Going to the Gym/ College

Going to the gym- Why do people go the the gym? Is it becasue they lack the ability to use the "great outdoors" as a resource? or is it becasue they like the fancy machines. I personally would rather excersize on my own. Running or biking down a lone country road is so much more appealing.
I am not a very social person so gping to the gym to socialize would be weird for me. Plus, the idea of socializing at a gym seems strange. I mean honestly you go to the gym in sweats to get sweaty, why in g-ds name would you want to talk to other people. My other reason for not going to the gym is that i am very self- concious. I would much rather bike down a road, alone, than run on a treadmill in a gym.

College- Why is it that when you plan to go to college all your parents expect you to do is study? I mean honestly any person between the ages of 16- and 30 no that the three most important things that happen in college are as follows. one, being the most important, beer/ parting. two, football/hockey(for the new england colleges). and three, class. I have a 8:00 AM to 9:15 AM class the a 4 and a 1/2 half break then another class. I am going to only be doing two things the majority of the time. Excersizing and sleeping...

becasue i will have been up all night studying of course.(thats for you mom)

Effulgence- The state of being bright and radiant; splendor; brilliance.

Ugh 4 hour trail rides sure put you out from writing blogs. Yesterday was a lazy summer day i awoke to a father telling me to do some chores becasue we have to clean the house for guest that will be staying for graduation. So i watched some Sex and the City then began to sweep and vacum the main floor. I was going to mop but i said i would do it the next day but then my dad decided to stay home today and work on the porch( its a walk out screen porch) and his stuff was trailing into the main floor so i couldn't.

But after sweeping and vacuming yesterday i got the sudden urge to horseback ride. kinda like a craving. Sometimes you have a huge craving for chocolate and you will stop at nothing until you find the right type of chocolate that suits your craving...oh shit now i want Lindnt. Ok that was off subject. Anyways i got a craving to ride. Plus i needed patrol hours for my Volunteer Patrol Unit so i grabbed Lightning my trust Energizer Battery of a horse and treked out to Bluff Point. It was a quit monday so i was able to stretch his legs out. Then i came home watched mroe sex and the City, ate some sausuge. felt bad about eating the sausage and excersized.

Today was a very lazy day. I went by the bank then, then over to the Christmas Tree Shop to get some $3 8/10 frames for some photos i took that are going into a silent Auction art benifit show, then watched WANTED which is fricken amazing! and then watched Appolossa which was like any old western flick. I then ate more sausage, some fruit( hey im trying to be healthy) and now im typing this and then taking a bath.

That was the longest run- on sentence of my life! but anyways my definition at the top has no real meaning until this Friday when i will be graduating!! so until tomorrow.......

I am avering that today i have come to relize that public school is officially over. It all started when i brought my dog to Bluff Point. I was sitting on the beach after Gus had drenched me in water when i had to chase after him when he ran off with the ball. I was sitting down trying to dry off my very wet jeans when i realized i had the last day of public school on friday. There was this weird realization that come this fall im not going back to school but off to college. And for me going off to college is liek going off to boarding school, literlly. Im not going to be one of those kids who can come home on her mini breaks or the weekends to see her folks. I will be a 12 hour drive away from home. So i am expecting the first two to three weeks of college will be terrible.

Today was rather dull. I woke up to rain meaning my 9 AM lesson i was giving was canceled. Then i went back to sleep. Woke up ate disgusting maple and brown sugar weight watchers oatmeal and yummy hot chocolate and then did nothing for the rest of the day except go to Bluff Point, oh and by gus a new toy. I think its called a Chuck It! its a long stick with a cup at the end that you place the ball in and it allows you to throw the ball further. Gus went 30-40Ft out with that toy.

Toaday i avered that in 2 months 4 days i will be starting down a new path.

Redivivus - Living again; brought back to life; revived; restored.

I will soon be living in a form of redivivus when I attend college this fall. I will be revived from public school restraint. Be able to speak my mind without many reprocusions and feel restored becasue i am starting a new jorney.

Today was rather dull. I slept in late. woke to a mother telling me how it is my duty to clean horses pens when we have already agreed that the horses pens are cleaned by her and the barn is to be cleaned by me. Supposedly i don't do a good enough job at the barn. sigh, 2 months and 5 days till i don't have to deal with this shit.

Yesterday i went in for an interview at the Mysitc Marina. Its one of the larger marinas on the Mystic River. I was interviewed for a job as a weekend office assistant. Its basiclly liek runnign a hotel. People come in on there rigs (these are the people who live on there boats for the whole summer or the whole year) i check them in and take down there information, they pay for the night/s they are staying. I also make resorvations for people as well as sell ice and souviners to tourist coming. Basiclyy the easiest and most boring job there is but hell i get $10 and hour to work on the weekends from 9-4. Im not complaining, just give me a pile of sudokus and a book and ill be good for the day.

Another job i have aquired is babysitting. For this i am babysitting 1 1/2 days a week to a girl who is 9 i beleive. like any young girl she is horse crazy so a day on the farm being indulged in horse related activities seemed easy enough. For this i am to be payed $8 and hour for 8-9 hours. the 1/2 day part is me picking her up from camp and indulging her for an hour then giving her a formal hour lesson on horseback.

I also give lessons to other people and i figured if i save all the money from my weekend job i can then use it in college to buy neccesities without relying on my parents to provide. If my math is right i will have earned from my weekend job $960. This way i can have money for college and use the money from babysitting and lessons on stuff over the summer.

Now you may be speculating me right now but i can stretch money like no other.

The Times are uh changing (6/12/09)

Yes i have not written in a while. But i now believe it is human nature to be lazy if not motivated. And since i am doing this in my own free time without motivation I am bound to be lazy. Yesterday, was interesting i was awarded honor cords in science and English. honor cords are given when you achieve outstanding Academic excellence in a subject. I received honor cords in English and Science because i took 4 classes in each subject and got A's in three out of four.

I have taken 6 credits of science so i was bound to get one in there and you are required to take 4 English credits and since i am so good in English i was bound to get one. The funny thing is though that when i looked to see what i was getting i only saw my name under science. The people who designed the pamphlets forgot to put all the names receiving English cords in it so i had no idea that i was getting one in that.

Today was my last day of school. The last day of school for my past 11 years has been exciting and fun. we eat lots of food sign up for next years courses and live up the summer. When your a senior that all changes. Now I'm not the crying type but when i left school today i felt somewhat saddened. I have this feeling in my gut like i get right before i dive off the blocks at a swim meet. Now maybe i am diving into a new beginning but holy shit it is gonna be crazy! I won't write a senior reflection until after i walk for graduation next week. but for now.... DON'T FUCKING CRY!!!!
