You rock for this thread and the other. I had to really take a good hard look at myself.

I was asking myself today what ONE thing was the most important to me about the time I invest on the Org and this was part of my answer in a way

some people here help me to step outside my box and look at myself and life through different eyes - I love that

Brownsugar said:

That's a great program.
You meet 1 day a week, and have an assignmet due each week. You have class one night a week as well.
The classes last 5 weeks, so they're very fast--but you do everything in teams, just like 'tiger teams' that companies often set up for projects. I was shocked how closely the teams mirror what happens in the corporate environment.

And if by the time you're done with the program you're public speaking skills will be 100% improved. I have absolutely no fear of publics speaking now.

u did UOP?

1. Loose weight. (I have 30 pounds of weight still left to loose), and I started what I call 'phase 2' of my program this week. I'm excited, but I know it will be slow and grueling--but as far as I look at it, what choice do I have? To stay fat? no if I can help it.

2. Take control of my finances

3. re-imagine and invent my life. The old one is over.

IAintTheOne said:

Yes, I got my masters there.

cool i go to Axia.. finishing up my AA then gonna hit my BS in It security should be fun

IAintTheOne said:

Be careful when transferring credits to UOP. Because it's a private University, even though it's regionally accredited, they still don't accept all lower level (AA) credits--I had taken 3 math courses up to Trigonometry, and 3 English Lit courses through The University of Maryland, and they made me take rudimentary Algebra and English over again--those courses were a waste of my time being that 5 weeks of Algebra doesn't teach you shit -- But that's the perils of going private for a University and not a state run one.

I don't see a signle thing I'd change about you.

Me? I'm a hot ghetto mess.

But today, I accomplished 7 things I needed to accomplish. I have never felt as beautiful as I do right now.

It only takes killing off that part of you that always feels sorry for itself and wraps excuses around you like a fucking shroud!

I'm excited about this year. I mean, I can conceivably see myself by Fall, not just being back to my 2004/2005 weight, but back to my Military weight if I just apply myself hard enough.


2008 is just a stellar year-- so many challenges, and 'bumps', but for some reason, I refuse to be defeated by them this time. It's just time for me to stop playing the victim, you know.

Finish high school with a perfect score

Do great on my first semester of college

And get a damn banjo

And be with my boyfriend

Stymie said:

I will say the same right back to you beautiful lady

And feeling beautiful - is so important and healing I am so happy for you

I can't wait to meet you

To help every one of you reach YOUR goals.

RodeoSchro said:

Give me 11 grand now then


thanx

Imago said:

that, by far, is the hardest thing to do...
somehow i managed to already lose 10 from new years, despite my horrible self esteem
i'm not sure if 40lbs is too high a goal but i'll work as hard as possible to get healthy - my main goal at this point.

best of luck to you, love ( )

Mach said:

Is your goal to accumulate $11,000?

- actually save money
- go on a vacation for once
- give in and get my damn driver's license
- eat more healthily

ok i'm serious about all but the last one

RodeoSchro said:

Well, you can start by finding me a company in the UK willing to hire Americans on work visas.

Oh, the job has to pay at least the equivalent of 75+ grand as well (adjusted for living costs there of course), and 4 weeks of vacation.




I love you Rodeo

RodeoSchro said:

SCORE 10!

I need to set some knew ones. I am of the "without a plan my people parish" ilk. This child aint afraid to admit when she is up or down... I'd never bet against me anyway.

sammij said:

Good luck to you too!


Lets make a pact that in 6 months we'll be healthier, happier persons!

Well, healthier anyways--happiness...that's dependent on all sorts of variables ain't it?


ok ok, happier as well!
