5K Update 3

Tomorrow is the big day!

I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. Actually, I am EXTREMELY nervous. I'm going through all of the worries and nervousness that I get before I do a presentation...times ten. I'm hoping my practice runs are good indicators of how well I'll do tomorrow. One negative is that I've been running with my ipod, but I won't be able to do that for the event tomorrow since Ipods aren't allowed. I guess I know enough song lyrics to just hum something or sing in my head...or, since it is the "Jingle Bell Run" and they'll be giving us bells to tie to our shoelaces, maybe I can make a song from my running pace.

Wish me luck! I'll try to post up some pictures (if I, or my parents who decided to come out tomorrow to support me, or how my mother put it, "you'll need someone to drive you home because you'll be so tired!", remember to take some pictures) with an update!

Ch ch ch changes

I have an essay due in class tonight. I have one more page to write, which isn't too bad considering I thought I had finished the essay yesterday, went to bed at 2am and woke up to edit it, only to realize that I was probably half asleep while I was writing it, which could explain the terrible grammar and incoherence evident throughout the entire thing. So I had to start all over.

And of course I'm still procrastinating and trying to find other ways to distract myself from writing the paper, so I'm updating my blog. I also just finished browsing through some of my old facebook photo albums. Somewhere between viewing old pictures from HS & college and new pictures from this year, I realized I've changed. Physically, mentally, emotionally, intellectually, socially. Some changes are more noticeable than others, but they're all there. I'm still not sure if I'm happy with all of them, but I guess I'm still in the process of finding out who "I" really am.

Not sure if there was a point to this entry, with signs pointing to a need to waste more time instead of being productive, but just felt like getting some of my thoughts out.
