On an Unrelated Note...

So, I know this has absolutely nothing to do with my weight loss, but I'm actually considering doing these kind of posts along with my journals. I have recently fallen in love with this awesome band called Fun. One of their most popular songs is called "We Are Young." After hearing that song, I was intrigued. So I decided to listen to some more of their music on Spotify. I am now in love with this group. Their lyrics are fantastic, and their vocal stylings are phenomenal. So I'm just going to post some lyrics to this song that personally has a lot of meaning for me. It's called Carry On.

Carry On
Carry on
Well I woke up to the sound of silence
The cars were cutting like knives in a fist fight
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Your head in the curtains
And heart like the Fourth of July

You swore and said
We are not
We are not shining stars
This I know
Cause I never said we were

Though I've never been through hell like that
I've closed enough windows 
To know you can never look back

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Or your feet upon the ground
Carry on 

Carry on, carry on

So I met up with some friends
At the edge of the night
At a bar off 75
And we talked and tolked
About how our parents will die
All our neighbours and wives

But I like to think
I can cheat it all
To make up for the times I've been cheated on
And it's nice to know
When I was left for dead
I was found and now I don't roam these streets
I am not the ghost you want of me

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on 
May your past be the sound
Or your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Woah
My head is on fire
But my legs are fine
Cause after all they are mine
Lay your clothes down on the floor
Close the door
Hold the phone
Show me how
No one's ever gonna stop us now

Cause we are
We are like shining stars
We are invincible
We are who we are
On our darkest day
When we're miles away
So we'll come
We will find our way home

If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone
Carry on
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Carry on, carry on

This next song is also absolutely phenomenal. It's called Why Am I The One?

Why Am I The One
I got enough on my mind
What when she pulls me by the hand
She hasn't much to hold onto

She's keeping count on her hand
One, Two, Three days
That I been sleeping on my side

I finished kissing my death
So now I head back up the steps
Thinking about where I've been
I mean the sun was never like this
I wanna feel with the season
I guess it makes sense
Cause my life becomes as vapid as a night out in Los Angeles
And I just want to stay in bed

And hold you like I used to 
You know that I am home
So darling if you love me
Would you let me know...?

Or go on, go on, go on
If you were thinking that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always backing up my stuff

For once, for once, for once
I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong
Why am I the one always packing up my stuff

She got enough on her mind
That she feel no sorry
I let my fate fill the air
So now she's rolling down the window
Never been one to hold on
But I need a last breath
So I ask if she remembers when
She used to come and visit me 
We were fools to think that nothing could go wrong

Go on, go on, go on
If you were thinking that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always packing up my stuff

For once, for once, for once
I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong
Why am I the one always packing all my stuff
I think I kinda like it but I might have had too much

I'll move back down
To this western town
When they find me out
Make no mistake about it

I'll move back down to this western town
When they find me out make no mistake about it

I'll move back down to this western town...
(Go on, go on, go on, if you were thinking that the worst is yet to come)
Why am I the one always packing up my stuff

Go on, go on, go on, if you were thinking that the worst is yet to come
Why am I the one always packing up my stuff

For once, for once, for once, I get the feeling that I'm right where I belong
Why am I the one always packing up my stuff

I think I kinda like it but I might have had too much
I'll move back down...

And here is the song that I currently have stuck in my head...it's called Some Nights

Some Nights
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck
Some nights I call it a draw
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off

But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore

This is it, boys, this is war 
What are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked
But here they come again to jack my style

And that's alright
I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh who am I? Oh, who am I?

Some nights I wish that this all would end
Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights, I'm scared you'll forget me again
Some nights I always win

But I still wake up
I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I still don't know what I stand for
What do I stand for? 
What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know

So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?

No. 
When I see stars that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this one
So come on
Oh come on
Oh come on


That is it guys, that is all
Five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This is not one for the folks back home;
I'm sorry to leave, mom
I had to go
Who the f*** wants to die alone
All dried up in the desert sun?


My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called "love"
But when I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from
Some terrible nights

The other nights, you wouldn't believe the dream
I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance...

Food & Exercise Journal - Day Eighteen: 348 Days Left

Oh my goodness. I am SO SO sorry about my hiatus from this for the past week. Last week was preverbal hell for me. Due to stress, I had a major upsurge in anxiety attacks, causing me to lose a lot of sleep. (For those of you who don't know, I do suffer from General Anxiety Disorder.) So, needless to say, I was not the most chipper person in the world last week. So, I've decided to start with a clean slate and just take all of those days off. So, here I am starting afresh. Here's my journals from yesterday:

Food Journal


Breakfast
Chocolate Milk
1 Tablespoon Creamy Peanut Butter


Lunch
Chilled Shrimp Cocktail
Chicken Breast Strips w/ Honey Mustard Sauce
House Salad w/ Ranch Dressing on the Side
2 Cheddar Bay Biscuts


Dinner
Nada


Snack
Large Chocolate Mix w/ Oreos


Exercise Journal


Nada


Daily Water Count


5 bottles x 20 fl.oz./bottle = 100 fl.oz.


Sleep Journal


11:30 PM - 7:15 AM = 7 hours 45 minutes


All right, my lovelies. That's it for today. I will post my journals for today tomorrow. I've got a busy busy busy night ahead of me, that's for sure.


On an unrelated topic, all of you OC students who are reading my blog (and I know you all exist considering a majority of you have talked to me personally about this) should sign up for OC's Got Talent! It will take place on Monday, April 23. Here's the link to sign up!




Okay and that's all there is! Talk to you all later! Love you!

Love,

Food & Exercise Journal - Day Seventeen: 349 Days Left

Okay, so I would like to open this post by saying congratulations to all of the amazing new officers of Iota for next year! You all will do and be amazing and I love you girls!
Anywho, I am just now getting home from spending time with some of my most favourite people in the world. I absolutely adore my theatre friends. Some of the conversations we have, I honestly believe that there should be a reality tv show about us when we hang out together. We'd get better ratings than Jersey Shore or The Real Housewives of New York, or whatever other "reality" tv shows are out there. Just saying.
So, I really need to get ready for bed, so I'm just going to hop to it and post my journals and then call it a night!

Food & Exercise Journal - Day Sixteen: 350 Days Left

And with this entry, I am finally caught up. I was going to post this last night, but seeing as my family is here visiting for the week, and we went out to dinner last night, I didn't have time. By the time I finally fell asleep, I was exhausted. Then, I woke up at 4:30 AM because my knee was hurting me so badly. And seeing the weather today (Tuesday) I now know why. I apologize, by the way, for my past few posts being just the journals. I just wanted to get them up and done so I could catch up. And even now, I'm so sleepy because of the rainy weather. All I want to do is just curl up in a nice, warm place and take a wonderfully long nap. Anywho, here are my journals for yesterday (Monday).

Food Journal

Breakfast
Nada

Lunch
Steamed Rice
Orange Chicken
Large Diet Pepsi

Dinner
Huevos Rancheros 
Chips and Queso

Exercise Journal

Oh, yes! I forgot I was going to talk about the latest episode of Once Upon a Time. How amazing was that ending?? I did NOT see that coming! I will not give away the ending, for the sake of any readers I may have that have yet to see the latest episode. Just be ready for a complete and total surprise at the end of the episode. And I shall say no more than that. I WILL post my journals for today TODAY. I promise!

Love,
