a holla at my girl

This blog is dedicated to my roommate and best friend, Mika. We met my junior year of high school when I first moved to Tyler and although she claims that I was antisocial and we had nothing to talk about, I remember thinking that she was someone I instantly got along with. Anyway, the rest is history. Ever since I've gotten my iPhone I've creepily taken pictures of Mika doing a variety of things in our daily lives. She loves it. Here's to you Mika. Thanks for being such a great friend to me.

back to school

Classes have begun full speed ahead. I think my classes are going to be good ones this semester. I'm taking: cognitive psychology, intro to sociology, nutrition, and I have an internship. My internship is similar to the program I worked with this summer, only on a bigger scale. For my other classes I'm anticipating a lot of reading and writing. While I'm still in the mode of wanting to just hang out and not really do any work, I am excited to get started once again and begin a schedule. I've found my life is a lot more productive when I actually have something to do...otherwise, I would sit around and watch Bravo all day.

runnin', runnin' and runnin', runnin'

So, I've decided I want to become a runner. I'm really terrible and not at all consistent right now, but I've decided to use this semester to really build up my running ability. The funny thing about running is that although I can't go super fast or far at this point, I always still enjoy it afterward. The trouble is bringing myself to do it in the first place. I think I've hated running for so much of my life, that it's really hard for me to believe I enjoy it more now. Anyway, this blog post was actually more for me than anyone else. I'm hoping that going back to look at my own words might be an encouragement to me.
