Day 1 of my Last Semester

Oh my goodness, it's only 1:30 and it's already been a really long day. How?? Well let me explain. Or complain. It all depends on how you view it I suppose. 

Okay, so first of all I'm like super tired because I had race Saturday (the Mesabi East invite) and then it was Robin's last day in the states so we stayed up so so late hanging out. Well Sunday morning we had to get up really early to get him to the airport, after which I had to get back to town, run home, and go to mysl. Mysl stands for Minnesota Youth Ski League. So I was teaching little kids ski skills. It was a lot of fun. Minus the fact that I forgot gloves and it was really cold out and my hands were numb well into the night... Well then Sunday night I could not fall asleep. I was so tired but no matter what I could not sleep. Until around 3 am that is. Then I had to get up at 6. 
Now why did I have to get up at 6? Cause I had an early meeting with Rick! Yes, we had to figure out my class schedule because there was a mix up and I wound up. It being signed up for classes at all. Well we fixed it and I went to go get my books. 
After waiting in line for a literal eternity I get up there, I give her my schedule and she gets my books. End of story, right? Wrong. Turns out, I wasn't on the list of pseo students. I wasn't even an actual student. I wound hunting a lady named Connie, who told me that I didn't turn in my state form. Which I did turn in back in November. As eloquently as possible I informed her of this. Turns out I did turn it in! She just hadn't seen it. So I got put on the list and had to go wait in line again to get my books.
Well from there I went to my new classes. First up was abnormal psychology, then creative writing, and lastly cal 1.
After calc I raced to Marlo's office to beg to be put into her human growth and development class, even though it was full. Thankfully she agreed, and told me class was at 2. In one hour. So I ran to Rick's  office where I waited in line to tell him I got in. After some paperwork and computer stuff he printed off my new schedule, stamped it, and sent me off in search of my new books.
Which two and half eternitys of line waiting to get. But I got them without a hitch this time. Now I have five minutes left before my new class and it feels good to just sit. Now if only I had some food... Apparently skittles and water aren't very filling!

Okay, well I'm off to go learn stuff! Well read a syllabus... Thanks for reading!! I'll try to post more often!! Especially since I now have it on my iPod, I should post more!!

Timberman Triathlon

Okay, this one really is going to be short. I don't really have much to say besides what's about to be said. So....read on! First off do you know what a triathlon is? Or what the Timberman triathlon is? You don't? Let me explain then. A triathlon is where you swim, bike, and run. You're timed in each event and your transition time (how long it takes you to go from one event to the next) also counts against you. The Timberman is a triathlon held in Grand Rapids MN. It has a long course (mile swim, 26.2 mile bike, and a 10K run. But don't quote me on the bike) and a sprint course (1/3 mile swim, 13.1 mile bike, and a 5K run, but don't quote me on the bike again). It's a fun event put on every year and draws a nice crowd of people from every age and fitness level. I did the short course and this is how it went: Swim The swim was by far my worst event. I did it in my sports bra and spandex shorts (last year I did it in normal shorts and nearly lost them!...

Dear Asthma,

I would prefer to tell you this face-to-face, but seeing as you have no face and live within my own body, I see no chance of that happening anytime soon. Therefore it is with an ache in my chest that I write this to you. I am sorry, but we are different places in life. I will always remember the times we had together. I mean, who could forget the times you've had me doubled over, coughing as my lungs attempt to dispel you from my body causing you to become caught and tangled within my throat so I can no longer take in a breath. There's also the times where you, in anger with my lungs for trying to get rid of you, wrap your arms around my chest and squeeze with all your might. Just as you've done today. I would love to keep you here with me, but we really are in separate places in this life. I know, it sounds cliche and yet it rings true. You've changed since we first met. You now want to take the easy way in life. To sit back and watch all the good times ...

Mother's Day

So today is Mother's Day, but my mom just went back to work. (She's been on medical leave because of a stress fracture in her leg. She couldn't wait to get back to work and so on Thursday when she got the go ahead, she got herself scheduled for 12 hour days all weekend. It's like she was never here again.) So instead if the usual breakfast in bed, which she winds up throwing a fit about anyways, I've cleaned the house. That doesn't sound like much, but the boys are such pigs that the house is always nasty. My mom is like OCD, and can't stand it. So coming home to a clean house will be much appreciated. If it stays clean that is. Not even 5 minutes after I finished cleaning the living room/dining room area it was somewhat messy. Squirt had dumped out the entire sock bag all over the living room, there were a pair of dirty shoes on the arm of the couch belonging to my 21 yr old brother Josh who should know better by now and a jacket on the ground. Normally I...
