8 Days... that's all that's left of my "mini" summer vacay. Part of me is happy... as having nothing to do (literally nothing) is both relaxing and nerve-wracking for someone like me. Part of me is nervous too... I am now in the second year of my Master's program and the clock is ticking down towards student teaching, graduation, and actually getting a job. Obviously, I'm excited by all this.... but I'm nervous about the transition from teaching in theory, to teaching in practice. I'm hoping that it will be everything I have envisioned.... I guess only time will tell.
As a consolation, BF and I are planning some excursions this fall. Fall is, after all, my most favorite season. :-) In October, we are flying to New Jersey/ NYC to see BF's parents and visit for a few days. I'm very much looking forward to this as I've not been out there since BF and I first got together (which, if memory serves was in '06 or '07). I've also never had the pleasure of seeing New York in the Autumn... which, I've heard, is spectacularly beautiful.
For Labor Day, I (and perhaps BF) will be making the journey to Minnesota to see my sister and her husband. We will also be joined by our parents and various newly-engaged and newly-married cousins... which, I'm sure, won't be awkward or pressure-inducing at all for BF and myself. (Although, honestly, wouldn't mind a *little* pressure on BF on that front!!)
Diet-wise... I've been eating REALLY badly. So badly, in fact, that when I stepped on the scale this morning I honestly expected nuclear-level fallout. To my intense surprise... still holding steady at 135. It is incredible. I feel like a braggart saying all this.... but I swear, it's the truth and nothing but the truth. So, another testament to the efficacy of the Dukan method I guess. :)
Happy Monday everyone!
