lump

so good news, I got the lump under my arm checked out. And they said it's an infection, that will either just go away or could get worse. So I'm taking antibiotics, so I should be completely fine in about a week :)

Update

So I haven't given you an update or a starter point with my weight, I haven't been able to continue with my project. I have some issues with help right not, emotionally and physically. I have a bit of a lump thing in my armpit, we think it's a bug bite, blocked gland or a ingrown hair, but it bloody hurts so tomorrow I'm getting it checked out. But not keeping to my goals and getting healthy and being positive with my photography project has done just the opposite. It has made me sad and a little depressed, so I am making a promise to myself and whoever is reading this, (kind of hope I'm not just writing to myself, though it maybe therapeutic)
that I will not eat/drink:
- ice capps or frappies
- chips/cookies
- candy/marshmallows
- fast food
- chocolate

I will eat/drink:
- fruit
- veggetables
- whole wheat
- water

I really need some more support so please if you do read my blog, send some nice comment, help a sister out :) thank you!

Harry Potter

It's over, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 came out this week. Just watched it today, and cried my eyes out. I have grown up with these three and as stupid as it might sound, they are a part of me forever. Harry Potter was the first chapter book I ever read, my dad use to read it to me all the time, it was special father-daughter time that meant the world to me. I remember for my birthday, my mom made me a Harry Potter themed birthday, we made hats and wands (from sticks in my backyard, and capes (out of garbage bags) look back on the pictures are embarrassing but it was special. What ever you say about the books and the movies, they bring a lot of magic into children's lives, and I hope that they bring more magic into children's lives to come. I love you Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson and J.K. Rowling! Thanks for an amazing 14 years.

Travel Time

Today, I was off to Victoria again for the second time this month. Again I had a blast, we went to minature world, I got a shirt with Johnny Depp on it <3, got an caramel apple and I ate a bug it was an amazing day.

My favourite part : the plane window.

Some of the models looked so real

So looking forward to going back and seeing the bugs and going shopping some more. There's an amazing shirt shop called Utopia. Go take a look. I will post a picture of my Johnny Depp shirt tomorrow once I wear it for the first time. 

Good night my readers, I am off to bed <3

Projects

The other two projects I'll be doing this summer are :

1. Trying to lose 15 pounds of FAT
I am not trying to starve myself, or exercise til I pass out. What I will be doing is getting in the habit of eating healthy and finding exercises that work for me. I will be keeping a running tab of how the process is going and how much weight I have lost and how much muscle I have gained, to keep myself in check and to keep family and friends updated. I also hopefully I can help some people with health ideas on the way. I will be giving a starting weight and my goals that I want to achieve. Tied into that project is my other project.

2. Buying a cook book and learning how to cook by doing all the recipes in it.
Like Julie Powell did with Julia Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" (Ironically I'm starting to read The blog "The Julie/Julia project" and the book "Julie & Julia". (Sorry Kite Runner, you're just going to have to wait a little bit longer) All the movie, blog, and book plus my love for food, and making cakes.) I has be inspired to learn to cook, plus the fact that I want to lose weight and I'll be hopefully moved out of my parent's house in a couple years and the only real meal I can produce is a grilled cheese sandwich, I thought it will be a skill that will be needed.
The only problem is I have to find the right cook book to use, and willing victims..... I mean testers to taste my food.

 (I'll keep you updated)
