Bee-like

These last couple of weeks have definitely kept me busy- back to school (I still haven't completely unpacked after more than a week), buying books, getting back into the groove of studying, trying to eat healthy and NOT drink so much and fit in some exercise classes. Yeah that's right, I'm one of those people dieting for a New Year's resolution. Actually, I'm pretty happy with the way I look; I'm just trying to be healthy, especially since I got so sick this time last year due to what I can only assume was because I wasn't eating very healthy. My diet of Ramen noodles may not have a lot of calories but it also doesn't have any nutritional value either. This year it's all about vitamins, eating veggies, and some exercise (which I get walking to school and around town everyday). I also discovered that our student gym has free workout classes! When I first entered the school in 2005 I signed up for a yoga class that cost me about $30- it was over crowded and the instructor was just a little bit too out there for even me (there is only so much I hear about moonbeams before I was to puke). I had no idea that they have about a dozen different exercise classes to choose from for free until my housemates invited me to come along last week. Now I'm hooked and my body is sore.

So far I've been gone out drinking once since my return to Athens (truely an accomplishment according to my fellow classmates). I went to Las Vegas High-roller themed party last Friday night. We all got dressed up, (think rat pack)- I bought some cheap champagne to drink, asked guys if I could blow on their dice ("the lady is a tramp") and called everyone fabulous. Saturday night I resisted the urge to bar hop, stayed in and watch a couple of movies. Then Sunday a bunch of worked out for 3 hours! Talk about being sore!
