So recently, I've been on this thing where I just feel the need to exercise every single day. I don't really know why, or what started it, it just kind of came at me and has stayed there ever since two weeks ago. I was bored, so I decided to go on a walk around campus one morning since I had finished all of my homework the previous night. I had a feeling I might want to sleep the following morning, so I just went ahead and completed everything. I ended up not sleeping that morning - I guess I was feeling restless - so I went on a walk, instead. I was curious about what the other side of campus looked like that I had never been to, so I took a look around as a carried my coffee-bloated stomach around the lake. It was such a nice, relaxing feeling, going on that walk. Even though I had to dodge a lot of geese poop, it was still completely worth it. So I started doing that and on days I didn't walk around, I would jump rope in the evenings. Now I'm just used to doing that. I must have exercised at least 4 times last week for at least half an hour a day, which isn't so bad. One day, I think I even did it for 45 minutes. I wasn't sure if it was doing anything for me, but I've found that I don't fall asleep in class like I used to. I seem to have more energy. And when I walk up flights of stairs, I'm not panting like it's the biggest deal ever when I reach the top. Now, it feels almost as if I practically floated up the stairs when I reach the top step because it feels as if it takes so little effort to get there, unlike before! So it's a really nice feeling. ^^ I've been trying to keep a pretty regular exercise routine because of that feeling. :)
Another thing I'd like to share is that two of my closest friends - the ones I wanted to go to Chicago with - are currently getting along, it seems! I really hope that they can steadily become really good friends, or something like that. It would make me really happy. ^^ I heard that they talked for 3 hours yesterday, and I was so surprised! I still don't know what triggered the conversation, but all I know is that it makes me so incredibly happy. I love them both. Maybe we can still go to Chicago, after all. If we have the money. ;)
