Quick break!

I took my first exam and it went OK. Just one more to go! I have an hour before my next class so I thought I''d check PS, but you guys haven''t said anything in small talk! I''m disappointed!

Whats everyone up to this weekend?

 

[Dreamgirl]

Nobody's been around in small talk for like a week. I don't know what's going on around here! We need to have a 'lurker' recruitment thread lol Good luck on the next exam!

This weekend I have no plans yet...how bout you?

 

[Bia]

Dude, I''m fasting (three days: day 2) and I feel like I''m going to fall asleep. Why did I ever agree to do this?

All I want right now is a cheeseburger...

Good luck with test #2!!!

Ive been busy.

I stopped taking my laptop to class with me because I just sit on PS instead of paying attention.

So I can only post at work and that's MWF.

This weekend I have a friends birthday on Saturday... that's about it. FF is sick so we may just stay in on Friday or something. I have a lot of laundry to do... so I'll probably spend all day Sunday doing that.

Wow. I'm just super exciting in my old age.

ETA: Why are you fasting, Bia?

 

[Bia]

Because since the holidays I''ve been eating so much crap (on the sly...sorry to my FI!) that I just feel sluggish. So FI suggested doing a lemonade fast for 3-4 days to jumpstart my energy--he''s doing it with me. I guess the first couple of days are the hardest, but honestly I don''t think I can keep going. Last night I had a handful of lettuce and a tomato (it''s amazing how good plain lettuce can taste when you''re hungry!), so I sort of broke the fast. I''m going to keep trying but right now all I can do is think about dinner...dinner that I''m not going to have

The lemonade is good though...

Yea it is.

Nutritionally speaking, fasting a few times a year is good for your body because it cleans out your system. The drink itself it has enough nutrients from the lemons and pure maple syrup. You drink it as you''re feeling hungry. It''s definitely not easy and I think tonight I''m going to have some salad because I''m starving.

Oh...is this the one with the cayenne pepper too? I tried it once and last for a day! hahaha

 

[misskitty]

Bia, is it Master Cleanse? I think that''s the one I''ve heard of with lemonade and maple.

 

[Bia]

Yes m''ams, that''d be the one.

And sammy, I don''t think I''m gonna last out the evening...

I don''t blame you!!! You''ve lasted way longer than I ever will/would/did....

 

[chocolatefudge]

Oooo girls, didn''t even realise this thread was here!

Bia, I am very impressed with your fasting- I have consumed a yearly amount of calories today I think! Just couldn''t stop eating! Am going to try harder after the weekend...
Just be careful you don''t make yourself ill, heard loads of horror stories of detox diets ending in girls collapsing etc!

Anyway, off to have a shower and go to bed as it''s 10.30pm here in UK!

How''d your 2nd exam go, elle? What''s MWF by the way??

Laundry is a good way to spend a Sunday, but make your FF turn over the loads ...I hate that part!

MWF = Monday, Wednesday, Friday

2nd exam went pretty well. The prof fell asleep while we were taking it. I stood up to turn my exam in (I happened to be the first one done) and everyone''s like "DON''T WAKE HIM!" (In a stern whisper) So I was tip-toeing around him trying to turn in my exam. He didn''t budge. He was out cold. I left right after my exam, so I''m not sure at what point... if ever... he woke up.

One time he was late to class because he fell asleep in his office. At 2:30 (In a 2PM class) someone walked up to see if he was coming down. He was passed out, so he said kind of loud "Coming to class today?" and he jolted awake "What time is it? What class?" ".... 2:30... Senior Seminar in Sociology"

"I''ll be right there"

We haven''t let him live it down yet. He''s hilarious.

You need a better marketing team, DG!

 

[Dreamgirl]

lol yes, maybe I do!

 

[chocolatefudge]

Oooops! Sorry DG! I come on here everyday but don''t always post, however I like these laid back threads. Promise to look out for them from now on

Don''t know how I''ve missed them before...

lol I''m teasing....you know

I agree. The laid back threads are tons of fun!

 

[LabRatPhD]

Anyone doing anything exciting this weekend? It''s only noon here and I am already wishing it was 5:00! This has been an unbearably long week!

 

[Dreamgirl]

Do you ever feel LEFT OUT at work when people make plans to eat out for lunch (and your the only other one in the office for the day) and they still don't invite you?

Not to mention the *hush* *hush* secrets they will discuss while gone with everything happening around here these days. Only means they don't want me to know...

Whatever. That's fine. I'll stay here where people like me! lol

ETA- And I'm the one who's always like "Hey guys, we should go out to lunch sometime!" ok sure....without Dreamgirl...lol

Then again, I don't know if my co-worker is going out with another one...or her boyfriend. I could be over-reacting...lol

That''s better than "any minute now!"

Xoxo, that was the tiniest vent of all time. If you''re going to apologize for venting, it needs to be an astronomical vent! At LEAST with it''s own thread, and multiple angry emoties. Those mini-vents don''t need an apology.

Well....I guess any day now could be any minute now. Sure....just in time for the weekend too

^#%$*& lol (or not...) lol

That WAS the teeniest tiniest vent of all time...how cute! ha! My vents are usually a book long. And usually over dramatised exaggeration is my forte.
