    Beachbody? (P90X, RevAbs, Chalean, Insanity)

    I don't plan on being a model, but I do want to be in the 130 pound range and reasonably fit for my age. Once I reach these goals, I plan to start the maintenance workouts to maintain that. I know diet is a huge factor in losing weight because different types of foods break down differently...

    What Are You Reading Right now?

    Another option is if you have a tablet and Internet access, you can check out e-books for free. They remain on your device for 30-45 days and after a certain time, they just wipe themselves from your tablet. These are usually provided as a free service through a library system.

    Anyone watch Dr. Who?

    I haven't gotten to the weeping angels yet. However, the Daleks are creepy enough in their cheesy yet warped little way.

    How many deafies here know languages besides English and ASL?

    I know one phrase in Italian, only because I have an Italian professor. True Italian, she was born and raised in Italy and came to the dates for her doctoral work. The phrase? Boungiorno.

    Bahaha, I can probably send him some homemade Twinkies as a gesture of goodwill. :lol:

    Dennis Rodman

    Funny thing is Kim Jong-un is well aware of modern technology. He was raised in a Swiss boarding school in Europe. He was given a Western education. He keeps it away from his citizens to maintain control. As long as he maintains control, he maintains power. He was groomed to the succession of...

    House chore tips...

    Well I don't have a dog, but I can probably just lick the plates myself for the same effect. :lol:

    Veganism

    If you really want to become a vegan, its best to do a slow transition and learn as much about it as possible because you still need the same vitamins in your body that are commonly found in meat and meat products.

    How many of you have attempted a Master's Program?

    I am hoping to get my cumulative GPA up to a 3.5 or above and hope I get offered a fellowship. If not, grad school will have to be put on hold until my undergrad loans get paid off.

    Classes and Movies and No SUBTITLES?!

    My university does the same. However due to the inclement weather, my meeting with DS has been postponed to the first week of classes. No big deal, most of professors know I can't hear by now anyway. I am not sure what the Canadian laws are on Disability Services, but surely they are required to...

    Least favorite errand to do?

    When its on sale and you buy it in bulk, its cheaper than trying to buy a bunch of the smaller packages.

    Linguistics and ASL

    Ok, I'm taking a linguistics course this semester taught by one of my favorite professors. Because linguistics is the study of languages, I am sure that ASL will come up at least once. So while I am thinking about it, what are your thoughts on the common comparisons between ASL and English...

    Been gone too far long. Oh and I have 390 notifications. Oops.

    WTF? No, I didn't bother reading all of the notifications. Most of them were people who liked my posts from the Jurassic period. Besides I thought matajan left, no?

    Least favorite errand to do?

    Yes, I have bought 20 pounds of ground beef when it was on sale. I portioned it out into ziploc bags and froze it. That lasted a long time. Sometimes I manage to get deer meat given to me to supplement my store-bought meats.

    Beachbody? (P90X, RevAbs, Chalean, Insanity)

    I'm just doing RevAbs for now. I had to get off the fitness wagon after a bad injury to my foot last year that required me to wear one of those awful boots. I'm doing it a little bit at a time to get my fitness level up so that by the time I start p90x, I can really push my limits and burn...

    Least favorite errand to do?

    I have a tendency to buy canned vegetables such as green beans, corn, etc. Every once in a great while we will buy the canned fruit. I prefer fresh fruit though because canned fruit is usually packed in that overly sweet syrup. It just ruins the fruit for me.

    A Thread About Absolutely Nothing! Part III

    Yes ma'am. We got up around 8:00, cooked a small breakfast, then spent the morning watching TV shows on Netflix. It's a perfect day for me to get a jump on the readings for my literature classes.
