danny and Vicki. This past year we've really grown. We were together for most of the year since April and only with one or two short breaks and we're still going strong. There are still a few issues that we need to work out but all relationships do, none are perfect. We both have some trust issues, his are more understandable though. Me? I'm just paranoid. My reasoning (which could be completely off) is that since I've waited so long to be with him and that it took a lot to get him that he could easily be gone. I know he loves me and we mean the world to each other. I think soon enough we'll overcome our issues but it won't be until we live together, I think, we'll see. Anywho the main point is that we've grown and we're in love, and nothing and no one can change that.
So to sum up my points... Walgreens is getting better. I need to start getting my health on the right track. School is decent and should be good this semester. And the Danny and Vicki relationship rollercoaster is running smoothly.
For the new year, I hope to try new things and try to get a little more serious with life, especially with the big 2-1 coming up!
