Lent

Yup, you read that right. Though, I'm sure that's not exactly what you expected to hear from me!

It's Friday, and honestly, I am not at all sad to see this week go. Between a farewell, being sick, a midterm, an injury and just crappy behavior by people in general, this week has not been my favorite.

But it also brought with it something that's new. I had started contemplating giving something up for Lent - not because I'm Catholic, but because I wanted to see if I could actually do it.

At this point, I've chosen my own rules for the 40 days of Lent. Basically, I've chosen to give up French Fries (my go to carb) and will be following the Friday rules of no meat (except fish...this means sushi...yes, this is how my brain works).

It's not about religion for me. It's more about willpower and figuring out if I can do it.

And there was another suggestion given when I asked about what to give up was to make sure to give something. I have no doubt that I will do that, but it is now in my mind to make sure that I do that.

Let's see how the next 38 days or so go...
