sorry i haven't posted in a while. it's been busy - yikes!

i spent the weekend at home - i was watching the dogs. Saturday morning, I took Harley out on a run. The dog that was never able to even walk on a leash without freaking out, went on a run without being scared at all. i was very proud of him.

so - besides that - i took 2 tests on monday. i have a test almost every week from now until finals.

most exciting news - karen is almost due to have the baby! saturday Karen and i painted the primer on the dresser she and Rajeev are going to use for the nursery. we also talked about how they should arrange the nursery. Mom finished sewing the crib bumper and dust ruffle and the curtains. SO cute! i can't wait!!!

let's see - i can't think of anything else to say. see, this is why i haven't been blogging. my brain has been crammed full of information. we'll see if i have anything to say another day.

the breadsticks....

no good.

instead of 17 breaksticks, i only finished 8 :-( horrible.
but i did only have 20 minutes to finish an entree and the breadsticks.

(and it was at fazoli's)

so yea. that's it. my time restriction killed me.
oh, and first floor one....again

the breadstick eating contest....

is today.

i'm going to take all.
think i can push the record (that is my record) of 17??

just wait and see.

i must be athletic and didn't know it.

being here at TU, i am required to take the general fitness class, Fit for Life, and 2 other fitness classes. Well last semester I took horsemanship, which is a fitness class. And now, this semester I am taking a new fitness class.

I am taking Functional Fitness. It is made up of about 24 girls, most of them are students, but there are a few staff members. So far, we have been focusing on our breathing and stretching. (not a bad fitness class if you ask me!)

well....after class on wednesday a fellow classmate asked me this question...

"are you a dancer?"

she said i look like one! what!?!? i'm not a dancer. i'm not athletic....but it did make me chuckle. but then later i realized something when another girl told me (i had told her the story) that that means she must have been watching me at some point in during class....and i must have looked like i knew what i was doing!

oh how life has changed since the fall. then i could barely run a 12 minute mile. in fact, after running one mile (in about 12 1/2 minutes) i sat on the ground and rested for about 5 minutes before heading up to my room. and now...today. i ran 3...not one...but THREE, 12 minute miles in a row. and...i look like a dancer. i must be turning into someone athletic!

to begin - a quote from a random someone "can anyone get spacebook?"

and then - do you ever have those days when you just want to dream or create something? i seem to have those days quite often lately. today it is raining and gloomy out, but it hasn't seemed to bother me just yet. hopefully i can find some time tonight to make something in some way or another.

so to end....today has been good. nothing special has happened, but then again nothing bad either. i hope it stays this way for just a while.
