What I want Wednesday–Inaugural

June 13, 2012 by Mellie Dee 3 Comments

Workout

30 min cardio
Arm: 5 lb. weight; 3 sets of 12
– Slow Burn Bicep Curls
– Pushups
– Tricep Extensions
– Shoulder Presses
Ab: 3 sets
– Plank – 35 sec hold
– Leg Raises – 12
Leg: 3 sets
– Forward Lunges – 12 right, 12 left
– Squats – 10
– Wall Sits – 30 sec hold

This time around it was a little tougher. I woke up pretty sore but I still pushed through. “Pain is only temporary!”

What I Want Wednesday

I’m not one to do “What I Ate Wednesday” because in all seriousness, who wants to see eggs mixed with some kind of vegetable every Wednesday? You can see that on my Instagram pretty much once a day. Find me on Instagram (@cripple15). I promise that’s not all I post …

So I’m doing my own thing. I’m pretty sure that this has been done before. If so, my bad. I just thought about it as I sat here surfing the web. I want a lot of things. But need nothing. I have everything I need in life to survive. But I thought this would be fun.

Here goes:

“I Pick You” Guitar Pick | $?

If I ever date someone, I would want this as a gift. It’s so cute! I’ll never use it though. Don’t want to mess it up.

Camera Lens Mug | $11.25

Don’t have the money for a DSLR. This would be the closest thing to it …

Custom Stamped Sterling Silver & Suede Wrap | $36.00

I’d probably get it to where it says “Shut up and run”. And I don’t think $36 is worth it for this … Some people are ridiculous with prices.

Bra Case | $38.49

So damn smart. I wish I had the brain to come up with these things. Then I’d be the one who’s rich!

Food sounds so good right now. Shower time. Then dinner!! Open-mouthed smile

Happy Hump Day!

Reunion with Tan

I haven’t seen an old friend of mine, Tan, for 2+ years. And today we did what we always do. Go to the mall.

2012-06-07 13.11.48

I’ve been doing Paleo but that dang food court didn’t have anything Paleo so I went for the Philly Cheesesteak Wrap. If I’m going to break my eats, I’m going to go all the way. And I got a bag of chips. I know, I know. I declared today as cheat day.

2012-06-07 14.26.54

After lunch we walked around the mall for over 2 1/2 hours. Since he paid for my lunch, I paid for our dessert. Yum! I’m not a fan of cookies, but I was craving some.

On the way home, I took the long way and passed by my old high school. Don’t be fooled. My high school was at least 1/2 a mile long with two floors. This doesn’t count the Athletic part of the high school. I know they say college is the time of your lives but I really, really loved high school. I knew who I was and who I belonged with. Now I feel lost.

Remodeling

Since I’m home now. For good. With a job and all. I’m going to remodel my room. Excited. I have a plan set out and I’m ready for changes!

2012-06-07 20.27.13

I cleaned up a bit before realizing I need to take a picture since these changes will be dramatic.

2012-06-07 23.04.41

Halfway there. I’m done for the day. Time to rest up for another day of clean up.

2012-06-07 23.18.57

It’s been thundering really loud and I’m scared! So Rocky is sleeping with me tonight. I haven’t been sleeping on either of the beds and have been on the floor. Lucky him. Winking smile

Goodbyes

May 24, 2012 by Mellie Dee 2 Comments

I know I keep saying I have new places to blog about but I’m being serious. I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. You know, with the whole packing up five years of my life here in college, saying bye to everyone, and moving back home to work full time for the rest of my life – it’s a lot for a girl to take.

Graduation? Check! Birthday? Check! Brother’s second graduation? Check! Packing my life up? Halfway check!

In a few days, I’m headed to Destin and New Olreans.

And remember my last post about no go to Hong Kong? Things have changed and I’ll be going there in July! Very excited. I haven’t seen my mum’s side of the family since 3rd grade!

Here’s a picture from my Spring Break road trip with the family. This was at Oklahoma. Balancing on that was tough.

Jenny’s graduation is this Saturday. My brother, Tammy, and Billy will be coming in tonight along with Pluto and Krypto! Whoop! So excited … to see Pluto! Winking smile

Hong Kong Is A No Go

May 7, 2012 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Currently sitting in the FTK room in the CPE. With Patricia and Jakob. We are studying and getting ready for finals. Finals week have started and we’re on a roll!

Tell me why it’s always easier to write a blog post then a paper. Make that two. I have to write two papers. Bleugh. And not to mention, a programming project. Let’s just say senioritis has hit me on the head and it won’t leave.

Tell me why I’m still sitting here after many hours even though I haven’t been productive. Actually I can tell myself that. It’s always nice to be some people’s company. Even when they are busy. It’s just nice to be in the same place with that person. Especially since once I graduate, I will be moving back home for my job. I want to stay with these people as much as I can.

Anyway, I got back to San Antonio Sunday and went to an Urgent Care Clinic. I was in too much pain that I couldn’t take it anymore. Still get sleepy at weird times, sore everywhere, headaches come and go, etc. etc. He said everything’s okay and that it’s normal but if it still continues, I would need to come back. Yucky! Let’s all hope that I won’t have to do so. I hate doctors.

My plans to go to Hong Kong for three weeks this summer is slowly dying. The prices are skyrocketing and there’s no way I can pay for that ticket to and from and pay for food. Not possible! So I’m in a sad mood. But it’s okay. I am now looking at a cruise or fly somewhere closer and cheaper with the mum and include the sissy in it. I’m excited. I hope this happens! Even if it’s not three weeks and only a few days, it’ll still be better than nothing.

Oh and the plans to go to Destin for a few days and New Orleans for one day on a road trip is seeming to be happening since the hotels are booked. No backing out. Excited. Just need to find a swimsuit I’m comfortable with. Right now I’m aiming for a halter one piece swimwear dress.

Graduation is in 5 days. I am no where near ready. Just need to get through these finals!

Everyone else that has finals coming up good luck! For those that are already out of school, have a good week!!

I don’t think I’ve been this happy in a long time. Since high school I felt like everything has been falling apart. But now that I’ve grown and found out that there are some amazing people around me and opened up to them, I feel happier. Everything is even going my way … mostly. And it’s just … great. So great that sometimes you know something horrible will happen … and it did.

I got into a car accident Wednesday night. Unexpectedly. It was all the other person’s fault and he admitted to it. Bumper to bumper. My car is perfectly fine … just a little scratch but my whole body feels like I’ve been hit by the car itself. Don’t worry. Plans to go to the doctor is tomorrow. Oh and I’m okay.

I drove to Katy this morning to make it to Nicole’s Bridal Shower. First real official bridal shower. All the other ones were just friends getting together and stuff. I love my girls and their family. It just feels right. I feel like I belong … finally.

Here is a plethora of pictures from these past few days. Enjoy.

After an interview with a company in Houston, I went to go buy a present for the Bride-to-Be, Nicole. My face of, I don’t know how this works. There are too many things on the list. But I figured it out and it was kind of fun! (Oh and the interview? Let’s just say, I’ll be a grown up soon enough! Winking smile)

With Jakob and Andy. It was Andy’s birthday. But he doesn’t celebrate birthdays. So we went out to eat with a big group of people then the three of us and Marisol went to Kona Grill and had Sake Bombs! Since it was his 21st, we had to go all out! So much laughter. So much memories.

With Christina, Apurva, Carl, and Andy in the FTK room. Just having a fun time taking random pictures on the Mac. It feels great not having to worry as much about finals as everyone else. Senior status. Open-mouthed smile

Jenny brought home Roc. Roc is Jenny’s friend’s dog. He’s been staying with us the past few days. Such a chill beagle mixture!

At Nicole’s Bridal Shower. Country Western Themed. Cute little snacks. There were even cowboy hat cookies, delicious punch, strawberries with whipped cream, etc. I just didn’t get a picture of everything because I just wanted to pig out!

With Nicole, Bride-to-Be. I love her! Don’t mind me. I just drove three hours to come to the party and I didn’t have time to fix myself up.

May 5, 2012
With Nicole, Stephanie, and Michelle. Pretty much all the girls I ever hang out with from back in the high school days. I love them so much! No matter how far apart we all were from one another, Nicole – Texas Tech, Stephanie – University of Texas, Michelle – University of Houston, Me – University of Texas at San Antonio, we were able to stay friends and keep that bond.
