Though I don’t practice Christianity, I’m planning on observing lent. I’m going to give up pasta and pizza. More personally, I will also try my best to give up negative thinking.
Call it self-improvement or whatever you want-this is a challenge I am ready to accept. I guess I’m doing this all more out of testing my self-control more than anything else.

Restarting me@115
This will happen.
What it was like to live back in those days, I will never know. But I will always wonder…
Word: 15
It is going to be tough, but it will be worth it.
Word: 14
Learn to balance. Keep a calm mind. Breathe.
If I could, if only I could-I would trade all of my golden tokens of happiness for your gray buckets of sorrow. I would.
I will. Just tell me how.
Word: 13
Don’t hold expectations from anyone but yourself.

EAST ATLANTA: The Invitation →
eastatlanta:
It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.
It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.
…
Throughout the day, I catch myself holding my breath. When I try to take a deep breath, I feel like my breathing is even more shallow-as if I could get more air in me but something is stopping that from happening. What is this feeling?

Let's face the facts...
It wasn’t going to happen. So who were you trying to protect? Was it your fragile heart that believes in storybook romances? How about your faith in Bollywood stories? What was it after everything. What was it.
You’ve fallen into this trap before. You tell yourself that you know you are being unrealistic-it’s all a joke. But was it ever really just a joke? Didn’t your...
Let's be realistic.
It’s time for some change.
Yes, they might be book-smart. But are they street-smart? Can they hold a conversation with someone for more than five minutes that is not about academics?
Just remember that you cannot compare yourself to other people. It’s good to know where people stand in life now so you have something to work towards, should you choose to want that for yourself as well. But remember that you have so...
Just for them.
Let’s just say that things could be better and my mission for this year is to make sure that I see some results. It’s not going to be easy. I will have to constantly remind myself what it is that I am fighting for and why I deserve it. If I ever find myself backing away from what my priorities then action will need to be taken. And action will be taken.
Priorities: 1. Grades 2....
Maybe you don’t remember me. That’s alright. But I remember you. And all the things you said. And all the things we did. And what happened. I remember it all. And maybe it’s because I remember things like the past that prevent me from moving on in my future. I’m tired of it. I want to move on.
But I want to see you again. I want to actually talk with you and get to know...
February Health Goals
I think rather than making goals for the entire year (which isn’t a problem either), one should make monthly goals and add on a new goal each month and stick to it through the year.
I didn’t have a January goal so I’ll have 3 February goals.
1) Get to 138lbs by 2/29.
2) Stay focused and healthy.
3) Finish Better.

I can’t explain what I mean. And even if I could, I’m not sure I’d feel like it.
