moral of the story: don't buy gummy vitamins

ugh i am such a procrastinator. about 3 weeks ago, as i was falling asleep, i was half thinking half dreaming about living with matt and how different it will be. i had a pretty good idea for a blog post related to it but i was too lazy to get my computer and type it up so i was like i'll just do it tomorrow. cut to now...

actually, i think i might remember the gist of it. something about how matt and i have very different lifestyles/habits, and how it will be a good thing for me to live with him in most ways. (because i am such a disorganized, procrastinating, impulsive mess)

here are some of the ways in which living with matt will be good for me:
he: goes to the gym everyday.  i: go 3ish times a week, unless i have hw, or i have to study, or i want to go to dinner, or i forget my gym clothes, or i'm just too darn lazy. you get where this is going...
he: cooks a healthy dinner with the appropriate portions of protein, veggies, and carbs.  i: come home starving and too impatient to cook anything but a lean cuisine or microwave leftovers from who knows how long ago.
he: studies a little everyday, even if the exam isn't for weeks away.  i: save it all until the week before and end up staying at the library until at least midnight cramming and freaking out and spending tons of money on food delivery to the brary
he: goes to sleep at a reasonable hour.  i: waste my time writing blog posts such as this one, watch hulu, facebook, anything but productive things.

for these reasons, i am very much looking forward to living with him. oh, and you know, cuz he's a pretty awesome person too. and it will be nice seeing him more than once a week.

HOWEVER. one thing is going to be very difficult. matt keeps a lot of snacks around (oreos, junior mints, twix, dorritos, oatmeal cream pies, etc.). i love snacks. in fact, i love them so much that i can't buy them. because i have no self control and will literally finish a bag of chips in 1 sitting. i've tried keeping snacks in my car so that i don't sit around the apartment eating. this doesn't really work tho, because when i drive to school, i shovel as much as i can in my mouth and end up finishing the package in 1 or 2 days anyways. (( speaking of delicious things in my car--gummy vitamins are the best/worst ever. do you know how hard it is to only eat 2 of these amazing gummies?? sometimes i sneak 3. i risk vitamin overdose to enjoy a gummy for 10 seconds. what is wrong with me. )) anyways, since matt is a normal human being, he is able to keep these things and only eat a couple oreos at a time and stop. i'm pretty sure we are going to need a locked cabinet that only matt has the key for. because these snacks will negate all my hard work following matt to the gym and having him make me healthy dinners!
