And has brought with it life, new things, and opportunities.
I looked at my trusty calendar and realized that there are only 5 weeks of school left this semester before summer!
So what do I want to accomplish this summer/ the rest of this school year?
1- 4.00 GPA. I'm close to on track. I need to pull through in genetics and chem lab, but I'm close.
2- Find a real job. Tutoring at the library is good for now, but when summer comes I am actually going to need money.
and
3- Train.
As you may have noticed, I added some new fun stuff from mydailymile onto this blog. I discovered it on a friends blog and liked it a lot, so I stole some of it.
So what am I training for? It's called Ironman 70.3, a triathlon in Branson, MO this September.
Triathlons have three parts, a swim, bike, then a run. Ironman 70.3 (also called a Half Ironman, or HIM) is a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile bike, and then 13.1 miles running.
This is my ultimate goal for this year. I have some other races (5ks, half marathons, sprint triathlons, etc) along the way to keep me motivated and to check my progress.
Normally this blog has no rhyme, reason, or even frequent post pattern. Trust me right now when I say it won't be getting better anytime soon :)
Since I am so busy, I don't have much time to blog.
Since I don't blog very often, I write about what's currently happening (usually).
And finally, since I am usually doing lots of stuff, there tends to be no consistency in my posts.
So if I post about training, college, politics, or whatever, I guess we all can just roll with it, right?
After all, this blog is mine, and doesn't that mean I just post what I want?
Haha...perhaps. With that being said, I'm off to the pool.
Adios
Hey, that dailymile stuff looks really familiar.... :P
