Highlights of 2010
1. Graduating law school. Graduating from law school was one of those things that I never doubted would happen, but seemed impossible at the same time. I got good grades, I was very active extracurricularly (I know, not a word)—but, I had never had to work so hard for something in my life. It was incredibly draining, emotionally and physically. I remember crying at my celebratory graduation...

Sales = Bad News
Banana Republic having a sale on almost all of their clothes, plus an additional 40% was a total disaster for me and my wallet this afternoon.
(I am super excited about my purchases though!!!!!)

Big Bird
So I had a crazy/scary bird sighting experience on my way to the gym today. The bird seen below was flying over Broadway, directly at my head. At first I thought it was some sort of evil hybrid pigeon, but when I saw it’s wingspan I knew it was definitely a bird of the predatory nature. I’m thinking it’s some sort of weird eagle? Maybe a hawk? No idea what exactly it is…but...

HOLIDAY EATING TIPS
1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing about Holiday spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they’re serving rum balls. 2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly….

Jennifer's Book List
For all my law school/lawyer friends (and even those totally unrelated to the field of law), I highly recommend the romantic comedy book Practice Makes Perfect.
I’m an avid reader, and while I do appreciate a classic now and then, my favorite genre of books is chick-lit (they might be cliche…but I can’t get enough of them!)....

Fail.
So today I got dressed in my gym clothes…left my apartment with intentions to go to the gym…and went to the supermarket instead…oops.
On a positive note, my new jacket is very warm!

Still working out!
I was really proud of myself after meeting my goal of going to the gym 4 times last week. So what better way to start this week than by going to the gym on Monday? Waiting until Wednesday! I wish I already went Monday and Tuesday so that my weekend would be free, but for some reason I’m having trouble getting myself to the gym on Mondays and Tuesdays.
Either way, I went back to the gym and...

Day 3...
…of exercise! I’m glad to see myself back on track! Yesterday was a tough one…the first bike I went on clicked, the second bike squeaked…so I gave up on the bike and hit the elliptical. Then my ipod died. And the TV wasn’t working. Today, however, was a great workout! I stepped up my game on the treadmill and did some weights after.
Now I’m being healthy eating...
Last night
I went to the gym (yay!!). Then, I ate pizza (boo). The boyfriend came over (yay!!!). We booked our New Years Eve getaway (yay!!!!). And, we watched Sherlock Holmes…which was, as Ryan put it, “mediocre at best.”

Success!
The gym was a success! I came, I saw, I conquered! After, I made a quick appearance at Loehmann’s, where I snagged a really cheap, cute longchamp bag! Score for Jen. Or maybe I should just be wishing myself a Happy Chanukah?
I lit my menorah, ate a huge salad and am relaxing with a glass of wine and some TV.

Exercise Update!
A few weeks ago, I had been VERY enthusiastic about exercise. I went to the gym four days that week, and felt really proud of myself…but since then I’ve been losing steam. The week after, I only went three times, and last week, only TWO times!
So far it’s Wednesday, and I haven’t been to the gym yet this week. I’m going to go today, and literally force myself to meet...

Little things...

4. Turkey and cheddar sandwiches.
