3:30pm: Summer Review
I love how everyone on Livejournal has these life-altering revelations throughout the summer!

*This post will contain no life-altering revelations

Though, my summer hasn't been monotonus exactly... I'm attempting this workout thingie called Hip Hop Abs. It's HILARIOUS, lemmie tell you. So funny, and you look like a complete idiot doing it, but hey, if it works? Kewl.

I've so far stuck to the program for almost the whole week, one more day to go of Week One. And, as Harvey's has cut me to the bare minimum of shifts per week, I actually have time to go camping!

Well, that and our truck broke down two days before our trip, and will be ready half way through the trip. My mom's going to canoe back out of the campground, drive the loaner car back to Brampton and then take me and the fixed truck back with her for the rest of the trip. Which is great, because I get antsy during the school year if I don't get my 'time away in the forest' fix. Plus, I have a knack for navigating the map of lakes and land masses. For some reason I can do this easier than I can read a simple road map... but maybe it all goes back to girls (in general) associating more with landmarks than street names and kilometers. The tricky part is reading the map and then picking that section out in real life to scale, because it's a lot different than you would assume from the map alone.

Right, anyway, this is my summer! Harvey's doesn't really count as an accomplishment for my summer, but at least it's a low-stress, "whatever" kind of job.

And yet, am I practicing?

...

......

Okay, okay! I am the worst musican in the world! I am a performance major without any sort of self-motivation/dicipline! I should be handcuffed to my bassoon and the reed glued in my mouth until I practice every day for hours... or at least for one day!

Sheesh, it's bad. But I did practice a few times this summer... more than five times... that's more than two summers ago, and less than last summer... Must beat last summer's record if only so McKay doesn't sniff me out and kill me. He knows me too well :S

Well, it's a new month, and if I can create an excersizing habit, then I can create a practicing one! But with procrastination it is best to start with the smallest of goals and work up from there. Today's goal: Excersize in the morning (check!), practice in the afternoon (... will do!).

Probably should stop drinking this pepsie.... it defeats both the purpose of working out and prevents me from practicing without getting pepsie in my bassoon. Speaking of bassoons... I'm not getting it fixed this summer... but Mckay can't kill me, because i just don't have a spare $1000 dollars lying around!
