Running In Circles 365

ramblings about healthy eating, running, and whatever else I fancy

School is pretty much officially out! All I have to do is show up for my refund tomorrow and drop off some cookies to a few of my favorite teachers. Omg it feels so amazing to be done!

On a sadder note, I am seriously going to miss some of my senior friends. Graduation was today, and I know I won’t see one of them ever again. Whaaaa! Oh well, life goes on…

Happy summer!!

Lately, my runs have been crap. My legs always feel tired, for no apparent treason. I mean, I’m sure as hell eating enough…that’s painfully obvious. I’m not happy with my body at the moment. At all.

Also, school is just dragging out to the bitter end. Technically, tomorrow is the last day of school (Thursday is yearbook/graduation day, Friday is refund day (or shall I say, arrive and stay for half an hour, get your refund and go home)). BUT I have a huge English final tomorrow that’s stressing me out, and my IOC on Thursday, and I have to play with orchestra at graduation. Also tomorrow I have an audition for Utah Youth Symphony, so aslkfgnaklffngarkljtgndijfnfvsjiffngiejfnfg. That’s how I feel right now. Back to being frazzled and gray. I just wish that there would be some relief to the end of the year, but there isn’t any.

Why am I so unhappy? Why can’t I run and feel normal again? Why, why, why.

Sorry for the pessimism. I just feel like I’m drowning.

I’m going even though I wasn’t really part of the team this season. Oh well. I have a new dress that I’m excited to wear, although I’m pretty bloated and it won’t go away! Arg. Shouldn’t have eaten that delicious bean salad yesterday…

Anywho, Trinity College in Conneticut sent me this elaborate recruiting magazine thing today. I had to laugh at the letter the admissions dean sent though- there were THREE typos that spell check would’ve easily caught. Sorry, Trinity College, but you are on the east coast, too close to too many relatives, and not Colorado College. And your dean of admissions doesn’t bother to use spell check.

Y’all are going down this Thursday! Down, down, down! I just thought I’d let you know that I’ve been studying pretty hard for you, and I am prepared for anything you decide to throw at me.

So. Bring. It. On. I dare you. Cuz ya know what? Emily Dickinson, Shakespeare, and Flannery O’Conner have nothing on me! I am prepared. I am going to continue to study until I know everything inside and out. Your 8 minute commentary can’t scare me. Neither can your backup, the 10 minute guided discussion. Or the blackmail that you’re 15% of my diploma grade. Ha, ha, ha! I laugh in your face. This Thursday, I am gonna kill ya. IOC, you’re toast.

Yours truly,
Liz
