the bad news

I get woken up every morning at exactly 7:00 on the dot.

(which isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just a little strange.)

But I have done some investigating and discovered that I believe the reason for this is because my bed is right next to the window which is right next to a very busy street where early morning drivers have no qualms about using their horns.

even at seven in the morning.

oh, utah drivers....

After I woke up at exactly 7:00 on the dot, I decided to drag my roommate Kelsee out of bed to go running with me.

Seriously, with exercising, (and most other things) the buddy system is the way to go.

I didn't want to leave my nice, warm, soft bed to go run around in circles on a dumb track,

she didn't want to leave her nice, warm, soft bed to go run around circles on a dumb track,

but because we had both promised each other that we would go,

we did.

The running wasn't necessarily a bad thing either (once we got up and going)

But feeling like I was going to collapse in a heap on the way home from campus was not real fun.

My poor little legs were just plum worn out!

(and the clompy shoes i was wearing probably didn't help the situation)

(also-just a sidenote, the one teensy little mile that I ran took me sixteen minutes. SIXTEEN!

there's definitely room for improvement in that area of my life)

 I have a bad feeling i'm going to be "feeling the burn" tomorrow morning.

After collapsing on the couch after my long day of school I managed to make myself a grilled cheese sandwich(which happens to be my favorite lunch item at this moment in time)

and I also managed to burn it to a crisp.

It wasn't quite this dramatic, mainly because i was using a griddle instead of a toaster, but still.....it was pretty darn close

But being the tough woman I am (more accurately, the poor college student I am)

I ate it anyway.

and that's all.

(none of that was necessarily "bad news" just kinda funny stuff that resulted in a kinda funny little day.)

p.s.

I forget to mention (and to end on a "good news" note)

Yesterday I finished two physical science assignments thinking they were both due today.

But when I showed up to class,

only ONE was due today

meaning....

I'm actually ahead of the game!

(We'll see how long this lasts)

but for now, I'm feeling pretty dang good.
