Cleanse.

I've been on summer vacation for about six weeks now. And like other summers, I haven't accomplished much at this point of my break. I spent a few days visiting my parents in Houston, but I wouldn't say this summer has been very productive so far. If I'm not spending hours on my feet at my retail job, I'm tidying up the house (read: trying), watching basically whatever is on TV, or more recently, dragging myself with the utmost strength doing the aforementioned because I am sick. Who gets sick in 90 degree weather anyways?

I should have started summer a little better. Maybe I could have started baking cakes again, read more books, even making bracelets. Truthfully my mind has been elsewhere and I hate having these kind of emotional distractions. So what's a girl to do?

Food poisoning, along with a few pounding migraines, a couple more upset stomachs and some body aches and nerve-chilling shivers later, it's evident that my formula for a planned summer isn't working. Clearly I need to take better care of myself, and with any hope, a "better" me can create all the motivation needed to get everything done that needs to be dealt with this summer.

I could start by eating better (step one: actually eat something), perhaps fitting in some exercise a couple days a week (unsurprisingly, being a couch potato can really cramp up my muscles), and creating a better living environment (the bedroom needs some Swiffer plus more). I sit here and ponder what I'm going to do next and I can't come to a definitive choice on where to begin. But I did eat a yogurt for breakfast this morning. Progress?

Starting new.

I'm basically halfway finished my college career. Scary! And what's even scarier? Not knowing what the next two years will entail. I have been pretty weak with the blogging this year, which is pretty sad. Now that summer is right at my fingertips, I can try to get back to blogging ways. Since I'm emotionally and mentally at a different place in my life now, I thought it'd be appropriate to create a new blog. I can't remember how many blogs I've created in my lifetime, but hopefully I stick through with this one. I don't know where exactly I'm going with this blog, but for now it'll be a home for some of my thoughts and adventures, and perhaps some of my dabbles in politics/fashion/sports/music/food and whatever sparks my interest.
