If you headdesk and facepalm at the same time, is it a facedeskpalm? Or a palmfacedesk? Or just a handdesk?

I'm completely fucked for tomorrow's Bio class. COMPLETELY fucked.

I wish I didn't go for sweets the minute I was stressed. That gimongous piece of cake didn't really make me feel any better, and I ate it anyway. Can I go through some kind of conditioning so that the first thing I go for when I'm stressed is a plateful of veggies?

I think when I get my own apartment I just won't even keep candy in my house. That'll solve so many problems.

I've decided that I'm going to give up swearing for Lent, as well as just trying to be a better, more loving, more forgiving human being. Fifty says I don't make it through the first one.

I would be more enthusiastic about going to church if I didn't leave every Mass convinced that I'm going to hell. Whether or not I actually am is borderline irrelevant - it just makes me *feel* like I'm going to hell.

Back to work. See y'all around.

i am probably fucked in terms of the GREs. Yea, I have cooled my cursing a little bit especially since i am at home.

I don't even know what i am going to give up for lent, probably dark chocolate. I crave it too much.

I was head for chocolate or candy when i am depressed, nervous, stressed or when ever something is difficult. I find that drinking ice water or tea stops those urges.

Yea, I feel the same way at Mass, that is why I don't go as often as I should. I also guess feel guilty about being pro-choice sometimes, and not agreeing with a few things.

I don't talk as filthy when I'm at home, but...well, I'm not at home. So. Yeah. XD

I picked giving up swearing mostly because I knew trying to give up candy would drive me nuts. :) Drinking tea makes me stop craving chocolate for maybe a half-hour, but even then, I'm back to really really wanting chocolate not too long after.

...considering that it was the very first word I said when I woke up this morning, I'm going to need luck. Thanks a bunch big sis.

Personally I'm not sure how you would go about conditioning yourself to chow down on veggies when you're stressed, but I'll call up Pavlov and see what he can do. Maybe if we just get the veggies to exude rays of serotonin...?

One of my supervisors at work says she's giving up swearing for Lent. I don't think anyone thinks it'll happen, but one can always try.

It's an idea, definetly an idea. I suppose it will probably be more complicated than Pavlov's dogs...maybe if i just shoot endorphins straight into my brain every time I eat carrots or broccolli, that'd work. Of course, I'd end up an addict and/or dead, but hey.

Frankly, I don't think I'm going to do so well at it either. It's a terribly hard habit to break. >__

You're fucked for bio tomorrow, too? High five! I have a huge test that I haven't even started studying for - I even brought my bio book home with me in the hopes that I'd crack it. I didn't. But you'll do fine, cause you're brilliant. And no trying to deny it, or I'll smack you around. Nevermind that I'm in MA, I'll still do it.

Woo... trying to stop cursing? I couldn't do that. Not at aaaalll... You'll do it though - You're of stronger stuff than I.

Next time you crave chocolate, just reach for carrots. Or put the chocolate in a very inconvenient place, to make it much more of an effort to get at. You will want it a lot less when you have to go hunting around for them.

Heh, it wasn't a test that I had but a lab report and presentation that I'd only half-finished when I wrote that journal. It actually didn't go as badly as I thought, so...we shall see when I get my grades back.

Oh noes! I does not want to be smacked around by your mind powers! >____<

I'm not sure how well I'm going to do at that, seeing as my very first word upon waking up yesterday (my last non-curse-free day) was "Oh, f---". Of course, I had almost slept through my first class, so I did have a kind of good reason, but still.

Ah, good idea. Now I just have to find an inconvenient place to keep my chocolate. XD There aren't a whole lot of inconvenient places in here.

I'm sure you'll find an inconvenient place. How about hidden under your bed in a shoe box? You'd have to really, really want it to go rummaging around in the far corner under the bed.

I'm sure you did fine on the bio stuff. My test starts in an hour and fifteen minutes, which leaves me forty minutes to finish studying, ten minutes to get ready, and about twenty minutes to have a panic attack. We'll see how it goes.

Actually, I store a surprising amount of stuff under my bed, including my vitamins, extra paper towels, extra shampoo, and personal sanitation products. So I'm fairly familiar with the under-the-bed area.

There is, however, a storage space above the closet where I normally store my suitcases. I cannot reach it without the aid of a footstool or really big shoes. Now that I think of it, this seems like a likely spot.

Good luck on your upcoming Bio test. And remember - breathe in, breathe out. It helps with the panic attacks. :)
