If I ever have a kid...

Moles

So it's been a while...I tend to blog more when I have exams coming up :) That way I feel mildly productive, but am still technically procrastinating. So it's November. Funny how time flies whether you're having fun or not, in this case...not. This year has been, well, it's certainly been. You know those games at the arcade with the moles? The ones where you have the hammer and you smack down the mole that pops up, and before you can smack down one fully another one pops up? And you're in a state of extreme panic and anticipation the entire minute of the game? And you can't think or look at your score, you just keep moving. That's how I felt this semester. Before I can hit one mole down, another one pops up. Only it doesn't last 60 seconds, it's constant and it's lasted 3 months. As soon as I get over and take care of one mole, another one burrows up. Between having the worst Triathlon season of my life- full of disappointments, injuries, quittin...

Rain Rain

You know, maybe before I had the absolute genius idea of moving to the Eastcoast, where some of the harshest weather conditions in America abide, I would at least have the grain of common sense to buy a water proof jacket. For the past 3 days it has been nothing but teardrops from heaven - tons and tons of droplets. I have gone through every single winter/fall/spring coat I have, and halfway through every single of my walks I get that unpleasant dampness that goes straight to my bones in this frigid Boston weather. And I had the other awesome idea of getting rid of my rain boots after Freshman year - when Boston conveniently had a dry spell. Don't worry, it was saving up for the past 2 years when it all came down on me. Now my Mizunos are soaked through too. I feel a cold coming through.
Too busy to blog! I'll get back when I have a minute... In the mean time my days look like this: Triathlon, eat, class, class, class, eat, triathlon, work, lab, sleep, eat, triathlon, study, study, study... And my weekends look like this: Travel, Triathlon, Travel, Sleep, Triathlon, Study, Study Study... Livin' the good life =) love love love, me

Heat of Summer is Wearing Off

It's pretty hard to train when you sweat the mere THOUGHT of being outside. I dont' think Boston has ever been so hot - and that includes this summer's heat wave. I was going to go for a short ride today, just to get Mac in the fresh air and test out my new bike computer, but I couldn't. I ended up going to the Comm Ave fair with B and Davis, then going back to the suite and napping/uploading pics/hanging out with my roomie. And even then I was exhausted at the end of the day. I finally cleared out the last bits of my stuff in my old apartment, which was sad because I had so many awesome memories there this summer. I absolutely loved that apartment...but can I just say I TRULY appreciate my HUGE, air conditioned, bug and mouse free, clean, brand new, gorgeous suite. Oh and Chris' apartment, which has basically become my apartment - I love his kitchen. Signing off for now, time to watch a movie and SLEEP love love love, me

First Race Weekend

Sorry for the no blogging - I know my faithful readers are heartbroken it's been so long since I've written - HA. I think my mom and sister are the only people who read this on a regular basis...but my followers are *slowly* growing! Honestly, wish I had more to say though! I moved in a couple days ago into STUVI2 - a.may.zing. My room is huge, my random roommate, Nicole, is adorable, it has a/c, an incredible view, it's right next to fitrec and the dining hall..it's perfect. It's also next door to Chris' building - oh the convenience. I'm absolutely in love. From moving out of my old apartment I completely downsized. I gave away SO much old stuff/clothes/junk to goodwill. I'm really working on living simply. So I donated a bunch of old posters and stuff that really just crowd my space. I kept the important stuff, but it's nice having so little to move around. I feel like a boy. The past couple days have been awesome, though. Filled with catching up ...
