bananandrea Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 bananandrea's back. Tell your friends! Lol. Seriously though. As some of you know I had to take some time off for some health and life issues. So here is a quick update for those who were curious. (This might be repetitive for those who follow me on twitter... but deal anyways ) A) Tonsils: I got super sick awhile ago with some super form of strep and some dehydration issues(which you shouldn't feel sorry for me for. I just really need to drink more effin water). Officially- When spring comes I need to go back to an ENT and see about getting my tonsils out. They want me to wait till after the winter to decrease chances of me getting sick or something like that. I GOT MY OWN PLACE! Yup. I have my own apartment. No roomies. No drama. Just me and a studio apartment. It's small. But it's mine. I love it. It has just enough space for me and my stuff(but it makes me realize I need to get rid of more). It has a cute kitchenette, decent sized bathroom and like 13 foot ceilings. A HUGE window that lets in a ton of light. I will post pictures if you guys are interested. C) I got a second job! Yup. My other job is telemarketing 30 hours a week, which has been great! And I love it, and it pays really well. I had been fine with what I had been making there, but what with my new place, I needed some extra money. So I got a part time job selling shoes at a department store nearby lol. It's super fun, about 20 hours a week. Ok, honestly I HATE working retail, but it's good for me to do. It pushes me a little and once I am there I don't hate it as much as I pretend to So yes. That doesn't seem like much. But it really has taken a lot out of me lately. With the new year coming up- I have some things that I want to accomplish. I know I probably should wait till the challenge to post this, but these are more general whereas my challenge goals will be more specific. 1) get a decent sleep schedule 2) find a home church 3) get in shape (vague I know) 4) eat healthier (vague I know. Shooting for Paleo with minimal dairy by the end of the year) 5) become more minimalist (vague I know. Lol) 6) Art more 7) volunteer somewhere once a month Those are some vague ones. Lol. Not sure what else I want to do yet. I am sure I will continue to add to that list as challenges come up and as things happen in my life.

Guest guest4729 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I would totally love to see a picture of your current place. I love seeing where people live - it's kinda creepy but I think it's super awesome to see how people live and how they organize (or don't organize) their things. Speaking of which...I need to do some cleaning. >.> Quote Link to comment

bananandrea Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Woot. I actually have been starting my sleep thing a little early, and I must say. I feel awesome. Been going to be around 11 and waking up at 8 ready to wake up. No longer the hour or two of "Wah, wah. I don't wanna. I don't want to. I don't wanna wake up." I just stretch, get up and start being productive. WHY HAVE I NOT DONE THIS BEFORE?!
