I ruined my diet today by eating half a litre of chocolate ice
cream. However, I think that it is only fair since I have a cold
and it’s the middle of final exams. I simply deserved it!

Actually, today was my weigh-in day. Every Tuesday I
decided. It’s been one week, and five pounds are gone. I’m
glad. Five more pounds and I will be back to where I was a couple
months ago. I think, by the time I’m done my thirteen week
jogging program, I just might be below two hundred pounds.

I got up extra early this morning to study a little before my final
exam in family nursing. Instead, my eyes remained glued to the
television, watching the moments in which the new pope was elected,
announced, and emerged to greet the crowds for the first time. It
was an extremely powerful event that gave me the shivers and goose
bumps.

Expanding on my previous post…I believe that a lot of pagans forget
that they aren’t the only ones that “raise energy” or “create
ritual.” It is obvious that the Catholic church are experts in
this, as is evidenced by watching recent events. However, they
simply define it differently than pagans. Anyway, by saying that
pagans should pay attention, I mean that we could learn something of
ourselves by experiencing the catholic rituals. Also, we may
understand Christians just a little bit more, and prevent a lot of
prejudice against them..
