This Was One Long Week

And can you believe it’s only Wednesday? I’m tired. I’m pooped out.

Monday’s activities wiped me out as well as Tuesday’s. I haven’t caught up on sleep since I had no time yesterday and I couldn’t fall asleep today due to the pills.

Tuesday was crazy. I left the apartment around 7:50am and returned around 10:15pm. I had my PE class, then my Social Welfare class, then some errands, the first visit for a toric lens study, then work. I would’ve gotten home an hour earlier, but as I was getting off of work, I ran into JL and NL and hung out with them a bit.

I felt a little left out though because they had all these inside jokes between them and I couldn’t really fit in anywhere. It’s been too long since I’ve spent time with them and it was a little difficult for me I suppose. I wish I could, but NL is busy studying for his MCATs and JL’s got his schoolwork and girlfriend to spend time with. I see JL though on Sundays when we go to church, but that’s about it.

Today was a bit less tiring, but since I haven’t slept too much in the last few days, I’m tired. I want to sleep, but I think there may be a possibility of my seeing Asian Dude later, so I want to be awake and alert.

Tomorrow will be another long day since I’ve got work. I really want them to find someone new. I had a friend come into the store, but since she didn’t mention me and I wasn’t there, they told her that they weren’t hiring. I will have to make next week my last week though because after that, I have midterms and I need the time to study, not work. I just wish they were doing something about it. Or maybe they are and I just don’t see it because I’m not there a lot.

I’m tired and sleepy. Maybe some coffee would be good or a quick shower. Ideally, sleep would be good, but can’t… not yet anyway.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I failed this morning. Today in our fitness class, we had to determine what our max lifting was for a particular exercise. There were quite a few, but of the exercises that I chose for my workout, only one was on the max test: pull ups. Now for the last six weeks, I had been doing the assisted pull ups, the ones that will push you up depending on the weight you choose. The heavier the weight, the more it will push you up. The lighter the weight, the harder you have to work.

So my first max test was at 30 pounds. That was about… four weeks ago? I was really hoping to do one pull up today, just one, unassisted, but I couldn’t. I failed. I don’t know if I could have done better because the machine has a default weight of 20 pounds, so I wrote that down as my max.

It’s okay though. I have my next fitness class starting next week and soon, you shall see, I will conquer that damn bar!
