Post-Turkey bloging

Ahhh no midterms this week or assignments due... it should be a laid back week for a change. The only thing I’ll have to annoy me this week is radians, I HATE radians. No more time consuming manual drawing to do either, we just started AutoCAD, which I already have experience with. I even got a legal copy of AutoCAD 2010 on my home PC; they let students download special temporary copies for free now. The new version moved everything around though so I can’t find anything anymore.

That’s all that’s new and exciting with school; school tends to sound a bit dull unless you’re there you self and often dull even if you are. I feel like I haven’t been doing much these days and it’s kind of bumming me out. I’ve been sitting on my butt too much. I think this is partly because one of my best friends moved to Ireland for 4+ years and because of my new place/roommates. Living at my old place I was often out and about doing things with my current roommates. Now that we all live together I think it kind of makes it harder to do things, probably just because our attitude, we need to try and be a bit more motivated to do things.

Now that I have school and the lightness of my wallet to worry about I can’t seem to go off and do things as easily. Plus a few of the people I’d like to see more are also really busy and our schedules clash. I think I’m just coming out of low spot now though and I see clear peaks ahead. I am getting restless in class from inactivity during the days, I think I may have even gained a little bit of weight. I went to the school gym for the first time today and worked out for an hour. It felt great, I got back to the running I’ve been neglecting and did all my pushups/situps for the day along with some other exercises. I am completely physically exhausted, I went pretty hard and it’s been awhile. I will definitely feel it tomorrow or the next day. It feels great sitting here sore and tired though, I’m almost sleepy from exercise, I love it.

I’m going to make it part of my regular routine to go to the gym on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On Tuesday I’m done at noon so I can go there after and still make it home early and on Thursdays I have a two hour spare I can make use of. So I’ll be at kung fu Monday, Wednesday, Friday and the gym on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I don’t have an elliptical machine at home anymore so I’ve got a lot of kilometres to cover when I’m there. I’m not sure if I mentioned this yet or not but I have signed on for the next UBBT. So I have another year fun, hard work and excellence ahead of me.
