I got to register for next semester on Wednesday! I attached a photo of my schedule as of the moment. I have to finish my culinary arts cluster by the end of next semester, which is why I'm taking 3 classes related to that! I will likely take math as well, and in that case I've got to drop a 3 credit class, but maybe I'll put it off a little longer. We'll see- I"m really happy with my schedule at the moment.
So you know that Lazyman Ironman Triathalon I mentioned last time I posted and how I said that you have a month to complete it? Well I finished the 2.4 miles of swimming last Friday, the 26 miles of running on Monday, and then the 112 miles of biking on Tuesday! It was great, but just a warning- if you ever decide to bike 36.5 miles at once, be prepared for the feeling that your legs forgot how to walk as soon as you're done! I feel so strong, and actually really impressed that I was able to do it, and to finish so quickly. It took me about 10 days to complete (homework does have to be done occasionally) but I was the 7th person participating to finish. Laurel and Lydia went and finished swimming while I finished biking so they finished 8th and 10th. Laurel was determined to beat someone and did (the guy she wanted to beat ended up coming in 9th.) It was a lot of fun in some strange way, but I'm planning to do it again come February.
On Sunday Lydia and I made a gluten free dinner for our friend, Steven. We often get together with a group for dinner on Sunday nights, but they aren't always gluten free meals, and so Lydia came up with the idea to make dinner for him. It was fun, and I got to use some of my GF flours- which I should probably use more often.
Last week I went to see a production called Ezekial: Son of Man. It was written by members of our music staff and performed by them, a large percussion ensemble, and 2 choirs. It was really neat, they did a great job telling the story of Ezekial through song and sound effects.

yeah I don't know what to title this one...

I'm really not very good at posting every week! Oh well. It started snowing finally. It started yesterday evening and hasn't stopped completely quite yet, it was kind of fun to walk to the gym in fresh snow this morning, but REALLY cold. I've been doing the Lazyman Ironman Triathalon that our school does with Laurel and Lydia. So swimming in the morning and then biking or running in the evening. It's hard, especially to fit it in around school (cause I hear that's why I'm up here), but it feels so good!
I didn't do anything for Halloween last week, well actually I did. I didn't feel 100% so I slept pretty much all day. I went to my one class bright and early before the sun, and then went back to bed for the rest of the day. It was great, I think I've fit at least one day like that into every semester now.
On Friday ( El Día de los Muertos) all the Halloween candy goes on sale!!! So I went with Laurel, Lydia, Charlotte, Brittany, Stephan, and Lane to a bunch of different stores to get the discounted sugar and then we proceeded to watch movies that we could make fun of and eat as much of the candy as we could handle. We didn't quite finish it, so we repeated the same activity on Saturday.
Sunday we (the same group of people + Heather, Jordan, and Jennifer) went to Lane's apartment and made potstickers. He served his mission in Japan and so we used a recipe that he'd received from one of his investigators. They were pretty great!
I'm finally done with midterms!!! I'm so glad :) I took the last 2 yesterday, now just got to make sure I'm prepared further in advance for finals than I felt I was for midterms. It doesn't help that I had tests spread across 3-4 weeks, I don't even remember how long it was.
I got to Skype my family on Sunday, and that was definitely one of the highlights of my week. Living off on my own is fun and all, but I do miss my family quite a bit :)
