mid-afternoon blogging

So I don't think I had any blog posts in November, how lame of me.
Times have been super busy, since I am actually acting like a student this semester, I say acting cause I don't feel like I am learning anything. In fact, I was thinking about it last night when I was giving myself a mini-manicure, but I don't think I have learned anything in college. Wait no..
I have learned how to become an excellent liar, and how to get out of doing any real work. I may actually be the laziest person you know. But what you don't know is it takes quite a bit of work to be as sneaky as I have been over the past ummmm, 6 1/2 years of college. Lots of procrastinating and late-night panic attacks have given me a keen sense of how much responsibility I have, and how much of it I actually have to live up to. Surprisingly not a lot. People are pretty satisfied with the bare-minimum. Sign of the times I guess.

that was random.

anywho, I totaly have lost 15 pounds since the begining of October. Fucking-sweet, right?! I am trying really hard to loose 5 pounds this week If I do then that will be 20 pounds in two months. but I have a feeling it will be more like 3 this week and that's not bad either though. Before I leave for christmas break I mos'def want to pass that 20 pound mark. Hopefully when I get back around January 8th-16thish I will be close to the 25-30 pound range!!!
I want to loose 40pounds by my birthday. It's totally possible if I stop being lazy.

ooooh San Marcos Sights and Sounds tonight.. what WHAAAAAAT!

ALRIGHT!

so when I started WW I decided that I wanted to lose 10 a month. That way I would lose almost 80 pounds by caitlin's wedding!! WELL....

It has only been three weeks of WW and I already met my monthly quota! 11.2 POUNDS IN THREE WEEKS!

That is freaking rad! I am so excited because really this week I didn't even try, I didn't walk as much as I needed to and I had beer, street vendor pizza, taco c, and jack in the box. AWESOME. Not that I am going to make all that fast food a habit again, but it is really encouraging that when I do skew from the diet it doesn't hurt me. And the only real reason it didn't is because I had all that but still had my daily points. YAY ME!

So I tried to calculate about how much I will lose by thanksgiving and... it should be about 20pounds! I can't wait to see everyone so I can actually hear about the results, because down here I see the same people everyday and I don't think it is noticeable to them.

I've also already thought of a plan for when I reach my first plateau in about 3months, which will be... I will step it up and get a personal trainer! It is my goal to look awesome for that wedding.. and I am so gonna!

Rockin'!

weight watchers RULES! I went to my meeting tonight, feeling not as confident in myself even though all week I thought I was doing great. I guess I was afraid of the weigh-in... but... I DID GREAT! I lost...

5 POUNDS IN ONE WEEK!

How awesome is that?! I know this isn't going to be a regular thing and I shouldn't think that it will be, but if I loose 5 pounds again next week that would freaking rule! Now I feel like loosing the weight that I want to *which is loosing 80 pounds by Caitlin's wedding* is totally possible! I also feel bad too, cause why did I not do this before, how could I have let myself get SO bad when it is SO easy to not be fat. I know I say this now and really it is going to take some time to get all this stuff off, but if it took me 5ish years to do this to myself then 1-2 years is really not that long to lose it all! Its gonna be great and I'll update next week with the new poundage.

a few things...

so my dad's face cancer might not/most likely isn't that bad. He isn't getting surgery until march, but he claims that is because he can't miss any football or he will be fired (he's a football coach)... I think it isn't till march because he is a big baby. Anyway it is the early signs of malignant melanoma, but no one will no for sure till his face gets cut off.

As far as school goes I have woken up from my haze of bad behavior! I finally made it a week with out missing a class, which I haven't done since the third weed of school! I have declared this weekend math weekend, and I have started work on my research proposal paper! I feel good about everything, and excited that it is pretty much mid-term time!

Also, after writing the blog "school, weddings, and fatties" I have decided I will be fatties no more! Last Tuesday I joined weight watchers and it is soooooo easy! Sure I am having trouble at night time when I usually indulge in prime time snacking but I'm working through it. I am trying not to eat past 9-10pm and I'm also working hard on eating breakfest and all that daytime stuff. . . see before I wouldn't eat all day and then binge like crazy at night on really bad stuff. But no more! In addition to the weight watchers yesterday I bought a super sweet treadmill for my house AND I LOVE IT! I just got done walking for an hour and I feel great, I love the way you feel after working out its so fantastical... or rather I love endorphins!
So I will keep ya'll posted on if I am loosing weight or not, first weight-in is on tuesday and I can't wait!

face cancer

my dad's got cancer of the face!


well to be more specific they found malignant melanoma on his face under his eye, suck.

how did I find this out? oh not by him or his wife calling and telling me, he called and had a big convo about it with my older sister earlier this afternoon and she didn't tell me till about an hour ago. It sure is great being treated like you're eight.

school, weddings, and fatties

So I guess I haven't been that good with the blogging, not that I think what I write is very interesting anyway.

I'm trying to make it through what might be my last fall semester in college. I use the work might because I don't have a very good track record when it comes to school. But I'm finally so close to graduating I can actually see the light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately before i can get through I have to complete a 300 hour internship. Its not really that bad, but i fell all this pressure like who/whatever I intern for will be my forever career. Currently I am on a wedding planner kick. I think it is something I can be really good at, but there is a lot of risk in that kind of business. I could also be some kind of government worker or HR manager, but where is the fun in that? So this is my current dilemma... try and intern doing something I could possibly love doing or intern somewhere that I almost certainly will not like? oye, not that there is a guarantee on either of those.. I don't have the most sparkling academic resume.

Other than that not a lot going on in my life, trying to decide Halloween plans and make it through the school week. Oh there is one other thing...

I'm tired of being fat and lazy all the time. I've tried to start this work out program but I seriously lack motivation (as if looking in the mirror isn't enough) I need to lose a crap ton of weight not just to be healthy and all that crap but I want to look good, buy fun clothes mostly.. yeah I guess I'm that shallow. One of the big reasons I want to lose weight if for my best friend's wedding... I refuse to be the biggest person there! I'm the maid of honor and I don't want to be all fatties and on display to everyone! I've got about nine months to lose as much weight as possible, ideally i would like to lose like 50+ pounds (told ya I was fatties)... we'll just have to see how that goes.

really? pt.2

Now it's McCain's turn,
I'm a little surprised at his vp pick, I think most people are too. I'm a little disappointed in McCain too. He basically did the same thing Obama did but on the flip. . . see to me Obama picked someone who made up for everything he lacks and McCain seems to have picked someone that is the opposite of him Sarah Palin is young, has only a little experience, and is a Chick. Which I think may have been a campaign manager's move. . . you Know, So now the GOP can say "look at us, look at us. We are going to make history too! We are going to put the first Female Vp in office.'' I think this may have been a bad idea for McCain. I'm sure some People dig it. but must don't Know anything about Palin. All I know is her social issues are Pretty standard republican... for example. she is against gay marriage and is against abortion. Honestly, that is a little disappointing to me. As a girl I thought she would be all about pro-choice.
Other than that I Know nothing about her. we", just have to Watch and See how this duo unfolds.

The debates should be goooood!

really?

So today we found out Obama's VP pick, and its Biden. So at first glance I can see the appeal. Biden is kind of making up for what Obama lacks, ex. foreign policy, tons of experience, etc. etc. BUT why would you pick someone to run with you that said numerous times "Obama isn't ready to be president" and also made a racist jab at you saying "you have the first mainstream African American who is articulate, nice, and clean and a nice looking guy"... ummm, really?

..... those are really only two bad things that I can think of, but still McCain is going to attack all the bad stuff Biden said about Obama before he dropped out of the prez race.


I wonder who McCain is going to pick?


I spent too much time on youtube today, that's where this came from.. haha.

babies having babies

To all you ladies that are my age... Why are y'all squeezing out babies?!

Has anyone else noticed this phenomenon of girls being married and already having children by the age of 25? Its pretty distressing for one of the two reasons...

1. Either this is a new social norm, and I'm left behind for lack of a husband and a kid

2. This is normal but I just didn't know because it took 24 years for me to notice that it is pretty reg for people to be married and have kids at my age... and I'm left behind for lack of a husband and a kid.

just a thought

So I've moved my blog from myspace here. Only because I feel like because of family I can't really say everything that happens, so there ya go.

I guess for potential new readers of my blog I can give some back story on myself
. My name is Kasey and I live in Texas
. I'm now approaching my last year of college. I've been in school since 2002 and finally I will get my BS in sociology in 2009. So yeah, its taken me two colleges and seven years just to get an undergrad degree.
. I have two cats,Tova and Georgia, that are completely crazy.
. For pretty much my entire life I have never been in a normal relationship so I have a warped view of dating
.I come across as apathetic on pretty much everything, but usually I care way too much.
. I also have a small issue with social anxiety
