Change

Yet again I feel like I'm mid identity crisis and it calls for change in looks, style, attitude and life style. If you cant love yourself who will so it has to start with you.

I plan on not failing this time. School, new job soon *crosses fingers*, I need to clean my house/heart/mind or I will lose it soon.

GO TEAM KARINA!!!

Perhaps perhaps perhaps

No processed food is hard because we as Americans are lazy slobs that are all about instant gratification. I will try to be unAmerican this week and get off my fat ass and do something for my body that is good.

I will try this one again starting tomorrow. It IS the season of garden veggies from my moms.

See more progress on: no processed foods for a week

Restart no. 283

Its amazing. When left with nobody but yourself around and with nothing to do you have amazingly less to make excuses about. Why do we make excuses for ourselves? It gets us nowhere. Makes no advanced in our lives, gives no advance at all. We are merely cheating ourselves of the truth. There is always some pain in growth. If you don't occationally do thing wrong how will you learn. Lety me tell you I've done a lot of learning in my short 30 years of mistakes or is that the other way around? 30 years of mistakes here and there have made for one hell of a learning expierence. Any such the case... I'm just saying it time to be honest with myself and learn a little more.

PS- damn you OCD!!!

It's for the better

I am taking a much needed break from the internet but I will keep a journal via paper and update when I get back.

Gettin yer hands dirty

It feels good to do something that gets your hands dirty. There is a sense of accomplishment to it. The bigger the mess to conquer, the better the feeling in the end result. Go us!!

So full...and thankful

Good food and family sometimes seem hard to come by. I have adopted many a friends to be family. I have also adapted many recipes and made them my own. For the fourth or so year I have run the kitchen for Thanksgiving solo. Everyone likes to try and help but I prefer to do it myself. I have too many things going on to have to figure out what to tell someone to do and in the end them helping stresses me out....with that said.

I am thankful that I have people to call family that are there for me even when I think I don't need it. I am thankful that for the time being... I have a roof over my head, a job and a fridge full of food.

Thank you to all those that may I not know your face I know your hearts and have been an ear... even when I didn't know I needed it.

Happy Thanksgiving yall!

I really need to keep on this thing right? Cause of all the readers... wait... there's just me. ANYWAY!!

I have recently has some sort of mind shifting, mind blowing, heart warming Karina mental moments lately.

I no longer care about a lot of things. The negative was left somewhere in my past where it should stay. Which is not to say I don't bad days, REALLLLLLLY bad days. After all we don't know the good without the bad right. I am saying that I know that everything in life must be a lesson or what is the point. Don't hold the bitter in or it will rot the savory and sweet moments in your life. I can only live each day for what it is and I can only love me and those around me for what and who they are.

I am a new me and that's all I can be. I am Karina. I am a strong beautiful smart woman who is learning what she wants and how to get it. Love me for me and who I am right now not who I can or will be.... I know I am.
