I've been watching what I eat (not really dieting--just being more conscious of what I'm putting into my body) and exercising more regularly. I don't weigh myself at home. I don't think it is healthy to obsess about weight. On Monday I went to the doctor though, and doctors always make you step on that scale. So I found out Monday that I'm down 8 pounds in 6 weeks. Not too shabby, eh?
I also had two great interviews this week. I hope I get one of the positions I interviewed for, but I can honestly say even if I don't both interviews were worthwhile experiences. I was blessed to meet some wonderful and intelligent people through those interviews, and no matter what happens I am certainly grateful for that.
I've managed to plot my graduate thesis (finally), and I've started researching the first chapter (not the introduction). I think I should be able to write 50 pages over the summer. I'm happy with that plan. I'm also pretty content with my thesis topic. I feel that I will be able to successfully complete and defend this monster. There is something gratifying about that.
I've also figured out (kind of) where I want to be in five years, and best of all I think I know how to get myself there. I feel like things are finally falling into place. Thinking positively might just be doing the trick after all!
P.S: The photo at the top is a picture of plumeria. My husband and I were fortunate enough to honeymoon in Waikiki and plumeria blossoms were everywhere. The air was heavily scented with their fragrant blooms. These flowers make me happy so I thought they might just make some of you happy too.
