Getting Fit (:

Getting Fit (:

 
 
 
Well a few days ago I was assigned a behavior change project for my health class and I have decided that I am going to start going to the gym a lot more to try to lose twenty pounds in about two months. This is very important to me for many reasons, I would like to not have so much joint pain in my knees they are already bad enough, I want to be able to wear whatever I want and not have to worry about it and I also would like to not hide behind my weight I want to be like I used to and be fun and out there and not worry about what people think of me. I need to start living a healthier lifestyle and I am hoping that this project will help me with it. I would love it if people supported me and helped keep me on track will all of this because I have realized that there are so many unhealthy choices in college and that I need to start making the right decisions and start working out and eating healthier. From this day on untill I get to the ideal weight that I want I plan to drink no more sodas and only drink water, I also plan to go to the gym three times a week and eat so much healthier.
 
If you want to make a change then lets do it together, Let me know what you are doing to change and I will keep everyone posted on my progress.
 
Thanks Everyone

Future MOUNTAINEER in the Making

 
 
I am so excited about applying to Appalachian State for Fall 2013. I am finishing up everything that is needed to send in today and hopefully come spring I will no longer be a Catamount and I will offically be a Mountaineer. WCU is great and all but App State will help me fulfill my dreams of becoming a FACS teacher. I am so excited in taking this next step in my life and finally getting where I want to be. Appalachian has been my dream for so long and now that I have a chance at getting accepted and finally doing what I love there is no greater feeling in the world. I will do whatever it takes to get there, right now that is going to Western and Doing well in classes and that is all that is asked of me. I want to make the people who inspired me to be a teacher proud and let them know that all of the effort that they spent helping me was not wasted and that I really appreciate all they have done for me. So everyone wish me luck as I send in pretty much all of the needed materials for the APPlication..
 
Sincerely,
 
A Very Egar Student

My Nephew <3

 
This week I found out that I am going to have a nephew. I am so excited about it and I know that he is going to be the most precious baby in the world. I can't wait to hold that Beautiful Baby Boy and spoil him rotten. I already know that I love that baby more than anything else in the world and he's not even mine. I am hoping that he is going to be like the gerber baby and be chubby and just the cutest thing ever. It seems so hard to believe that my Best Friend is going to be someones mom and wife in the next year. I am so proud of her for doing the right thing in keeping the baby because if she hadn't then I wouldn't get to be apart of this miracles life and get to watch him grow up into an amazing young man. I have never had anyone that is super close to me ever have a baby besides my aunt so I guess it's going to be a new experience for everyone. I love kids though and I just can't wait untill March 1st when my little Cupcake is due. Spring Break is going to be the best this year since Little Man is going to be here.
 
Your Aunt Rachael Loves you Cupcake and no matter what i'll always be here for you and help you with homework when mommy and daddy can't, I'll come to your sporting events, and i'll always be someone who you can talk to about ANYTHING at anytime.Your a miracle and are going to add so much to so many lives and everyone who sees you is going to love you. Your Mommy and Daddy love you so much and I know will give you the world if you want it. And no matter what always remember that you are LOVED. 
 

I can't wait untill you get here little Guy

One Month In College











I have been in College for about a month now and I have found that it is WAY different then High School. No more 8-3 Schedule, No more scheduled lunch time, Nobody telling me when I have to do something etc.. You get the Point. It's Freedom. Freedom comes with a price though, I Have found that it is a lot harder then I thought to be away from home and not being able to see my mom everyday. I really seem to be enjoying college for the Most Part, I have some great friends and my room is super cute and totally me. This past weekend I had several friends from college come to the house and spend the night so we could go to a Breast Cancer Walk and we all seemed to have a great time despite the cramped space in my living room. WCU is obviously my temporary home untill I can finally get to where I want to be but for now it's working. I love my classes so far and not having a test everyday like I did over the summer. My class schedule allows me to get out of class early and the best part is that I dont have to get up early AT ALL (: During this first month I found out that my best friend is having a Beautiful Baby Boy so what does that mean ? I'm gonna be an Aunt (: I am so thrilled that I finally am going to have a baby to spoil rotten. I can't wait untill he gets here and I get to hold him. I also have made a trip to Boone and found out that everything will work out for me to Go to App State in 2013 and I am beyond Happy About it. If anyone would like my address to write me please let me know. I love letters. I will keep everyone posted on my life here at WCU.
