New Semester

I can't believe that we're into another semester! It's going well so far, but it keeps me extremely busy. And Ryan has it worked out that he has plenty of time to study his spanish lessons. He'll be fluent in no time, I'm sure. He's also signed up lifeguarding and gets a good workout twice a week.

I have seven classes and I am feeling slightly overwhelmed, which I'm not sure why because I have enough time to get everything done. I have four gym classes which are amazing for getting me in shape. The first is my weight training class. Today we worked with heavy squat bars, medicine balls, and finished class with Alpines. (Doing a million stairs it seemed like.) I then went straight to Aerobics and we did kickboxing. I had a hard time keeping up because she was going so fast, but I still had loads of fun. I felt exhausted afterward, but I couldn't stop there, I had to get to Archery. My teacher thinks I'm really good. I would have to agree with him because I rarely missed the bullseye. If I was going to be in school longer I would take the next two classes. Ryan says he wants to get me a bow. I would certainly be okay with that. :) When lunch was over I went to my beginning piano class, which I thoroughly enjoy. It gives me a reason to start practicing again. Now that I'm not being forced to play, I am finding it quite relaxing.

Tomorrow I have volleyball with my friend Chris. It's been awhile since we've had one together, so this is really nice. He's always helping me improve my technique. With volleyball being one of my favorite sports, I'd like to actually be good at it. I hope we can get a volleyball net someday soon. Also on the agenda is church history which is fascinating to me - we're dealing with the apostasy right now - and I'm never board in that class. And last on the list is food science. I took that because I wanted to. I love Fridays because we get to mess with food. Last week we had an oatmeal cookie receipe where each partnership had to change one thing about the receipe. Mine was to remove half the margarine. Needless to say, it didn't turn out very good. But then, that's the point of the procedure.

Trying to get my daily schedule figured out has been a nightmare, but I think I'm starting to fall into a routine finally. Yea! Hopefully this week we'll both get a little more sleep!
