Hey bloggers or readers! Just wanted to say hi. My bum is sitting in bed not feeling so hot and I'm bored. I've wrote some mini reports and spent plenty of time on the computer getting contact numbers for school districts in the spring for practicum. This is wearing on me that is for sure. I'm stressing about not getting a placement or not getting a good placement--i need to learn that things will fall in place if I put the effort in and to not stress so much about it. ... someday maybe someday..??
Our little mini-vaca was great. Wedding was beautiful. Bride was beautiful although I did not know her. They did something awesome for their reception- it was in a children's museum and they didn't do a formal sit down dinner rather they did snacks and apps! I liked it a lot. So congrats to Jake and Jill!
The later part of the week we just chilled at Daniel's mom's house. It was soooo relaxing. I had a wonderful time and got lots and lots of sleep. It was nice to be back in a small town again- it is amazing how much I destress when I don't have to think about traffic, spending most of my day driving and what not.
It kind of stinks cause I have a wonderful job but the drive has beat me down over the last 8 months. I have decided that for the next 8 months or so school has to be my primary priority. I've just got to finish and get myself in a steady pace.
so what else is new. I went out on the MOB group ride on sunday and had fun. Funny, being in a chunk of bikes on the side of the road is similar to being in a chunk of traffic on the road--whoah Daniel is going to shoot me when he reads that statement. I actually had a ton of fun and met some really cool chicks but it is obvious i need to get comfortable in a group. Now, this may be because I'm new to this whole cycling thing anyway but also because i like to go fast when i want to go fast and slow when i want to go slow (haha i'm so selfish) and when your stuck in the middle of a group that makes it just a twinge more difficult. ... oh well. I might be riding with some girls in boulder this weekend, if... i'm feeling better--which hopefully i can be by then. I'm going to play in a lax league on Sunday nights as well for the remainder of our stay in denver then it is adios to the springs!
Anyway, must nap now feeling like poo.... then up to do some more school work then i'm desperately going to try to make it to class this evening.
oh by the way the picture is of Daniel's neice and nephews. We cared animal faces in pumpkins while we were there, it was fun and they are soooooooooooooooo cute!
