Friday Finisher 9/5/14

Published: Sep 5, 2014 · Modified: Jan 3, 2020 by Rebecca Pytell · This post may contain affiliate links.

So I really was going into this week optimistically, but that all went down hill slowly starting on Tuesday and the massive crash was on Wednesday. One of those days where everything that could go wrong did. It was bad...I cried basically the whole day. The one highlight was working out and lifting heavy weights. Working out makes me feel so much better. I feel like a new person afterwards. So I made sure I kept that going strong the rest of the week with some awesome sweat sessions (I may even share a workout with you on Monday! It has been MONTHS since I last did!).

Anyway, I am slowly starting to iron things out. The dining hall (I must have jinxed) because there was some major miscommunication with the staff that lead to some major mess-ups. Starbucks isn't taking GWorld right now. When I tried to pay and they denied me, I said forget it, but some kind government official looking woman told the cashier she would pay for my drink. Seriously, so embarrassing, but that lady was so kind. Some people are awesome. I can't handle a language. Spanish is horrible (the teacher only speaks Spanish) and the book I ordered online didn't come with the access code I need to sign up for the online portal for homework (thus I was so so so far behind, with no way to catch up). So I am now in the process of dropping that class and simply taking a health and wellness class (most likely something called Functional Fitness, just so I can get enough credits to be a full-time student). So now that I am not going to ever take a language, I have to switch from the Elliott School to the Colombian School of Arts and Sciences and change my major to (hopefully) Political Science and Public Policy. I think this will be much better for me and I will be meeting with advisers from that school later today to find out if this transfer can be made for the Spring semester.

I am just a bundle of nerves, emotions, sadness, and homesickness right now. I am trying to hard and that is all I can do. I'll let you know how everything turns out on Monday...until then...Happy Friday!

(Follow me on Pinterest – RebeccaGF666)

Single Serving Pumpkin Muffin. Let the pumpkin begin!

Spaghetti Squash with Roasted Sage, Hazelnut & Cauliflower Sauce. So elegant and so delicious!

Vegan Mushroom Lentil Burger. That plate just looks perfect. I miss my kitchen :'(

Sticky Sesame Salmon with Orange Sauce. I'm sad again because I miss making my own fish 🙁

Maple-Orange Roasted Chickpeas & Carrots (& Brown Rice Bowl). Perfect dinner bowl indeed!

Pumpkin, Apple, and Pecan Pie Waffles. Mommy, please send me my waffle maker 😉

A few things I loved about my week or am grateful for:

+ That wonderful day I had on Sunday.

+ The fact that it is National Breakfast AND National Potato Month.

+ A very special phone call on Tuesday that could possible change my life...I'll let you know if it pans out 😉

So tell me:

+ What do you do when you have those days where everything goes wrong?

+ What was your best workout of the week? Of the one you enjoyed the most? I think lifting this week was much more enjoyable than yoga for some reason. But that's okay! Our bodies always need something different!

    Ugh girl, I am sending so much love and happiness your way! My week wasn't great either, so we're in the same boat! Keep your chin up. Remember that you're the bee's knees, and that your track record for making it through bad weeks is currently 100%. I've got no time on my hands, yet I'm about to delve into this post and read all these links. One does not simply exit without visiting all these links! Thank you for such a lovely linkup. I'll keep you in my thoughts this week 🙂 xx

    Rebecca, all those feelings... I felt the same way in college. In fact, I feel like I was reading something I could have written 14 years ago. (Omg has it been that long!?) But anyway, I still remember the way I felt clear as day and I totally empathize with what you are dealing with right now. It DOES get easier. It isn't always easy, but it does get easier. Hang in there. You are a strong woman and you are going to kick some ass!

    Dang...Just know that you're not the only college student who has gone through lots of issues and problems like these. Whatever you do, just keep your head up because you're going places! My favorite saying for when I'm feeling down is "Chin up, buttercup!" 🙂 Thinking of you and hoping it only gets better from here for you! Plus, the health class will be fun. Sounds a lot more fun than a language class to a health nut like myself. 🙂

    Hey Rebecca, you've had a rough week...same here!!! I did the same thing with working out to cheer myself up. Literally had a near anxiety attack on Wednesday night and pulled myself up enough together to do a quick barre exercise in my room (gotta prepare for that Friday evening class). My heart goes out to you--I really hope you have a great, restorative, and somewhat self-indulgent weekend 😉

    So sorry you had such a rough week Rebecca. My children (high school senior and third year of college) had a rough start to the new school year as well. You're right there's nothing like a good workout to change your mind set. I always feel better after a good workout. Stay positive and have a wonderful weekend!

Celiac Disease is NOT a food allergy 🚫🍞 So Celiac Disease is NOT a food allergy 🚫🍞

So many people still confuse the two, but it’s an autoimmune disease, not an allergy. That means gluten doesn’t cause an immediate allergic reaction resulting in hives or swelling…it causes your immune system to attack your small intestine longterm. 

This distinction matters because:
👉 There’s no medication or quick fix
👉 The only treatment is a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet
👉 Mislabeling it as an “allergy” is scientifically incorrect. There is no such thing as a gluten allergy.

Swipe through to learn why the distinction is inportant and why accurate education and awareness is paramount. Let’s set the record straight and not mislabel our disease when speaking about it. 💛
