Life update
Let me just tell you. The first episode of Biggest Loser where Jillian returns and they show her on the back of one of the contestants while they ran across the beach....If she were strapped to my back I'd run as far as I could as long as she was attached. And then I might just *accidentally* fall...onto her..in the sand..
Haha.
Anyways...
I always look to people like her for inspiration/motivation. Abby Wambach was a big one for me. And I am just pleased to watch them kick ass in the world cup right now.
Other than all of this workout stuff, I haven't been doing much. I applied to the university here and will find out in November if I am accepted. Pretty sure I will be considering my GPA I currently have, but there's always that what if, you know? I waver between doing the sociology thing or special education. The college doesn't actually offer special education, so I guess that is out. But I don't want to up-root our life just to go to a school.
Kat and I are approaching our 4 year anniversary!! How crazy is that? I look at her every day and wonder if I am still in a dream. I have time off for sure at Christmas, so I will be going home for a week and a half. As per usual, we will be split during the holidays with our families and won't see each other for a bit. Last year I made it to Texas for two days after visiting my family and that was good. But it's too much to pay for this year.
My parents are going through a rough time right now. My Dad abruptly quit his job after 15+ years. The school administration finally cracked him and he gave them a big fuck you and walked out. Quite an impulse reaction considering he has an 8 year old and my mom to help support...but I am proud of him for doing it. They put too much on his shoulders (and by they I mean the heinous superintendent and the good-turned-evil principle he worked for...who by the way...I grew up with playing with her sons..she was our neighbor). They never acknowledged how hard he worked for them and how much he did for that school so it serves them right. It is their loss. He will get through it. I hope.
Haha.
