I know I said that the goals I had yesterday I would do for today, but I remembered that I had Miracle Worker rehearsal and wouldn't have time to bike. So I adjusted them a wee bit.

Today's Goals:
~ Wake up at 6:20 am and stretch for 11 minutes
~ Walk 5 laps around the school
~ Do Dance Aerobic video

Tomorrow's Goals:
~ Wake up at 6:10 am and stretch for 12 minutes
~ Walk 5 laps around the school
~ Do dance aerobic video

Well, today was full of drama! I go to lunch and Daniel asks if I know someone named David Denson....I do. He's in The Miracle Worker. So I ask what's up with him...He's been arrested! A girl turned him in for tring to sell her drugs, they searched him at school and he had a box opener and was arrested for weapon possession. It was a miracle he didn't have drugs on him though, because he actually is a drug dealer. So he probably will have to be recasted....I just really hope Ms. Adams doesn't replace him with Jesse, I'm going to kill her if she ever speaks again, I swear! Not really, but gah, she annoys me. Not much else, except I really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really want to go to Athens...again....ugh!!!!! Bye everbody, I love you!

~Take 5 laps around the school at the begining of the day
~Bike for 45 minutes after dinner (new MP3 player that I got for Christmas should really help with that!)

Week Goals
~Wake up 10 Minutes earlier every day
~Lose 2 pounds
~Streach one minute longer every day


Today was a great day. I was in a really great mood for no real reason in particular....So weird. Fairly boring day, but I did learn what blood type I was! I'm O Positive! I gave blood like a month and a half ago and I ended up passing out when I did, but that was after I had given blood. I gave blood and stood up then I turned around kind of suddenly and I passed out. It was fairly funny. Also, I feel like total crap after I give blood, physically not emotionally. The emotional part I felt amazing. Oh, I forgot to mention that I am the official Stage Manager for The Miracle Worker. It's pretty cool. I'm liking it so far. Anyways, I'm completely out of things to talk about. Take care everyone!

I'm back and I'm here to stay. I can't explain why I just stopped dieting, but I did. I've got to get bck in the game, because I know I can do it. It's hard and I'm willing to take on this challenge. It's going to take time and effort and I have to dedicate everything I have into this.

So a catch up. Yesterday I auditioned for "The Miracle Worker" and got a call back for Monday! Exciting! I got my report card back from last semester, my grades are:
Human Anatomy: 88
AP Brit. Lit: 93
Money Management: 93
Adv. Theatre: 94

It's a very exciting thing. Now this semester I have AP Calculus, Statistics, AP Economics, and Adv. Theatre. It's going to be really cool. I'm also planning on directing a 10 minute play for our class, which should be very exciting. That's basically it though. Good bye all, and I will be back tomorrow.

I am so sick of being ignored. If it is obvious that I don't want you to do something, why do you push me? I mean Christ! Is it so hard a concept to think that there's a reason why I don't want you to do something? Has it ever occured to you what I had to go through to get things the way I like them and then you go and take it from me? I'm sick of it. I'm on the brink of tears and I just wish everyone would back off for five damn minutes. It seems like one thing after another and it won't stop coming. I worked so hard on burning that stupid CD last night and this morning Helen sees it and grabs it from me then guilt trips me into letting her keeping it for the month. Like her grandmother will let her listen to Rent on the car ride up? I told her I would burn her a copy if she would give it back but she didn't understand the concept! She won't let me get an word in edge wise. I can't just simply burn another copy! I burned it onto a CD so I could delete it from this computer and just be able to listen to it whenever. I haven't even gotten to listen to it yet! Fuck!!! I'm sick of being pushed over and ignored. I wish someone would take the fucking hint and give me a God damn break! I'm working so hard on everything and all I get is shit from other people. I plan a field trip to Atlanta for my friends and I get people dropping out to do other things and waiting until the last minute to give me my money and acting like everything is no deal, but if one thing goes wrong tomorrow it's all my fault and I'll be blamed for it. I've worked beyond hard thinking of ways to make things better. And I'm just sick of everything. I'm sick of everyone telling me how well Mary did during Guys and Dolls and no one mentioning me. I'm sick of being pushed over. I'm sick of being ignored. I'm sick of being treated like a child. I'm sick of people not taking my feelings into consideration when they do something. I could have said "no" to Helen, but then I just would have been bitched at because she does everything and a half for me and I do diddly squat. I mean, she wouldn't say that to me, but just the thought of her thinking it I can't stand. It just pisses me off. I can't stand things anymore. I have 5 papers I need to do, one that decides whether or not I graduate from high school and if I get one little thing to make me happy people want to take it away from me. She can't listen to it tonight anyways, or tomorrow. AHHHHHHH! I'm sorry if I sound like a child but I feel like one. Nothing I do or say is taken into consideration. I'm just stupid Bethany. I'm gaining weight. I don't have time to excercize anymore and this is the five minutes I've dedicated to just bitching! I'm ready for this week to be over so that I can just enjoy "Chicago" and be able to relax/work on my research paper for Grandma Tiede. I'm going to work on all of papers and won't stop until I have 4 out of 5 done. Peace be with you.

I have pictures of pretty flowers that I arranged!!!

My First Arrangement My Second Arrangement My Last/Favorite Arrangement! My Whole Church!
This is the pulpet, I didn't do these flowers but they're just so pretty!

Tomorrow we are doing All Saints Day at church and we have to make our church really pretty and what better way to do it than with flowers?! Okay, well the church is already pretty, but now it even looks more pretty! Everyone told us that our flowers were gorgeous which is awesome. Especially since all the ladies and gentlemen in the Sr. Flower Guild are professional flower arrangers and we're just in high school/middle school. That's all for right now, but I'll hopefully get on again later! I just had to share the prettiness!

Ouch! I hurt my coccyx!!! I fell on it and now it hurts!!! I was trying to sit in a chair but I wasn't looking and I missed.....so sad.

Anyways, things are going great on this end of the spectrum, although I'm having trouble remembering I'm on a diet. The hardest part is that currently my dad is waking up early enough to cook breakfast during the week which is so nice, but I really love starting off my dad with low calories so that the rest of the day I don't feel as restricted. I hate to tell him that I don't want him to make me something in the morning, because I'm really greatful, but I want to have something little. I know you're supposed to have a big breakfast or whatever but I just don't work that way. Oh well, I'm ranting about nothing really important. It's not a huge deal and it doesn't bother me too terribly much, but...it's just one of those things.

So how is everyone?! I feel like I miss so much when I don't get on here regularly. I thought as soon as Guys and Dolls was over I would have time but now I have to do all of the stuff that I couldn't do in October and all of that is eating up my time! Recently I volunteered to help the local middle school do a play. They're doing the Legend of Sleepy Hollow and yesterday I went to a rehearsal...Wow. I don't think I've ever seen actors suck that bad. They were all really spastic too. I liked to think that I wasn't that way when I was in middle school, but I know I was. Here's the kicker though. Their performance is on Saturday and not a single person knows their lines. It was amazingly painful to watch. Then, after they had finally gotten through the whole play, they asked if I wanted to teach them to bow. I'm like "I think y'all may want to run through that again." It was so bad.

OOoooo!!! I got a great complement yesterday. I was hanging out with a guy that I hadn't seen in a while and he told me that he really noticed my weight loss and thought I looked great! It made me feel really special. I also got a marriage proposal the other day from this guy, back when we were still doing Guys and Dolls. He saw my in my red Bushel and a Peck dress and told me he loved me and wanted to marry me. Due to the fact that I did not know who he was it was creepy, but cool nonetheless.

I hope you guys are awesome!!! Love you all!!!!!

Okay, so I have a new picture of just my front and side view to document weight loss. I look like total crap in the picture, but if you look at my pictures ten pounds ago, it's amazing!

Ten Pounds Ago:


Now:

Like I said, I look like total crap because i had just worked out, but the difference is awesome! Haha, I look so pale in this picture compared to the other one though!
