No internet where I am staying for a while! Ill be back in a weekish :)
Its a few days away but happy news years in advance!
Today is just a live on coffee and guacamole day....
Still so glad I barely ever drink caffeine so when I drink coffee it hits me like a load of bricks and actually works.
I do love iced coffee though.
Not too bad a day!
Had a hummus/turkey/tomato/lettuce sandwich on whole wheat bread.
Half an apple with peanut butter.
A few crackers with Boursin cheese.
Chicken and veggie stirfry and a tiny bit of rice.
Some pita chips.
An orange fizzy Eboost drink (I needed caffeine to study).
I walked around campus for a while.
I just studied for 6 straight hours (literally caffeine makes me work so good but I never...

Get my first tattoo that I have had planned for about 4 years now (gotta get dat...
Apologies for the semi-absence..
As we all know, its been a bit wacko with finals for everyone. I haven’t been hardcore counting my calories (though I haven’t been eating like a jackass either) and the past few days I have physically not had time to go to the gym.
That said, I am making sure I get to the gym today! :) I did go climbing yesterday but only did like 2 climbs because most of the wall has been taken down...
Today is a day to kick some ass.

Exciting thing of the day:
Found out that I am the same height as my rock climbing instructor but I have about a one and a half inch wingspan advantage over him. Which totally doesn’t sound like much but he is a climbing god and there is officially a move I can do that he can’t.
Suck onnnn that!
(Way too competitive for my own good)
Today I did my first successful dyno on a super...
The climb was intense! But I did it :) I had never jumped before and made it so I was proud :)
I love rock climbing. Its such a good way to get exercise in. And its making my arms, chest, and core so much stronger.
When you buy a pair of pants in a size smaller...
(I was already a size 6 in J. Crew but I was an 8 in American Eagle and nowwww I am a size 6 in American Eagle!)
P.S. Remember I am 5’11” so this was basically my goal. I am never gonna be a size 0 girl unless I am actually dead)

Consist only on pieces of candy that our housekeeper leaves out for us
Forget to eat because I am either sleeping/studying/crying and meal times at my school are super limited
Get pizza or chinese food because I am stressed out
Forget to go to the gym or workout in some way because it will make me feel so much better! (And exercise before an exam has been proven to give you a...
