Sleeping In

Well, despite setting my alarm to 615 am I decided to sleep in and skip out on a early run before class - too cold! (or too wimpy!)
I tried something new today...Tuna Salad! As I raced from the b school to work at the arena, I stopped at Au Bon Pain to pick up my usual sack lunch but when I saw the tuna salad garden salad I had the urge to try it. Not bad! I actually really liked it, and my coworkers were jealous of how good it looked.
After I get off work, I have a french lab, run with Julia and headed over to my cousin's apartment for help on an assignment for my horrid ITM class. While I am out, I might as well get dinner somewhere right? Haha it's possible I might treat myself to something on the way back to campus for a night full of homework!

Things to look forward to this weekend...DG Anchor Splash, yoga, grocery shopping (don't know if I really need anything but always fun to look around)...and midterm studying woohoo

Burr!

While the sky is clear and sunny, I am freezing my butt off over here! Woke up early to study for an exam, but made some oatmeal and coffee first to get me going. Although I do prefer stove top oats, I have been getting used to my microwave oats that aren't really that bad - but multiple packets are necessary!!
Test went okay, I was rushed at the end which I hate because I know I overlooked some things but it's done and over with.
For lunch I grabbed a salad at the bschool - the ladies at the cafe always comment on how crazy my salads are - spinach, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, cucumbers, walnuts, hummus with mustard dressing. I think it is yummo!
Dreading my ITM class but good news....I might have an apartment for next year! Moolah apartments offered us a place today and I am going to check it out with my friends to see if we should accept this offer. Exciting!
Campus Kitchens will take up the rest of my day and looking forward to hw and tv time tonight.

Catch ya later

fitting in a long run

As a student in college, sometimes it is hard to fit in a long run during my busy schedule. If I can wake up early, I prefer to run earlier in the morning before class. Today I had class from 8 until 1045, and right after I just headed straight to my room to change into my running clothes, which always gets you in the running mode.
Was out the door by 1115 and back at 1230, just in time for a big lunch before my jammed pack afternoon!
Right now I feel a little sick after inhaling my lunch in less than 5 minutes but so happy I got a run in! 7 miles in forest park while it is sunny - gives me a jolt of energy to get things done!

Hello World

Alright, I won't lie. This is my fourth attempt at a blog and I have written four "first" posts and it seems silly to pretend to write another. Hello! Welcome to my blog, I have become a blog junkie and hopefully can keep this going long enough to become one of them! More to come soon
