I am pretty much done with school, well at least this term. I have three papers I have to write and two finals on Thursday of Finals week. But I just want to be done with these classes and I am ready for my summer classes and maybe working out. I know that since I started school I have not visited Dixon more than five times this school year and I have noticed some weight change in my body. It’s so hard to work out especially for me because I am really lazy but I am really scared of gaining more weight. I would recommend everyone to create a working out schedule and sticking to it. I have noticed a few people who have actually gained the freshman fifteen and I definitely don’t want to be one of them.
I have decided that this summer I am going to focus on getting good grades and getting in shape. It’s so easy to pack on some weight when one is surrounded by junk, greasy and fatty food but I have actually bought my own food and cooked for myself. It’s more effort but I feel better knowing what I am eating and how it is prepared. I love not having to worry about making food or cleaning up but I have to pay the high price of not receiving the best quality food and gaining some weight.
But anyhow I am really excited about having my own room and being able to wake up really late. I do wish I had the money to be able to take a real vacation but since that is not possible I am taking advantage of summer classes. Like I mentioned before summer classes are small and you get to interact with the professors in a better way. If anyone has the will power to go through the summer term go ahead and take some classes.
