Here we go again :)

So, I guess it is time for a new blog.

I cannot believe this term is halfway done! That is so crazy. I feel like we have only just begun. I am very pleased for how far me and all my classmates have gone. I think we have all done very well so far. :) In my anatomy class an outline for the final project is due next next week. I think it might be a little bit difficult to focus on writing two papers at the same time. Usually, I will have one class that is fairly easy and on the other I have a big project to focus on. But in this case I have two to focus on! I guess all I have to say is bring it on!!! :)

So the no smoking thing is going pretty good so far. I have had a few since I have tried to stop. I know it's impossible to quit cold turkey, so I figure three a week is better than half a pack a day! Slowly but surely. :) My perfume isn't wasted by the smell of nasty smoke at least! And my clothes do smell better! I do need to clean out my car though, because it is quite a mess....

I have seen an improvement in my workouts. I have more energy to keep going and to push myself harder. I never thought or noticed that smoking affected my workouts. But since I have quit for the most part I have seen that it does change a lot. Also, my tummy feels a lot flatter! I did read the other day that people who smoke tend to have more belly fat because of the stress hormone cortisol. And I guess the best part about not smoking is that I won't have a high risk of dying of lung cancer or heart disease! It's funny how people kind of don't think about the most important risks of smoking! :/

Has anyone read any books from author Sophie Kinsella? I love her books! They are so funny and so entertaining. They always cheer me up no matter what kind of day I am having. But, unfortunately I have read almost all of her books! I am on her last one. Does anyone know of any other good books to read? I am also reading one by Jackie Collins. She isn't as good as Kinsella. So, if anyone has read a good book in the past, or knows of any good authors please let me know! :)
