To sit under a tree and watch the blossoms fall like rain...

Life lately has been alot of personal reconstruction. Working out very, painstakingly, regularly has been rewarding but slow as far as results. I'm alot stronger and healthier than I was a month ago, and today marks the first time I'd ever jogged an entire lap around the track with absolutely no stopping. Sounds easy if you're healthy, but I'm not and it was intensely painful. I can breathe deeper now, and the pain can be rewarding, though I think I have tendonitis in my right arm. Hasn't stopped me yet. I've made some other pretty awesome landmarks like getting two sets of 10 dips down. And the beginnings of my first set of abs (the top ones, hehe). This is a long road that I can't quit. I'm not looking forward to running, but at the same time, I'll be happy when I can actually manage that. Johnathan has been the greatest supporter as a workout buddy and a friend. He pushes me hard, and I go farther than I would on my own. Dedication and perseverance are two qualities that are in great abundance with him. I'm hoping that I can one day be like that. He cheers me on when I can't do it, and when that can't get me there, I pray to go just a little farther. These have all been very small baby steps towards my greatest goal: to be healthy and be a better, more dedicated person. No one will notice yet, but hopefully there will be a noticeable change by the end of the semester. I don't give up and I won't give up this time.

Beyond the physical, there has also been alot of mental introspection lately...I'm not sure if its a good thing, but probably a necessary thing. My social life hasn't been very active lately, and so I've been looking into myself more for answers. I miss alot of my friends, and I hope to see them soon. I've become very much attached to my roommates. Johnathan and I have become very good friends and Lance and I have daily talks about random life things which keeps us close. Joey has been out and about lately and hasn't been too social lately.

I have alot to say...but at the same time, I don't know what to say.

I guess I just miss you guys. I hope to see you soon.
