just doing some potting.

i can't decide if this one is happy or sad.  i love it either way. 

_________________________________________

it's a long weekend.  it feels like a mini-vacation.  even though i'm staying home.  and packing.  and studying.  it just has a nice feeling, i guess.

i finally repotted a bunch of my plants.  i have been meaning to repot my jade since last summer.  i even had the pot that it was going to go into.  

i also took my orchids out of their pots, and cut off the old roots, and took out the moss of one (apparently it suffocates orchids...), and put them back in their pots.  and after, i watched some youtubes on how to repot orchids.  turns out, i will be re-repotting my orchids.  and buying special orchid soil.  which is not soil at all, but wood and charcoal, mostly.  they apparently like to have a lot of space to "breathe."  no wonder they haven't flowered in years!

oni likes to do potting too.  but she doesn't save plants.  she kills them.

here is how oni does potting:

new goal!

____________________________________

yesterday i started my 60 days of yoga goal.  since i've started doing bikram, my goal has been to do the "60 day challenge".  but there were breaks where i left and people came to visit.  there were class schedules that seemed to change every week.  there was a certain lack of motivation all around.

and i guess some of that is still going on.  but i decided that i'm going to do it anyways.

and now i'm super excited about it!  even though today was super duper hard and i am very sore (i know.  who gets sore from yoga?)

the tricky part is to work things out so that i can keep running.  which means 2-a-days.  which will be hard.  but my running muscles are just coming in, which is pretty good motivation.

2 down, 58 to go!!


also, for the record, i've lost 2 pounds since a billion years ago when i decided to start getting into super shape again!  yay!

plans

i'm about to get all my feathers in a row.  or something.

i am studying for my final!  which means that my third semester is almost over.  and that my LAST semester is about to start.  and more importantly, that i'm about to have a week and a half break.
and i have so many plans.

plan number 1.  fly to wyoming as soon as tuesday exam (not for a grade, just to find out whether i could pass the nclex yet) is over 

plan number 2.  spend first day home with my favorite mama. 

plan number 3.  spend second day home with my favorite boyfriend. 

plan number 4.  work out every day.  one workout plus one run.  every day.

plan number 5.  cook dinner if my mom and dad buy the food.  (see how sneaky i am?) 

plan number 6.  finish resume vamping.  (it's possible i made that word up.  i'm not quite sure what it even means.  but it sounds nice, doesn't it?) 

plan number 7.  apply for a job every day.  (only 4 months left, kids!) 

plan number 8.  do not get a tan, as is snowing still in lovely wyoming.  poo. 

plan number 9.  re start "photo a day" project 

plan number 10.  do some serious blog catching up.  (i'm still on target for my 100 posts in a year, but april sucked a bit...exams are hard.  and time consuming.  and i broke my computer.  or oni did.  still not sure on that one.  hopefully my parts will come so computer can get fixed as soon as i come back from break.)

see you on the flip side! (ok, i don't really know what that means, either...)

news.

good and bad news:

good news:  i just have to replace the keyboard and track pad.

bad news:  i just have to replace the keyboard and track pad.


and i am never drinking around my computer again.
unless i have a lid.
or maybe if it's spill proof.
but probably until i forget how much money i had to spend on fixing 2 tiny parts.

29.

oni's demanding face.  if she stares long enough at what she wants to move, it will move.
