Chelsea: Blog 4

Over the past few days I've learned that its hard to give something up that's part of your daily routine. In one of my other posts I talked a bit about how its hard for me to stop running to my makeup bag every morning because I would always make sure there was time for me to put on makeup. Surprisingly its been hard to go without the hall lights during school. I figured that it would be no big deal but I never thought about how dark the hall would be on a gloomy day or when its really nice out and you just come back in from being outside and you cant see because its so dark. little things like that kind of get annoying but I'm just thankful that the classrooms aren't that dark.
As you know, one of my rules for the next two weeks was to eat less meat. It's been very hard because there is only one vegetarian in my family. what I've learned though is that without someone backing you up, it wont happen. my family doesn't exactly understand why I wanted to do this so they haven't taken any steps in supporting me. The next week is going to be very hard, especially on the nights I work because I don't get an actual break so I can go eat dinner. I only eat if there is time between serving food and doing dishes. If I get that time then i just grab what ever there is to eat.
