Up again at 4:30 AM and two-hours at the gym. Slowly but surely I’m seeing results. I wouldn’t say I’m a patient person, but as I’ve gotten older I seem to be more willing to let things unfold gradually. I think this has been one of my biggest flaws all my life; the want of instant gratification. Going back to school has done a lot to re-train my impulsiveness…and knitting…and sewing…and weight-lifting.
One of the things I’ve done is I no longer weigh myself. I know I’m firming up and losing weight, but I’m not starving myself and working towards a constant “weight” goal. I figure that if I’m consistent, don’t shove a bunch of crap down my pie-hole (Tiago will undoubtedly say I do when I’m home on the weekends) and be fairly consistent with an exercise regimen, I should get into better shape.
I’ve also decided that my spirit-animal is a bearded walrus. 😉
My admissions mentor at Gonzaga got the results from my transcripts that I had sent up from WGU and I only need to complete four more course (all finance related) and I can start Gonzaga in the fall. Now, it’s just the waiting game to see if I get accepted and this can take up to two months to find out. I wonder if it’ll be via letter or email. But, aside from that, I have a TON of school work to get done this next term to complete all my courses and get my BA in Business by August and college algebra remains my albatross, or as I call it, my mental block since I have not gotten the muster to really apply myself to studying it as thoroughly as I should.
