Just lookin' out for Number One!

Okay so I’m pretty sure a lot of people are like this..
But I need something exciting, or something that I’m passionate about to get me through every day
To me, life is so boring when you don’t have something you’re passionate about
It doesn’t have to be something huge,
It could something small like, cooking your favorite meal, or a weekend trip.
Whatever.

A lot of the time, it’s dating someone.
I know it’s wrong, I am totally aware that you cannot depend your happiness on another person!
But it’s fun! And it’s exciting!
But! Unfortunately, it usually doesn’t last.
Unless you’re the lucky couple who ended up getting married and living happily ever after. You suck by the way.
Just kidding! Congrats and all that.
Anyway, these past few days have been a big reality check for me!
I’ve been real bummed out about some recent events
Like, always in the back of my mind, always a real downer.
Definitely not something to get me through the day as I mentioned before.
These recent events have not been solved, and I know that they won’t for a while.

So! What is a gal to do, right?
The answer is definitely NOT mope around like a whiny little bitch. (Yes, tough love is the answer)
And since I already know that problems probably will not get solved for a while, I will have to live with them and somehow be okay with that.
I’m sure we can all relate. Everyone has problems that they have to live with, some worse than others. Regardless, shit happens.

So, I got to thinking… what am I supposed to focus on to get me through the day?
What is something that I can look forward to, or be passionate about to make my life not a boring abyss of hell?
Oh right, numero uno of course!
I’m going to focus on me, myself and I!
Who has always been there for you? Right, you!
I am so stoked on this, and I don’t really give a flying fuck that I sound like the most cocky human in the world, because I deserve to be treated well by myself. And so do you :)

So if you don’t know me, I have lost some weight since high school and shiz.
So I’m like, alright. I did it before, I’m gonna get in awesome shape.
And I’m gonna eat really healthy and feel really good about myself.
Because let’s face it… eating junk food makes you feel like shit. It is absolutely amazing how good you can feel just by eating somewhat healthy.
So I started actually going to the gym.
It’s pretty much amazing. I’ve been pushing myself like I never have before.
Then after, I’m like “woah… did I really do that?”
It is like nothing else. To have a feeling of accomplishment that no one else on the planet has to do with! It’s MY success!

As far as diet goes, I am a loosey goosey.
I love fruits, veggies, nuts, and lean meats like chicken & fish.
Wanna know what else I love?
Pizza, ice cream, pasta, hamburgers, candy, well… really anything sweet.
So what is a gal to do?
Eat it.
I’m not saying stuff your effin face with junk.
I’m saying if you don’t have a treat or a slice of pizza every now and then, your gonna go mad and eat like a rabid dog.
To me, it makes it so much easier to eat a slice of pizza and say glory that was really good, but that made me feel tired and lazy.
So the next day I’m back on some crazy health kick.

This probably won’t apply to some, but I bought all sorts of new stuff too
I have this thing (I’ll probably blog about this later) where I’m a shop-o-fucking-holic.
But I have it a lot more under control than it use to be so don’t worry bout it.
But I got some new clothes, new makeup, and... airbrush sunless tan.*
I don't care what you say... it makes me a tan person!
*I actually have a whole different speech about tanning beds and how they literally damage your DNA.

So now you’re probably saying ‘wow Stace, conceited bout your appearance much?’
And the answer is yes.
Not the kind where I need to look ready for the prom all day erry day, because trust me, if you catch me at the grocery store or the home depot on a weeknight or a Saturday morning, you will probably wonder where I found the most unmatching outfit possible, and why my hair looks so dirty.
But as far as going to work, or going out for fun, I do like to look good!
When people feel good about themselves, I swear they have some flippin' glowing-aura-halo-thing around them that makes you want to be their friend!
And looking good makes me feel good about myself. Okay? Stop judging me now!

So that is my rant about my new “kick” that I’m on. I hope that if you don’t have something to look forward to, or be passionate about, that you find it :)

And as for my six-pack, it should be here in no time! I have like a one-pack right now. I have a 40.
