time flies!

i'm 30.5 now! what?! i can't believe it. i'm not unhappy, really, just shocked. i'm almost done with school- 2 more classes to go!!! then i get to choose when to take the final (oct 10-dec 3). i'm thrilled! i have advanced end-of-sbb-itis and i have barely studied at all for the past 2 weeks. oops! tomorrow it is.

in celebration of my 3 extra days off per month, i've decided to set some goals. i know, i know, i am always in need of goals.

1. try one new fruit or veggie or other healthy food per week. recently i've had arugula, wheatberries, goat cheese, honey roasted soybeans, and tofu (new for me to prepare at least!).

2. friday (or saturday if i'm too tired) begins the "sarah exercises for 31 consecutive days" challenge. i drive past a great park on the way home from work. my gym is less than 10 minutes away. i have as many as 20 exercise dvds. c'mon! do it!

3. it also begins the "sarah does NOT consume soda for 31 consecutive days" challenge. if i find some all natural juice sweetened stuff, fine. but kick it with the code red & diet pepsi already. my body does not need high fructose corn syrup or bizarre chemistry experiment fake sugars does it? i will not forgo mochas, though. tea or coffee is ok at 1-2 cups/day i say! all in all, i probably average no more than 1-2 sugary soda per week but since it has no nutritional value at all, why bother?

it's good to have goals. now off to bed to continue my lovely "sarah gets plenty of sleep" exercise!
