Human Plow

Today I did some digging and shoveling. Quite a bit of it actually. I was basically a human plow. My sister had a soccer game today. She played well and even got an assist. In my book, which doesn't exist yet, that is just as good as scoring a goal if not better. Watching the game made me really want to play soccer. Being a girls under 19 game, today wasn't the day for that though.

Up Early

Today was the earliest I have woken up for quite some time. I did some yard work for my grandparents before pickleball. Perhaps waking up early helped my game because I played well today. I don't know if it is something I want to do on a regular basis though. It didn't help that much.

Doing Work

Today I did some work. Outside and in the kitchen. I baked some cookies. I can't remember the last time I baked something, which is rather sad. The cookies were really good though. I need to start baking more. I am making progress on finding a job, at least hopefully.

Relaxing Day

Today was a nice relaxing day spent with the family. Hopefully I can find a job or something to do this summer soon. Relaxing is fun, but only for so long.

Yard Work

Today I went running. I also did some yard work for my father at our house. It was a very nice day.

On the Road Again

Today I went running on my old route again. It was the first time in quite some time that I have ran that far. I also spent some more time cleaning my room, which sadly needs even more time.

Do Work

Today I worked. I still haven't found a job, but my father needed help at the house he was painting. I painted for him and also worked for a guy who was in charge of landscape. I used a weed-burner, which is basically a quasi flamethrower. It was fun, but I am exhausted.

Pickleballed Out

Today I rode my bike to pickleball. My game is still not nearly what it used to be, but I am improving. I rode my bike back home after 2.5 hours of pickleball and was basically wiped out for the next couple of hours.

One More Thing

Today I went running and did some more reading. I also emailed someone about a job I am hoping to get. That would be ideal.

Great Man

Today is Father's Day. There doesn't need to be a special day for me to know how special my father is. He is a great man and great example to me of what it is to be a man. He puts up with a lot from me. Thanks for everything Dad!

Work Out

Today I started a new book. I also went running. Now if I could just find some sort of work to do. Reading, running and relaxing is good, but working on top of all those things is even better.

Likes Bikes

Today I rode bikes with my little sister and brother. I actually rode my sister's bike and used her helmet. I think I may get a bike of my own. Historically I have enjoyed riding bikes and it would be nice to have one at college.

Great Game

Today I watched one of the best basketball games I have ever seen. It was a game seven of the NBA Finals, so it had great potential. The game didn't disappoint even if the result did. I almost always root for a game seven, not really a team, so I got my wish.

Room to Change

Today I started cleaning my room. It is difficult moving all my stuff from college back in to my old room with my other stuff. There is only so much room.

Read One

Today I finished reading my first book of the summer. I started it yesterday. I want to read a lot this summer. Hopefully I will find other stuff to do and preferably some sort of a job, but I'll read until I do.

Read and Run

Today I went running. It had been quite some time since I last ran due to having finals and poor weather. I also read quite a bit. It was nice to be able to read a book I wanted, not just a textbook.

Fishing Fun

Today I went fishing with my little sister. We each caught two fish. It had been quite some time since I last caught a fish. I think my lucky fishing cap helped.

Dorm Done

Today is probably the last day I will ever spend in a college dorm. I have enjoyed my two years living in the dorms and will miss them.

Packing Stuff

Today is my last full day at college for this school year. I will miss this place. Packing all my belongings is reminding me of the fun times I've had.

Free Time

Today it felt good to be done with finals. I didn't really know what to do with all my free time. As is custom, I got robbed by textbook buyback. I also started packing because it will be a long process.

Finish Line

Today I had one of the most difficult finals I have ever had. It also happened to be at 8:00am which didn't make it any easier. Right after I finished that final, I had my last final. There were eight potential final essay questions, my professor was going to pick four of them and we had to write on two of them. Unfortunately, my professor picked the four I didn't really want to write on. However, I am now done with finals and done with this school year. Sometimes it is more of a crawl across the finish line, but you still do just that, cross the finish line.

Study Time

Today I had my first final. It was also my easiest final. It is good to have one out of the way. It will be better when my last two tomorrow morning are out of the way. They aren't going to be easy. It is study time.

End Days

Today is the last Sunday of this school year. It makes me a bit sad. It doesn't help any that I have a lot of studying to do.

Liking Biking

Today my roommate and I were walking to a picnic/celebration at a park a couple miles from campus. On our way, we discovered two free bikes. It wasn't pretty, but they helped us get there faster. The picnic was a lot of fun with friends, food, football and a giant pinata. I even got a nice little sunburn.

Almost Over

Today I had my last class of this quarter and school year. It has gone by quickly. I'm not sure if I am ready for this year to be over. Perhaps hours of studying for finals will quickly change that.

Game Over

Today was my last day of my Economics class. I do have the final left, and it is going to be quite the final. I had my last psychology class yesterday which means I only have one last class tomorrow before all I have left for this year is finals. It is crazy.

Downpour

Today I finished my paper. It has been weighing me down for quite some time. While trying to print it this morning before class, page 13 would not print properly. It took four tries, a restart of the computer, several checks of the printer cables, the help of my roommate and a full 15 minutes to get the page to print properly. Thankfully, it eventually printed and I got it turned in.

There was quite the torrential downpour today and I was outside for quite an extended time in it and got a very thorough soaking. A friend of mine beat me in an epic overtime ping pong battle. It was the first time in two years and countless games that he had been able to do so.

Go Time

Today is my last full day to work on my essay. It has turned out to be quite the project and taken up quite a bit more time and effort than I thought or at least hoped. I suppose that is only to be expected with an essay that is worth 40% of my final grade for the class. There will be an over joyous celebration when I am done with this essay
