Weekend News!
Went home to see the family for the weekend. My Aunt has a beach house on Long Island and they throw a party every year. I had a pretty good time, but I'm still incredibly self-conscious about my appearance. Most of the people there were tanned and in great shape, and I am... neither tan nor in shape. Regardless, I got to hang out with my family, played some board games, enjoyed the weather, and got to eat lots of great food! (mmm Lobster)

Had my last class meeting tonight, so I'm done with summer classes! I get a whopping 3 weeks off before the fall classes begin. I'm going to take advantage of this break to get serious about going to the gym. All of my free time will be dedicated to eating, sleeping, and exercise. A co-worker of mine is going to help me out, he used to be a personal trainer in college (and did wrestling, etc). I think he wants to go the whole nine yards, with a log book and body measurements and everything, not like I'd complain :) I'm pretty psyched up about it to be honest.

Appearantly the Wii I ordered off of eBay was attempted to be delivered last Tuesday, but I never found the pink "attempted delivery" slip. I'm not really sure what to do about it, other than drive to the nearest post office and see if they can track it down for me. The USPS Website is pretty useless, it just says that they attempted to deliver my package but doesn't say where I can pick it up or any phone # I can call to schedule redelivery.

Hmm, I guess that's about all that's new with me. Maybe I'll log in to FFXI after I eat dinner.

Take your tracking number to the post office and have them find it for you.
I wish you well at the gym. I started a gym membership but I am thinking that its not such a great idea anymore because I think of gyms as toning and building places for people who already have muscle, I need to develop something to work with before I can work on making it better. So I am probably gonna stick to surfing since thats excellent cardio and depending on what your doing (Paddling/swimmming/etc etc) you essentially get a full body workout minus the abs.
And I think the results from swimming/surfing will produce more 'natural' results that I'm looking for.

Man I'm jealous. I got 3 more weeks before my 3 week break. Suffering through the last couple weeks is always the worst. The finals, the group projects, the papers and the anticipation of 3 weeks off!

Shouldn't they attempt to drop it off again if you don't go claim it? Should be easy enough to go down to your local post office sorting place though and get it. I did that for my FFXI when I first ordered it, arrived on a night where I wouldn't get it for 3 days or something so I drove down there, gave them my name and got it right away. Good luck getting it!
