WELL, life has been ooc since I last updated this lovely blog of mine.
February has been tough for me.. I've been to the dr a number of times, had an endoscopy, biopsy, about 8 vials of bloodwork done and there's still no knowing what is wrong w me and why i've been so sick since the end of last Nov. I have another appt a wk from Monday to get the results of the endoscopy and biopsy and maybe that will give us some idea of what I need to do from here... one thing my DR told me is that I am extremely anemic and so he prescribe a strong version of iron pills for me to start taking and I have a followup appt in the end of april too so thatas good too I guess? I'm just so tired of being exhasuted and sick all the time. The good news in life is that I'm getting more energy back b/c ive been forcing myself to eat, even if it makes me nauseous or feeling ridic. B/c of my extra energy these past two weeks, I've started running more almost back to my running from last October/November. I've still lost quite a bit of weight since last nov (probs about 12lbs total) because I've gained some back but it is ridiculous. sometimes i dont feel like eating anything so ill eat a bowl of blue bunny reduced fat, no sugar added double strawberry ice cream for dinner and then the next day I'll have lost 2lbs. it is bananas, my body.
ANYways, back to my running. Last wk I was running about 30 mins 4x a week and this week I did much more! I ran my first 10+ mile run since November on Monday, then I had a light run on Tues and yesterday (abt 4 miles each) and then today, oh today. I ran about 85 minutes, 13.66 miles. I am still so sore and tired but its a good feeling to be like this again. It has been so long but its nice that I am getting more energy back and am able to run liek this again.
The most exciting part of my life right now is the Disney Princess Half Marathon Weekend! I am leaving bright and early tomorrow morning for DISNEY WORLD!!!!! I am sosososo excited! I have been working towards this life goal since August of 2009 when I weighed about 218lbs. I'm now abt 70ish lbs lighter and in shape and ready for this race! One of my favorite sorority sisters is running also and staying in the same Disney resort as my family and I so we are catching the bus to the race together and then meeting up afterwards to take pictures with our medals :) I am so excited! I need to figure out where I am going to meet up with my family when I get done or what to do with my phone b/c I have no way of contacting them after so we will see I guess....I need to make sure I print everything out and whatnot before going to bed tonight.
Also, I havent even started packing. I mean, I have a pile of clothes in my room that I need to put in my carryon bag and rolly bag so I need to get on it. I need to find my old nike shoes to wear when we go to the park on Saturday. I really want to wear my stretchy yoga pants the day we go to the park but IDK I might wear jeans so it'd look nice when we take pictures w/ characters and whatnot. I j want to be comfortable and in unconstricting clothing b/c it makes my stomach hurt when I eat ANYTHING so Idk. We will see but I'll pack everything j in case. I want to go to Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom but now I am thinking I want to do Magic Kingdom and MGM (which apparently since I was last there in 2002, they renamed to hollywood studios? LAMMMME.) but we'll see what my family wants to do...
I just hope my dad doesnt ruin this for me and make it even more stressful like he does to most things in my life that I am most excited for so we will see I guess.
School is already stressful and so is work. I've been trying to find jobs for next year and I've already applied to quite a few but who knows what will happen. I'm taking only 4 classes but I have a total of 13 credits so its still alot of work. For my elder law class, I have a 20pg paper due on the last day of classes, for my advanced family law practice class I have a 10pg memo due on the last day of classes too. THEN, I have 2 finals, one for my Income Tax class and then my Bar Refresher course, which is my last final, ON A SATURDAY hahaha. I have a break b/w my last final and graduation from May 7-22 but there is a Dean's Reception on the 21st my family and I are going to as well. I am just really excited to have 2 stress free weeks before starting intense bar studying. OK, I dont want to think about that j yet and get stressed out.
Its almost 730 already and I still need to put my laundry in the dryer and pack. I think I will go upstairs to back in like 15 min to watch Jeopardy as I pack everything for this weekend!
I will definitely be better about posting later on now that I am feeling better finally. I will also be sure to post pictures from my half marathon on sunday next wk sometime. Next wk will be hectic for me too b/c i have plans to meet up with friends for dinner on monday, lunch on tues, Alpha Gam EC in high point on tues night, dinner w friends on weds night, and then on thurs, a WLA Exec meeting at lunch, Judges Panel on Thurs night, and then the MPRE (multistate professional responsibility exam). I took it in November but I didnt pass by like only a few points and that was probs one of the most depressing things in life. I am for srs gunna have to pass next Sat or else I will be stuck having to RETAKE that damn exam again in August, the morning of one of my friends' wedding. it will be interesting. I am j going to study as much as I can the next wk and half so I can pass. I hope Im ethical enough this time around for North Carolina.
ANYWAYS, time for some Jeopardy and packing!
xoxo, MANISHA!
