#3, #15, #11, #12, #16, #60
I've been working on #3 for a couple of months now. I've cut out candy from the diet completely. I cut out fast food as well (#15) by cutting out bad fast food joints, mostly sticking to subway and BK (veggie burgers) and chipotle. But now, I've cut those completely out. I also cut out a significant amount of sugar as well. All of that has helped me convert to a vegan diet.
I can't tell you; I've never felt better. Of course, the first month is always the hardest... I have serious cravings for chocolate cake and CheeseIts and whatnot... but I keep on thinking about how great I feel, how great I look (my skin has never looked better, even with all my excessive water drinking). Of course, now I really have to take my vitamins now (#11), including B complex and my iron tablets. I can't believe that I'm at this point in my life right now... it seemed so impossible just a couple of months ago.
I am exercising too, but it's too cold to go outside and run yet, so I'm saving #16 for when it gets warmer... I just don't have time to go to the gym and wait to use a treadmil. I did do #12 awhile ago, but I guess since I haven't updated here so long, I never crossed it out. I have to go to sleep earlier anyways with my insane class schedule.
As for #60: I wanted to get a domain this month, but because I had to buy tires for my car, that's out. It also looks like I'll have to pay for most of my car insurance (which really isn't all that bad, (compared to everyone else in my family) but an unforseen expense.
Here's to good health and updating this sooner than later.

#78, #36 and the end of summer
i don't know what took me so long. i finally went out and bought a bookcase...well, they're like cubbies for books and other stuff. now, all my books that i bought that i never read are out of bags and on the shelfs... only to be replaced with more books (that i couldn't help but order from ama.zon) and will surround by bookshelf/ cubby center on the floor. fabulous.
summer has passed by fast and i didn't do anything. i was supposed to finish the website and launch by september, but since i don't have anybody's info (so their fault), i'll be pushing that back. i also had to alter the design a bit, but i haven't really gotten anything on file. also, i wanted to at least start on my novel (and i have a really good story brewing too), but i was just too lazy to even start an outline or anything... well, maybe i can start with an outline.
despite the fact that school will be starting, i think i'll actually have time to take a weight lifting class and even.. gasp! workout! i mean, i had all of august off and i really didn't even attempt to try to go to the gym. i don't know... laziness i guess.
what else... financially, my credit card bill(s) (yes, plural.... i must cut them up!) are out of control. out of control for me is still being able to pay but having to pay alot. unfortunately, my cell phone (that i loved) busted and i have to buy a new one... that was unexpected, especially since i have to buy books as well.
individual section... eh, let's just say: put on hold.
hope to update sooner than i have.
peace.

The Rest of #88; #84
so i didn't actually buy the mattress, but i got one. extra firm and i actually sleep so much better. so much so that i'm up at four in the morning because i have already gotten all the sleep i needed..
i was trying to go to nyc this month (#66) and visit my friend Mic and my cousin, but that all fell through. too much stuff to do at church and lab. also, talking about church, i need to start working on the website because i know i won't during classes.
oh. and i just recently found out that i still have dental insurance, so i actually went to the dentist the other day. i have 'perfect' teeth, i'm happy to report. i'm surprised because it's been two years since i went. but yay! i'm really happy about that.
the trip to the washington monument must be delayed (#61) because it's tourist season and you actually have to get tickets to get into the monument... so i'll be waiting for fall to go.
my room is somewhat organized (#68), but i still have stuff everywhere, so it doesn't count. man, i didn't realize how many things i have done (or close to doing) already... how long ago did i make this list?
peace.

#9 and #49
man, this was so hard... but i was going to make april my month... and i did it...
what did i learn:
1. i spend alot of money on candy
2. i ended up distributing the candy money on mags, hair products, toothpaste, deoderant and generic body lotions (yeah, i don't know either...)
anyways, i know i can't completely stop eating candy (i mean, who really can't), but i've drastically cut that down.
adding number 49 when i realized that i spent 400$ on my credit card this month. most of it is for transportation, but i've been really out of control with that. with the taxes (which is still killing me), the car purchase and no money in my account, the fact that i had to pay 400$ this month was not pleasing. anyways, i want to at least cut down to 200$ or so (that's how much my transportation is costing me right now... parking the car and taking the train to school). i'll see if i can do that for this summer.

#23, #24 and #63
it's amazing the amount of willpower one has when studying for a very crucial midterm. #23 and 24 are crossed off.
i met this guy at school, so #63 is gone too. i don't know where it's all going... sure to keep you updated.
as for number 61, aabs was telling me how they opened up the monument; they finally finished renovating. might go next week.
T owes me a wizards game; they're still in the game (unlike the lakers... HA!)
peace.
