Don't lament over time poorly spent!

What will be your famous last words?

"Oops."

Did you order Girl Scout cookies this year?  What kind?

Uh, YES, I did. I will always love the simple shortbread cookies. They thrill me. D: I love them so much that I ate half the box the first few days. Then someone tried to finish them off before me, but I beat them to it. Hey, if it only comes once a year -- I don't care how much of them I eat! The trick is to eat so much of them until you get sick, then you won't even want them again until next year anyway.

This is the first time I've posted on Vox in ages, I know. I rearranged some stuff, added some stuff, and changed the layout. Hello, cute panda!

I think this place needs some more pictures. I should probably get on that sometime.

I said I would do this ages ago, but I'm finally doing it. Room makeover, before and after pics! Ready?

BEFORE:

This was all during the first week or so we moved in. I loved that wall color so much, but it made me depressed all the time, which prompted me to do a Happy Room Makeover. It went well together though, right? It might have worked in a bigger room, but a small dark space isn't healthy. My school bag is hanging on a nail that the previous room owner left in the wall. XD I love that bag to death, and I think the only reason I put it there was to keep it off the ground... Not that it makes much sense. That white chair in the background, I painted white myself. I slaved over that thing. That chair has been following me in my many rooms since I was born, so you can imagine how many times I've painted it. I can't get rid of it, so it holds my cute little pillows. The desk chair is ugly and I've since replaced it with a soft brown one that matches my new room.

AFTER:

It's happy girly room! I've never had a pink bedroom before in my life, so it was a huge shock when everything was done. A few things need to be changed eventually, like hanging that picture above my bed lower or getting a longer one. I'm also saving up for a bigger TV (just for better enjoyment of video games, of course!). And I don't have cable, so all the channels I get come from that ugly antenna on the side. Which explains why I haven't been watching much TV at all lately. My white chair holds pillows I've collected. One of the pillows (the white one that's probably hiding) was brought by my dad from Spain.

My bookcase is fairly boring. It's an old bookcase the old room owner left behind, so it's a bit banged up. The top shelf had the front part ripped off, so I put fancy heart tape on it to make it pretty. XD I don't have enough books to fill it up yet, so I have a few random things on there too. There's even my locker mirror from high school. It was always in my locker but I rarely used it -- my closest friend, on the other hand, used it all the time. So when we graduated I had her sign it, so it says "You are beautiful!" on it with her signature at the bottom.

Wow, what a long post. Thanks to everyone who comments! Unlike LJ, I guess Vox doesn't have a reply feature. So I have to thank you guys this way. But really, I appreciate everyone who takes the time to leave me a comment! <3

So I went to the gym today, just like I planned. I thought it would be miserable, but I actually had a lot of fun. I wish I would have brought my earphones though, because they had 15 TVs and a few music stations. But still, I had fun. I only went for 30 minutes on the treadmill to start off, since I haven't done any exercise for a year or two. So I speedwalked for almost two miles. I'm going to the gym everyday, so it should add up. I heard you're supposed to alternate muscle groups daily? I don't feel like using the weights because they're intimidating and I have no idea how to use them. Which reminds me that the treadmill was awesome. Maybe I haven't seen a treadmill since I was a kid, but those things had fans, neat graphics, slope options, time, miles, heart rate, everything. The first ten minutes or so I was too distracted by the pretty screen to think of anything else.

Anyway, I'm feeling good. I had to be careful in the first place because I'm anemic and it hasn't even been a month since I started taking the iron pills. I was fine during the workout, but afterwords I was dizzy so I had to stand still for a few minutes. It's a good thing I didn't push myself today. Right now I feel good, but I'm hungry for some reason. And I just ate.

I still don't know what I'm using this for. Maybe I can split my interests between this and my LJ? Maybe I can put personal things in one and fandoming in the another. Because I do enough of both for them each to fill up a journal.

Considering all the neat side bar options like books, movies, etc., maybe it should stay for personal. I'll have to think about it.

Anyway, this is just a first post. <3
