A little of this, a little of that

Not much time, so a few short and sweet thoughts from this week.

13 miles is a long way to run. But the nagging knee pain, cramps, nausea, and inability to move all day is NOTHING compared to runners high. Nothing. Honestly. Same brain centers that ecstasy stimulates. Nice work God!

23 years of perfect vision. 24, not so much. Unfortunately…

High expectations will always be better than low expectations, even if they are unmet for a while. High expectations require faith. “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.” –Proverbs 13:11 “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” –Hebrews 11:1 “May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.” –Psalm 20:4

Practice board exams, not too scary and turned out fine. Real boards, $1000 test, a bit more scary.

Wellness project = athletic shoes. Went shoe shopping 3 times for school. A girl’s dream! And, the Finishline salesman was thoroughly impressed that I knew the back-story of Adidas and Puma. Wikipedia it. Also, Vibram toe shoes and Sketchers Rockers are not quite the spectacle as advertised.

Friends drop everything when needed. No. matter. what. :) “A friend loves at all times…” –Proverbs 17:17

Chris Tomlin = great praise and worship. Worth it, even if it ends up being a bunch of friends + a bunch of high school kids. Free tickets helped. “Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere;” –Psalm 84:10

Multiple friends called this week in freak-out moments because I’m the ‘calm’ one. Not sure if that is a compliment or not.

If Mike Modano retires, I might cry.

House is such a thought provoking show. However, his cane is in the wrong hand, and it drives me insane.

1 Large Movie Popcorn + butter has the same amount of fat as 8 big macs. Yes, EIGHT. Gross. This might have ruined my day.

Duke is still the National Champion, Incase you have forgotten. ;)
