LOL, Or: O HOD, why don’t she write?
And it’s not because I don’t care. It’s just that I don’t think about really sitting down to write anything wherein involves a life that’s not too terribly fascinating. So, at the very least, let me slap down everything that has happened recently.
First and foremost, I finished my first quarter of college and managed to keep my GPA over a 3.4, which is good enough in my book. Apparently, it’s also good enough by the school’s book because they sent me an honor’s ist certificate, kind of like getting the honor roll in 3rd grade. :3 This was both embaressing and yet strangely gratifying.
Secondly, my roommate has recently become acquainted with a fellow who’s supposedly a black-belt in Shotokan. Last weekend, he proceeded to come over and started to show her some of the beginning moves of it. Thus, she’s learning how to do this. On top of that, her other friend(Hi, Gelf!) is taking her to the gym 3 times a week now, because said friend has a membership there and can bring one friend for free.
Which is all well and good, of course, but it also means that one friend is one friend and I obviously can’t go to the gym with them. Let’s back up a bit and point out that a few weeks ago, my roommate also managed to buy one of those Gazelle machines. Yanno, Tony Little? Yea, one of those things. So I figure if her ass is going to go to the gym three times a week then, by God, while she’s gone, I’ll work out on the Gazelle.
First night I tried it, I did 2 miles in 40mins. Last night, they went again, so I did it again. 2 miles in 35mins. Tonight, they’re going again, so I suppose I’ll be doing another two miles. Now, she said that her and Gelf are going to be going Mon., Wed., and Fri., but this week they can’t go Fri., so they’ll be going tonight instead.
We’ll see how this pans out. I don’t know how long the Shotokan thing will go on, but hopefully, the gym thing will be a very constant staple.
Let’s see, what else..? Oh, oh. So a few weeks ago, I’m on the phone with my mother and she’s like, “:D We’re going to Alaska!” Apparently, that’s been my stepdad’s dream trip for ages now. He’d planned on doing it once that he retired – which he did a few years ago.
:3 Apparently, it’s now time to go to Alaska!
