i hate that the college search is all about money. i got a green mountain scholarship from st. mike's and suddenly, it popped into the running next to UVM of places i applied to which i might, reasonably, be able to attend school this fall. i then proceeded to fly out to WI to check out beloit and beg for money. well, old belwah came through, and all of the sudden my parents WANT me to go live in WI. who'da thunk? i am completely perplexed, and since i don't plan on getting into/paying the bill for any of the other three schools i have applied to, all there is to do now is wait and see if UVM actually lets me in. scary. eight days. i'll shut up now.
and what's more, there is the fact that vacation is over half way over and i have actually been productive. i did laundry today (in a large enough quantity that should make you readers ooh and ahh but since that's lame, detailing numbers of laundry loads that i waited around for, well, i just won't). and i went for a run. i ran from my house to the town line out past the junction and back and it felt REALLY good. i can't wait to go again tomorrow. but i could really use a running buddy. i am generally a lone runner, but i like running with teams on trails in the park, and right now i could go for the team encouragement.
speaking of teams, i didn't race in state's and i don't really want to blog about it, but i will take this opportunity to push the fact that trapp's is GORWEGOUS and the MHS team skiied like champs! i want to go back and ski around before the break is over. but now that ski team is over, all i can think about is lax season and getting in shape to kick some ass. it is officially time to get off the couch. it was fourty degrees today; that is completely runnable weather.when the thermometer hits fifty it's going to be a freakin mardi gras in montpelier. and now i'll go dream about running.
much love. a haircut. a day warm enough to turn down the heat and open the windows. jules.
