I love this one because it's awk and perfect :)
She has now moved out of our apartment and is student teaching in Austin. I know now where I'll be next year and I'm already planning my move to Fort Worth this summer. Reality has hit.
I'm ready to graduate. You have no idea. I think I had enough fun last semester to carry over into the spring. All I want to do now is relax. I think I'm at that weird transition stage where I'm crossing over into a new chapter of my life. I don't quite fit in with either the "college" stereotype anymore or the "grown-up live on your own in a city" stereotype quite yet. I graduate in less than 4 months and start school in 6 months. I have an even lighter load this semester...or so it appears now. I arranged my schedule so that I only have Tuesday/Thursday classes and have MWF off. So what am I going to do with all this spare time??
My initial instincts wanted me to search for another fun class to take/look for a part time job. I decided against this however after looking at my schedule starting July. I'm going to make time for myself for once and not feel bad about it :)
Two things that I LOVE to do but haven't had time for in college are: reading and cooking. I think I'm going to actually make a dent in my book list and have fun with some recipes these next few months! I would be training for either another triathlon or half marathon too but I have a temporary knee injury and well it's not letting me run at the moment :( But that's ok because I've done all that before so now to make time for all those other neglected things.
Currently reading: Plain Truth - Jodi Piccoult
Such a good book and I can't put it down! I want to read a few more of her books because I like how she addresses a controversial issue today in each one. I like to see many points of view on hot topics.
Next recipe: Pot Roast with parsnip mashed potatoes
Pot roast intimidates me mainly because of all the good pot roast I have had in my lifetime. I have also had really tough and dry ones. Claire Robinson on FN fixed it the other day and I thought..."I could do that!". So I'm going to attempt my first one. I think the key to a really good recipe is time and love :) I will keep you posted.
Current workout: Nike Women's Training App for iPhone
My sister found this one night, tried a couple of workouts and said it was fantastic! She was sore for days. So naturally I downloaded it and started doing a few of them. Let me tell you...it's like having a personal trainer the whole time. It's awesome! I get bored with the same routine so this app is perfect because it has tons of different 15-45 min. workouts you can try. It has three levels and both cardio and strength training. I've been doing mostly the strength training because of my knee and I can feel stronger already. You should try it!
I'll let you know my progress on my to-do list :)
