Lenten Sacrifice

Ok So i admit, the last time I went to church was for my little brothers graduation (last may)... And the time before that was for MY graduation from HS (May 2001!!)... And the four years IN high school the only church going i did was school related (except for confirmation!!) So roughly, i havent been to an actual Mass since i was 14? super! (see everyone in hell?? lol) Every year tho, i do TRY to keep up with Lent. This year i feel like i have been a terrible sinner, so i am trying EXTRA hard with Lent. So far so good. No meat on Ash Wednesday, no meat today. I even gave something up. Which i have not done since HS and even then i dont think i ever really kept up, i would just make it up in my religion journal (omg i really am going to hell!) So this year, i quit gossip blogs. My job can be really slow sometimes and the first thing i always do is start surfing the gossip sites. I sometimes feel like i know more gossip about celebs than people i actually know... No one thinks i will be able to keep this up for a whole 40 days. Now i am out to prove all of you wrong!! I really think this will make me a better person. Now when i am bored i can read about news and current events and not about Miley and the Jonas brothers! Its good for me!! (i will admit that i am jones'in to read about Tom Bradys wedding!! but i can do this!!!) So 2 and a half days down, 37.5 to go! I have faith that for once in 25 years i will keep my sacrifice AND remain meatless on fridays!!
Wish me luck!!
