july

what the. . . ?! it's july! summer is flying by! i am frightened and excited by it. i realized that i love learning and i am ready to be back in school. i know i will be saying the same thing come october, but right now i am really excited to be back in school. however, i want to make the most of the rest of my summer and live it up! i also want to take this time to improve myself and become the best me that i can be! here is a quick recap of my june goals and how i did.

Spiritual
Go to the temple at least 1x: i went exactly once, but i am glad i got to go at all! what with being insanely busy with CNA classes and then having a bit of a hard time with dating, i needed to get the peace that the temple brings.
Make morning prayers a habit: this will be a continuing goal, but i found as i studied scriptures in the morning i remembered better to say prayers. i want to make my prayers more natural and more personal though still.
Finish the May Ensign: i am proud to say i finished it on Saturday the 30th! I have loved reading the Conference addresses and i am so grateful for the words of our Apostles and Prophets.

Physical
Start marathon training: fail. but i did run a little more in the last two weeks of the month and feeling better about things. 
Workout at least 30 min/day: i did really good at this! even when i was in CNA class and working i made sure i worked out every night. i think i've found some good circuits. i just need heavier weights now.
No ice cream: guysss, i love ice cream so this was hard, but i did it! there was only once that i had ice cream because my friend chantelle bought me an ice cream cone and you can't say no to gifts right?

Educational/Financial
Pass State CNA test: well i haven't taken it quite yet, but i am going to take it asap. as you may know i did get a CNA job so i am super excited for that!
Find a CNA job: check (see above).
Save at least $300: apparently i fail at saving money.... boo. i didn't save anything! ok well i did get a paycheck yesterday and i hope to save $100 from it.

Social
Go to all church events possible: i think i did this. i mean i couldn't go to very many. . . but i tried. i even started going to ward choir!
Do my visiting teaching: i am proud to say that i did this within the first two weeks of the month. booyah!


july is going to be an interesting month- getting a new job and everything. i'm not sure how it is going to fit in with everything else in my life. but i know that i can juggle everything to make room for the most important stuff. here are my goals for this month!

  2. You inspire me. I'm now going to have to budget, eat healthier, exercise more, and pray harder, so I don't get left in the dust. =) thanks for being my awesome roommate and leaving me treats and all the "little services"--you are wonderful! Love you!
