My outfit today: coral shorts, white collar t-shirt and turquoise & gold earrings. A little "colour" never hurts!

And I am literally blogging from the forest...

While I sip on my coffee, in my L.L.BEAN Maine cup.

Here are some more interesting facts:

  • Tomorrow, I am going to be in a parade! HAHA OH MY GAWD! Okay, it's not that exciting, the parade will probably be 5 minutes (Greenville is not a big town), but I'll be in a Ford 51 Truck with Jordan and Eric and there will be people in the back! I think I will probably be in the trunk! I watched too many movies with parades in them. Need. To. Calm. Down. BUT I NEED TO FIND A CUTE OUTFIT! I NEED TO LOOK SMASHING! Should I do red, white and blue, or is that tacky? I am thinking white t-shirt, high waisted blue denim skirt and red earrings. I really want to wear a short white dress, but I know it doesn't fit me well. Those are the moments where I wish I was 5"10' and 120 pounds ugh. But it's okay, I can rock an outfit, 170 or 200. One thing is for sure, I don't know half the people I will be with tomorrow, so I am bringing my camera to keep me busy and to keep me from looking socially awkward. Thank you Canon.
  • Weight loss is 90% healthy eating and 10% exercise. I believe that. A lot of bloggers have been writing to me, telling me this, and I think it's totally true. When it's time to maintain your weight, that's a different story, but right now, time to focus on "the diet".
  • Remember about 5 months ago when I turned 21 and I drank this? Well, first of all, I don't remember most of that night, except eating coconut cupcakes in between my singing at the bar, talking all night with a guy from New Zealand, making out with the guy from New Zealand and then going back home to find my apartment full of friends and eating wheat thins with them.  Well, I got me some Fireball Whisky and tonight we are having a little party on the island. NO WORRIES MOM, I will not re-create my 21st birthday party. Those only happen ONCE. I plan on sipping on it all summer long, so I will limit myself to one or two glasses tonight, no more. I have a reputation to uphold, it's a small island. Plus, I am the oldest, I need to be responsible. Seriously.
  • Today, we are going to Greenville and I plan to have a crêpe for lunch. I had a healthy breakfast, I will have one crêpe for lunch and then dinner needs to be small, because of the parade tomorrow. I want to feel good. My body won't change overnight but eating healthy will help me feel confident.
  • The post about yesterday is indeed about boys. When are dilemmas about something else when you are a 21 year old girl?
  • Got to go now! WISH ME LUCK AT BEING HEALTHY! God knows I love food. But I want this more. So, I'll repeat in my head... I HATE SUGAR AND CARBS AND CUPCAKES AND COOKIES. Yeah, harder to say than do.
