Week in Review

This is kind of a jumbled together throw it all in post, but I thought since I have some new reader and people actually commenting! YAYS!! HIiiiiii!!! *waves* I had better start posting a little more often!

So this week has went by slowly for some reason. I am proud to say that after STAR moved to Elliot I have successfully led the group of people to MTW every day this week WITHOUT getting lost. Or taking them to the basement of Elliot. I will however admit that on Monday I did have a brief moment of confusion on which sidewalk to take and started praying furiously for a sign, I looked up and voila University's steeple!! Thank you Purdue for putting a steeple on that building so I know which direction to head. I owe you.

Sadly I have not mastered the art of walking backwards while talking and leading my group. I have three more days to get that down before STAR ends. I am determined DETERMINED to do it. But maybe not tomorrow. We have a huge group and if i fall or trip, i really dont' want to do it in front of 100 people..

I have been faithfully exercising this week. I am back on the wagon!! Tonight I cardio biked 30 miles, which took a little over an hour, and i burned 1301 calories! WOOT! GO ME!! Sadly about 1/3 of those calories were from the Starbucks that Mary and I got this afternoon.

We took a walk to the union for a Starbucks run and the oh so helpful cashier dude (i say this sarcastically) could not tell me the difference between a mocha frauppucino and a blended creme double chocolatey chip frauppucino but he did have the helpful tip of "eat it slowly" rubs belly "it has 1300 calories in it!!" might i mention he gave me a rather POINTED look when he said that. I about slapped him. Thankfully for my sake I didn't like the drink and drank 1/3 of it. If that. Last time I'm adventerous. Seriously that is why I am so routine and always get the same thing when I go places. Anytime I try something different i don't like it!

I know. Tales of my Starbucks experience are pretty darned thrilling. But if you're here reading my blog you're probably not looking for anything that would classify for a pulitzer prize. and if you are. well.. sorry.

And now my dear readers I think I am going to head to bed early. I don't feel that great, haven't all day and the crappy fraup didnt help. Another big day of STAR is upon us tomorrow and then, blessedly, the weekend. Sleep. I am coming. I love you Sleep!!

What a disgrace to Starbucks, the guy couldn't tell you the difference between a mocha and a was was previously known as "java chip." If I remember correctly, one has expresso and one does not-BIG Difference! For shame!

I love Jesus & Sephora!!

 I am not a morning person. There are very few things I will get up early for. Friday morning I got up while it was still dark outside. My alarm went off at 6:45 am and let me tell you I have not seen that time for a very very long while! However, something really exciting was happening that morning! Sephora came to Tippecanoe Mall! THATS RIGHT FOLKS SEPHORA!!!!!!!! I love me some Sephora! Yes, it is expensive, but the quality is amazing, and in reality I spend less on Sephora products than trying to find something that works with my wacky skin at the drug store. I have been looking forward to this for weeks. I set my alarm early and ran out the door in a hurry! I got to the mall at 8:02 am. Sephora was opening at 10. I was not the first person there! I was about the 12'th person there and at first we were all smushed into this doorway which was really not comfortable at all. Thankfully the kind people at JcPenney let us inside the store so we could line up outside of Sephor...

Who needs a Knuckle anyway?!

 If you are squeamish and do not like pictures of fingers stitched up, now would be the time to close this post and come back another day!  I put this picture of my struggling get up for my shower first so that no one has to see the stitches if they don't want to. Call me kind :) Also, this get up did not work at keeping my finger dry.  So last night i was opening a box of books, and accidentally opened my knuckle as well. It's funny, it didn't really hurt at the moment. I felt it of course, but it wasn't horrible pain. Blood started gushing and I ran for the bathroom to get some tp on it and bandaids. I do NOT do well with blood and seeing all of it made me a tad bit light headed. I managed to find some gauze and tape and after looking at my finger and noticing that i could see INSIDE my finger and the knuckle skin was WIDE open, I almost passed out. hahahaha.. it was GROSS! I dr'd up my finger and tried to decide if it would heal on it's o...
