Lent

[ADPiViolets]

I tried to give up cursing last year, but it didn't work so well. I found that there were certain times when things would suddenly happen out of no-where that made me swear.
(ex. A car almost ran into me. I yelled, "SHIT!")

So that didn't work.

So this year, I decided to give up pop (soda, to all you non-Michiganders). My boyfriend who is not Catholic but plans to convert before we get married is giving up the same thing. A friend of mine told me she lose 12 pounds because she stopped drinking pop. I don't know if she exaggerated or not, but I guess we'll see what happens.
