I did not get enough done today (don’t I say that every day?!?!) so I’ll keep this post simple. I did accomplish a walk to the farmer’s market/co-op for some local goodies.
And a trip to Wegman’s to complete the groceries. We had a hot bar coupon so the husband and I got lunch.
Can you guess which side of that container is mine?
I filled up on an assortment of veggies,
with sesame tofu and chicken.
Not even an hour after eating I felt empty. The feeling was so bad I ended up walking to get a (ginormous) slice of bbq chicken pizza.
Post-pizza I had a Double Fudge Brownie mini ice-cream.
And then I was FULL. I ate my 2nd lunch around 3:00 but I ended up calling it dinner because I haven’t gotten hungry again!
I am finding the transition back to school to be much harder than I expected; and I didn’t think it would be easy! I think part of the issue is that I didn’t just quit my job and go to school, but rather worker bee –> unemployed –> student. Do you have any advice to help me become a student again????

I am a student and I work at a Big Insurance Company in the area part-time and I find it hard to get everything done for school aswell, because when I get home from work I am just too tired and then I need to do well in school too!! I have found the key to being successful is doing the school work as soon as class is over. Then if I dont have time as soon as I am done with class, I try to get it done before the weekend because I know that I will NOT have time over the weekend!! Good Luck and I am sure that you are going to get straight A’s!! 🙂
Your farmer’s market purchases look so good! Nothing better than fresh produce. ANd I always hated being a student, I wish I had some tips for you! Good luck!
Hi Emily! It can be really tough transitioning to becoming a student again. I have been going to school part time and working full time for about 2 years (almost done, thank goodness), and what has really helped me has been scheduling specific time out of the house to work on school work. Otherwise, I found that if I didn’t hold myself to it, I would just find other things to do. Good luck! It’ll get easier as time goes on.
Pay attention during class, study really hard.
thats how i felt today after lunch. i had to have a second lunch. its not even like a hunger its like a strong empty aching… ur body sort of takes over.. bread usually does the trick- so the pizza wasent a bad choice 😉
im transitioning back to student too and its been about 3.5 years since .. urgh anxiety and nervousness and all that comes with.. all i can think of is to take it slow and easy and try to stay organized 🙂
