Things that Fly!

Breathing cool air quickly

I just got back from a run. It took me 16 minutes to run 4 kilometers. I'm going to make it my goal to run a 5 minute mile before winter comes. In addition to the fact that I'm trying to bulk up about 15lbs. I really enjoy working out. I used to look at it as such a chore-- mainly because I had so many other things going on. It's hard to go to school and work and stay in shape. But now that I'm just working, cultivating my free time has been quite a pleasure. I read the newspaper in the mornings. I cook sometimes and my general living area is much cleaner than usual. I leisurely browse the library, and enjoy reading before bed. I like how sometimes I get the feeling that I can't put my guitar down, but that there is no urgency to do so. I should hang out with friends more, but honestly I have a pretty good time just hanging out with myself. And after 8 months of hanging out with people, personal time is pretty awesome. I hope I can take up a couple more hobbies. I wouldn't mind taking a couple photography courses or getting back into Tae Kwon Do--I'd like to teach a couple times a week....But I don't want to ruin the great time I'm having right now.
