my burning sun will someday rise

♪♫ Doin' Time - Sublime

The day after writing my last blog, I spent my time flipping through the channels and eating junk food. I ended up watching a two hour special of extreme makeover. It was about a woman who was over 300 lbs and got down to around 160 lbs in a year. How? Exercising and eating healthy. I was really inspired. I'm 50 lbs overweight and its the heaviest I've ever been. I've decided to make a lifestyle change and so far its going good. I've been taking it slow. I still have junk food in my diet, but I'm slowly eating less and less. Eventually I will only have one treat a week. I've also cut down on portions of food. As far as exercise goes, I've been walking, biking and using weights. I actually feel like I lost 5 lbs in the past few days. :)

Yesterday was a much needed shopping day. Usually when I go into a store and try clothes on, I feel fat and gross. But knowing that I'm gonna lose weight has made me feel more confident and happy. So I ended up loving everything I tried on. And lucky for me, there were a bunch of sales. The most expensive thing I bought was $15 and the cheapest was $3! So I got six shirts, a skirt, a pair of tights and pajama pants. I'm very happy! ^_^

All the new clothes I got!

Today, I've spent most of my time downloading movies and seasons of shows. I also decided to watch Eraserhead on Friday. Its a movie that is considered one of the most disturbing films ever made. As a horror movie fanatic, I've always been scared to watch it. But I'm finally gonna do it. I'm not sure what to expect. Wish me luck! Heres a trailer...


I've saved the best for last: I got my hair done today! No more of that yucky dark brown/faded red/blonde roots. My hair was a disaster of colors. But I've gone back to my natural hair color with blonde highlights. I'm very happy with it! And I'm not gonna dye my hair anymore. Its too much of a hassle.

My hair before I got it done. Not the best picture, but you can somewhat see the different colors.

In the process of getting my hair done.

The finished look! I love it!

Thats all until next time! :3

  1. I've been trying to lose weight too, but I have such a hard time not drinking pop. And eating chips. I'm horrible for that. But I do eat pretty healthy, I love my veggies!

    I love your hair as well! I've given up on dying my hair. It's just a pain and kills it pretty much.
