prudens_mcgonagall: (not perfect - awesome parts)

Catching up with two of my best school friends (we've been friends for... oh my God, for almost 18 years!) really helps to get rid of my usual spring depression (yep, usually people have depressions in autumn and adore spring, but with me it all goes other way round). Tomorrow (*looks at the watch* actually today *gg*) we are having dinner together in some Korean restaurant (one of my friends had his minor in Korean language and spent a year in South Korea - it explains his choice of the place )) )

I lost 15 pounds (almost 7 kilograms) in 95 days - I'm really proud of myself. It really helped a lot that after finally solving my knee problems I was given go-ahead to work out without grand limitations (jogging and jumping is restricted for me, but I hadn't done it for a long time before treatment for other heath issues - so not like I'll be missing them much). Watching me working out Stan says he understands why I love Norwegian cross-country skiers so much - I may be one of them as well )))

After almost eight months of reading I've finally finished Twilight. And having to spend three hours a day in the hospital for a month really helped. The breaks between treatment sessions were the only way to cope with this book. When I finished it the first thing I told Mom was "I can write such a book right now. Even in English!" (English is not my native language)
Years in the University trained me to reading from the beginning to the end every book and every series, so here I am reading other books from this saga. If Twilight is awful, New Moon is a tiny bit better. Now I'm reading Eclipse and it is turning to be in two tiny steps from awful )))

And I'm rewatching House M.D. again )) Although this time it's not every episode of every season but only those which I almost don't remember and my favourite ones. I'm already on season 3 :)

I've lost two more pounds. Total: about 10 pounds in two months - not so bad, especially for me...
After dealing with health issues trigged by summer heat (temperature above 86 F/30 C is killing me - imagine how I felt when it was 100 F/38 C every day for two months!) I'm finally fully back to my training routine. I'm feeling like a normal human again.
