Sleep deprivation can do crazy things to the mind. I slept ok last night. I have a standup fan that can kind of block SOME noise. The only problem is that its cold now. I also have a roommate who is ridiculously loud. She sits at the kitchen table outside my door for hours on end yelling into her cell phone and she leaves…

zombie elephants!

I seem to run into this problem when I visit my parents . Basically I just scope out whatever meal is present and try to pick the healthiest options. The last time I visited they cooked this huge meal of all starches... I ended up just eating the meat and picking green beans out of a casserole. That obviously isn't…

Turns out all I needed to do was rest, watch a few episodes of How I Met Your Mother, and go take a Zumba class. I feel better today. I'm still a little blue .. but that's probably just from being anxious about being alone during holidays. I'll just keep moving and it'll all work out eventually.

LOL. this is hilarious.. and quite possibly true. To answer the question, I think it is a universal thing for both men and women...

This is the funniest thing I have ever read, even though it is a legitimate question haha. Thank you MFP for brightening a rather glum day.

Thank you guys. It's just hard when I feel like I've spent all this time working to be happy and things just seem to get messed up. I think I just need a few days of decent nights sleep and I'll be fine. Moving out of the state is silly, I already live 5 hours from my hometown as it is.. If things hadn't gone done so…

This was me last week. I finished up on midnight Thursday ... I had classes/internship end early because of graduation. It is so easy to get distracted during finals week. Luckily, we have MFP .. we can take a break and focus on something positive then get back to work.Good luck guys!

No offense, but your doctor is an idiot. Maybe he/she isn't ... but if you do have a legitimate concern. Weight gain aside, it is really hard to maintain a daily active lifestyle if you are feeling all inbalanced. Some underlying conditions, like PCOS, make it to where you can't tolerate triphasic pills.They will literally…

Anything Third Eye Blind... LOVE IT . I have all kinds of guilty pleasures lol, Motion City Soundtrack, Nelly, old Manchester Orchestra, etc. Oh yea, how could I forget? Destiny's Child.

That period of adjustment is ROUGH. The first few days after you significantly limit carb intake are so draining. It honestly feels like you're getting the flu or something. Then, your body adjusts :). I definitely don't eat a super low carb diet though, just a limited one.

For the most part, no. I will heat whole grains and fruit as a snack but I always pair it with a protein. I only do this though 1. because I'm insulin resistant so eating anything that is refined is going to make my sugar go crazy causing me to be sleepy and just feel bad in general and. 2. I wasn't able to lose any…

Sounds motivational. I'm down. Challenge accepted?

Double post.

I'll probably be way too cold the next time.

I am sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. I don't know anything about the type of birth control you are on .. but I do know that some diet pills can amplify the effects of anxiety or stress. You might not notice it at first, but then you find yourself huddling in a corner somewhere crying (I once found an old roommate…

lol. The little ones can be so feisty

One and only breakup story.. I moved about 2.5 years into our relationship. I wasn't happy at my college, and I wanted to transfer schools. We were doing the long distance thing, but things got hard. Within 2 weeks, 3 people from our hometown died (one of which was a friend who committed suicide). We were both pretty…

This is Bella. She is basically Stewie from Family Guy. She can be evil, but she loves me . I talk about her way too much.

Eargasm indeed. I ended up getting tickets :) I haven't had the chance to read anything for "fun" in a long time ... but I am going to graduate in a few weeks, so it's definitely on my todo list. I have a feeling I'm going to re-obsess RHCP style pre and post concert.

It's getting worse. :/ I don't mind being sick, it just needs to hold off til Thursday. I went to workout this morning and when I tried to lift anything above my head or do anything that required upper body strength I felt really weak . I even fell down when I was doing pushups. This is odd for me. I guess I'll just rest…

I like John Frusciante's solo stuff too . I'm curious as to how this tour is going to sound without him. I'm sure they'll announce more shows ( and definitely California). They have about a month gap in the dates right now , they'll probably fill it in soon. I'm about to try to order tickets to the Columbia show at 10.…

Status update : Somehow I fell asleep around 12 through the noise, but after waking up several times I texted her at 2 asking her to be quieter because she knows I have a lot to do and that I'm not feeling well. They all left shortly after. Bring on the fun stares! :/ As for the blonde comment, I'll have fun on Wens ...…

She just "liked" my facebook status which references how tired I am. I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt and thought that maybe she just didn't know she was being so loud. Obviously she doesn't care. They are yelling.. then they whisper (which means they are talking s***). Girls are crazy. I'm living with a guy…

I keep saying I'm going to get earplugs.. it just really shouldn't be necessary. We are all 22-25 yrs old. It just seems like it's common sense. I'm going to try to focus on something more positive for now. I'm just trying to keep all my stress and sleep deprivation from exploding on her, forever causing a uncomfortable…

Mine is completely random.... from middle school music when I thought I was so punk rock to guilty pleasures of mainstream music today. It's basically anything that would make me bounce around when I hear it , despite being in the gym. Currently, things on my spotify playlist include Airborne Toxic Event, LiL Wayne, The…

I wish MFP had a "like" button. :)

LMAO - Exactly . That is the truth.

Naturally... I'm pretty blonde . I had more fun when I was more blonde. Now that it's time to get down to business ... eh, lol. I feel more "fun" when my hair is dark in the winter and sun bleached blonde in the summer. Just different kinds of trouble.

lol. Like water off a duck's back.
