Rough Drafting

Most of today was spent working on my take-home essay final. I was able to finish the rough draft. It isn't due until Thursday at 4:00pm, but the sooner I finish it the sooner I am done with the class. That being said, it is important that I do a good job on it, so it can't be rushed. Tonight, I went on a nice walk with my roommate down to the bay while the sun was setting. It was nice to take a break from working on/preparing for finals.

Summer Starting Stopped

Today it quickly sunk in how much work I have to do before this school year is over. It may feel like summer break started already, but it definitely hasn't. I need to continue to study for my final Tuesday and start my take home essay due Thursday that the teacher gave us today.

Finally Finals

Today I didn't have any classes. With my spare time, I went jogging. I also finally started studying for finals. It needed to be done.

Done and Run

Today was my last day of classes of the school year. It feels good to be done, but now I need to start thinking about finals. It might not having been the time I was shooting for, but I got a new personal record in the mile this afternoon. I also jogged down to the bay to witness a beautiful Bellingham sunset over the bay tonight.

Early in the Morning

Today I only had my 8:00am jogging class It would have been nice to skip it and sleep in, but I had to turn in my jogging journal. I am actually glad that I went, because I ended up running the fastest mile of my life. I wasn't planning on setting any records, or even trying to at such an hour. It just happened. Perhaps next time I want to run a fast mile I should wake up early and run on little sleep.

Great Day

Today started out with a great racquetball game. Thankfully, there were no face shots today, given or received. In my Western Europe class, we concluded our government coalition formation simulation. Even though my party was excluded from the eventual government, it was fun to watch the bargaining process. This afternoon, my bible study group had an end of the year picnic at a park. It was a great time, with a great group of guys with great food. It put the dining hall food to shame. Overall, today was great.

Run Man

Today I decided to go running. I plan to run a half marathon this summer, so I wanted to see how far I could go. I didn't really have set destination, distance or time in mind. I ended up running to a sewage lagoon, which was about a 15 mile round trip in two hours and 15 minutes. I was very thirsty, and near resorting to questionable measure to get some much needed water.
