Turn Around

Guess who didn't work out today...LOL. I will stretch in a bit though, I will before I start painting and I reaaaally want to start painting tonight.

Found this dope website with free courses for R programming, definitely want to start that within the next couple of weeks. Also saw it has Python classes - will do those after R for sure.

Going to Barnes and Noble tomorrow for a GRE book, gotta find out the difference between Princeton Review and Kaplan (don't get the Barron's).

Definitely gotta work on my sewing project tomorrow - I totally forgot about it but I can so do it while watching TV.

I feel like I am putting a lot on my plate but it's all literally for over the rest of the year. I'm stoked to be starting this new chapter of my life. It'll truly be a revival of myself - the self I want to be and lost some years ago.

This Needs an App Revival

Sidebar to life - seriously Google? You support a massive community on Blogger/Blogspot (still can't believe you have blogger.com but xyz.blogspot.com ?? like hello figure it out) and fucked the app for iOS? Is this a ploy to move everyone over to Android? Fuck that.

Speaking of revivals, it's almost like I never learn. I make the same mistakes over and over and over again and I'm sick and embarrassed at this point I'm too old. I'm too old for it.

It really makes you wonder if people ever change. He was right, he tells me time and time again we don't inherently change. I find some sort of fucked up, twisted comfort in that because at least we know what to expect.

I think everything with us is looking up, coming home was definitely a good move to clear my head and get back on a more me-focused schedule. 

Tomorrow I want to finish my take-home exam (goodbye finals), start painting and work out. That's an easy enough schedule to follow. Get some progress done on my transparency sewing project.

Day after I should take a trip to Barnes and Noble (sidebar - one on Central Ave is the closest and best parking) for a GRE book and more, maybe something to spark the intellect.

I finally remembered why I even logged onto Blogger, was going to make a holy grail post- coming up sharp - but it's also to revive the spark within and compensate for the depressing posts prior to this.

Revival of my life - I am a Renaissance woman in constant rebirth of all things.

Time is shedding another skin and I am transcending to thus another stretch of the path, it's time to take it back into my control. Be positive. Vibe with the ebb and flow of the universe. Clear the conscience.
