First of all I have to say a massive thank you to all the people that commented on my last entry (and also spoke to me on MSN). I’ve been reading through your comments and they made me cry for two reasons – firstly because I felt so honoured that you guys gave up your time to help me and advise me and secondly because I hate the fact that some of you know where I’m coming from and that you’ve experienced it too. I will return comments at some point tomorrow, but I’m so grateful for each and every one, I didn’t expect such a good response.
Thankfully I’m feeling better, and it’s definitely the pro-active approach that’s working. My school PE teachers would die of shock if they knew my exercise pattern of the last few days (Saturday: Gym, Sunday: Dance mat workout, Monday: Gym, Yesterday: Swimming, plus over an hour’s walking to/from/around campus every day). Yeah I know it’s excessive. But it’s making me feel happy and it’s helping me sleep and it’s definitely increasing my appetite, which are all good things!
Argh…food. Yesterday we planned to make pancakes, but Hwan-Min’s car window got smashed by the COUNCIL (stupid road workers), and so that messed stuff up. But I still got pancake stuff, and a few of my friends came over. I don’t know if I mentioned how much Hwan-Min eats, but seriously. He suggested McDonald’s, then we spent a few hours making a cottage pie, THEN we made pancakes. And if that’s not enough, we went to an all-you-can-eat Indian food buffet this evening *falls over and dies with the amount of food consumed in the past 48 hours* It’s a good thing I’m not doing all this exercise to lose weight :P
So, I’m throwing myself into exercise and work, which is probably a good thing with 5 essay deadlines looming up, plus one exam (totalling close to 20,000 words I would guess). I’m going to go to the library tomorrow morning to make a start on preparation for my Chaucer essay – although I still need to pick a question, I’ve narrowed it down to 3 – rather than going to the gym. Then I have lectures in the afternoon, and after that…well, my family keeps messing me around with their weekend plans, and there are no trains on Sunday (or direct ones on Saturday)…and there’s no way I’m spending four hours on a bus so if they want me they can come to me!
*waves* Hi, I'm 
I am glad to hear that you’re doing better, Jenni!! *hugs*
Wow, I haven’t even exercised in a couple of years!! Like going to the gym, working out, etc…
Aww! Sorry that you couldn’t make pancakes! You’re actually making me want some right now… LOL.
Woah, GOOD LUCK WITH THE ESSAYS!!!
Wow, I’m glad you’re feeling better. It’s good that you can work through it…and eating more, sleeping more and exercising are all good things, I’m really glad for you! And it’s good you got to spend time with friends, as well. I always found the busier you are, the easier everything is to handle. Hope all goes well ’til next time!
hey you sound like you’re doing a LOT better! yay!
It’s good you’re sleeping more, no sleep is bad! That is a lot of excercise though, made me tired reading it! lol good luck on your exams and essays.
Ahaha, shame on me. Your question was What is 8+8 and I stumbled for a sec. I typed 18, then I’m like.. no… *wrinkles nose and ponders*.
That’s awesome to hear your better. Having something to concentrate on definitely takes your mind off the not so happy things. You are so dedicated to your exercise! Wow. I joined gym but the most I’ve been is like.. 3 times a week? Now I go once a week or something, and only to do 10 minutes of cross trainer and then yoga or pilates. Good on you.
So many essays! ahh. Good luck, i hope you do great.
Mmmkies. Take care of yourself!
I’ve just read your last comment *hugs*
I’m glad your ok now, exercise its good to improve your mood it releases the same mood enhancing chemicals as eating chocolate does.
Good luck with your essays
OMG Jenny sooo glad to hear you’re feeling better. Exercise is a great stress reliever, and it cheers you up. It’s great you’ve found something that makes you feel better.
