Confidence

So I have to say that the one thing I have always struggled with is my confidence. Not necessarily with looks or socializing, but more with doubting myself and my own abilities. Even with Taekwondo, my confidence has gotten much better, however I find myself doubting myself in certain fights. I will go against someone and then think "I'm not faster," or "I really don't want to lose." ANd then of course I end up losing haha. I am not sure what holds people back in life the most. I think fear is what holds people back from doing what they want to do. But then again fear can be a good thing so that we can learn from experiences. I don't know. Aside from that I am entering my last semester in college. Thank GOD! But I have to say I will miss it. I loved being a student, and I love learning. Hopefully I will figure out exactly what I want. But in the mean time I look forward to waking up everyday. I think the key to happiness is being thankful for what is around you. We often times take for granted what we already have. I have a long way to go, but I know i'll get there.

Sharks and Fried Green Tomatoes

SO I discovered an awesome recipe for Fried Green Tomatoes. I personally love the movie, so I thought I would give them a try. I got two organic green tomatoes, Italian bread crumbs, eggs, and a pan with light olive oil. I sliced the tomato into semi-thin slices, and dipped each slice into the bread crumbs. Then I gave them a quick egg wash, then one more dip in the bread crumbs. After that I fried them in olive oil for a few minutes on each side. SOOOOOO good. Also I have been watching re-runs of shark week over and over, and I have to say I think people should stop messing with sharks. The ocean is THEIR territory. We are in THEIR home, so if people get attacked its their own fault, at least thats my opinion. Also the migration pattern of some sharks are starting to concern me. I see a lot of whites are now coming in closer to shore, and scientist poke and probe them for study. I think we should study sharks since, apparently, they are immune to cancers. I don't know just felt like talking. LOL

Been a while...

Well I haven't posted in a while. But I will say this. It has been both a very good and very bad year so far. I have restarted my weight loss journey as well as my academic journey. This December I will be graduating, and hope to have lost 40 pounds by that time. I think it is doable, but who knows. I am discovering more and more about myself each day. Very concerned about some things...My mind has been racing about living and dying, and things that I shouldn't be worrying about in my mid-twenties. I often find myself feeling sorry for things I haven't done or have done. But I think the worst part is everytime I go through something, and find myself happy again I look for things to worry about. I don't understand lol. Anyway, I will be updating this daily again. Night night.
