And so it begins....

I have begun my goal of losing my weight this year. I read the Biggest Loser book, thanks to Amy, and am in the beginning stages of their diet. It is so easy! The worst part is writing everything down, but that's minor. No biggy at all! I kicked it off with a workout with Brenda, and I can't wait to see what my results for week 1 are! I'm already feeling great!

Sunday was my last "audition" for my winter guard. Let's just say I have 16 children between 2nd and 5th grade! YIKES! It's going to be a great year! I can't wait to make our debut, I have a great group of kids! :)

I added another job to my existing 4 (Springfield Guard, Phoenix Jr's, Washington Local Schools, and Sylvania City Schools). I was asked to start working at my gym that I work out in. So I am working there when I can in their nursery. I put in 2 days last week while I was on break from school, and now I have at least 1 day this week. :) Busy busy busy busy....

Well, the Biggest Loser meatloaf is almost done cooking. I guess I should eat dinner!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

First of all, let me start by wishing everyone a Happy New Year! :) It's 2011, let's make it a good year!

This year, I have a lot of new and exciting experiences coming my way, and I can't wait! I am FINALLY going on my trip for my 21st birthday, and yes, I am going to be 24 when we actually leave for Europe. I finally get to see the Eiffel Tower in person, and HOPEFULLY I will get to see my friend from Germany. That would be amazing! I also am going to step out at a competition as a director of my own guard for the first time! :) This is a huge accomplishment for me, and I can't wait for the first show!

I also have set a lot of goals for myself. Not necessarily "New Years Resolutions", but personal goals to last the rest of my life. They are as follows:

1. Be more positive towards EVERY aspect of my life.
2. Get a job at a public school district and have my own classroom!
3. Lose my weight once and for all (I already have borrowed the Biggest Loser guide from Amy and Nate... it's beginning!)
4. Audition for a world guard.
5. Be financially stable for once in my life.
6. Get a long term subbing position for the Spring.

Here we go... saying goodbye to 2010 and hello to 2011!
