I don't remember the last time I posted so I figure that means I am due. It is a cool day in San Diego where everyone, including me, is complaining that they can't believe it is March and it is "so cold"...I am spoiled and I am sure Norway will teach me just how much.
Today I had my second midterm of the semester. I did well but it is one of those classes where the teacher is only giving a test because he is forced to - he "doesn't believe in tests" <-- it is things like this that remind me I am going to school in CA. :) I have two more weeks until Spring Break and I can't wait. Just a couple more tests and presentations left to do before then.
Right now I am "napping", i.e. dosing in and out while watching Stargate (great movie) on TV, until I have a kickball game tonight. One of my MBA friends had the great idea to put together a kickball team and play in a local league this semester. We had our first game last week but I missed it so this will be my first game. Should be a fun time. A good way to take a break from studying for all of us.
I missed the kickball game last week because I had a weekend away from school starting with seeing Watchmen on Thursday night at midnight. We were in line for quite a while but it was nothing compared to The Dark Knight. The movie itself was ok but kind of disappointing - nowhere near as good as the book. And I totally fell asleep at the end - the movie is 3 hours long after all. We'll see how many more midnight showings I have left in me.
After Watchmen, I went up to LA for the weekend with Michelle to celebrate my friend Matthew's birthday. It was a weekend of IKEA and Target since he is re-decorating his apartment and we were helping. We did get to go to Disneyland on Monday (his actual birthday) for a few hours and ride a couple rides before we were too exhausted to do anymore.
I am hoping to catch up on sleep this weekend along with studying for my midterm next week. I am also starting to train for a half marathon again. I won't actually be in San Diego to run the race as it is in November but a couple of my friends are doing it so I am pretending that I will too because it is so much easier to stick with running if I have a training schedule.
I continue to watch American Idol and was quite proud of Adam this week for his performance and how well received it was by the judges. I am hoping I get to watch him for many more weeks.
All for now...dosing out is taking over...must nap...
ok - that kickball league sounds awesome.
you should find a race in norway to run - what an experience that would be!
