So, um, well, September didn't exactly go as planned. At all. I mean, I wanted to lose weight, but I didn't even have the courage to weigh myself. How pathetic is that? The rest of my goals? Ha. What are those? Let's take a little peek and see how I did in September.
1. Find as much information about readmission to UCF, financial aid for students seeking a second bachelor's degree, and the athletic training program itself. Completed!
I emailed registrar and financial aid with my questions, but I am still awaiting a response, unfortunately. Then I found past newsletters and admission requirements and all that fun stuff about Athletic Training. I don't think I'll actually email to ask specific questions until it's time for me to actually start thinking about applying.
2. Read two books. Fail!
I read one! Look out for the review coming soon!
3. Lose five pounds. Fail!
As I said before, I couldn't even weight myself. I also ate horribly and pretty much did no exercise at all. Losing five pounds most definitely did not happen. I'll have to take a step back and approach this whole being healthy thing differently.
4. Finally unpack even if I still don't have a room. Completed!
I tried unpacking, but then I quickly saw how I have nowhere to put my stuff. I'm trying to take over my brother's room, which is supposed to be my room, but that can only go so well when he actually still lives in there. I'm going to say I completed it even though it didn't actually get done, but I had every intention of finishing it if this stuff had a place to call home.
5. GET A JOB. Fail!
I got an unpaid internship, but alas, still no job! This is so frustrating!
Now it's a new month, so what am I going to get myself into?
1. I am getting a job.
2. The whole no technology thing I mentioned in this post? It's happening.
3. Tackle a way to become healthy that works for me.
4. Contact 20 people working in sports to ask advice for aspiring sport business professionals.
5. Have 5 volunteer opportunities lined up.
So September didn't go very well goal wise, but I felt so, so much better mentally. I'm excited to get on track in October!
September wasn't the greatest for me either... I didn't even try half of my goals, especially the fitness ones. Blah. Oh well, October is a brand new month and a new chance! We've got this! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThe fitness ones are definitely the hardest. Why isn't staying home and watching Netflix good for me? This month will definitely be better. Things always seem to get better in the fall!
DeleteYou got 2.5 goals out of 5, and one of those 5 is a goal you only have so much control over. I'd say you did GREAT! Best of luck with the job...I hunted for 2 years before finding a (now bad) one, so I sympathize. If there's anything I can do to help, let me know! Volunteering and internships are a great way to go, so you're definitely on track. You got these!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I actually had an interview today, so hopefully things are starting to head in the right direction.
