Biding my Time with New Hobbies

Since it has been over a week and I have yet to hear a response, I've found that finding new hobbies is a helpful way to distract from the fact that I HAVEN'T heard from Disney yet. While having mono has helped me sleep through the majority of my waiting period, there are other things I've done to help speed things along.

Sims 3 came out with a new expansion (insert comment about Emily being a huge dork here...) and I was VERY excited to find that I can now adjust the boob size of my female sims. The game is now complete! I'm shocked it took as long as it did into the series to give players the ability to give the women of SimCity huge tatas. Now all we need is the ability to make short sims and to give my family a golden retriever and we'll be all set!

More interestingly, I've decided to learn how to box... at least until I leave for Florida. I know what ya'll are thinking, petite little Emily boxing? It isn't possible, and I'm going to get my ass kicked. Well think again, folks, because believe it or not, I'm actually pretty quick... which is helpful. And yeah, I'm small, but I'd be fighting people my own size/weight, so being petite won't be a disadvantage. At this point, the most I'm doing is throwing a few jabs at my significant other's face (he's a good sport... and a professional MMA fighter... so he can take it) and finding out what it feels like to take a punch. Let me tell you, it isn't a cup o'tea! Taking even a light jab to the forehead hurts like a sun of a gun, and I'm not going to lie... it's fun. Adrenaline makes EVERYTHING feel good, including David's very hard, powerful knuckles. I'm not sure if this is going to go anywhere, but it makes for a fun beginning of a new chapter in my life. And who knows... maybe you'll see Emily Jorgenson in the 2012 women's boxing olympic events (an event for the first time in history, by the way) and I can take all ya'll out for a drink with the money I'd make from sponsorship. In the more likely event that I get K.O.ed immediately after stepping foot in the ring... I'll gladly take visitors at the hospital while I recooperate from traumatic head injuries!

Tomorrow starts a whole new week... week #2!! Hopefully Disney is feeling generous and I'll find a nice, think envelope in my mailbox in the upcoming couple of days. Keep your fingers crossed! If not... there's only five weeks until the end part of my waiting time... that's me trying to look on the bright side.

Keep your hands up, kids!
