Today was supposed to be producive
I had plans to go hand out some applications In Silverdale today, but alas….even though my dad intalled a new battery for my car yesterday….it would not start! I guess the problem could be my accelerator…or else, something is draining the battery! So I decided to apply to some places online. I applied to Lowes, and then decided to apply to Borders, but with their online application you need two professional references and I realized I had not asked anyone yet if it would be okay to use them! So after a half hour already of filling most of it out, I had to close it without it saving (since I was stupid and didnt make a temporary login name and password ). I’ll just have start it again once I hear back from those who I e-mailed.
Not long after that My friend Mike came over! I was so glad he stopped by because I really wanted to go to the gym today! Since he had his car I figured we could go together!
He had gone with me last wednesday as well and I kicked his ass in running. It surprised me because Mike is a really muscular strong guy, but it looks like he needs to work on his cardio!
I am really proud of myself when it comes to running actually. In the beginning I was on the elliptical machine, then the tread mill, and then finally the track. At first, I could barely make it to a mile without my head pounding, my face getting completely red, and sweat pouring down. I even had to stop and walk sometimes.
But the more I ran, the easier it got! Now I can run a mile no problem! It feels almost effortless! I felt so out of shape before, but now after running I find that I dont have to catch my breath, I’m not sweating as much, and I no longer have to stop and take walking breaks! Today I ran a mile and three quarters and I still felt like I could keep going!
I told Mike he should keep coming with me so he can start getting back in shape too! We’ll see if he goes with me next time haha.
Today was also the day Jon was having a party. I told everyone I would be there, but did not expect my car to have problems. So I felt bad since I had to bail. They had all been drinking already so nobody could pick me up lol. I’m not too worried about it though because I get to see jon all the time, and Courtney doesn’t live that far away either!
If anything I need to find time to go visit Jennifer, Ali, and Liz! It’s been way too long I think. I miss those girls so much. Whenever Ali comes back home with Jonah they go to class and then leave and I feel like I miss my chance to really spend time with her. I hope that the next time they come home Ali and I can have some time to ourselves! I really dont want to grow apart from my friends. They are so important to me. I think maybe I should start using the phone more often because as much as i would rather talk in person, I just dont get to see them enough, so i need to start making more effort to check up on them and also let them know how im doing. ^_^
Alrighty well tomorrow I guess I’ll charge my car battery for a few hours and then bring it on in to Long Lake Auto and see what they can do for me. Then maybe my mom will let me borrow her car…hmm.
Time for bed! Goodnight diary!
Friends are really important I know what it’s like starting to lose touch with them… it’s really hard. Hey it sounds like your alternator could be going; my car died on me because my alternator was draining my battery maybe you should check that out. Good luck in your job hunt 🙂
