Studying my life away

That's right, I'm still at it. While the 2nd years and the rest of the Notre Dame students are on Spring Break, I'm still here studying... I have to tell you, its a really great time. Of course, the only thing that makes it all ok is that I know that next week, while they're all in classes and studying, I know that I'll be on break. At least that's what I've been telling myself so that I'll keep studying.

I have found plenty of ways to keep myself from studying though. For example, I spent about a half an hour earlier looking at 5K races in the area this spring. We're trying to get some people together from my class to run one. And I guess it was kind of my idea so its up to me to find out all the details. Such as, are there actually any 5K's around (there are--I spent a half hour looking for them), and when are they. So that was fun. In addition, I have this problem where I get really distracted from studying by checking my email about every 3 minutes or so. Its more of an addiction than anything, but at least I know that I'll never miss that important email (or the one from Facebook telling me that I'm the #7 "Most trustworthy" person in my friends list--whatever that means).

Finally, I for one am glad that the election is still going on. In fact, I'm hoping that it will still be going on when it comes time for Indiana's primary. I think I might even register as a Democrat.
