Luis is sick

So my apartment is littered with these:

Why am I awake?!

I hate getting old. I have been awake since 7:30 am tossing and turning. 7:30 am is my normal wake up time during the week. It sucks. Sleeping is one of my favorite pastimes. If I could nap on my lunch, I would. Maybe when I’m CEO of my Fortune 500 company, I’ll mandate a nap hour.

So in the meantime, I will continue to toss and turn and listen to Luis snore. There’s your shout out babe!

Finals and Papers and Projects, oh my!

There are officially two more weeks of school and I have several things to do before I can close out the semester.

This week, I have two presentations to give. I’m not super worried about them but I’d just like them to be over.

Next week, I have two take home finals. I’m not concerned about those either but again, I’d just like it to be done.

In January, I’m taking an intersession class so I can take my capstone from February-May. After that, I WILL BE DONE. I totally believe graduate school is worth the time and money, I just wish I didn’t have to be a full time student while I was a full time worker.

In other news, in typical Tierra fashion I decided to apply to USC’s PhD program on a whim. I still have to submit GRE scores, which is code for, I still need to take the GRE. I highly doubt I will get in but if I do, it’s another check mark on the bucket list.

No goal in mind

Today Luis asked me what my goal was. He was referring to our running. Normally I’m a goal oriented person but I actually hate running. I’m only doing it because I can tolerate it. And it’s not half bad. But I have just a short attention span, and it’s becoming increasingly worse, that I get bored running.

Well we are running an 8k in March so we have to start upping the anty. Today we ran about 4 miles. My phone logged 4.12 while his logged 3.90. Why the discrepancy you ask? We haven’t figured it out. But with Luis being the dominant Hispanic male that he is, naturally my phone is wrong. Whatever.

I’m excited to do another 5k at the end of the month with family and friends.

Like I said, I don’t have an end goal. I’m not training for a marathon. It’s just something I’m doing.
