God gave us free will. There's no one to blame. How long before we learn to take responsibilty for our own actions and to finally act responibly?

Art is creation, which is a form of expression, which is the freeing and expanding of one's self...

Im sorry 'charley's philly steaks', i was under the impression that my cheddar bacon fries woul have real cheddar and bacon. Silly me! Time to start eating healthy again.

January Evaluation

So, I was dreading this moment. I have rated this past months progress. I am of course, subjective because I am considering the difficulty I faced in attempting these behavioral modifications and the extenuating circumstances that surround my endeavors. Its not an average, so don't check my math either. But I have to do this because things that can be measured can be actively improved upon.

Monthly Evaluation:
Rating: 2.7/5

BODY: 3/5
I started out pretty good...I was eating healthier and taking some pointers from 4hrbody just like I planned...and it lasted a whole two weeks! I ate that almost every morning, and liked it! I did notice I had more energy lol and it was fun to cook more. But I didn't keep it up. :/ I didn't exercise either, except for daily static stretching--which is good cause I made a habit of it!
I was aiming for healthier food choices and minimal exercising. DEFINITELY got that last part down. ;) lol Now I know that doesn't look very healthy, but it was... protein and legumes and veggies > sugar and bread carbs. I ate spinach and beans with almost every meal. That's an improvement upon cookies and various other sweets.

BRAIN: 3/5
Partial success. I am back in school, sitting in the computer center @ OCC right now, waiting for my next class. I definitely could have gone about it a bit better though, waitlists suck. :/ And all that music stuff? FAIL. Language stuff, partial success. Livemocha is amazing. I however, did my best to avoid talking to anybody who speaks another language and thus managed to thwart that other goal of mine.

SPIRIT/MIND: 2/5
Well...I did increase the frequency in which I read my Bible and prayed etc. but not enough yet. I did not alter my frame of mind in any significant way so that's a fail--I mean... an area to improve in. ;)

All in all, it was a better effort than my pessimistic side expected of me. Now I feel obligated to do more, since I can't stand losing/failing...so February will be better. :)
